Lakewood covid cases

[aygart]

Any updates? My friend says it’s not as bad as a couple weeks ago, and he’s been very accurate with predicting upticks before the numbers show it.

Doesn't seem like Hatzalah is taking many people in , either.

Possibly due to more testing? #LakewoodModel

How many daily cases are there in Lakewood these days?

One is OCHD (general Lakewood Township); the other is Chemed (greater frum community).

From @dasmo801 's spreadsheet it looks like we've reached a peak again and at much lower numbers than round 2 (Y"K /Sukkos).

Peak of what?

Hefkervelt reported 51 cases today

Their math was wrong. They corrected it to 44 new cases.

I'm not sure how accurate this is. Does Chemed tracker include results from Friendly, Chai etc or is it just Chemed (and My Care)?

Where does the rest of the community test? It's not like there are a bunch of spanish urgent cares. They are testing at Chemed and Friendly and Chai etc. Even the place on second and monmouth, I have seen frum people on line to test there. So I'm not sure if there is really any accurate way of segregating the results.

7D average last week was briefly at 40 and is now around 35. I guess that's what @grodnoking is saying.

It only tracks frum cases (someone manually inputs the data). Like I've mentioned many times, while they do have data from more places than just Chemed/MyCare - they're aware that they don't have the complete picture (people testing places which don't input their data/or people who don't test at all). I've been told that their number can safely be multiplied by 5 for a number closer to reality.

And OCHD will not include 5 towns in their Lakewood results.

And OCHD will not include 5 towns in their Lakewood results.

(Chemed tracker is only for the greater frum Lakewood/Jackson/TomsRiver etc community.)

[S209]

(Chemed tracker is only for the greater frum Lakewood/Jackson/TomsRiver etc community.)

+ Brick + Howell = 5 towns

[Euclid]

+ Brick + Howell = 5 towns

Oh! My bad - thought he meant *the* Five towns (because I wasn't specific when I mentioned the greater frum community.)
Sorry @aygart

[avromie7]

+ Brick + Howell = 5 towns

+Manchester = 7

[ShimshonK]

Relative of mine from Chemed tells me that Chemed tracker is not quite accurate. Things are a bit of a mess, some don't get input into the tracker at all, some get input week or two delayed.

-Vaad Harabonim Linyonei Corona issue letter erev Chanukah: excerpts  "Over the last 3 weeks we have been again seeing an uptick in cases this continues to rise in a way which is remarkably like that which we say during elul  other kehilos are now experiencing an increase in hospitalizations we B"H are not experiencing it this time and we continue to be mispalel that we should remain that way. It is essential to point out that the window of opportunity to have the most  significant impact with the various  methods of hishtadlus is during this time once the coronavirus  has  spread even more it becomes much harder to contain therefore it is vital that everyone conduct themselves in the most responsible manner to safeguard themselves and more importantly protect others. The reality is that shuls yeshivos and schools are not the primary  sources of transmission instead the virus is spreading in homes between families and at gatherings like  chasunas, simchas, parties and the like. It should not need to be said anyone who is even possibly sick with covid19 should not be attending any gatherings of any kind no matter how careful they think they will be.

“Vaad Harabonim Linyonei Corona“ you can’t make this stuff up.
