I am in Ahmedabad, India.
I am still recovering from the Chinavirus. At home. I did not need extra Oxygen but as a severe asthamatic, my doc started me on Remdesirvir as soon as the +ve report was received.
It is clear that the bug doing the rounds is extremely infectious. The caseloads are a factor of 10x to the govt reports as cases like mine are never counted because they are not reported. Unlike the US, we can see the doc of our choice and take the medicine we need.
The Death rate is NOT 10x but is defintely more than double the official number or even triple in some areas, because the deceased were never officially registered as Chinavirus infected.
There are some horror stories but nowhere near as many as the media reports. The media is out to get the PM because they sense he is vulnerable. They will be actually propelling him to bigger electoral victories. Ironically, it is the different elections in many states that are responsible for this round of infections. The PM has long been calling for simultaneous elections to all elected bodies to cut costs and reduce populist measures. Hopefully people will listen.
Thanks for your response and really glad you are getting better. Stay safe and stay strong. It is always great when someone on the ground responds. Be well FRiend.
Stay safe.
