RELATED STORY FROM THURSDAY: DAILY UPDATE: 770 Confirmed Cases Of Coronavirus In Contra Costa County – 7 More Than Yesterday
Why don’t you stop focusing the headlines on the total count and focus on how many in the hospital. That count keeps going down that is what’s important
because they are dying
Why did Concord go from 70 cases yesterday to 69 today?
Concord dropped from 70 positive cases to 69? Guess 1 false positive?
Concord population is about 130,559, according to the City website. Frequency of infection is 0.053%. I’m not a math major, but I think I’d have to French kiss over 1800 women to get infected. Whatever we’re doing seems to be working, so let’s not start doing that Winston Wolf thing before we have this disease beaten.
Of course the infection rate is going to be lower here. We did the right thing and sheltered in place early on. Compare California to New York and you have a completely different story. What do you think would have happened if we just ignored it completely? You people would be crying and asking why the libearls didn’t doanything and it’s all to make poor little donnie look bad.
@Pyrrhus,
Three days difference, three days. That’s how much later NY began their SIP orders. Three days does not account for the huge difference of numbers. It’s been in California for a while. Thousands have most likely had it and haven’t known. It’s called getting out and getting herd immunity, while protecting the vulnerable.
I would never cry and ask why the liberals aren’t doing anything because they don’t do anything except raise taxes, seek to control everything about our lives, make empty promises to minorities for votes, and they practically invented the word ‘hypocrisy’ with the media’s help.
Without sheltering in place, I didn’t get Ebola. Without sheltering in place, I didn’t get H1N1. Without sheltering in place, I didn’t get SARS. Didn’t even know they were making the rounds. Something is wrong with this picture.
In Hospital totals have been flat lined for a while, I’m glad Newsom ok’ed Surgeries, Hospitals run on Patients, no Patients mean no income, I feared our Hospitals would be in the ICU on life support, I bet there is a large backlog
Glad to see Concords numbers go down by one from yesterday. 70 yesterday today 69.
For the naysayers Facts
After a hospital in Boston began requiring nearly everyone to wear masks, new coronavirus infections diagnosed in its staffers dropped by half — or more. (WBUR 90.9 FM)
Of course, without a control group, you could infer that the reason might have been that so many had already had the virus.
Yeah, studies without a counterfactual don’t tell us much, but thanks anyway, genius.
Hey all,
I am a nurse at UCSF. We receive daily emails sharing statistics for our facilities in terms of Covid infections, ICU admissions, Acute Care and Deaths. Our leaders have been very transparent in the fight against Covid and feel it is important to keep communication, practice and education at the forefront so we can all team up and continue to administer safe care and be aware of what we are up against. Nurse friends in NYC tell us we are lucky as they’re fighting unimaginable battles.
Below are from my UCSF emails on 4/22. Just thought I’d share some statistics and not opinion. Stay safe out there.

Today’s Snapshot
Today, we have 14 confirmed COVID+ patients at UCSF Health, with 7 in the ICU, and 5 intubated. Of 57 hospitalized COVID+ patients to date, 43 have been discharged from the hospital, and 1 has died. Today, we have our first pediatric COVID+ patient, a 2 week old neonate in the BCH Oakland neonatal ICU. A major update of expanded inpatient testing for asymptomatic patients is described in today’s update.
Employee COVID +’s: Currently, 52 employees have tested positive of 1458 total tested;39 of those are now recovered and back at work. The test positivity rate for employees is currently 3.6%. (These numbers include Health and Campus employees.)
Newsom and his County bureaucrats are Amateurs. They could learn volumes from Trumps playbook. Trump saved California’s ass by restricting international flights. Trump delivered respirators and Navy hospital ships to the whining governors of Calif. and NY faster than any career whore politician could have ever imagined. Newsome and his pathetic county medical directors have duped you dumb ass voters once again. Shame on California men for being such whimps and taking the bait. The REAL crisis is yet to come and Newsom owns it……Recession at best; Depression likely.
