GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 County maps..Pittsburgh looks the hottest. I saw estimates of around 20,000 daily cases by later this month..on the climb right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarponhead Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 I think better data point(s) to track are ICU capacity etc. That will determine what the gov does policy wise rather than surrogate data. If pennsy can handle 10k+/day (or whatever #) then all good. If that # maxes health care capacity than that’s what will drive policy in regard to what business are allowed to operate.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This is accurate. If beds aren't available because of COVID, then that takes away beds from other medical emergencies. But yeah, 10k cases a day is not sustainable for healthcare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These policies are just theatre. They can’t “require” anything, as noted in the article. “Self certification” 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good by any means but would this really show an uptick in business for you? Or would a decent number of these people be dying anyway? Deaths per day is way up though. Hopefully this stabilizes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this stabilizes The funeral homes we work with primarily in PA and NJ have done more funerals than ever this year. Sure an 87 year old who died of Covid in 2020 would likely die in a few years anyway. We are just getting the business earlier. Deaths nationwide are about 10% more than in an average year due to Covid-19 but higher in the region I work in. Early in the pandemic funeral homes were so busy they weren’t even writing orders and since summer it’s been insane. November is typically a pretty slow month for us and we beat last years November by about 80% and December is off to a healthy start. I’d rather have normalcy..but also happy that me and my employees are getting nice bonuses next week. Deaths per day in PA and the US will keep increasing for likely a few months..deaths lag new cases by about 3-4+ weeks.

Thanks for that. It's actually quite informative. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
