Yeah, no prior data prepares you for a never before seen virus. That's why there's no vaccine.
It was the opposite with h1n1. The elderly were low risk, and young people and kids were highest.
To me, it's worse when the kids are at risk.

Unfortunately, true.
I don't mean to say testing is unimportant, I'm just saying Winehole is too focused on it as some kind of solution. Testing supposed to be widely available next week unless there is another up.
My wife has been fielding calls all week from worried pts with allergies. Most everyone in San Antonio is going to want to be tested.
Your man on Hannity is gonna get some his own voters killed with like this.
The spread of the virus Darrin, the spread of the virus. This is what most epidemiologists do. And then accurately communicate what we might expect.
The people who do what we might expect to see in the future you are on the molecular biology end. Every virus could be called novel.
The people who study viruses are called, virologists. They can overlap, but these are the people who are important in proposing a proper test, proposing a proper vaccine. Somebody has to figure out how the virus itself works on a molecular level.
So again, you are just wrong.

I didn't suggest testing was a solution to a pandemic, I said they would be useful, as soon as we can get them.
They are incredibly important.
If you know a person with clear symptoms and you have an accurate test you can go back and find out who they have been in the closest contact with and specifically test these people. We can find out so much working backwards.
You dont need to test people who have just have a runny nose as seems to be presented. Or just want to be tested for the of it.
Nope, Darrin and SnakeBoy say there's nothing we can do about it.
Drumpf gonna get people killed, y'all.
Then they dont get it. It is important when this happens again.
OMG. Tests cost money? Is that it?
It could be used for a proper wall to keep all the infected Latinos out.
CNN = Coronavirus News Network
Seriously, turn it on right now
How is saying a false number is false going to get people killed?
Is Dr. Fauci trying to kill people by saying the same thing? He was Obama's go to guy also.
LOL the other day I was at a restaurant I like eating curry rice and I ordered it extremely y. Only after my nose started running and I was wiping away sweat of my forehead did I realize how bad that looked with all the stories about the corona patients at Lackland.
Trump has no good faith basis for saying the fatality rate is way under one percent, that COVID-19 is no different from the seasonal flu, and that it's ok to go to work if you're sick.
If the WHO estimate is wrong, the responsible thing to do isn't to make up a number and announce it on TV.
Yeah, even if people just have allergy symptoms, I'm probably gonna keep my distance. Better safe than sorry.
Trump doesn't he's just making up.
What's your case?
Link to WHO estimate please
I've already provided link to Dr Fauci's NEJM article.
Were you in Iran? (2nd vid)
Trump said it was 3.4% on Hannity, did he goof?
Do you think Trump making up on TV about a pandemic is reasonable and responsible?
If that's what he said then yes but you just posted he said it was likely much lower and was going to kill people because of it.
