The beans and rice were very good.

And I can attest to the fact that they go very well with scotch and water!

That is because you probably have a stash at home already.

People in other parts,of the country don’t.

The crazy is mostly in parts of the country that don’t have ‘canes or week long blizzards.

When people were downplaying mortality vis-a-vis China by talking about hygiene, sanitation, smoking, etc. they often forget one of the advantages China has — lots of high-tech medical equipment.

Ventilators, respirators, oxygen mixing doo-hickies.
Stuff they produce and probably have warehoused that saved a high number of the complicated cases.

Sounds delish. Like it would be very moist, not too sweet and complex in flavor.

Ronan Kelly is talking about something similar on FluTrackers. A lot of ILI that tested negative for the flu.

Yup.

And now what we have is what we have because they’re not going to send us anything else.

Not drugs

not equipment

not anything to fight this.

Actually he was a cardiac surgeon.

I don’t remember the circumstances of his getting it.

Just that he wasn’t ‘elderly’ and you know he got whatever the top notch care they had to give.

The confirmed cases-to-death rate for the regular flu in this country was almost 10%.

The confirmed case-to-death rate is totally meaningless since most cases of any flu go unreported.

The live numbers on SKstill have the death rate at around 0.8:

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

It makes NO difference whatsoever if the confirmed death rate is 0/7 or 0.9 as the actual number is small fraction of that.

Yeah, all is being done now after the initial eff-up with testing.

Now it’s just a hope and a prayer.

Maybe, but we don’t know that.
We do know the pitiful state of the other factors.

South Korea is urbanized dense, small, and with very modern infrastructure throughout.

You're wrong. That confirmed case to confirmed death rate.

Most cases of any flu GO UNREPORTED. So, the actual rate in SK is small fraction of that.
