People get stuck on a story. I do the same. There was a time when we didn't
have enough testing when health officials were telling you to not get
tested unless you were symptomatic. Most places now have plenty of capacity
so really, we should all just go get tested.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Good news?

2020-08-06 Thread Lewis Bergman
The only fallacy with that is again, if you want more of
something subsidize it. I believe at $2k a week you are giving people an
incentive to commit fraud. If you pay the tester for testing only, there is
no incentive other than to actually perform a test instead of just claiming
they did (which is what I think the mostly likely explanation for what I
described). So to be clear, if you go the paperwork on someone and have all
the info you need to get paid, other than the little thing of actually
having the person there to perform the test on, you have an economic
incentive to say you processed the test. And of course if you are going to
make something up, say they are positive since they might have to come back
and get tested again to make sure depending on the type of test you
performed initially.

Anyway Carl, My sense of economics tells me that if you pay people who
perform testing more if the test is positive than negative and if you pay
people a lot more if they do test positive, you will definitely have a lot
more positive results, some of which are going to be fraudulent. No idea
how many. In some places that would be zero. In some, it would be a large
number. Statistics would eventually weed that out after the fact. By then,
the horse is already out of the barn and the money's gone. I pay a lot of
taxes so I actually care where that money goes. Some may not.

IMHO there should be economic incentive to identify and isolate as many
cases as possible.  There should also be economic incentives for people who
test positive to isolate.  eg if you test positive, do contact tracing and
isolate at home for two weeks you get paid 2K a week to do it and your
employer has to give you the time off (paid or unpaid at their

Re: [AFMUG] OT Good news?

2020-08-06 Thread Lewis Bergman
I didn't suggest an economic incentive existed. As you correctly quoted me,
I asked if there was one. Asking if there is a god does not proclaim that
God exists. It does ask a question to ponder if there is one, and suggests
the possibility of a god.

I didn't proclaim there is an incentive. I was searching for a reasoned
explanation for what I saw. I don't know what you are searching for other
than defending some viewpoint. I am not attacking your view, whatever that
might be, of a COVID number or whatever else you are defending.
Again, whatever. I don't even care about what you, or Chuck, or Jaime think
about COVID. I like them alot, but I just don't care about COVID anymore.
Maybe it still cares about me. What I do care about is someone claiming I
am pushing a conspiracy theory.

The extent of what I said was to suggest a reasonable explanation for a
fact. I could be wrong. I don't think I said "I know there is some
incentive" I posed the question. Are we too fragile to be exposed to
questions?

Lastly, I guess you are an English teacher. I am an accountant by training.
I like to find the economic driver which I believe lies behind most
decisions. I didn't say all, but most. Since I don't have a PHD in English
I won't debate if your method to get my point across is more clear. Seems
pretty similar to me.

Josh,

I'm surprised to find you supporting my point.

"The first round of grants will be distributed based on historical share
Medicare revenue, not based on COVID-19 burden. Therefore, hard-hit states
like New York will receive far less per COVID-19 case than most other
states.

HHS said it doled out the first slice of funding based on Medicare revenue
to get support to hospitals as quickly as possible. The agency said
 the next round of grants
"will focus on providers in areas particularly impacted by the COVID-19
outbreak," rural hospitals and other healthcare providers that receive much
of their revenues from Medicaid."

WTF don't you people understand? How many times do I have to state I am NOT
trying to state, imply, or propagate that there is a conspiracy to inflate,
deflate, or otherwise misreport the numbers?

I'll state again, for I hope the very last time:
Anecdotal information I have personal knowledge of to be true, that there
is over reporting in this oh so tiny subset of data. I am sure there is
misreporting of positive cases as negative. I merely quesited about there
being some misguided economic incentive, put in place with the best
intentions but possibly mistakenly incentivizing testing facilities, to
report positive cases. I have no idea why such a policy would be put in
place.

Whatever, this whole thing has just driven people crazy.

If you think you are gonna get sick, stay isolated. If your grandmother is
fragile, she should stay isolated. If you are healthy, or just don't care
anymore, do whatever the $%@& you want.

Other than that, it is going to be mighty hot out there today.

One of the things that the federal government and international community 
should have been focused on is defining testing and reporting procedures to 
ensure data integrity, completeness, and the ability to track and compare

So, I went digging for a reason behind the positives for people who didn't 
actually succeed in getting tested. 


One thing I found is that it sounds like some of these testing sites are not 
being run in a very intelligent manner. The brokenness you described (where 3 
people who got out of line got calls about a positive result), may be a result 
of some sites which apparently took the personal information when people got in 
line, and then assumed that everyone stayed in line. So if one person gets out 
of line, then the people behind them don't get their own test results, they get 
the results of the people behind them, and the person who got out of line gets 
a test result even though they weren't tested. Apparently this has happened in 
at least one location but hopefully isn't all that common as this is a pretty 
stupid thing to do. 


There are also people who are getting calls from scammers who are trying to 
convince people they are positive for some scammy purpose. With so many tests 
being administered, it's probably a pretty high chance that a scammer will 
successfully reach people who have had a recent COVID test. And with tests 
taking a week or more for results, the window is fairly wide. 


I don't doubt at all that people are getting the wrong results, false 
positives, false negatives, and so on. I also don't doubt that some misguided 
localities are deciding to report things in non-straightforward ways which make 
the stats better for whatever reasons. My favorite is the states who have 
decided to report based on 'date of symptom onset', so you never see the number 
of new positive cases on a given date, they just silently update the numbers 
over the last 2 weeks as people get tested, and the graphs always look like the 
numbers are going down since not all of the recent cases are discovered yet. 


Like anything though, there seem to be quite a few conspiracy theorists out 
there who are convinced that all the numbers are being faked, including 
hospitalizations and deaths. Yes, it is certain that the numbers aren't 100% 
correct, and I'm sure there will be lots of examples where people don't feel a 
given case was recorded properly, but I just can't see it being a widespread 
conspiracy being driven by whoever the theorist's favorite bogeyman is.

To be clear, I was saying there was a conspiracy. Although I will say if you 
want more of something, you subsidize it, and less of something, you tax it. 
All I was saying is I saw no reason for an entity, public or private, to 
falsify 3 out of 3 tests unless there was some financial incentive for doing 
so. Although anecdotal, that's a hell of a coincidence. 

Again, economic policy can drive mass decision making, which to some, can seem 
like a conspiracy, but in actuality is just macroeconomic decisions working 
down to the micro level. The same reason people buy shit at Wal-Mart for $2 
less than somewhere else.

Anyway, I just thought it added color to the numbers and is the only actual 
verifiable inconsistency I have seen.

In my opinion, everyone on the planet, save those cannibals on that little 
island of NZ, are going to get COVID so while slowing it might be a good idea, 
it lengthens the time we stay in this rut and doesn't prevent the inevitable.

Conspiracy theories lose credibility when the number of
  participants exceed 5 or 10 people. You're talking about a
  conspiracy involving 5 or 6 thousand hospitals in 50 states (plus
  all the territories), with who knows how many people involved at
  each hospital.

I see these articles debating who should get a vaccine first, some arguing 
young people should get it because they have more years ahead of them, 
basically let the old people die.  But if young people keep acting like idiots, 
maybe they don’t have that many years after all.  If the virus doesn’t get 
them, some other stupid stunt will.  Plus they will have enjoyed their short 
lives, with all the partying.

 

Grumble, grumble.

Illinois 7 day positive results average went from 4% positive to 3.9% positive 
yesterday.  So I guess that's good news.  But reports are a majority of new 
cases are from college age kids coming back to campuses and partying.

Here in Illinois, we're sitting at ~4% positive for the last week, but 4.6% 
positive yesterday, we were at 2.8% positive a month ago.  I think some of the 
'bad' states are upwards of 10% positive.

A few years ago California instituted a "top 2" primary system, where all 
candidates from all parties were thrown into a single primary. The top-two vote 
getters (regardless of party) would go on to the regular election. The theory 
was that the left/right extremes would move closer to center. That has happened 
somewhat, but I think it would have been better with a "top 3".

Testing data is being suppressed and hidden at this point because
  it is going through a private company that OCP did a no bid
  contract with. Reports are that the data is disappearing and/or
  taking a two-week detour.

When I was seeing my Primary doc for a physical, he said that he feels 
the only numbers worth looking at are % of positive tests, and 
Deaths/infections.  The total numbers don't mean anything.


Here in Illinois, we're sitting at ~4% positive for the last week, but 
4.6% positive yesterday, we were at 2.8% positive a month ago. I think 
some of the 'bad' states are upwards of 10% positive.

Well, the wife of one of my employees has it.  He moved out and self 
quarantined.  He doesn’t have it.  He tested negative, she tested positive.  
Seems to be working OK for me.  There was no reluctance to administer the 
tests.  No delay.  Results were back in a day.

But how many are actually very sick?  There have been a lot of people testing 
positive around here with nothing more than cold symptoms and sometimes a 
headache for a day.  Our county has been flipping out because of higher numbers 
of positive tests and put in more restrictions.  They kept saying in the media 
that the higher number of positive tests were NOT because of higher overall 
numbers of tests.  Then last week it comes out that they were holding back 
large numbers of negative tests to keep the % where they wanted it.  All of a 
sudden the story changed to be that the large number of negative tests WAS ONLY 
because there had been SO MANY more tests done overall.  The positive % was 
pretty much exactly the same as it has been for many weeks but that number 
meant they had to ease restrictions (according to their plan that they put out) 
but they obviously wanted to increase restrictions……

 

The best “science” so far though has been when they claimed that it was 
“scientifically proven” that the peaceful protests (aka riots) didn’t cause ANY 
spike in the positive test numbers BECAUSE they asked every single person who 
tested positive a series of questions and almost everybody (I believe it was 
around 98%) refused to answer the question about whether they had participated 
in a “protest”.  They did however answer the other questions and say that they 
had been in family gatherings and spent time at bars.  Very good science 
there…..  2% said they didn’t protest, 98% refused to answer so it’s completely 
obvious that protesting didn’t play any role……  so the county put restrictions 
on all gatherings and essentially shut down any bar that didn’t have outdoor 
seating and serve food (except of course for the “peaceful protests” who 
continue to gather whenever/wherever they want and shut down roads etc).

It would be nice if only actual covid deaths were being counted……

A shirt tail relative of one of our employees died a while back and was listed 
as covid.  Turned out she overdosed on pills, went into the bathroom and tried 
to make herself throw up, slipped, gashed her head open and bled to death.   
And as far as I know it’s still one of the covid deaths counted in this area.

Gino - Deaths are a lagging indicator.  Deaths are still going up while it
looks like new cases are starting to go down.
Robbert -  No offense but that makes zero sense and is counterfactual.
Testing rates are continuing to rise.

I am not into conspiracy theories. I am into economics, and how that drives
decisions. I say that delete into this Colin I had 3 friends that went to
get tested. All of them filled out the paperwork but after 3 hours got
tired of waiting. They all left without testing. One week later they all
received positive results from the covid test they supposedly took.
 I don't know if the testing site gets paid for test performed so has an
incentive to decide one way or the other even if they don't perform a test

Our Utah curve looks even better than this and we have plenty of testing 
capability and are doing more tests than ever before.  
No natl guard involvement at all...

We can test 7000 per day here but only have a demand for about 1300 tests per 
day.  
Again, no natl guard involvement ... ;-)

My wife just pointed out that once school starts it will blow this curve.

Yup, that's what you get with controlling the data and reducing the testing 
rates...   Here in our county the testing rate has been reduced by 2/3 because 
the resources of the national guard have been pulled.
