hospital is doing nothing special for preparing for the corona virus flu.
Sans vaccination, the treatment of corona and influenza is identical.
There is no real basis for a hospital to do anything different at this point. They would be ready, even if there was a sudden US coronavirus pandemic starting tomorrow.
The question is whether CV will spread into the US like flu. I'm seeing little other than very aggressive quarantining to indicate it won't. I'm just not sure how well 2wk quarantining will work if it comes to that.
Put another way, quarantining was effective with ebola. But had ebola maintained a 14 d and asymptomatic transmissible period, we'd have seen far wider spread.
If we can identify every potential entry case, and aggressively quarantine those exposed, we'll be okay. But that is a high mark.

What is this other worldly respiratory virus that has been going around the last few months? My wife brought this shite home from a trip to NYC on Dec 16 and it was awful. Took 3 weeks to get over major tiredness and most of the coughing, it took her another 3 weeks to get like 95% and she is super fit and never sick. I didn't get it as bad as her but damn it sucked. Compared to the flu friends had gotten this shite was 10x worse, especially the recover time. I don't know any adult that has gotten over this pretty much 100% in less than 5 weeks.

Patients were treated for Ebola with IV remdesivir (A Gilead product), right? I've also read that confirmed Corona cases were being treated with the same drug.
Are influenza patients treated with remdesvir?
