No, it is a reference point to show much we missed the peak by, especially when combined with the flu activity chart. Of the published current hospitalizations of Covid in Ohio, it never reached the levels of the flu for this year.
I don't have the readily available data that those two have at their disposal to make decisions.
Also once more information does become available, which it has and did, I am willing to have that challenge my prior beliefs. This did not seem like something that was happening with Dewine and Acton.
Shows how much they missed the lock down by. If you combine that article with the chart in Flu Activity in 2020 it shows how we should have locked down much earlier than we did if we were to lock down at all.
Never said that.
I laid out what they should have done in my post. Protect the nursing homes, congregate living facilities and elderly.
If they were going to lock down they missed that by weeks.
DeWine and Acton missed the mark on almost everything, which can be seen in my post above.
Just stop while you are behind. If anything Dewine and Acton didn't act correctly on much of anything.
Check out this article. Illustrastes how DeWine and Acton completely failed the nursing homes and prisons which costed lives.

If anything, they completely screwed up the lockdown by not locking down earlier. See link below on the Flu actitiviy in Ohio for 2020.

Also you explain the 32% decrease in hospitalizations in the last 2 weeks in Ohio after we have been open for a month and after Memorial Day?

Check this chart that says the media age of death due to covid is 81 in Ohio

What is the actual life expectenacy in Ohio you might ask? 77 in 2017

Please stop with the sanctimonious "it hasn't affected you or your loved ones". That is completely untrue. You have no idea how this pandemic has affected anyone on this forum.
