To elaborate on asymptomatic cases: Dr. Fauci said that not long ago we didn’t know if a person without symptoms could have the disease. We now know this absolutely possible.

And he said we did not know whether a person could contract the disease from a person without symptoms, and we now know this is also possible.

While the risk to Americans is still low, these are important considerations in why aggressive actions to keep it that way are being taken.

Wow the test in not 100%. They are trying to brief without creating a panic. I guess they are doing a good job.

These guys have been working this since Monday and it shows. I’ll be the first to say that I’m glad the president has the most qualified people in his administration working this. I would be much more concerned if the task force was a forced 50% women, 15% black, 15% Hispanic, 15% LGBT, etc:

I like listening to Fauci. He completely admits there’s stuff they don’t know yet.
Plus being a native NYer his accent sounds like home lol.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
