“JUST IN: Santa Clara County Public Health in California has announced autopsy results showing a patient who died on Feb. 6 had COVID-19 — 23 days before the first novel coronavirus death was declared in the U.S.”
Let’s do the math. When was the 1st Sars2 death in U.S.?
Subtract 23 days.
=?
Early January?
Was this person visiting from China, a recent traveler to China or ??
And is the report even accurate?
Antibody tests are crazy inaccurate unless there is a high number of infected.
And the Titanic was unsinkable.
Abbott Launches Third COVID-19 Test, a Laboratory-Based Antibody Blood Test That Will Ship in the U.S. Starting Tomorrow - Apr 15, 2020 https://abbott.mediaroom.com/2020-04-15-Abbott-Launches-Third-COVID-19-Test-a-Laboratory-Based-Antibody-Blood-Test-That-Will-Ship-in-the-U-S-Starting-Tomorrow#.Xp_nlCcHRGg.twitter …
Not sure we’re talking about the same test. It’ll be awhile before an accurate one is widely available but it couldn’t come soon enough!
Early numbers out of China provinces outside Wuhan city showed 50 infected per death. So there should have been 50 infected in Santa Clara on Feb 6th.
IDK “China numbers”, so …
May be. Maybe not.
And pickup truck drivers:
Hospital delivers [flubro] bodies to Philly medical examiner in the open back of a pickup truck
The horror of the coronavirus pandemic took an especially macabre turn on Sunday afternoon when a Ford pickup truck pulled up behind the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office with five or six bagged bodies stacked in its open cargo bed.
Doesn’t matter. The infection ratio in the population makes a huge difference in the accuracy of antibody teats.
Certainly surprised me.
Wow! Sanitize after that keypad use, or at least wash your hands!
****************************************************************************
For sure. A person could also take their own wipes and some Kleenex with them. Wipe the key pad, use the Kleenex to protect you hands when punching it, and toss the Kleenex in trash.
Immediately wipe hands or use hand sanitizer and then again before getting into the car. Wash hands immediately when you get home.
sounds like they found Santa Clara patient zero.
Great link!
“The Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed that a transfer of human remains from a local hospital had arrived in “an unapproved manner.” “
Gettin’ crazy...how can there still be people who think this is no worse than the flu?
US records lowest coronavirus-related deaths in 2 weeks
Monday marked the lowest number of coronavirus-related fatalities in the U.S. in two weeks, just days after the number of deaths had spiked to 4,591 in a single day.
According to Johns Hopkins University, the U.S. lost 1,433 people to coronavirus on April 20, adding to the overall death toll of 42,364.
According to the data, nearly 93 percent of all U.S. deaths from the pandemic have occurred in the past three weeks, 44 percent of which have occurred over the last seven days.
With mitigation, it isn’t LOL!
You can’t win with idiots unless you adopt their viewpoints...

UK coronavirus: Death toll in England and Wales 41% higher than government figures
The true death toll from coronavirus in England and Wales up to April 10 was about 41% higher than the UK government’s daily update, according to data released by the country’s Office of National Statistics (ONS).
The daily updates on the government’s website only include deaths in hospitals — not other locations, including hospices, care homes and private residences. They also don’t account for the lag in reporting some deaths.
The weekly data released by the ONS records deaths where coronavirus is mentioned on the death certificate — even if only suspected. The latest ONS data for deaths up to April 10 (but recorded by April 18) is 13,121.
