“I have reviewed my posts. you put in quotes that my response is you lie. I have never used those words and it goes to show you that you misrepresent what has been said in a dramatic way in order to prove your point — true manipulation.”

My post was to reasonisfaith, and it was him I quoted. You were second on the recipient list since I referred to you in the post.

Reading comprehension. But I admit that one might be trickier for you.

As an intensivist, we are planning day for what would happen with increased demand. We are looking at using anesthesia circuits in OR for vents if need be, We are looking at several contingencies. I think the data point towars not becoming overwhelmed. We did not get overwhelmed with H1N1, and this is not presently as serious as H1N1. So historically, I think we will be OK.

But lets assume for the moment that we get overwhelmed. Can we transfer people to outlying hospital with telemedicine? Probably, can we think outside of the box, most likely. Are we preparing, yes we are. But I truly believe we are extrapolating numbers that are not Bourne out with the data.

Italy — socialized medicine, different cultural norms — and something I did not know, the oldest population in the EU. It makes sense that they would be in trouble. Perhaps what we should do is collect our resources at paces that have large elderly populations, South Florida, Scottsdale, and and places that are demographically old.

I posted your words to a post where I said that Gobert and Mitchell had tested positive.

You said they had colds

You are dangerous. And I would probably report you to the Medical board if I had your license number.

You are on the internet posing as a LICENSED 3 times certified Physician giving out inaccurate diagnosis and misleading the public.

I do believe you are a Dr.

I would fire you if you were mine.

Well, Rummychick the self proclaimed expert on everything is quick to point out the NBA player is is (+) and yet offers no follow up. Tom Hanks, (age 61, Diabetes Mellitus, risk factors) is fine and tweeting he is nearly recovered. 90% of cases remains asymptomatic or self limited. That is what the CDC and WHO say, but that is not fitting the narrative of the anti-trumpers, and our good friends Rummychick and her cohort.

For those who many have missed it, here is a good database of Covid-19 related research articles.

Nope, you are incorrect offhand. Most people site Influenza at 0.1%. If you follow the numbers based on Fauci — 1% is 10x more lethal than influenza — making it 0.1%.

Epidimiolgy — what is the true number of cases. That is the death rate.
Science

I do not hold myself out as a 3 times certified physician.

Nor do I claim Gobert and Mitchell have a cold.

That is YOU

Real doctors are not supposed to give diagnoses when they have not personally examined the patient. Supposed to be unethical. Armchair diagnosis, I believe it’s called.

Here locally in NW Washington, many folks are losing their jobs temporarily or having their hours reduced drastically. Driving thru Seattle is easy now, horrible before this, people are avoiding crowds except at grocery stores and Costco (Cabellas too).

A lot of grocers are trying very hard to find help - Fred Meyer, Safeway, etc. They need workers, they have supplies coming in daily.

Our service sector is not going to die. It is going to realign.

Food. Ammo. Firearms. Home entertainment. Bars, restaurants, indoctrination centers (schools) closing. Maybe America will learn about raising families and staying home. It hasn’t been that way since WWII.

You interviewed 30 doctors before you found one who would cater to you. In the immortal words of Winston Churchill: Lady, if you were my wife, I would drink it.

Sure the nation has heard from people.

There is a young girl who had symptoms that are not typical..tingling comes to mind.

She only knew she had it because she entered a study.

She recovered.
