I wrote a long reply to that troll, but didn’t post it.

If he posts again, I’ll send it.

Lisinopril also an ACE inhibitor.

I take a “baby dose” 5mg but might drop it entirely as I am working out (sad not to be able to go to the gym :( ) and in better shape. Will call my doctor and ask.

My post was to Rummychick, but feel free to add upper opinion — as I am happy when pearl clutches expose themselves. I think you are a jackass, in the internet would, opinions are just that. I am sure that my work for my patients speak for itself.

Pleasant evening.

It seems the respiratory distress numbers are the most important of all, as the need of ventilation or intubation is what overwhelms the hospitals.

Mayor David Holt declares state of emergency for Oklahoma City amid coronavirus outbreak On Sunday, state Health Department officials announced that three more Oklahomans had tested positive for the COVID-19 coronavirus, increasing the state's total to seven. The three new cases were confirmed in Cleveland County, Payne County and Tulsa County. During Sunday's news conference, Holt said health officials believe the confirmed case of the coronavirus in Cleveland County spread locally. "Local public health officials have consistently maintained that this was the threshold that should trigger even more proactive measures to protect public health," Holt said. https://www.koco.com/article/okc-county-health-department-holds-news-conference-amid-covid-19-coronavirus-outbreak/31645247#

Thanks for posting this. So I will show my arithmetic for the pearl clutchers:

764 (+) / 10,000 tests = 7.6% incidence
42 deaths / 764 (+) = 5.51% rate (probably spuriously high as sample is still somewhat small. BUT....

5.5% of 7.6% = 0.3% population death rate (Deaths/total tests)

Even if the (+) rate is 10% transmission, that makes the true death rate 0.5%, tracking I nine with South Korea.

Stop feeding the troll. It just fuels that person to post more bs. Ignore and they go away.

Still the tail end of flu season and CV is still not very widely spread. We’re trying to keep it that way. Gonna be a lot of ILIs that actually turn out to BE the flu. Your silly stats are not relevant.

Go back to studying your own flatulence.

Life at the epicenter of N.J.’s coronavirus outbreak

Holy Name CEO Maron, with 11 current cases and six patients in the ICU, says state may not realize how serious this: ‘There is absolute reason to be extremely cautious, to be very concerned’

By Tom Bergeron

Holy Name’s 11 positives are all males — and all between the ages of 28 and 48.

We have had something like 20,000 posts on this subject, and one thing has become very very clear:

Anyone who focuses on death rates is either a newbie or has not done their homework.

The issue is _not_ death rates, it is the stress on the health care system caused by people (of all ages) who will need major medical intervention in ICUs.

Once the health care system collapses, folks with every health issue known to man will be subject to vastly increased risk of death—but it will not be coronavirus which kills them.

We have gone over this ground—over and over and over and over again...
