    Good thing they brought the refrigerator trucks.
    Next step is the mass graves like Iran and NYC.

    Honestly if I'm dying of this I'll just tell them to send me to the oven once I kick. Normally I'd just request the Louis CK thing and donate my body so a pervert gets an hour with a dead body and can do whatever he wants so he can get it out of his system, but probably not a good idea in the case of COVID to do so. So just burn me and throw me in the Folgers can tbh.

    You and I both have a 99.99% chance of absolutely nothing happening to us from covid-19.

    Very doubtful it's anywhere near that high. Just saying, I'm fine with the oven and the coffee can if it's my time.

    Lol, ok.

    I still only know of one individual who had it, and only from second-hand knowledge.

    A very large number of us aren't catching it and getting sick. That doesn't make for a good news story, tho.

    The hospitalization rate for 50-59 demo is 36% with underlying conditions and 10% with no underlying conditions. The estimated total infected thus far is 7.5% of the US population or 25 million people, so about 7x more than the official count. So if you're in that age group with underlying conditions, you have a 5.14% chance of being hospitalized. If you're in the healthy demo, about a 1.4%. Not to mention that even mild cases that don't require hospitalization are shown to cause some pretty severe after effects.

    I'd ballpark it as: Unhealthy 50-59 year old: 10-20 percent chance of a severe outcome. Healthy 50-59 year old: 3-8 percent chance of severe outcome.

    By the way, there was some nursing home in S.A. that recently had a bunch of asymptomatic cases. Can't remember the name of it.

    Flip that, say you have a 3-8% chance of survival and you're thinking you're a dead manPERIOD. Somehow that percentage on the other side is scary.

    Not trying to underestimate the risk. If you're unhealthy, particularly obese, with underlying conditions, you're definitely at risk from covid-19. I just don't happen to fall into that category.

    A lot of obese people in S.A. tho.

    What worries me more now about Covid is that it isn't a singular respiratory disease, "a cold on steroids" like we once thought. This attacks your entire body and as I said, we're discovering all sorts of lingering side effects due to clotting that even people who have had mild cases start to develop.

    It's kind of disturbing how little is really known about why some people get clots leading to strokes and heart attacks and those are happening to people outside of the supposed high risk group. 4-5 months ago everyone was saying just wash your hands, don't touch your face, that it's mostly spread by surface contact. Now it looks like most of the infections are coming from airborne transmission instead. And there is a lot of controversy over whether it's droplets or aerosol transmission that's getting most people. 4-5 months ago it was just thought to be a respiratory disease, now we see COVID can you in so many different ways. We're still likely to be really early in the pandemic and SARSCov-2 keeps throwing us curveballs.

    I think docs better understand how to treat people now, if they treat EARLY enough.

    If you go to hospital already ARDS, you're probably screwed.

    SAN ANTONIO — It took just one positive test to turn Jessica Garcia’s family’s world upside down.

    “A family member was experiencing symptoms, and what we thought were just allergies turned out to be Covid-19,” Garcia said.

    Her 6-year-old daughter Jelisa Valdez is one on the over 21,000 people in Bexar County to test positive for coronavirus.
    “The toughest thing I’ve been dealing with is being away from my daughter. I’m so used to her hugging me, kissing me, and just being away from her in separate rooms has affected me a lot,” Garcia said.

    Now Garcia is left with the difficult task of taking care of her little girl, while trying to keep the rest of the household virus free.

    “The best thing we can do is too keep her hydrated and let her rest,” Garcia said.

    The good news, while the family continues to wait out their quarantine, Valdez is feeling much better.

    “It’s hard to believe that she tested positive because of how she’s acting. She’s laughing, she’s playing, she’s in her room, she’ll turn up the music, she’s cleaning. Just acting like a normal child,” Garcia said.

    Which is why Garcia says parents should be more cautious with their kids now, than ever before.

    “You can’t really tell that she’s sick, which is concerning because parents out there might not know that their child is positive and could be acting normal just like my daughter,” Garcia said
