TCU 360: TCU’s mask mandate to remain in place
- Thread starter TopFrog
- Start date
Continuing to beat a dead horse as I am prone to do, but this was your exact question............."Even if a mask reduces impact only 2%, that is the population of TCU. If wearing a mask could keep all the students at TCU from dying or not, would you wear one or consider it too much of a burden?
I don't know how it could be any more clear, or unclear I guess. My answer to this specific question would be entirely different than the one you claim to be asking.

this as i would like to know if the the 0.7% reduction in deaths a reduction of less than 1% of the total number of deaths or moving from say 3.5% to 2.8%?
"Substantial" level of spread in a county of 1,900,000 people, which I believe is the highest category.

the community spread level is "susbtantial"?

For those of you seeking “real” numbers upon which to base your argument, I’ll give you a heads-up....the numbers exist but they are now irretrievably lost and they’ll never be discovered. For anything and everything about this situation. Positive cases. Primary cause fatalities. False positives. Number of people tested. % positive recovery. None of it. It will all be “modeled” and the models advanced and disputed. AND...this obscurity was foreseeable and purposeful.

He was clearly just using the number of TCU students as a way to illustrate how many people 10,000 is in a way that we can relate to. He wasn’t getting in to age of the people saved at all.

Apparently some things are taken as fact gospel if they include a number and no outside or additional forces can act on said number.

Was that while Hallie Berry was blowing him and he had to hack the CIA manframe while also having a gun to his head??
Well, we've heard numbers thrown out with absolutely no context since the beginning of this thing, so I'm sorry for not completely understanding the point.
I guess to answer your question, no, I don't think mask wearing and not eating indoors at restaurants is worth temporarily extending 10,000 lives. Cost-benefit factor out of whack.

from the beginning of this crisis we have continually had "experts" throw out numbers with no basis or not explanation of the source of such numbers and when called on it they simply say they did so in order to get peoples attention as a call to action
sad that the experts we are told to trust and the discipline we are supposed to follow has continually built specious arguments for months now

See if I read it correctly ... the caveat I didn't include was the 20 days ...
