The metrics don’t work for states that have extremely low levels of death.

You think that North Dakota is going to have two weeks of declining deaths? The CDC guidelines are just that, guidelines. Makes complete sense for places like NY or the US at a macro level. Doesn’t make sense for Virginia at this stage. So yes, they are flawed.

Regardless of them being flawed, if you are going to announce that those are the metrics that will be used, then you should damn sure make sure those metrics are available.

Anybody know if there is an actual place to view the VA metrics to get to -- VTBB 04/26/2020 3:16PM

Ummm that sounds like the federal guidelines ** -- AbsolutVT03 04/26/2020 4:58PM

Actually you know that's the CDC and POTUS metrics? Love it... ** -- UTPr0sim 04/26/2020 4:50PM

Yes. I’m aware. ** -- VTBB 04/26/2020 5:07PM

So the CDC and POTUS are also incredibly flawed? Want to include everyone. ** -- UTPr0sim 04/26/2020 6:34PM

The lady's salon down the street announced May 9 reopening -- lchoro 04/26/2020 4:36PM

Will this do? -- EDGEMAN 04/26/2020 4:02PM

The VDH website and VA's production of data has been terrible ** -- ModerateHokie 04/26/2020 3:41PM

Uncounted COVID-19 deaths -- HokieRider 04/26/2020 3:58PM

Curious, what type of data are you looking to get? -- TheNuke 04/26/2020 3:50PM

I don't want to know the date a positive result was reported, I -- ModerateHokie 04/26/2020 5:14PM

More testing will mean more positives...that's the plan. ** -- Hockey Dad 04/26/2020 3:26PM

Right. I get it as long as testing keeps increasing or stays a constant. -- VTBB 04/26/2020 3:32PM

Agreed and I would like to see it county by county too. -- RUHokie 04/26/2020 4:15PM

Try this one -- Concord Dan 04/26/2020 3:24PM

Those two metrics aren’t there that I can see. -- VTBB 04/26/2020 3:33PM

At the bottom of this page you can download data to create your own graphs -- TheNuke 04/26/2020 3:45PM

That data doesn't contain the number of tests given. ** -- VTBB 04/26/2020 3:47PM

Too many testing centers for that -- TheNuke 04/26/2020 4:11PM

Nope. They have the data. It’s been on the VDH page since the beginning. -- VTBB 04/26/2020 4:14PM

You say that you want testing count data, then say it's on the site? ** -- TheNuke 04/26/2020 4:43PM

No. I want a graph of historical data so I can watch the trends. -- VTBB 04/26/2020 5:46PM

Useful metrics aren't available in Virginia ** -- ModerateHokie 04/26/2020 3:42PM
