It's surprising how bad the US numbers look relative to the other countries.

It’s no secret there was a slow start to the testing. It’s not Just about “new” cases; it’s more about “found” cases. And that’s everywhere. Just more drastic here.

So SK’s CFR has gone from .68 to .9%?


Why? Why is the rate of death increasing?

That's a start, but try to avoid contact with all people that you can if you get this. If you have the coronavirus, something as simple as going to a grocery store could spread it or get an old or immunocompromised person killed.

Officials are expected to announce the closure of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo at a noon news conference, sources with knowledge of the discussions said Wednesday. Mayor Sylvester Turner informed city council members during the group’s regular Wednesday morning meeting of a coronavirus-related announcement at noon, which sources confirmed was that further events at the rodeo — the massive, weeks-long event and concert series that routinely draws more than 100,000 visitors to NRG Park on Saturdays and Sundays — will be truncated. The pending announcement would come days after rodeo officials said it had no plans to cancel the annual festival. In a statement on Saturday, organizers said that RodeoHouston primarily was a local event.

I wash my hands prudently

If I get ill I stay at home and dont go anywhere as long as I run a fever

But I guess I am the same as a person who doesnt leave town when a category 5 is heading their way


If I am such, what more is every other hero in here doing that makes me so far behind?

You do know that you are most contagious before you show symptoms, right?

Ok, so should I never leave the house at all? I mean what the hell are you actually suggesting I do?

You're the one championing this notion that you have it all figured out. Not me.

A significant percentage of those infected with COVID-19 do not run a fever.

I am just saying the precautions I will personally take, and you responded with "you are contagious even when asymptomatic"

So what are you doing?

Because it takes a while for people to get over the virus. Some cases that start as mild eventually get to critical

Ok great. Once again, what are you doing then? I assume since my measures are so poor, you are not going around anyone and are staying home

Chicago cancels their St. Patty's Day parade.

They won't even be dyeing the river green.

This is why everyone has been preaching widespread testing and social distancing like they have done in SK.

Objectively, the US has to do a much much much better job with widespread testing.
