If a 40 athlete can go on a vent after contracting COVID and the flu at once then I wonder what the rest of America is going to look like come fall when flu season starts.
Here's a pretty accurate chart, tbh...
The CDC surrenders:
COVID-19 spreading too rapidly to be brought under control
principal deputy director of the CDC, Dr. Anne Schuchat.
“We’re not in the situation of New Zealand or Singapore or Korea
where a new case is rapidly identified and
all the contacts are traced and
people are isolated who are sick and people who are exposed are quarantined and
they can keep things under control,” said Schuchat.
“We have way too much virus across the country for that right now, so it’s very discouraging.”

Testing czar says coronavirus surge is straining testing capacity
Brett Giroir, the coronavirus testing czar, said Wednesday that the United States' coronavirus testing capacity is at risk of being overwhelmed in some states by a surge in new infections and increased surveillance efforts in nursing homes and jails.
“It is absolutely correct that some labs across the country are reaching or near capacity,” Giroir said. “Recent data from several states indicate rising infections and now an uptick in hospitalizations and death, even as other states and the great majority of counties are maintaining a low infection burden."
The percentage of people testing positive has ed in recent days in several states — including Arizona, Florida and Texas. That's a sign that the virus is spreading rapidly.

Trump Admin Scales Back Mandate That Health Insurers Cover COVID Tests
the Trump administration has moved to place limits on who insurers are required to cover COVID-19 tests for.
CMS said that insurers no longer have to cover COVID-19 testing when employers mandate a test before an employee can return to work, or
when someone is tested as part of a public health surveillance program.
the Trump administration has failed to put the weight of the federal government behind scaling up widespread COVID-19 testing, handing that task to state and local governments with minimal contributions from the feds.
as indicative of a bungled federal response to the pandemic — and, specifically, to providing testing capacity — leaving CMS to sort out questions of health insurance policy that are ill-suited to the public health needs of a national pandemic.
Through two laws,
Congress mandated at the start of the outbreak that health insurers would fully cover COVID-19 tests — with no copays.
But the mandate came with no additional government support attached, requiring insurance companies to foot the bill for at least part of the national testing plan.
“The statue says insurance companies have to pay, period — you can debate whether you think its good policy, but that’s the statute,”
“But if you have to get a test to go back to work, or are subject to community-wide testing, or you don’t have any symptoms
— you want to get a test because maybe you want your kid to get a test to go to summer camp or you’re traveling and you want to get a test before you go —
insurance companies would not be required to cover in those cir stances,”

Is COVID-19 Testing Free? One Very Important Thing To Know
There are usually three steps you need to go through to get a test result, each carries a separate charge to you or your insurance.
- Most of the time, you will need an initial screening which could be done virtually via telemedicine.
- If determined appropriate, you will be directed to a clinic or drive through where you will be swabbed or get blood drawn.
- Your sample will be sent to a lab, where it gets analyzed to determine if you are positive or negative
Because there are three steps, there are three separate charges that will occur. According to major insurance carriers' websites, the screening and clinic visit are free, but
the lab cost depends on your insurance policy.
We did an independent study to verify this and found
a wide range of scenarios where the patient was charge $100 by the lab or up to $2300.

Oh just wait for the bill for all these people who had to go in.
And taxpayers in SA wait till Bexar County Hosp charges you.
You will then realize how the promises of the orange God to fix health care with the biggest bestest plan that never was... was never funny.
If you had not called it, you would be right in along with the rest of them drinking the chlorox.
Such doom & gloom in this thread. Let's try to be optimistic.
Assuming actual cases is 20x confirmed cases and deaths is reasonably accurate, we only have ~500k deaths to go before the US can move on from the covid era.
So cheer up people.
