(Yes, I'm surprised TLS actually posted this.)
If close to 40,000 in Lakewood got it the first time around, and as many believe, there are currently over a thousand cases a week, that would mean that over the last few weeks we have been getting pretty close to the 70% threshold (70% of 80,000 = 56,000). Doesn’t it make sense to just go all the way for once and for all and get it over with in a few weeks?

As I posted back in the day, and was ridiculed over it,  over and over again, LKWD infection rate in the so called first round was way higher then most ppl think.

The 30-40k is a fake #.

The elite class decides how to play things.

How are you getting your numbers? The highest antibody number I've seen is 40% which is around 40k people.

If you're basing it off anecdotes, most people I know did not get it in the first wave so it's my anecdotal evidence against yours. Additionally, some people I know who thought they got it in the first wave have now contracted it in the second wave.

@KSMH I love conspiracy theories. Can I please hear how the elite class in Lakewood manipulates the numbers, and all the gossip of what they stand to gain by it?

You and I know that. My point is that OCHD is reporting a major uptick (major compared to their previous numbers). Do we think that the state will just ignore that?

I've posted in detail back then, I thought we all agree by now there are different types of antibody  and not all would show in a test.

I'm not trying to downplay the seriousness whatsoever and in fact have been more careful then most [if not all]  people around me and those living within my community. At the same time, restrictions, statistics and measures don't necessarily curtail the spread.

As I have said before, people had a choice between full weddings and keeping schools open. They chose the full weddings. It is very much on their cheshbon that all of these schools have classes shutting down and may get worse at the rate things are going. Where things will head between now and YK is anyone's guess.

I didn't write what u say I did, I said they decide how to play things. Again, I didn't say numbers, although limiting testing would give credit to such a claim.

Its not a conspiracy, closing your eyes or being ignorant doesn't change the facts.

Maybe u know less, but there is a class of ppl, whom have many different titles who decide how to run things.

If you believe that numbers can be manipulated, you have to acknowledge that it goes both ways, depending on who is doing the manipulating and what their motives are. IMO, the numbers are definitely being played with, which is why they shouldn't dictate our hishtadlus. It was true when we were saying it all summer when the numbers in NY/NJ were low, and it is still true now.

I think we've got a pretty good idea where it's heading, especially if mask usage and social distancing are low over RH.

The unknown is not whether or not there will be more cases. That is a given at this point.

Just addressing that piece on the scoop. Pretty much taking the numbers from the article and what many here assume to be the number of new infections

Except you're using the wrong denominator. Lakewood population is nowhere near 80,000. Especially including the frum community in TR/Jackson.

I wasn't referring to you, but whatever that letter writer wrote is probably not worth the pixels it displayed on. A random letter writer to the Lakewood Scoop. That is תרתי לריעותא of extreme fake news.

Article doesn't say that.

Quote
It is estimated that around 30% of the population (30,000-40,000 people) of Lakewood had been infected in the first wave. That leaves around 70% of Lakewood (70,000-90,000 people) still vulnerable to infection.
