What is really frightening is how little anyone is paying attention to or even knowledgeable that this is happening. It is crazy to watch. Americans completely oblivious to what could, possibly be mayhem. Bring it up to someone, you will get that deer in the headlights look, some comment about how they don’t watch the news or some vague comment about that “thing in China”.
when this was at 100 people I told everyone when it would reach 200, then 400, then 800 (dead)
The math is simple.
It will reach 1,600 dead by this weekend, if they don’t have a handle on it.
Past a certain point the mortality rate will increase because the hospitals treating the critically ill are already full.
The numbers are starting to get inaccurate because the hospitals are overcrowded so they are not getting to everyone.
They build a 1000-bed hospital in just days, and it was too small to handle just the increase of one day’s infect (+3000)
If they do not have it under control, and it continues to double every 3 or 4 days (maybe 5 days now) it could reach 1 million dead by April.
I have the same feeling. Poeple think it’s the flu or even SARS.
But that might be a good thing. No panic. That’s why China is lying to its people — keep them in check, or there’d be food riots, economic collapse, you name it.
