Obviously, the coronavirus story changes by the moment. But here is a snapshot in time of coronavirus deaths, as reported by CDC and in news reports.
The majority of U.S. deaths to date (31 of 40) have occurred among the elderly, sick in Washington State nursing homes or long term care facilities.
A majority of the Washington State deaths (27 of 31) occurred in King County.
A majority of the King County deaths in Washington State (22 of 31) occurred at the same elderly nursing facility in Kirkland. This large cluster in one facility is under investigation.
There have also been three deaths in Snohmish County, and one in Grant County (Washington State).
Oh, and did I say, she's also a beautiful woman.
“Real” journalist I might add.
The average age of U.S. coronavirus fatalities is 80, according to the U.S. Surgeon General.
Pubic health officials have not released the exact ages of some coronavirus fatalities. But all are above age 50. No babies, children, youths, or middle-aged people in the U.S. have been reported to have died from coronavirus, so far.
I been looking over if a FReeper has posted they have coronavirus.
Would that make them a CoronaFReeper?
If I get it I will post a vanity.
That’s probably the best way to put it.
At this point, none in Minnesota. We’ve had nine confirmed cases.
The last I heard was one of those was in serious condition but AFAIK, the rest are at home getting treatment and self-quarantining.
stories of coworkers and friends.
There is someone I havent seen posting that is a fireman who visits ground zero nursing home in Washington. Havent seen him post for a bit might although he might have. dont remember his exact alias..fireman with numbers
The majority of U.S. deaths to date (31 of 40) have occurred among the elderly, sick in Washington State nursing homes or long term care facilities.
So we’re shutting down the country over 9 deaths outside the state of WA? This is historic stuff. The Tulip Mania of the 21st century.
True. Real journalists are hard to come by. There’s a few but you have to work to find them. Wonder what the ordinary flu Death total is? I’m 68 and I’m trying to avoid both.
After much consideration, I have come to the conclusion that the media’s COMPLETE lack of hysteria at the H1N1 virus in 2009 which infected ONE-SIXTH OF AMERICANS sort of tells you all you need to know about the current situation.
Coverage, QUITE obviously, depends upon who’s in the White House.
By the way, the Washington Times reported today that people in Wuhan, where all this got underway, are returning to work.
I killed every one of my damn tulips this spring. Bad soil type!
the western world is shutting its economies down partially. it is absolutely surreal regardless of the merits of it. I have read enough about the furin cleavage aspect of this virus that I believe it is crazily contagious and apparently quite dangerous to anyone over 60.
Thanks for the reply.
It’s worth to start asking IMO.
Good report, thanks
Doesn't Laz have it? I thought he was going to have it by now.
Laz made love not war against coronoyvirus.
why is it so hard to report this....
if we knew that all the starting cases were from people that had just been to China we could rest a little easier because we know how it happened..
“So we’re shutting down the country over 9 deaths outside the state of WA? This is historic stuff. The Tulip Mania of the 21st century.”
And those 31 others were elderly in nursing homes.
But average people believe climate change is a crisis and imminent danger. It’s no surprise people can’t think rationally about sensationalized epidemic.
Laz doesnt have it but has the friend that says this is the big one.
