Corona Virus Updates Part 4

From the WHO Live Feed, they are talking a lot about how China and S.Korea have managed really good.
(Implying we should emulate their methods/actions).

Talking a lot about Contain and Mitigate.
Control.

"It can still be contained, as some Asian countries show shown, China, Japan, S.Korea."

My Thought :
Seeing as how both China and S.Korea shut down entire cities (as has Italy, which has also shut down entire provinces), and that Japan has Cities/Prefectures under "Voluntary" quarantine.

I really wonder if this would work in the UK, France, The USA ?

edit : I wonder if its time to brush off the CB radio yet.


edit2 : WHO Livefeed over.

Yeah it was really contained well in asia... its now on the whole world 😂👌🏻🚀😜.
I can only see a fear of total breakdown in those countries where it was seemingly „contained“ the just contain numbers and information. Like china destroying all data currently... that alone is speaking for itself whats really going on. Stocks falling worldwide 8% a day. Bitcoin 10%.

Yeah well... looking at data i must say this will end where nobody wants to be.

First two dead in germany now.
Anyway this cannot be stopped. Its like the flu, only even more contagious. This one Webasto guy in Milano infecting literally a chain of 7-8000 others is a good starting point for how contagious this is.

Hey L... I feel for you. I also love the great outdoors, and that is a bit too close for comfort. On the other hand though, you can observe the site, and give the rest of us here on ATS real time updates. I wouldn't wish that on anyone though, regardless. Sorry for that news.

Another case popped up in Nashville Tn.

The patient is an adult female in Middle Tennessee. Health officials Sunday confirmed the first case known in Davidson County.

Kansas lady announced on Sat/Sun, just checked into a local hospital.

No updates on her condition, if it was precautionary or because of downgrade of her health.

in Finland they recommended two meters distance.. but if you think if someone in front of you sneezes it goes first straight forward and then start to flow down and it will land on your trousers/skirt shoes etc... droplets can easily reach you, rest is up to you, what you do.

Every Migrant from North Africa's favorite destination (after Turkey), The Island of LesBos, just confirmed it first case.

No it isn't, and a LOT of people fled friday night (or saturday night, right when it was announced), by almost any means possible.
Yay for spread.

+76 new cases in the US bringing total to 617

Anywhere but there i would expect. If you look at the map, south is to Italy, North would be to Switzerland or France, and so, many are fearing they went south.

From the French Live Feed at 18h40 local time :

Italy is stopping all sports events and championships until the 3rd April.
ALL Ski stations are to be closed.

Doctor who treated first US case of coronavirus says patients with mild symptoms can recover at home

Dr. George Diaz, the section chief for infectious diseases at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett, Wash., told "America's News HQ" on Sunday that most patients infected with the coronavirus can recover at home and do not need to be hospitalized.

"Most folks that are infected with this virus will have a mild disease — won't need to come to the hospital, won't have to be admitted," Diaz said.

"Those people at low risk, there's really not much at this point that needs to be done for them in terms of staying home while they're ill," he added.

I found a good read about New and old virus behavior.

Harvard

The consequence is that new viruses — like pandemic influenza — can spread outside the normal season for their longer-established cousins. For example in 2009, the pandemic started in April-May (well outside of flu season), quieted in the summer (perhaps because of the importance of children in transmission of flu), and then rebounded in September-October, before the start of normal flu season. Seasonality does not constrain pandemic viruses the way it does old ones. This pattern is common for flu pandemics.

There is some pretty good info in this article.

I've noticed a lot of people have been taking to the "seasonal flu" side of things.

Omg 😱 I didnt think it could get much worse than yesterday.. wtf has happened there to make it so bad?? Frighteningly I saw in sky News an 'expert' saying that here in the UK we should probably watch Italy as an idea to how it will be here.. which is not comforting at all.

Hi everyone!

I came across a chart comparison of the virus, common cold and influenza. It could be helpful for those amongst you who may be poorly and want to figure out if you've been bitten by the virus.



I saw this in my Twitter feed. The source is the WHO, but I can't find it on their website. I have no idea how old it is, nor how appropriate it is for different strains of the virus.

Take is with a spoonful of salt. Hypochondriacs need not look, you already know you have them all.

Look at Spain's numbers, they've flown under the radar, but they too look like they have an aggressive strain. It's going to blow up there soon.

Whats bad from that though, is that those people with Mild symptoms will nopt beleive they have it, and will never consult, and will go on working and travelling, like it was just a normal flu.
How do you sort that out, without testing everyone ?
