NorCo Creates Its Own Covid-19 Graph

Hat's off to Northampton County's excellent GIS department, which has always done an outstanding job at creating maps. It is now tracking Covid-19 with a logarithmic scale, day by day, located here. There are also charts showing demographic information as well as hospital availability. Here's how we stack up in comparison to surrounding counties, as of yesterday.

  2. I know that my tax dollars are being spent on GIS software here in Bethlehem Twp yet there has not been a post to their website with any real Covid-19 information nor an update post in almost a week?

  3. Interesting that there are no deaths in Easton, Wilson nor West Easton?

  4. Check the article by Elizabeth Goutein in the Jan/Feb 2019 issue of Atlantic Magazine. A thorough examination of what kind of extraordinary power Trump really CAN exert in times of Emergency. So, who knows?

    Posted here because few people look below the first 3-4 Blog entries where this would be of greater relevance. Thank You.

  7. Bernie,

    Please tell the NorCo powers-that-be there's no such thing as "average gender."

    1. Northampton County is not accurately reporting deaths at Gracedale. Patients are fine one day and a funeral director is taking them out the back door.

  8. I predicted as a former Army NBC Officer that the date to open stuff up would be the 22Arprll 2020 .. so stay away from other people till about then . Chemical Personal do this on drills .. One time a chemical officer was a female Major ,and we were washed off ,standing nude after exercise. So what this is seriously an issue. There is is modesty. Just the facts . Mam .

  9. You never did a drill of ANY sort with COVID-19. Let the doctors advise us. You're going to get people killed.

  10. Unless you test all individuals inside facilities and do contact tracing , you cannot accurately determine the
    COVID 19 charting ....many symptoms vary from individual to individual..many have the virus and don’t know it, and some within a week of infection need ventilation....no one knows enough yet about this invisible
    Danger

  11. Tested last Thursday; no results either neg. or pos. /seems they don't know if the 6 hr test works or not. I don't care. At least they gave me a free mask and said don't touch your face, wash you hands, etc, etc. Fuck it. I'm not sick, maybe a "carrier", but at this point, after all the BS, who cares?

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
