LjLsometimes i feel like screaming from just inability to remember things and keep tabs, which is a proxy for having control i guess02:18
LjLi remember, vaguely, this site with icons for each country, i'm sure it had whether or not schools were open among other information02:18
LjLi've not been able to find it again, or at least to be sure i'd found it, since i've found sites with somewhat similar things, but i'm not really sure they're the one i had in mind, it seemed complete and unique, but i thought "i'll note it down later", yeah, sure02:19
LjLso anyway i'm thinking, Italy has avoided a second wave so far but our schools have been closed until the end of the school year02:19
LjLi'd like to see what other countries that have had/avoided a second wave so far have done with schools, since data on children transmission seems inconsistent02:20

LjLfireaves, for some people, loss of smell and/or taste are early symptoms. however some people don't have that at all. other common symptoms are fever and dry cough, but these things are common with other flu-like illnesses too, so really there isn't a way to *know* you have it except getting tested. if you have immediately concerning symptoms like shortness of breath, then you should call emergency services16:52

ubLIX[m]not sure where offloop pulls testing data from, but OWID seems to make an effort to record in their general dataset the number of people tested rather than number of swabs/tests processed (https://github.com/owid/covid-19-data/tree/master/public/data - see "Data Alterations"); updated twice weekly, last record for UK seems to be from Sunday, and it was 9,818,696 people tested, which is quite a bit less than 16.7 million17:47

LjLubLIX[m], ah that's good potentially... offloop pulls testing data from Covidly, but aside from the fact it's total test, not per person, it's also just awful for some countries18:07
LjLlike much of Covidly data sadly, but worse18:07
LjL"Johns Hopkins University is doing very valuable work, but the list of open issues is long – they can be found here."18:09
LjLhttps://ourworldindata.org/covid-sources-comparison18:09
ubLIX[m]hmm. i say "make an effort" because they say in the place i noted that that is what they are doing (presenting numbers relating to persons tested, not tests performed), but they have notes on their multiple testing time-series data spread all over their github page, so i don't currently have insight into how successful their effort is on this front18:10
ubLIX[m]also, their general csv download (i think they call it the 'Complete' set) is as of today 6MB - i have not yet discovered how to download only updates, or whether that is possible; for daily updates it might be necessary to download the whole growing set each time18:12
LjLit's a time of many efforts that are only partially successful18:12
LjLanyway that "comparison" page is interesting partly because it has graphs with the three main data sources (WHO, ECDC, JHU) overlayed onto one another18:13
LjLat the bottom18:13
ubLIX[m]for regular downloading of their dataset, they seem to prefer you use this url: https://covid.ourworldindata.org/data/owid-covid-data.csv18:13
LjLthey may be afraid that github gets mad18:14
ubLIX[m]the layout of the csv is quite nice, and i suppose it'd be trickier to offer a way to download in date ranges, but i'm disappointed i've not yet found a way of doing so, since downloading the whole thing every day just for one day's update seems a bit gratuitous18:16

ubLIX[m]sorted alphabetically by country code (the first field), more or less18:21
ubLIX[m]so for the end user, inserting such daily updates into their previous download would be.. just a 2-field sort operation i guess18:23

ziperwhat do you think the number of copies in a sample of wastewater would be after 24 hrs?19:37
ziperhalf? 10 percent?19:37
LjLi have absolutely no idea... in the wastewater studies, i haven't even seen amount of amplifications mentioned (although i may just have missed it)19:45
ziperseeing a 2 orders of magnitude difference between two labs, not sure if the difference is in handling or what19:46
tinwhiskersI wouldn't have thought there was any amplification, or at least so close to none that it may as well be none. Is there evidence of that happening?19:49
LjLtinwhiskers, what do you mean by amplification? i am referring to the amplification that makes up he PCR test19:53

tinwhiskersOh. Then I'm not sure what the question is about.19:56
LjLtinwhiskers, i think he means what's the half life of the virus in wastewater basically20:01
LjLyou can measure viral load, roughly, by seeing how many amplifications you have to run in PCR to reach a given amount20:01
zxmPeople who cry about wearing masks and violate quarantine orders should be hunted down by the government.20:01
tinwhiskersOh. That makes sense.20:01
zxmWe need the government involved with doctors and scientists as much as possible with COVID-19 to help eliminate it.20:02
ziperi should probably read more about how PCR testing works. the results also have a Ct value I don't know how to interpret 20:03
zxmWe need to shoot antimaskers20:03
tinwhiskersDilution rates rates would seriously screw with comparing results from different sewerage plants20:03
zxmIf Americans weren't retarded and wore masks the pandemic wouldn't be as widespread 20:04
zipersame sewage plant, different testing labs20:04
tinwhiskersOh20:04
zxm%cases <canada>20:04
Brainstormzxm: In World, there have been 18.7 million confirmed cases (0.2% of the population) and 701212 deaths (3.8% of cases) as of 16 minutes ago. 348.8 million tests were performed (5.3% positive). Fatality can be broadly expected to lie between 0.2% (assuming prevalence as in tests) and less than 5.7% (considering only deaths and recoveries). See https://offloop.net/covid19/?default=World for time series data.20:04

tinwhiskersAlso temporal dilution rates at the same plant I guess.20:05
BrainstormLjL: In Canada, there have been 117333 confirmed cases (0.3% of the population) and 8953 deaths (7.6% of cases) as of 5 minutes ago. 4.0 million tests were performed (2.9% positive). Fatality can be broadly expected to lie between 0.8% (assuming prevalence as in tests) and less than 8.1% (considering only deaths and recoveries). See https://offloop.net/covid19/?default=Canada for time series data.20:05
zxmAh 20:05
zxmI see how the bot works now20:05
LjLdidn't realize the death rate was that high in Canada20:06
zxmHere in my province the virus is virtually gone, people here aren't retarded and know how to follow orders.20:06
zxm%cases Nova Scotia20:06
Brainstormzxm: In Nova Scotia, Canada, there have been 1071 confirmed cases (0.1% of the population) and 64 deaths (6.0% of cases) as of a day ago. 14740 tests were performed (7.3% positive). See https://offloop.net/covid19/?default=Nova%20Scotia for time series data.20:06
zxmAlso, out of 1071 confirmed cases, over 1000 are recovered.20:07
zxmThis is due to mask mandate and people here following orders20:07
