Seems like the local health department in DC is the problem


WTF? Keeping the numbers as low as possible?


Virginia is also democratically run now.


So are Florida and other red states doing more testing than the blue states?


Dunno. But we are now talking about the exposure of incompetence in local health departments and communications issues. You can blame Trump if you want, but given the same things happened during the Ebola crisis, I would say that's probably not smart.


Yes, I remember the terrible mismanagement of the Ebola crisis, with hundreds infected and tens dead...

On second thought, no I don't remember that.


There was definitely similar hysteria with Ebola.


You can tell who the Fox News viewers are. Yes, Fox was needlessly hysterical about Ebola because it helped their anti-Obama agenda. And now those same Fox viewers don't believe that coronavirus is a problem because they were fooled before.

So sad.

500,000 cases, only a few thousand needing hospital treatment. By mid April people will realize NBD.


500,000 by April is 2 million by early May. With 20% requiring hospitalization and poof--not a single open hospital bed in the USA.



Numbers don?t indefinitely trend upwards. China has barely any new cases, and South Korea now also seeing a decline.


China is basically a prison, in case you haven't notice. LOCKDOWN. You think you'll get anything at all like that here? As if.



everyone that quotes China and points to that as a reason not to worry about it is either purposely trying to confuse the situation or they're outright ignorant.

They can easily trend upwards to the level of the flu--that's 40,000,000 in case you didn't know.

No, the hysteria about Ebola was hysteria.

This is planning and paying attention to current events.


Actually Ebola was much scarier, mortality rate was over 60 percent and it easily spread to health care workers. There was a few weeks where things looked extremely dangerpus


I read that it was because Ebola was so dangerous to an individual, and everybody who got it showed symptoms, it was much easier to control the spread.

They trend upwards until enough people have had it and cleared the virus from their systems that herd immunity kicks in. If you want to compare us to China then you really need to start seeing the steps China took happen here. Everyone is locked in their homes and only one person may leave once a month to get food. Those draconian steps will NEVER EVER EVER happen here.

Really? I have zero recollection of a similar panic. Did schools close or did Amtrak have to reduce their train frequency or...

That's because China and South Korea have reacted MUCH more vigorously than we are, have more capacity and willingness to take drastic measures, and, in the case of South Korea (and maybe even China) have better medical systems than the U.S.

"Few thousand" = 10% = 50,000

There are fewer than 100,000 ICU beds in the whole country.

Chill. You?re being irresponsible spreading this ridiculous misinformation. I guess that would be your aim, though...
