Get ready. If this comes here in big numbers, it’s going to be chaos. Thankfully mine
and my close family’s daily routines rarely take us to the places where it will be bad.
it's impossible to be so sure.....it's got it's tentacles.
i'm just saying..... (those other places -- "daily routines rarely take us to the places where it will be bad") . . .
wear latex gloves anyway.... and open (that "rare" door with a tissue or paper towel
(or with your latex glove).....
I get that, but we are attacking this HARD CORE unlike the Non-Attack we did in this country for H1N1. There will be a huge difference here.
Do you believe in abstraction that a disease can be much worse than another disease in terms of transmission rates and casualties even if they are both diseases?

That's the main thing with COVID-19, rapid transmission & 2x exponential growth
Well, for me, the real offense is that he's mayor.
Though, yea, I agree that non-essential travel should be minimized. I can hate the player, but not the game, right?
Well forget who is saying it. The message is correct at this time. It can save you or someone you care about the suffering of a flu. Last time I had it was 15 years ago. Plus this one can be worse. If you don't have to travel don't. It's that simple.
I found this interesting, more for how each country dealt with it than the numbers (well, maybe the relationship between the two.) Maybe instead of locking down everything, we need massive testing, and only locking down the infected. Then again, it may be too late for that.
Will, my opinion on how the US government handled this is sort of the converse of my opinion on this in regards to how the South Korea government handled this. We were a latecomer to the corona party and there were tests already in existence and that had rapidly scaled up in production elsewhere earlier. There was essentially an earlier national failure to ramp things up for testing and clearly communicating this was a threat and how to minimize things softly early on, so now it's blunt force instrument time like in Italy.
