It's 100 times worse than the flu, and it's about to spread EVERYWHERE It's normal for people to want to grasp at straws to avoid the truth when the truth is troublesome. So they say it only affects old people. They say it is a hoax. They say it is nothing more than the flu. Saying these things is not going to stop it from spreading. Carrying on about your daily business, spreading it around rather than sheltering, is merely going to prolong the agony. If we had closed everything down and required sheltering in place March 1 we wouldn't be having this discussion now, watching this thing slowly spread across the nation and many dying, as we are now. But you can't cure stupid. The only smart ones are the ones who saw the writing on the wall back in Jan/Feb and prepared ahead of time, or who are always prepared for emergencies. |

The containment measures are showing signs of progress. Washington State reported on 5% growth. This is gaining time for us. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73377229 No, New York Shut down 4 days ago. Most people don't even start showing symptoms for 5 days after exposure and then don't typically become critical until 12 days after exposure. Containment has little to do with this slowdown. I said in several other threads yesterday that it would be 3 days and we would start seeing a leveling of cases. That is because most of the population has already been exposed over the last few weeks and its staring to break the spread. The same thing happened in China, Italy, and Spain. 12 days from the major uptick it reached a leveling point. |
