You’re still alive!

At this point, I'm taking it 5 minutes at a time.
Yeah, it’s here- and more than we know.
Still, there’s more panic to be caused by lack of trust than by useful stats.
Anywhere from 20 to a 100 thousand ‘suspected’ cases wouldn’t surprise me. Or be threatening. Our system can handle it.
But not having info does threaten me. CDC is doing a terrible job on many levels. Maybe another department would do better.
What’s MIC?
A fascinating report.
Ping to link in post 206.
Yes, “horrifying”.
You’d think in America a doctor could ask for any test he thought necessary.
I think *Made in China*.
What’s MIC?
....
A guess only
Made In China
Thanks to all posters. Informed citizenry BUMP!
Health/life BUMP!
Comrade. You can do better than that. Only 24 Americans will die from coronavirus, while 12 million will be executed for spreading false rumors about coronavirus.
Yes, Made In China.
These doctors can make a preliminary diagnosis with chest CTs if radiologists know what to look for. They ended up doing that a lot in China with the shortage of tests.
Interesting that we’re even having this conversation. US healthcare should be better than this.
CDC bans testing of Americans that catch Coronavirus from other Americans. Only incoming travelers can be tested.
Great!!
This is confirmed in the CDC teleconference....link posted up thread.
I should clarify, US government should do better. The healthcare is at the whim of the bureaucrats. That’s the biggest problem. Is there not a private entity in the us that can manufacture the tests?
Were it not foolish to spin
the thread of present life to win
What? for ourselves who know not
if we shall breathe out the very breath we now breath in?
Trump has to go with his gut here, he cannot rely on any of his advisors.
I listened, a lot of info there. She also almost made it sound like the cruise evacuees could have been infected en route, when the guy clarified they’d been tested 48 hrs prior to the flight.
The CDC regulations frighteningly remind me of the Obamacare death panels.
Regulations kill.
And yes, this is not American.
He needs to bring in an outsider like Dr. Gottlieb or Dr. Osterholm, they know their stuff and they get what needs to happen. They both testified to the Senate and Dr. Gottlieb has been sounding the alarm on things we should be doing, like testing. But he does not appear as a nevertrumper either.
