Peek-a-boo. Still no peak. - AW, Ed. Richard J. Wright | "Still Waiting," Virtual Wright Monday, June 29, 2020 It’s now been 4-1/2 weeks since the start of the riots in which tens of thousands of people violated the “science-based” and “data-driven” decrees of our feudal lords running our states and cities, and who themselves violated their own orders. These orders stated that groups of more than 10 people … [Read more...]

Corona Virulent Governor: It’s Not My Fault! The Virus Did It!
May 10, 2020, 2:22 pm by Leave a Comment
VirtualWright | COVID-19 | “It’s Not My Fault! The Virus Did It!” Governor J.B. Pritzker said last Thursday, “Well, I’m not the one holding back the economy from stage five, the COVID-19 virus is.” This the governor’s strategy to deflect responsibility from his actions. The virus doesn’t know what an economy is. It doesn’t know what a human being is. It doesn’t know anything at all. It’s not even … [Read more...]

VirtualWright | COVID-19 | “Jester...” So, Governor J.B. Pritzker announced his five step plan to reopen Illinois (i.e., the rest of us because he and his family don’t have to follow the rules). Here they are: Phase 1 – Rapid Spread: The rate of infection among those tested and the number of patients admitted to the hospital is high or rapidly increasing.

Fear the Walking COVID-19

VirtualWright | COVID-19 | "Fear" The picture at the top of this page is what the average person in my little suburb just outside of Chicago looks like these days. And who can blame them? 24/7 we are bombarded from every corner of government, the internet and media with constant stories of the virus is going to kill us all. Every time the government tries to protect us, it get’s worse, even as the … [Read more...]
That’s J.B. Pritzker, Tightening the Noose on Our Freedoms
April 28, 2020, 6:27 pm by 2 Comments
VirtualWright COVID-19 Now that the Wuhan Virus outbreak has peaked, the newly self-appointed despots known as governors and mayors are doubling down on their seemingly limitless ability to restrict our freedoms. For the past six weeks of essentially house arrest in Illinois, we have been able to go to the few “essential” businesses allowed to be open without wearing masks. During this time we have … [Read more...]
Is the Lockdown Having Any Effect at All?
April 21, 2020, 4:38 pm by Leave a Comment
VirtualWright COVID-19 In Infections and Fatalities I wondered why there is absolutely no discernible change in the cumulative U.S. Deaths curve to reflect the effect of the shutdown. Here’s a zoomed in look at curve 5 which perfectly fit the data until everyone started inflating the data at the CDC’s request as I pointed out in Changing Lanes: How can it be that shutting off the … [Read more...]
CDC’s Reckless Lane Change: Fudging the COVID-19 Death Count
April 21, 2020, 4:07 pm by 2 Comments
VirtualWright COVID-19 On April 14, New York announced that they would be adding more than 3,700 to the death total from the virus who were never actually tested. That’s a 50% increase. As of today, New York is reporting 8,811 confirmed deaths and 4,429 probable deaths, i.e. not tested. This is being done because that what the CDC has requested. So, right at the peak of deaths in this … [Read more...]

Look at the Actual COVID-19 Epidemic Curve (Epi Curve) to See its Rapid Decline
April 17, 2020, 11:04 am by 5 Comments
VirtualWright COVID-19 Today (April 16) President Trump and the “experts” outlined their plan to reopen the economy. Fundamental to this is seeing two weeks of sustained decline in COVID-19 cases. So, which graph are they going to use? The graph of cases by report date like this one (the typical one you see, in this instance, for the nearer suburbs of Chicago) -- where you don’t see a two week decline? Or, … [Read more...]
Finding True COVID-19 Infection and Fatality Rates, Mid-April
April 15, 2020, 6:21 am by Leave a Comment
VirtualWright Covid-19 What are the true fatality and infection rates of the Wuhan virus? I think we can come to some pretty fair conclusions based on the data we have in the U.S. and it’s right in line with what the worldwide data have been showing for some time. Up to now, the only number we could have some confidence in was the number of deaths, although even that is changing. As of today, the ration of … [Read more...]
COVID-19 End Game?
April 12, 2020, 7:05 am by Leave a Comment
VirtualWright Covid-19 It looks pretty clear now that we’ve peaked in the U.S., probably on April 9-10, days 40-41 on my graphs. Two weeks ago I estimated the peak to be at about day 39 because of the epi curves of actual data, not because the modelers were telling us so. I’ve now created a new normal distribution with the mean at day 41 and designed to fit the data (no models required). It shows a total of 33,000 … [Read more...]
