Five people have died at a elderly care facility in New Orleans. Not only do some people know people that have it, some people (the workers and administrators there) know five people that have died from it. You are pretty ignorant.
Good Grief!! Why do you choose to live among such weak and easily sickened people???
Get away from there before it's too late!!

It's actually closer to the common cold. Another viral infection that has no known cure.

Actually, them dinosaur bones was buried there, rapidly, hence the fossilization. We could surmise, by scientific analyses, that them bones must have been involved in a worldwide catastrophic flood, which would explain the immediate burial and subsequent fossilization. But it's much more fun and "scientific" to assume they buried themselves.
But I digress.

Honestly, after watching this video do you still feel this way?
Ah, yes, let's compare a country with terrible "universal healthcare" and people piled on top of each other, with the United States.
While we're at it, let's compare our water to that of African jungles. How about keeping the goal posts in one spot?

Understatement of the century. Most mayors only have the authority to license and tax, that's it.

My source is a world history of socialized health care, the fact that Italy, like China, has it, and they have been reportedly unable to treat the elderly, as they do not have the means to cope with the number of patients.
This happens when your entire healthcare system is sponsored by the government, and your economy, unsurprisingly, cannot afford enough hospitals, much less quality care.

Okay, well, if you noticed in the video, it had nothing to do with those who were triaged and didn't receive care. There really isn't anything you can do for this disease right now except provide supportive care, and then mechanical ventilation when they go into respiratory failure. But the whole point of the video was to show just how serious it is, and how even when receiving that ventilation people are not recovering.
The original comment I responded to said this would just be a slight blip compared to normal years. The video pretty obviously showed that's not true. These hospitals handle flu every year. This isn't like that, at all.

Wife is an ER nurse and has seen this fake news first hand.
Care to switch jobs with her? She works three in a row this week. I’ll even pay for your plane ticket. Round trip.

The rate of survival of elderly patients placed on a ventilator for over four days is not good, no matter the reason.
