Is this supposed to be sarcasm? A whistleblower sounding the alarm on data falsification is in no way comparable to a high-level rollup of data which, by the way, is (at most) a few clicks away on that same site.

>> high-level rollup of data which, by the way, is (at most) a few clicks away on that same site. It isn't. References to "data" are provided, no models or tabular data / metric-driven formulas are. I have a state information freedom request processing. Compare NY to WA and tell me if you really think the data is comparable. As for the data falsification claim, I have no idea why Inslee makes his decisions or when the phases will start based on metrics/numbers. It's entirely up to him and his mandate. That's not falsification, but it sure ain't transparent government or any sort of support for small businesses suffering from extended shutdown orders with no insight on the process.

    This does not look remotely like NY state's or have metrics/thresholds/categories. (I am familiar with it.) From this data, what algorithms/models does Inslee plug it into? What are acceptable levels of infection/community spread/ICU beds? Cuomo is very transparent about the 2nd question, which is enough for me given a two month window of time to work on it.

  You’re right. Forcing officials to lie to the public is comparable to shitty web design. There’s probably some secret collaboration between the State of Washington, Atlassian Jira, vaccine companies, and MySpace behind the whole thing.

    >> shitty web design You're beating a strawman. I don't care about the markup. I care that Inslee doesn't come close to Cuomo on distributing thresholds and limits on how phases move from one to the next. Cuomo has been very clear. Inslee has dumped data on a screen and some clipart.
