2M ? ! ?


Everything I've read coming out of Iran makes that # believable. They are being decimated over there.


I believe that, but if Iran is really around 2M, what is China's real number?


Hell I believe China over Iran.

Case rates per million...China at 56; South Korea @137 and Italy @97; Iran 70; US @ 1

“It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honor, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”

. Better question: if Iran is really around 2MM, what's the actual death rate?

Let me guess. You didn't bother looking at tests run per million.

Can't have cases if we don't test. This isn't rocket science.

Hate to be that guy, but is a certain race affected more? I know Italy, but they are all Old in Italy so that makes sense.

this is good advice and what we need to be pushing in absence of wide scale testing

if you are at risk, shelter in place until we get this **** better understood

there is some truth in that sometimes too much testing is its own vector, putting positive cases in waiting rooms

there are ways around this. nurses coming to your doorstep, in home kits, drive thru swabs... but that Infrastructure isn't in place in addition to the testing apparatus

Yep. SK has drive through testing. Bill Gates is getting in home testing on the way for Seattle.

And I get what you are saying, completely. But I was responding to a boastful praise of our "low" case count. It's a facade.

Probably so with the way things are trending.

I'm supposed to go to D.C. for my capstone presentation in late April. It's kinda looking like that might not happen now.

I honestly think the best advice we can give until testing gets better faster is to tell old people to shut in like hermits and only come out for groceries or medical emergencies

take the cohort at most risk out of the equation. that won't tank the economy. it'll save lives. most would be retired or close.

just Netflix and chill till May

Quote:

Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune are taking precautions against the spread of novel coronavirus: Both programs will tape without a live audience "in the near term," our sister site Variety reports.

The decision was made for several reasons: Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek is immunocompromised after being diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer last year, putting him at greater risk should he come into contact with the virus. The safety of audience members was also a concern, as they tend to skew older and often have come from out of town, sometimes via a flight, to attend the game shows.

The Sony Pictures Television-produced programs are slated to tape episodes through mid-April.

"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

So you've got an entire country under quarantine, an NHL team that will be playing in an empty stadium and the capital city of one of the largest states in the nation banning gatherings of over 2,500 people for 2 months... but you'll still have a handful of posters tell you that this really isn't anything.

There's social media and MSM that has created a huge mass hysteria across the country. That's the most of it. Oh and it's killed elderly people with underlying conditions

The Asia Times reported today that South Korea has a mortality rate of a "mere" 0.7%. And that is probably high because they are only able to test 20,000 per day. So, the denominator in their 0.7% is too low.

I would think that is very good news.

The response from a bunch of entities not being guided by objective, rational scientific reasoning really have bearing on nature or severity of the outbreak.

This may or may not be a "big deal", but the fact is all of this is being driven by media fueled hysteria.
