Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

ThisIs the least complicated explanation you’re going to see for why this has to be taken seriously. Nothing new here, but very logically laid out.



Closing comments in that video... just do it and stop complaining about it... yeah, that gives me the warm and fuzzies.

She said 2-4 weeks at the end also... I don't see how we get any further than 2 weeks without social unrest.

Apples to oranges at this point. We are only 1-2 months into this. Way too early to make the comparison.

Obviously time will tell, however according to CDC archives 2 months into H1N1 (June 23, 2009), there were 27,717 confirmed cases and 127 deaths (including 10 pediatric patients)

That’s definitely got to be a concern. Everyday that this continues, the layoffs are going to mount and people will get desperate. Hopefully there’s some good news in the next 7-10 days.

Even if we can't get back to work, any news that inspires some confidence that this will be over within a couple months would do wonders.

Exactly... just something to give an indication of whether we’re looking at 2 more weeks or 6 months.
 
Physicians pleading with TN Governor to order a "Shelter in Place"


"Per the escalating and destructive situation with the COVID‐19 pandemic, we humbly ask you to act swiftly on behalf of the citizens of Tennessee" the letter began.

The letter went on to talk about the replication rate of COVID-19 compared to influenza saying COVID-19 is "60 to 100% more “efficient” at replicating itself."

The belief is that on an average of 10 patients get both influenza and COVID-19, the ones with influenza will pass it to about 13 people while the other will pass it to about 20 to 25 individuals.

"The mortality rate of COVID‐19 is at minimum 10x, and possibly up to 34x deadlier than seasonal influenza," says the letter.

The group of physicians is requesting that effective midnight Sunday, March 22, that Tennessee declare the shelter in place act for fourteen days with only essential personnel be deployed during this emergency.

They also are requesting that anyone returning from international and domestic travel self-quarantine for fourteen days.
