re: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) ***W.H.O. DECLARES A GLOBAL PANDEMIC***

You are probably being very generous with your 10:1 ratio.

Those are extremely rare circumstances.

Very few industries have seen an uptick in demand during all of this.

In my case, I think it’s because we are majority owned by the Japanese. The bulk of “work” has been busy work, working on otherwise back burner projects, etc


But the Japanese tend to take care of their own.

Certainly not seen an uptick of sales/profitable work. Only customers that held steady was McD and Whataburger. Overall we are running at around 15% standard capacity.

Group that got bonuses were geared to retail food packaging.

The Italian ministry of health today estimated that 10% of Italians have had covid. That would be 6million. It would also make the total fatality rate .4%.

I think this ends up with a .2% to .4% fatality rate.

If 10% of italians have been infected
Over 70 it is around 1.5%
50-70 it is .7%
30-50 it is .08%
Under 30 it is .007%

I agree with your assessment of data so for. Today we hit 40k in Covid-19 deaths. With the admitted underreporting due to at home fatalities, lack of testing etc probably more like 45.000 to 50,000. Even assuming that 1% mortality rate is correct that means actually number infected is around 4.5 to 5 million. If that number is lower then the infection rate could be over 10 million. Now the the Chinese have up their % of non-symptomatic Covid-19 from 1% to maybe as high as 60% from wuhan region this makes the higher numbers seem much more likely.

So maybe many of us have already had this.

In sum, so far we know that is was in America much earlier than we realized, (see Stanford study), it’s ridiculous contagious, and many people will have minimal or no symptoms, and that it can be deadly to some sub groups of the population, and is likely to be with us for a year or two. Everything else is informed speculation or guesswork right now.

GOP has been pretty reasonable throughout this whole ordeal. It's amazing how some of you people (yeah I said it) will take anything you don't want to hear and call it fear mongering. Quit being such a backwoods twat and start using your head.


THAT'S THE LUMP THAT'S THREE FEET ABOVE YOUR arse!

“ Of the 397 people tested, 146 people tested positive. Not a single one had any symptoms.”

At that time*

They showed symptoms later on and one was hospitalized.

Still great numbers though.

There will be many more stories like this. Ohio is testing every inmate in the state prison system. Marion county shot to lead in case count over the weekend as they had 1800 test positive in one prison there. They haven't released any other info other than to say "many" were asymptomatic. There have been zero deaths in that prison so far. 109 prison workers also tested positive.
