We aren’t talking about zip codes. Twice as many blacks have been identified as victims of the virus in Madison. . That doesn’t mean it isn’t found throughout the county, but the question is why and where is it increasing so rapidly? Identifying the communities where it is rapidly spreading might assist in helping people in those communities be more aware and do a better job at limiting their exposure. It isn't about racism, but, it is about helping those folks who are most at risk be aware that they need to take appropriate measures to limit the risk. Precautions should be taken wherever one lives, but awareness is especially important on the most vulnerable communities.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-23860895816640527302020-05-15T13:08:03.451-05:002020-05-15T13:08:03.451-05:00@9:45.

Do you know how large the "Canton" zip code is? From Gluckstat to 43 by part of the Rez, to almost the Benton exit area, and beyond on 55,down the Natchez trace, etc. Lots of rural homes, lots of areas. Madison county is Madison county and it' s here. It doesn't matter where you live in Madison county.<br /><br />I have known of a person (nurse) from Ridgeland with it, a person from Camden with it now in the hospital and of that retirement home KF mentions above. Yes, it was 14 cases at that "lovely, upscale" retirement home in Ridgeland on Highland Colony a few weeks ago. I'm sure the cases are higher now. Had a relative there, who is now in another facility down the road where knock on wood there are no cases. These are not nursing homes by any means, these are high rent, upscale places but you can't stop the virus it seems with the frail and the older people at a lot of these are. (Plus the employees come and go and they were doing that well before we knew how the virus was). This is a good lesson to see which facilities are handling this right when it gets time to place someone...<br /><br />If you don' t know someone who has had it in Madison county or the tri-county area , you probably know someone with a cold, etc. who might have had it or had it months ago and no one knew it was here yet. I've known a couple of people who were really sick around Jan. that tested negative for the flu, etc., spouse included.<br /><br />Spouse has been working in this mess (Madison county) and said "most" people that come in their business do not wear masks, so much so that the employees feel uncomfortable. <br /><br />But some attitudes of I am not going to get it because I live in this part of the county, not in xyz county, etc. are ludicrous.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-68365666060233219762020-05-15T09:40:05.649-05:002020-05-15T09:40:05.649-05:00Why can't we have the number of people infecte...Why can't we have the number of people infected broken down by zip code?

Know several Madison County folks, including Canton, who have been infected. Know at least 5 that have died. The state infection rate, today using numbers above, is less than 0.003% with the dead making 0.04%. Not sure I agree with "A ton of deaths" quite yet. I know, but the models say this and the projections are that. Those don't matter until and if it happens. Just like the Hurricane Spaghetti models. Hundreds of places but usually near one of them. Stay happy and safe, well, safe. Yes make sure you don't add to the problems and remember to stay 6 feet apart and in a room with 10 or less, Whatever that will do as sneezing and coughing travels up to 20 feet or so and it one takes one to infect others, but hell, it sounds good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-8557289753893157842020-05-14T14:10:32.439-05:002020-05-14T14:10:32.439-05:001:15- Are you saying it’s okay if old folks and nu...1:15- Are you saying it’s okay if old folks and nursing homes residents get decimated? As long as you’re okay? If so, you’re a moral imbecile. A lot of those people had years and years of life left. The fatality/recovery rate has to be considered alongside how virulent and easy to spread the virus is. If just about everybody gets it and the fatality rate is low, it’s still an incredibly tragic event with a ton of deaths. The point is not whether you feel personally threatened or not; the point is you have a moral duty to minimize your role in spreading the virus because there are people out there who are threatened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-47079591559313619552020-05-14T13:56:23.971-05:002020-05-14T13:56:23.971-05:00If you don't know someone who has it, then it ...If you don't know someone who has it, then it must not be true!
