This will not be our experience. Italy is a country with 60M people the size of Michigan. They have the oldest demographic in Europe and they were poorly prepared. They got hit hard before any social distancing went into practice.
LOL every pharmaceutical medicine has similar long lists. Go kill yourself.

Saints coach Sean Payton kicking off the nfl
They have a lot more hospital beds per person than the US
And North Star Mall is still operating.
People are going to freak on positive cases that will start being reported, but they shouldn't. It is expected, as testing starts to ramp up.
They got swamped by mostly elderly with pre-existing issues.
Well you're free to rule it out. Looking around I still don't think we're taking it as serious as we should. Nowhere close.
I don’t know and I don’t care either lol
We've practically killed our economy and shut everything down. Seems like we're taking it seriously.
Only much later will we figure out if the costs were worth it.
Lol.
Too bad we'll never know if tech was gonna be in the dance
Three Sixers too according to yahoo.
Younger people might not be terminally ill from it, but theyre contributing to its spread.not to mention the subsequent financial meldown coming....making people like me out of work...so you can drink beer on the beach?

Lol uh no, we haven't shut everything down. We're only politely asking places to shut down for now. In two weeks, it shouldn't surprise you if we're needing permission slips to be driving on the roads.

Funny and sad ..."We don't consider post-mortem tests to be a decisive factor. We work on the principle that patients are tested before they die," the RKI told AFP.

This. It's a good sign. Those people who've been around positive cases can start taking steps to reduce exposure.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...8FG0hCNe4z1xBcMore than 99% of Italy’s coronavirus fatalities were people who suffered from previous medical conditions, according to a study by the country’s national health authority.
After deaths from the virus reached more than 2,500, with a 150% increase in the past week, health authorities have been combing through data to provide clues to help combat the spread of the disease.
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte’s government is evaluating whether to extend a nationwide lockdown beyond the beginning of April, daily La Stampa reported Wednesday. Italy has more than 31,500 confirmed cases of the illness.
The new study could provide insight into why Italy’s death rate, at about 8% of total infected people, is higher than in other countries.
The Rome-based ins ute has examined medical records of about 18% of the country’s coronavirus fatalities, finding that just three victims, or 0.8% of the total, had no previous pathology. Almost half of the victims suffered from at least three prior illnesses and about a fourth had either one or two previous conditions.
More than 75% had high blood pressure, about 35% had diabetes and a third suffered from heart disease.
The median age of the infected is 63 but most of those who die are older. The average age of those who’ve died from the virus in Italy is 79.5. As of March 17, 17 people under 50 had died from the disease. All of Italy’s victims under 40 have been males with serious existing medical conditions.
While data released Tuesday point to a slowdown in the increase of cases, with a 12.6% rise, a separate study shows Italy could be underestimating the real number of cases by testing only patients presenting symptoms.
According to the GIMBE Foundation, about 100,000 Italians have contracted the virus, daily Il Sole 24 Ore reported. That would bring back the country’s death rate closer to the global average of about 2%.
Follow the link. The graph shows that nearly 75% of deaths were of people who had 2 or more pre-existing health conditions.
I would not be surprised if there are 30-40k cases by Monday. But, it's much better to be diagnosed and take steps.
So people with high blood pressure, diabetes or heart diseases are at the greatest risk of death.
Good thing we don't have any those things here
I think the high blood pressure is the biggest one.
Sucks, because hypertension is genetic for many people. My wife has it, and she's a pe e woman.
's gonna get real in trumpland.
Srsly, you're right. But I also find it telling that the average age of death reported was 79.5.
