      I'm just gonna say that the Chinese government gets some credit for that. The projected mortality rate was really low, but after Italy the real scenary was clear, unfortunately that was too late. I personally think there could be somewhere between 10-20 times the official number of deaths reported from the Chinese govt

      @martianunlimited 4 года назад +9

      It is worse than that.... because of the incubation period (3-5 days) and the test turn around time, (1-2 days), anything we know today about the number of cases, are the numbers 5 days ago, which is why there is typically a 1-2 weeks lag time in seeing the effects of governmental actions on the number of cases. Moreover because most countries are under-testing, the real number of infected, are typically ~1.5-4 times higher....
      We have been screaming since the deaths first start appearing in Washington that the US (early March) is on track to overtake China in the terms of the number of cases and cities would start to be overwhelmed by the outbreak by the end of March and was laughed off by the comments section... I wonder if this is how the Greek oracle Cassandra must have felt. To be able to predict disasters but cursed with having nobody believe her.

    Math wise, the examples are all correct and very graphically straightforward for everybody to understand. Luckily for us, the virus spread moves in a more organic, imperfect manner, and doesn't reach real exponential levels. That being said, social distancing is proven to reduce the R0 of virus spread, reducing its exponentially dramatically!! bottomline: Stay at home and help the health system keep up until we have a vaccine.

    I'm surprised that exponential growth wasn't more widely known and this is a great way to let people know and an even better example of how education should be interesting and creative, for lots of people a lockdown could broaden exposure to different education methods. Thank you also for using your VFX skills to give me a unique RUclips experience during lockdown. Visually so beautiful and interesting. Take care 😘

      If there was exponential growth, we'd be past several billion cases today, rather than at 1.7 million cases.
      A million times a million is not 1.7 million lol. The day it hit a million cases the species should have ended...it's ALMOST like it's NOT growing exponentially.

      To put it simply:

      Now think globally. Because of the ease of access to modern transportation technologies every country on earth is exposed to this virus and it's disease. Not only 330 Million American are at risk but the vast majority of the 7 billion people on planet earth ("vast majority" because there will and are places where the virus never emerged because of it's small population or extremely remote geological location).

      lets assume the pond is quite small at around 10m² surface area.
      as already stated it doubles every day.
      the algi would have to grow by a factor of (361 B m² / 10 m² = 36.1 B)!

      we just take the log to the base 2 of 36 Bilion and get:

Or maybe our reality is a fictional world created by some writer somewhere. Is it really only this absurd in the U.S.? However how could I trust your opinion of what is normal? Your normal may be absurd in my opinion. I think all I can do is continue being an introverted urban survivalist until there is a lot less people.

Also, as the video explained, it's not true exponential growth it's logistic 3:10 as time stamp for where that gets mentioned. And for deaths, remember that only confirmed cases of covid get counted as death by covid, so if someone dies but was not tested they wont be recorded in the official death toll numbers.
