CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19 NEW MEGA THREAD

We are screwed at this point. Take any official diagnoses and multiply by 10 to 100 for a more accurate range. Diagnoses by testing lags spreaders by about a week:

Is anyone else mad at China? All this death and suffering because of unsanitary markets that should have been shut down after SARS. Plus initial government dishonesty.

Just seems so unnecessary .

I am.

Thank you! Yes I am mad at China. Also this acts a lot like a bio weapon that got loose. Now we are praising them because so many people died off over there? But politics and our dependence on cheap stuff from China ...

Be careful with the JHU map. There is a spoofed site that delivers malware. Thanks Russia!

Are you an expert on bioweapons? Thought not.

5% of the ill patients need critical care. 35 beds per 100,000 is very different than 5% (5,000 people).

Your math is based on illogicality. 100% of the population is not getting the virus. Not even in Wuhan.

The problem is if 100 percent of the people who are going to get Corona get it at the same time. No one says all humans will get it. The problem is TIMING.

I've been going to the same site, from my history, ever since cuccinelli Tweeted it out. So, I feel good about the safety of the site I'm going to. That said...

Italy data keeps disappearing! I'm sure it can easily be explained as a data feed problem. But um, it can make you momentarily go to the conspiracy darkside

I hope folks are doing it like you or bookmarked it. Poor Italy! I hope the US has a better course but not to sure it will be.

The Brazilian president who had dinner with Trump at Mar-a-Lago last weekend has reportedly tested positive. This is in addition to his communications chief (who was also at the dinner) testing positive yesterday.

Yeah and Trump didn’t look too great on TV the other night even for himself. I’m convinced he is sick.

That dinner with the Brazilian President was discussed at great length in the Fashion forum, because Ivanka was at the same table with Trump and the Brazilian guys wearing a really unflattering dress the color the Irish Spring soap. (I personally liked the color, but I digress...). Anyway, the picture was posted repeatedly, and they were all sitting pretty closely, Trump, Jared and Ivanka with the two Brazilian guys and a bunch of other old guys. I actually am wondering if one of the American conservatives gave it to the Brazilians, after having picked it up at CPAC conference.

Seems almost impossible that none of them caught it.

Well, we have three times the hospital beds for critical care than Italy does. And apparently the Italian average was even lower in Northern Italy, where the virus is heavily concentrated. The Italian problem was insufficient hospital resources for the very sick. American healthcare has long been proclaimed as wasteful and extravagant and filled with excessive facilities and resources, but this is the one time where it's going to help us.
