LT is out today.
Yesterday's thread is here:

What is CFR?
Lookner retweet:
ABC7 Eyewitness News
@ABC7
#BREAKING Children’s Hospital Los Angeles confirms it is treating a patient between 6 and 9 years old with novel #coronavirus https://abc7.la/38NvkcH
It was the safety director of the whole building.
I left when he went rambling on to another subject.
Incredible.
I use the word “autopilot” to describe that type of management.
A lot of public officials are there as well.
Di Blasio doesn’t really get it, saying you need prolonged contact with someone. Then he tells people not to ride the subway, with no other real alternative for many.
The posters they are putting up are incomplete and therefore misleading. They say to wash hands but don’t mention that you must use water that is at least warm. They say don’t touch your mouth, eyes, or nose, but touching your face at all is problematic, as the little buggers travel, and should have mentioned ears.
Sneezing will spread it if you have it, but it is not a symptom. Tiredness and headache are symptoms, but they never mention those.
I wish they all would read FR before making pronouncements.
I love that. Thanks for making me laugh.
New CT data—from 6 positive yesterday to 11 positive today-136 total tested—rather even age distribution.

I can’t even imagine the heartbreak that many of those athletes are feeling right now.
Worse than the general public are the so-called corona threads aside from this one.
about time....
We have had many posts here about how “symptoms” give you only a 50% chance of identifying a positive CV person.
They had 697 positives on the Diamond Princess cruise ship—only half of them had symptoms!
The public and media reporting on this topic has been awful—partly to avoid panic, I think...
Just to be clear, the folks without symptoms are quite capable of being spreaders.
In fact, they can _never_ show symptoms and infect _lots_ of people, and no-one would ever know...
I really wonder if its a certain medication that sets people up for the virus.....steroids are often used for astham/copd..it lowers your immunity....
some of those nursing home patients were probably so debilitated that they couldn't even turn over by themselves...easy to get pneumonia like that....
Litigation time!
Lookner:
A child in Rhode Island has tested positive for coronavirus after getting an autograph from one of the NBA players who have also contracted the virus
Case Fatality Rate.
Oh boy, and right there is why pro sports have been postponed- liability.
Somebody mentioned this a while back—when the WHO declared this a pandemic then the “reasonable” standard became everybody who was not tested negative had the disease.
Then litigation could begin in earnest...
OK
I thought maybe
Code of Federal Regulations
or
Council on Foreign Relations
(why I hate acronyms)
I posted yesterday about a doctor who thinks you have to have a fever to have the virus. People have died from this without ever having had a fever.
