TY. I took a quick look. Headed out to work. Catch you tomorrow as you are quite reliable.
Brazil looks like it is making a run at us (daily new cases, daily fatalities). They are not there yet, but their curves look grim.
So far, our (US) trends look ok - it’s certainly not “great” to be losing roughly 1k people per day, but it’s better than over 2k per day. My estimate of 100k fatalities by June 1 looks like it’ll be a bit low. :-(
Current serious/critical US cases appear to still be (on average) growing a bit, but should be well within HCS capacity, esp. given that we (and likely warmer weather also) have squashed the flu. I’m not sure where we are at regarding hospitalizations, but I’d expect a similar trend: Manageable @ present, but many of our valiant HCS workers normally get a bit of a break after flu season. Not this year.
hey...thanx again.
The pct of the population infected - .3409% is minuscule.
Consider CDC rates flu infections @ 3% to 11% per season.
The pct of the population that dies from this virus is even way smaller.
flu has a mortality of about .1%
what I’m trying to dig out is, how many re-infections...
I’ve found nothing recent about it and the earlier stuff is conjecture.
I’ll keep hunting.
Thanx for all this
