I’m actually a little disappointed that my illness-related musician name game didn’t catch on.

That pediatrician is a fricking boss!



A voice of reason.

That is an appropriate response with appropriate information.

Those within the medical field who are not searching for increased grants or funding seem to be reasonable.

Scruffy didn’t think he lived in Italy.

We learn new things every day.

Only because everyone is overreacting for fear of looking like they aren’t doing something for safety reasons.

The fact that OTers think they knew more about the virus than people who are on the frontlines in Italy is peak tigerdroppings.

Italy isnt shutting down their economy and entire country because people are anxious. Its because they realize if they can slow down the spread of the virus their health care system has a much better chance of holding up.

You think we will have a similar situation as Italy?

Really?

My bad. I suppose if I quoted and linked 2 week old articles using 4 week old data from China and told everyone to expect the US to deal with 8 million casualties, I’d be more helpful.

some people just take prior experiences such as the ones they had with ebola and swine flu and use those experiences to realize that everyone is freaking out for no fricking reason.

does this disease differ in how transmission occurs from those, in incubation?

You are being an absolute bitch in this thread.

Look man, I know for a 100% fact the United States government is fricking up this testing/screening process.

Every patient my institution has tried to test has been told they don’t meet criteria because they didn’t French kiss a known infected person.

They have viral pneumonia. Everything else is negative. They were at an international conference. It wasn’t until our private lab entity got the assay that we could send it off.

That’s all some of us are saying. We, collectively, are doing a piss poor job of even attempting containment

Ebola, swine flu. Did the mass hysteria justify what those actually did? Think about these things then ask yourself if you should really be this worried
