Coronavirus is one mutation away from infecting millions

[hater]

ppl are missing the point

even at this current state the virus would probably be equivalent of a massive flu on a healthy individual. if contagion is not controlled the toll on our medical services and thus other services (food, transport, security, garbage) would be great

scarcity of food and all other problems associated with this not to mention economic

so no, most likely this flu wont kill you but if it becomes pandemic you will suffer 100% sure of this

we must hope it will be controlled. next few days will be key

travel needs to be shut down and WHO needs to call this what it is a global emergency

I called this 2 months ago ma nigas


had you been listening you would not be so shocked/stressed now

I had time to prepare got a good supply of N95 maks, foods and necessities. I been ready for 2 months

I will also volunteer to deliver stuff to old ppl if need be and help out

7:58 am: Germany’s Merkel says most people will get infected

GP: German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Gransee

Up to 70% of the population is likely to be infected with the coronavirus that is currently spreading around the world, German Chancellor Angela Merkel said, adding that since there was currently no cure the focus had to be on slowing its spread.


“When the virus is out there, the population has no immunity and no therapy exists, then 60% to 70% of the population will be infected,” she told a news conference in Berlin. “The process has to be focused on not overburdening the health system by slowing the virus’s spread... It’s about winning time.”

Those remarks come as local authorities in Germany reported the third death in the country of a COVID-19 patient. Germany has at least 1,613 cases of the virus, according to Johns Hopkins University. —Reuters

I’m not sure I understand the rationale of testing. You either get real sick requiring more intensive treatment or you don’t. If you have mild symptoms, potentially coronavirus infection, you isolate yourself. People are going to request testing every time they sneeze. Seems with so many asymptomatic potential for exposure is essentially inevitable unless you go hermit.

Between common flu and covid-19, there are overlaps and differences in symptoms.

education would help, maybe reading the Bible and prayer?

I expect that the co-pay / co-insurance costs will dissuade from over-testing.

sure but how do u tell your employer you are self quarantining? maybe some ppl want test to avoid missing work

and I called 3k for a test. I was pretty close

capitalistic health care will hurt us even more than the virus. it already did

Germany had a good working test we could have started using weeks ago. our greddy american companies who own CDC said no, well make our own test (to get more $). they created a faulty test that put us way behind

CDC/Pharma/lawyers can be our undoing

What is an N95 filtering facepiece respirator (FFR)?
An N95 FFR is a type of respirator which removes particles from the air that are breathed through it. These respirators filter out at least 95% of very small (0.3 micron) particles. N95 FFRs are capable of filtering out all types of particles, including bacteria and viruses.

BTW to reuse a N95 respirator

they are usually worn by pros for a period of 8 hrs and then discarded

but when theres shortage as long as the respirator is intact, you can reuse it

just dont wear it for very long periods of time t wear out the elastic pieces, domt get it wet/dirty, store it in a paper bag and you can even use a surgical mask on top of it to extend its lifetime

I'm not going to blame people for visiting family. If it wasn't him, Patient 0 was going to be someone else soon after. The proper place to assign blame is the Chinese government for reopening wet markets and wild animal farming only a few months after the first SARS was shown to have developed in a wet market in China.

White House told federal health agency

to classify coronavirus deliberations

treat top-level coronavirus meetings as classified,

an unusual step that has restricted information and

hampered the U.S. government’s response to the contagion,

according to four Trump administration officials.

dozens of classified discussions about such topics as the

scope of infections,

quarantines and

travel restrictions

have been held since mid-January in a high-security meeting room

“We had some very critical people who did not have security clearances who could not go,” one official said.

“These should not be classified meetings. It was unnecessary.”

Starting to accept government has left us on our own. The corporations scared to lose their bilkions so they dont want cities shut down. Im preparing to hunker down w family. Social distance and see what happens. We will probably look like crazy mofos to our friends and family but we might survive. The thing to be scared about is the small chance you or a family member requires a hospital and they are completely overwhelmed. I am not taking that chance.

Yall should be preparing to hunker down as well. Yeah it sucks but dont wait for the government to make that decision.

gonna go get some more extra food, medicines and lots and lots and lots of liquor

yeah I know liquor probably lowers your immune system but fuck it :lol

Back to reality:

Italians Are Sharing What It's Like In Italy During The Coronavirus Outbreak
BuzzFeed Staff
1. "I live in Verona, and I'm 19. I live alone because my mother and my father got it in Milan so I’ve been home alone for a month. I don’t go out other than to buy some food and maybe some cigarettes. There is no space left in intensive care so if I get really sick, they would have to remove someone else to save me since I would have a better chance of surviving. This is why I almost never go out. I don’t want to be the reason for someone's death."
—CarbonaraDude781
2. "Currently watching a university lesson from my bed, but my father went to work this morning. I'm in a region where the lockdown started officially today so it's all pretty new, let's hope people don't storm the grocery stores."
—ilPito
3. "High school student here. Schools are closed and the TV is full of ads about washing your hands and avoiding contact with other people. Each morning we have approximately three hours of video lessons from our laptop. I really want to go back to normal school now."
—blobfishlord_099
4. "I'm a final year medic and I'm graduating on Thursday over skype."
—accursedleaf
5. "I have a daughter living in Saronno, but she works in Milano. She says there has been quite a bit of panic-buying at the supermarkets. All the restaurants are pretty much empty, however, they are allowed to be open between 6 am and 6 pm (people who are seated should have at least a one-meter distance between them at restaurants). All schools and universities remain closed as well as cinemas, theaters, discos, and all church services."
—QueenDiva9
6. "I live in the heart of the Lombardy region. All my family has it and my grand-uncle died. You can hear ambulances all day and night. My uncle is in the hospital with a high fever. His wife got it as well but she is home as her symptoms are milder. The available hospital beds in intensive care have run out and doctors are making tough choices for who to try to save which is terrifying considering most of my family is old and they might not get a bed."
—MsMerdaccino
7.
8. "I live in Germany now. Yesterday I went to a pharmacy so I could get a couple of face masks just in case. The ladies there understood from my accent I wasn't German, so they asked me where I was coming from. As soon as I said I was Italian they jumped away. I felt like I needed to specify I was living here and had no contact with Italy since December. That felt bad."
—Rexam14
9. "I’m returning back to my place after I kept my girlfriend company. Thing is, her parents work and I’m scared that somehow I got it and it’s just waiting to show symptoms. The paranoia will only increase in the next few weeks. I hope when things are over we’ll invest more in public health and be more conscious about safety standards."
—NeokratosRed
10. "I am a doctor who works at one of the largest hospitals in Rome. The situation seems much worse than reported in the news. We are scared, but we continue to go to work for a sense of responsibility. We do not have suitable safeguards for our protection, such as ffp3 masks."
—bulletime
11. "I'm in the Florence airport right now trying to get back home to the US. I've been living here for six-and-a-half months studying abroad. US study abroad students have been living on the edge of our seats. It has been a really stressful, chaotic, and emotional couple of weeks for everyone. Honestly, I just broke down at the airport because I was so frustrated."
—cestlavie1215
12. "The hardest part is hearing the daily update of the number of deaths and sick people. Every day we are told that hospitals cannot accept anymore, all the hospitals here in the Lombardy region are saturated, nurses and doctors are falling sick too...if you need to go to an emergency room (even if it is not for the coronavirus) they cannot help you and this feeling is devastating."
—CharlesOnReddit

[Splits]

13. "I arrived on a train from northern Switzerland. As we approached the border with Italy, people would depart the train, but nobody would get on. This is not normal. I've taken this train many times and by the time you reach Milan, it can be standing room only. Upon arriving at Centrale, it is a ghost town. I go to my girlfriend's house and smash her multiple times over the next 72 hours. I'm back in CH safely and hope to repeat this weekend"

The US is struggling to ramp up testing for the new coronavirus, which has killed more than 4,000 people and infected 121,000 worldwide.

So far, the US has not tested as widely as other countries. As of March 8, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported only 1,707 patients had been tested.

Now, the US public health system could face another challenge: running low on the materials needed to perform the tests.
The CEO of Seattle-based Providence St. Joseph Health System told Business Insider that labs it works with don't have the materials needed to run the tests.

The Extraordinary Decisions Facing Italian Doctors

There are now simply too many patients for each one of them to receive adequate care.

Two weeks ago, Italy had 322 confirmed cases of the coronavirus. At that point, doctors in the country’s hospitals could lavish significant attention on each stricken patient.

One week ago, Italy had 2,502 cases of the virus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19. At that point, doctors in the country’s hospitals could still perform the most lifesaving functions by artificially ventilating patients who experienced acute breathing difficulties.

Today, Italy has 10,149 cases of the coronavirus. There are now simply too many patients for each one of them to receive adequate care. Doctors and nurses are unable to tend to everybody. They lack machines to ventilate all those gasping for air.

The principle they settle upon is utilitarian.

The Extraordinary Decisions Facing Italian Doctors

There are now simply too many patients for each one of them to receive adequate care.

Two weeks ago, Italy had 322 confirmed cases of the coronavirus. At that point, doctors in the country’s hospitals could lavish significant attention on each stricken patient.

One week ago, Italy had 2,502 cases of the virus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19. At that point, doctors in the country’s hospitals could still perform the most lifesaving functions by artificially ventilating patients who experienced acute breathing difficulties.

Today, Italy has 10,149 cases of the coronavirus. There are now simply too many patients for each one of them to receive adequate care. Doctors and nurses are unable to tend to everybody. They lack machines to ventilate all those gasping for air.

The principle they settle upon is utilitarian.

“Informed by the principle of maximizing benefits for the largest number,”

they suggest that “the allocation criteria need to guarantee that those patients with the highest chance of therapeutic success will retain access to intensive care.”

You ever see "Airport" bouts? From '70. There is a part there where the airport manager (Burt Lancaster) is trying to explain to a hot shot airliner pilot (Dean Martin) the reality of the allocation of $.

There is a snowstorm, worse in history to ever hit "Chicago."

"I told you this would happen. Why didn't you plan for this?"- Martin

"And I told you that you don't plan for a once in a lifetime storm. You plan for regular storms, then when a disaster hits you work around the clock, do the best you can." - Lancaster.

Same thing with Corona. You want all these beds and hospitals sitting around for the past century waiting for (Corona). No. When Corona hits you work around the clock and do the best you can.

The covid-19 problem in Italy arose from Italians cynically disrespecting, disregarding the govt's advice, which the Repugs have been telling USA citizens to do for decades "government IS the problem, not the solution" subtext: destroy govt, privatize everything

Politics matters hugely this very minute. If there is no sick leave for the working poor and some sort of welfare for small business that's going to have to decide whether to stay open or not this is going to keep expanding like wildfire as the sick have to pay rent/mortgage and put food on their tables. You cannot eat thoughts and prayers. DC has to do their best to not fuck over their fellow Americans.

I was listening to audio so don't have exact quotes but the key takeaways were:

1. I'm smart enough to know what I don't understand, so I'll defer to the experts on the measures they think we should take.
2. This impact low wage workers who work at the AAC and they will be taken care of during the off time.

All it takes is for one H-E-B employee to get the flu, not even Corona, and for H-E-B to shut that store down, even for one day, or just a few hours. There will be a mad rush to every grocery store in town.

The only benefit of Trump downplaying is that the stores haven't been rushed. Store can handle the slow waves of initiative taking individuals. There will still be a mass rush eventually though which they won't be able to handle.

It's a fine line to walk. I do wish the basic precautions to take were being pushed more. I think yesterday Pence tweeted out something that basically no Americans have seen.

Naturally, Trump’s attempt to use the flu to somehow prove the novel coronavirus isn’t so bad have involved false stats, like that the mortality rate for the flu is “much higher than” COVID-19, and easily debunked lies like that a vaccine is just around the corner. (“It’s a little like the regular flu that we have flu shots for,” he said two weeks ago. “And we’ll essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner.”) While Fauci has repeatedly countered that the actual expected timetable is 12 to 18 months, on Wednesday he was more blunt in shutting down Trump’s fantasy timeline. “No,” he said when asked if there was any merit to the president’s assertion that a vaccine might be ready in just a few months. “I made myself very clear in my opening statement.” Elsewhere, Fauci, who has served under six presidents, generally took aim at Trump’s assertion that everything is fine and that the virus will just “go away” on its own. Asked if the worst is yet to come, he responded unequivocally, “Yes, yes it is.”

People will be dicks. I went to the store today and only bought what I needed for the week. No need to hoard.

I bought six weeks of chicken, pork, and beef to throw in the deep freeze last week when it was widely apparent community spread was well under way in the US (can't stand frozen fish though). In addition to cereal, oatmeal, rice, beans, potatoes, and canned vegetables plus lots of soap. And a shitload of eggs since they'll usually be good for a month, plus they're cheap and I eat a lot of them anyways. I don't need to be out at the grocery store too often interacting with people who are working sick to make rent.

[vy65]

The law defines recklessness as knowing disregard of or indifference to a known risk. One extremely credentialed doctor who serves as a public health advisor is testifying that DJT disregarded the known risks of coronavirus but went one step further in actively disseminating incorrect information. That action is directly tied to hampering the governments response.

Many have commented that this isn’t about red or blue. I agree. This is about science and truthfully speaking to the public. Hopefully the government can get its act together because we frankly need it right now. But how can anyone look at this whole situation and not point a finger at a charlatan who’s obviously more concerned with his re-election prospects - in the least subtle way possible - at the direct expense of peoples lives?

[Winehole23]

Fauci directly contradicting WH messaging might have prompted Trump's delegation of the emergency. DJT is in way over his head after three years of diligently dismantling the civil service.
