Based on what? Cases we've identified through testing.Latest CDC estimates from experts are about 25% asymptomatic (and I think that is throughout the course of the infection).

The test I referenced above says 100%.Trivia question for the antibody test enthralled:
Let's say I tested Covid-19 antigen positive 10 days ago and I feel better now but I still have a sore throat and I am still coughing
What is the likelihood of a positive antibody test ? Why ?
Yes, say someone in a family gets sick with COVID-19. You then test the entire family. You use that data to determine the number of asymptomatic cases.Based on what? Cases we've identified through testing.
That's flat out false and an invalid argument.
The US FDA approved HCQ on scant scientific evidence. They literally did it on purely political reasons. I've read the French studies, to be blunt, they are *sugar*. If we were not in the middle of a pandemic the journal editors would have NEVER accepted them and sent them back to the researchers for "lack of significant evidence."
I've done journal article reviews, I've had articles published. But I'm sure you will tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about, again.

Debate Ends Over Chloroquine as France Officially Sanctions Usage
Allow me to quote the first paragraph:
"Days after beginning a large scale double blinded trial, the so called gold standard, France has now reached the conclusion chloroquine is recommended to treat corona."
The point I have been making is that after days of running a large, double-blind study of the effects of chloroquine in treating Covid-19, France decided to open the floodgates and allow the use of this treatment for Covid-19. You may argue that the timing is simply coincidence, I would argue that preliminary results in the large, double-blind study suggested that the treatment showed sufficient promise to pursue. We are allowed to disagree on this point.
@bkp_duke , I have never dismissed your viewpoints. They are indeed representative of medical professionals who insist on very solid, completed studies without issues before accepting the treatment. Your views are important and I hope you keep making them.
What I'm asking is that you don't dismiss data that I post as being nothing more than "hopeful". I think the data so far suggests more promise than simply being well-wishing. All that I am asking is that you don't try to silence my views, you just need to continue speaking your own views so that this forum can see a balance of the views and members can decide for themselves what to believe.
You are completely misrepresenting what's going on. Why not quote what the French government is actually saying?Let me repost this link:

Even if in the passage of time, demographic statisticians establish the mortality rate of CV-19 substantially below the circa 1% talked of by most, you need to explain how you think a V-Shaped recovery will materialise given the hydrogen bombs that have already been detonated in the world‘s labour markets and to corporate cashflow.

Or another example, Korea tested an entire 200,000 person church so they probably have a pretty good idea of the number of true asymptomatic cases are and they say it's about 30%.
Nice. You might want to try grouping states into regions. See this for idea, List of regions of the United States - Wikipedia. The census regions are quite reasonable hierarchical.Here's a graph of the Positives per million versus Days since PPM exceeded 50 for the top 20 states (data up to 04/01):

The legend on the right is the order based on the latest PPM. Data is from covidtracking.com's states-daily.csv.
In addition, the EU hasn't sanctioned its use outside of clinical trials, except for existing approved uses.You are completely misrepresenting what's going on. Why not quote what the French government is actually saying?
With appropriate protective gear, testing and sanitary practices, I don't see why Tesla Fremont couldn't re-open sooner. As you may be hinting at with the reference to nearby apartments, the biggest challenge may be transit since many employees take BART. Having said that, I'd be shocked if they re-open in the next month due to politics. Unfortunately, politics led to delayed action at the beginning and will probably lead to delayed re-opening.
It’s not just Fremont and Nevada. All of the 1000+ suppliers have to be producing. And this piecemeal shutdowns at different times across the U.S. and the rest of the world, means it will be hard to align schedules.

If you are making progress controlling the spread, then the case growth rate will decline faster and become lower than the death growth rate.
