The worst case scenario is not the Black Death, thank God. But if it overwhelms the medical system people who might survive with adequate medical attention are going to die. We have already taken measure sufficient to prevent the death toll from running into the millions barring something really unpleasant, like a super deadly mutation. But this could easily run into the six figure range.
gee, you got all those teachers and state workers staying home with pay....non essential workers....why not ask them to “volunteer” governor?
My sister is a nurse in a Chicago suburb and is saying the same thing. No supplies. No protocols. Doctors refusing to enter patient rooms and making the nurses do everything. Management more concerned about covering their asses than supporting their staff. She’s in tears with frustration and overwork. Says she’s quitting hospital work after this is over.
MSG....open it up!
Who didn’t see this coming?
Prayers for NY/NYC.
Good Lord!
It's a paper mask with a rubber band!
Thanks. It's that simple. They are either out of beds or getting close to it. They are either out of respirators or getting close to it. HCW are using their PPE for up to a week. Why discuss the number of angels on the head of pin when these facts are real? Unbelievable.
It's like Baghdad Bob debating whether the Americans are 500 yards away, 5 miles away or 25 miles away.
If it is like WA State, there would be about 110,000 tested. We are 93% negative.
No, because they tell you that you meet the criteria
Fearper- I like that name.
my daughters friend was over the past couple of days as school is out...her father is a surgeon in Westchester County Medical Center and her sister works in administration at the hospital...
the sister in the hospital said its crazy the number of people besieging the hospital because they “think” they have the wuhan virus...
i said this is no different than the hysteria of people hoarding toilet paper...all these people rushing to the hospital because they “think” they have the wuhan virus...
I think there must be some stock of this drug. However, won’t be nearly enough, for the entire country.
Extreme measures being taken, now/soon to hold off/flatten the curve....maybe this drug is being manufactured by us/allies, as we speak.
"At day6 post-inclusion, 100% of patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin combination were virologicaly cured comparing with 57.1% in patients treated with hydroxychloroquine only, and 12.5% in the control group (p<0.001)."

Yet nowhere in this article did it mention what was a “surge”? How many of the 8,000 positive tests actually required hospitalization, ICU and/or ventilators. With the propensity to test positive and be asymptomatic and all.

No. These articles never say such things as facts and information.
NY is 46 deaths out of 8406 cases = 0.55%.
Okay, but it’s early yet. And NY has 0 recoveries so far.
First case in MY was March 1. So 20 days in. 0 recoveries.
I go to one hospital because they have free coffee.
I go to another for their french fries...
That’s just me...
This thing is being used and abused at both ends. I am very sick and sad for who and what we are as a society right now.
“The statistics of getting hit by a car are low so I practice soccer on highways.”
Lol.
I don’t think the statistics are low for being on the highway.
Fail.
