jergul rank	Fri Mar 06 20:50:41 2020 Para High reported infection rates is generally a function of high testing levels. But control that against number of deaths. 3.5% deaths of reported cases is norm. Higher than 3.5% means lower testing levels Lower than 3.5% means higher testing levels.
Paramount rank	Fri Mar 06 21:06:11 2020 ” High reported infection rates is generally a function of high testing levels” Yes, but is Germany not making as many tests as Italy is then?

EuropeanPussy rank	Sat Mar 07 00:23:19 2020 After the corona crisis Italy will be a reborn country full of young people: http://www...ggest-daily-jump-idUSKBN20T2ML Italy is currently reporting more deaths per day from the virus than any other country in the world and the government this week ordered the closure of schools, universities, cinemas and theaters around the country to try to stem the infections. The cumulative number of cases in the country, which has been the hardest hit in Europe by the epidemic, totaled 4,636 compared with 3,858 on Thursday. The national health institute said the average age of those who had died so far was 81, with the vast majority suffering underlying health problems. Just 28% were women. The fatality rate from the illness in Italy, which has one of the oldest populations in the world, is running at 4.25%, higher than in most other countries.

She said regional Fed banks that help manage the money supply will set aside shipments of dollars from Asia for seven to 10 days before processing and redistributing them to financial institutions. The policy, first reported by Reuters, was implemented on Feb. 21, the official said.

Forwyn rank	Sat Mar 07 04:27:55 2020 "echoing fox news." You got a clip of Fox News saying that their principle market should be allowed to die off? I'd be rofl'ing if so. But probably not, because you project your echo bullshit onto others.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 05:12:54 2020 The right-wing echo chamber is all saying it's just the Flu. Hannity is nonstop about it. It's not just the flu, it's definitely deadlier and similar to the Spanish Flu in mortality. The biggest issue is how contagious it is and how easily it spreads because many people take a while to develop symptoms. Our hospital system is designed with capitalist efficiency in mind so it has just enough beds and staff at any one time to deal with a normal patient load. About 15-20% of people infected have needed hospitalization to deal with symptoms, about 5% need critical care. So even small outbreaks can overwhelm a healthcare system. That's why the best strategy is to test everyone and to quarantine everyone infected. Slow down the disease by being careful and it's manageable. Not testing for it though is a fucking disaster and will make the spread fast enough so that it can overwhelm our healthcare system. TLDR for cuckservatives: It can infect your parents and grandparents, and also re-infect you. It has killed young people too and you can get re-infected. Wash your hands and avoid people dumbasses.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 07:33:56 2020 Lots of good articles on the coronavirus up at Vox. Cuckservatives hate facts though.

Forwyn rank	Sat Mar 07 08:08:46 2020 "It has killed young people too" Mortality in the 30-40 range is .2%. Less than that below 30, before hitting zero for under-10s. So yeah, still not seeing a reason to institute wartime production and quarantine procedures to protect a Boomer population that everyone is waiting to die off anyway. At least let it hit DC first
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 08:22:24 2020 Forwyn hates his parents, but we probably all already knew that anyways.
jergul rank	Sat Mar 07 08:43:38 2020 Fowyn Thing is, modern humans are not very good at dying. @50% infection rates, total mortality for the 30-40 range would almost double with .2%. Nothing is scaled to meet that kind of challenge.
Daemon rank	Sat Mar 07 09:38:32 2020 Germany: officially 639 infected, 0 death. The reason for zero fatality is obvious. The old people in Germany grew up in Nazi Germany which made them really really tough by order of Adolf Hitler: http://www...eal-to-german-youth/a-16410476 At a Nazi Party rally in 1935, Hitler described his ideal of the Hitler Youth as "swift as a greyhound, as tough as leather, and as hard as Krupp's steel." If only Germany had won the war we would now not need to fear the corona virus!
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 09:56:40 2020 With that many cases some died and doctors called it the flu or cold, just like in the US where they found 2 people had already died of it in the retirement home weeks earlier.
jergul rank	Sat Mar 07 10:49:59 2020 The main reason is that most hospitals in Germany can now perform the test. We can see the contures of true mortality in the German numbers. Something in the region of 0.5% for the population overall. With that said, expect some deaths soon. Life prolonging interventions cannot keep some people alive indefinitely.
jergul rank	Sat Mar 07 10:50:59 2020 4-8 people will die soon to put a number on it.
Daemon rank	Sat Mar 07 10:56:56 2020 So far there is only one guy in critical condition and this is in my home town(translated): http://www...ter-in-lebensgefahr-35248.html Münster - For the first time in Germany a corona patient may have fallen into a life-threatening condition. The "Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland" reports that a man is lying in the intensive care unit of the University Hospital Münster. The patient had been given immunosuppressive drugs because of an upcoming organ transplantation. These drugs are intended to prevent the body from rejecting transplanted organs, but at the same time increase sensitivity to all kinds of pathogens. In the evening, the hospital declined to comment on the report and did not want to confirm it. [...] Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Now he has seen the light and done a 180 as if he never had any other opinion about it! I pity the fool who doesn’t take corona seriously. -Mr D We have always been at war with Eruasia. -Dickhat 2-3% mortality dickhat? As deadly as the spanish flu? Nooo! I can’t beliebe it! In all fairness he was waiting to see what angle he should take on corona so he would land on the right side when it was inevitably politicized. You grifting piece of human shit.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 11:52:39 2020 Still playing politics and ad hominem attacks. We get it. You watch a lot of youtube videos and can't discern fact from fiction.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 11:57:05 2020 Never would I assume the response would be this bungled. We're looking at geometric rates of growth like Iran because this administration is not testing at all. Obama dealt with the Swine epidemic immediately after only 20 cases and no deaths. And even if we didn't test like Iran, we have better-educated people so if the president told them to take it seriously and to wash their hands and avoid going out; it would be better contained. But he can't have that because the economy would slow down so he pretends like it's nothing. Like, could Trump really be this dumb? The answer as always is yes.
Nimatzo rank	Sat Mar 07 13:07:51 2020 We knew what Trump would do, just like we know what you do. Unappologetic flipflopping anyway the windblows. No one has taken Corona serious like you have. No one understand corona better than you do. Eh?
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 13:19:20 2020 What flip flopping? I always said it should be treated seriously. The only instance I did was when I made fun of the virus in a post where I said I was sad the next ipad would get delayed. You and Hood both have dicks up your asses. People have said worse things. Just relax and let your dominatrix push your shit in you Iranian cuck. BTW, how's your Iranian family doing? Probably all dead huh. WHOOPS.

Nimatzo rank	Sat Mar 07 13:53:36 2020 Clearly dickface, you said much more than iPad delays and with far more brevity that you seem to remember. A complete 180, literally (it's just a cold). This is more embarrassing than that one time you got all angry and cunty and said you were leaving UP.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 14:07:28 2020 "Coronavirus turning out pretty good for the world. ... Bad things: 1) New ipad will be delayed. Was planning on upgrading. Oh well."

Now go back to raping your wife while your countrymen drop like flies.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 14:09:55 2020 Yeah, we have info now you stupid shit. South Korean numbers are the most reliable. .7% or so which is at least 4x deadlier than the cold. Manageable as long as spread is contained. Only it's not which means more people die to lack of access to hospitals and ventilators and treatment. I know you're a fucking obsessed alt-right piece of shit who never contributes anything meaningful to any conversation other than your hatred of transgenders but try to pay attention. And I don't care what you think. I am goading you on because I know you are upset about all the family members in Iran dying or endangered. You should probably try to do something about that instead of wasting both our time.

Nimatzo rank	Sat Mar 07 14:21:01 2020 There is no reason to cherry pick dickhat, I already quoted the important parts. Here is a TLDR. Few days ago It's just a cold. Today It's not just a cold. -Dickface Neither my family nor the transgenders can help you at this point Dickhat. You are on your own! This spray of unrelated insults is a sign of panic and insults, you are behaving like a cornered animal. There is a lesson to be learned for you, for sure. Changing an opinion is A OK dickface, but the manner in which you did, is Orwellian comedy and worthy of ridicule.
Dukhat rank	Sat Mar 07 15:30:58 2020 I never excluded the fact it could be deadlier you stupid shit. I just said it wasn’t definitive and it still is not. The mortality date has a floor of .7% ala korea’s numbers. You’re just a stupid affirmative action persian monkey who got a token degree in sweden that lacks even basic reading skills. As for the disease itself, the real reason it’s deadly is because it’s so infectious. The US needed to massively test and also mandatorily quarantine all those affected. It does’t matter what the mortality rate is if a ton of people are infected. The flu itself already strains the medical system. Now we will see Covid-19 blow it up because the Trump administration was really that incompetent.

Tomorrow I will go to a concert and I assume there will be about 500 to 1000 other people. Should the government forbid events like this one? No I don't think so. So it is inviteable that the infection spreads. Unless we find a permanent vaccination we will simply have to live with the virus forever.
Dukhat rank	Sun Mar 08 00:25:29 2020 Yes because the faster this thing spreads, the more people will become sick and strain the system. About 15% require hospitalization and 5% require critical care. Our hospital system will be overwhelmed if people get infected too fast just like Italy and Iran. Too many people act like its nothing which will make the spread worse and possibly overwhelm our medical system which means more deaths just from lack of access to medical care. Because our president and right-wing media have said it’s a hoax a big chunk of people are going to act like it’s nothing and make the spread so much worse. It has a significant chance of getting really bad. Actually it’s pretty much mathematically guaranteed.
Paramount rank	Sun Mar 08 01:59:22 2020 ” The plight of 3,500 people aboard the Grand Princess took a dramatic and complicated turn Friday when U.S. government officials ordered the cruise ship to dock at an undisclosed port after tests confirmed that 21 crew and guests were infected with the new coronavirus.” The US fovernment is basically kidnapping them and taking them to a secret location where they will be locked up for God knows how long.

Dukhat rank	Sun Mar 08 05:30:39 2020 We quarantined the other cruise passengers at military bases so I don't know what the hangup is except for the huge number. It's probably Trump because he doesn't want to increase the number of cases. Also this thing has a confirmed case that was at CPAC or whatever it was called in late February. So it's already spreading among the dumbest of the dumb who will say, "See it's nothing" while infecting their family and friends en masse and killing off the most vulnerable among them.
tumbleweed rank	Sun Mar 08 05:43:00 2020 "It's probably Trump because he doesn't want to increase the number of cases." no probably about it, he flat out said it also of note, it's 21 out of the 46 tested... ~3450 passengers remain in a state of being infected or not infected as to CPAC "CPAC chairman Matt Schlapp tells me he interacted with attendee who has tested positive for coronavirus. While the timeline is unknown, Schlapp shook Trump's hand on stage the last day of the conference.

jergul rank	Sun Mar 08 17:20:15 2020 "Currently, there are about 75,000 coronavirus tests available for the American public, US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union” today. "By early next week – tomorrow – we should have over 2 million tests available. By the end of the week, through partnerships with private industry, over 4 million tests available," Adams said. "But the most important number to the American people is one. They want to know if I go in, can I get a test? And the one thing that I’ve heard – I’ve been to Georgia, I’ve been to Georgia, I’ve been to Connecticut in the past week – is that no public health doctor who was asked for a test has not been able to get a test. So people should talk to their healthcare providers." Yet when Tapper asked how many people have been tested, Adams said, "The numbers are tough because they're changing minute by minute." Tapper responded, "Just the rough numbers?" Adams later said, "I would refer you to the CDC for that because, again, the numbers change so rapidly."" Rodina!

CrownRoyal rank	Mon Mar 09 05:14:47 2020 “ Ted Cruz will self-quarantine after having an affair w/ the infected CPAC member ” Too many jokes about catching the retarded virus at cpac. But, not for nothing, US Senate is pretty old. Calgary Ted can corovirus to death a sizeable chunk of the chamber.
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 05:44:21 2020 It's not just the mortality numbers. About 10-15% of people have needed hospitalization (ventilator help) and 5% ICU care. And the low-end of mortality was .6% in Korea where they have tested incredibly aggressively and have treated everyone. That's at least 3x deadlier than the flu. China had a much greater mortality rate (take the numbers for what they are) because their hospitals were swamped and people died at home or waiting for a bed. People who don't really suffer from it are the most deadly because they show no symptoms but can infect a lot of people. If enough people are infected, then the hospital system is overwhelmed. And it really doesn't take much. Our capitalist healthcare system only builds enough beds to be profitable for the average number of cases it expects. If millions get it, that's hundreds of thousands that will need ventilators and tens of thousands that need ICU care. Politics aside, everyone should just assume that they have it and wash their hands and avoid interacting with people, especially older people.

Habebe rank	Mon Mar 09 17:26:37 2020 Meanwhile in Iran "Many religious people have begun posting videos of themselves licking and kissing mosque decorations as a cure and a preventive measure against the disease," No wonder they're all dieing. http://www...ut-it-stops-protests-1.8639593
Dukhat rank	Mon Mar 09 17:32:04 2020 If this kills both the religious leadership of Iran and Trump, Thanos will be very happy. Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.

She had died of pneumonia as a result of the coronavirus infection, the city of Essen announced on Monday. The District Administrator of Heinsberg wanted to give more information about the other dead person(s) in the evening. On Sunday, a firefighter from Hamburg had already died of coronavirus in Egypt.

He then said pretty much to hear it from Pence not me so as to not send mixed measages." No, that isn't what he said. He said they would have the plan within 72 hours of the meeting. There was no implication that a plan was complete, instead there was a very clear indication that the plan had not been completed. To be crystal: - Pence met with cruise ship company the day before the clip. - the ship was coming into port the day after the clip. - the day of the clip, Carson suggested first that the plan would be ready within 72 hours (of current time) and then when pressed, amended it to say 72 hours from the meeting Pence had.

I’d rather die gloriously in battle than from a virus. In a way it doesn’t matter. But it kinda does."
