Apparently they have zero recorded deaths which seems to fit the narrative that its mainly people 60+ with/or underlying health concerns who have a higher chance of death.

So basically in Italy young people are going around infecting old people.
Expressen reports that Sweden now potentially has its first two cases of community spread in Stockholm.
We get US news channels and their affiliates up here in Canada and it's not prevalent to call it the seasonal flu
You have a subset of smartasss like Elon going around saying it's no big deal.
Uh, 132 cases for Canada? When did this happen? We're at 67 right now. Is this adding the cruise cases?
Is asthma a pre-existing condition to be concerned about? I just got over bronchitis in January
It does say on there that confirmed cases include presumptive cases.
If you click on it it said 66.
Canada doesn't have any presumptive cases at this point I think. It looks like they just multiple it by 2.
I would assume any respiratory condition could be something to worry about.
True. Possibly an error then.
Canada numbers are being doubled in the "Confirmed cases by country" list · Issue #336 · CSSEGISandData/COVID-19
I note that there is a format change in the Canada map which is probably responsible for this, but the totals in individual provinces is 66, abut the confirmed cases list by country is showing 132.

Yea, seems to be an error due to geolocation.
Congrats on the marathon. It was in the back of my mind the entire time I ran. All those water cups handed out by hundreds of volunteers. Still ran my fastest one yet. Let's hope neither of us become a stat.
Seriously. Maybe that's the narrative on Fox News but I'm not seeing it anywhere else. Good Morning America is pretty much devoting 90% of it's run time to the virus, same with news websites, etc. And almost none of it is saying it's not that bad. This thing has pretty much shoved the democratic primary way into the background.
I'm no financial analyst either, but I have a strong feeling this will be a V-shaped recovery. All the underlying conditions were strong prior to the virus outbreak, so once the mortality rates drop/stabilize or new cases start to plateau, folks will be out and about conducting business as usual.
This isn't an instance like 2007 when the housing market crashed and nearly took all of the banks with it.
Thanks. I have been using the John Hopkins app and Russia is the only country not covered in the reports.
Pretty much. Here in Italy people under 40 seem to not care a bit about this. Their selfishness is crazy.
To be fair, I'm in contact with two doctors in Milan and they said that they found some very severe cases of pneumonia even in people in their 20, though more than 90% of the patients in ICU are over 60. Still, this virus can fuck anybody. Some people still don't understand that even a young healthy man could be involved in something like a car crash and die because of no ICU beds. Media should really focus less on the speculations about mortality rate and more on the actual problems of this pandemic.
Problem with that math is time. Not all 200000 will be in the hospital at same time. Now back to reality, the impact on hospitals will still be immense.
Could you pls linke me where he said this? Not able to find it:

The uk has tested more people than the us has done so far,in a single day. The result itself was on the lower end.

If you need 200.000 beds it means at the same time, or else you don't need 200.000 beds.
Other people with little to no symptoms who happen to be carriers combined with a whole lot of luck.
Or basically anyone that has been anywhere near an airport in the past week or two.
I would assume that since the symptoms can be quite mild, some people don't stay home after their travels or they got close to someone/touched something from a person that was traveling home from their out of country visit during public transportation or whatnot.
think I read that the first cases in germany came from someone who was mainly tired and had muscle ache?

Thank you!
And as anybody who has ever had a loved one in need of an ICU bed on a normal day can tell you, they're almost all already in use.
What? It does not say same time anywhere. It is talking totals...
Why would they need 200.000 beds if they're not going to use them all? it makes no sense.
Speaking of beds, are there still not hospitals in the US reporting significantly increased numbers of "mysterious" viral pneumonia cases? That would be very odd considering it's probable that this virus has been here for a couple of months already.
Gotten sick and just wondering who to call if I feel worse. I'm in Ontario Canada for reference.
I really, really hope people pull their heads out of the sand and vote for whichever Dem candidate wins ultimately. If people didn't care about the Russia affair, how he treats migrants, women, etc. because it doesn't touch them directly, they should just look at his priorities when there's an outbreak. The look of it, not the fact people are dying.
Just a friendly reminder, other ilnesses are not taking a break because COV is around....there are between 70 and 80k beds in the us, ...i can assure you they're not ALL EMPTY right now.
contact Telehealth Ontario at
1-866-797-0000
or their
local public health unit
if they experience symptoms of the 2019 novel coronavirus
They didn't say that? They said 200,000 people will need intensive care for a moderate outbreak. That is a total.
Now if you have a severe outbreak, where there can be millions infected at the same time, then you would need 200,000 beds.
Again though, we don't need these numbers to overwhelm the system which will happen at a much lower total, especially since ICU normally has patients for other reasons.
Welp, it's hit the school I work in...
"Good morning this is Superintendent of schools Gerard Pool with a very important message. This morning I was informed that a staff member his spouse was has been diagnosed with a Corona virus. The staff member has been sent home as a result we will be closing all buildings today March 9 Monday March 9 will be closing all schools today. Students that are on the bus at the high school or at the Middle School. The buses they will remain on the bus and those students will be turned around and sent back home to the bus company. I will certainly update you as soon as I have additional information. Thank you."
Not psyched.
