Dr. Amesh Adalja just said 50% of the US will get the corona...on Martha’s show. Said 20% came down with H1N1 and there was some immunity in the population. No prior immunity with the corona

More data on asymptomatic cases on the Diamond Princess. It's frustrating that this early in the game the data is noisy, but this is some mostly good news :

A total 318 (51%) of all confirmed cases were asymptomatic when the respiratory specimen was collected (10 crew and 308 passengers).

He said the same thing on MSNBC, Vox, and Bloomberg.

I think the general message is to limit large gatherings. Every person in an official position is trying to show that they are doing their part. I’m not saying it’s right, I just think that part of human psychology is unavoidable.

This isn’t good news. This is saying that they could have been infectious before they showed symptoms.
It’s not talking about true asymptomatics that never show symptoms.

This won’t be popular but as long as he means for the rest of time, it’s a very likely scenario. If he was trying to say in the next couple of months then there is definitely some fear mongering there.

How far up his arse did he have to dig to find that number?

My "ban bet there won't be more than 15,000 confirmed cases" post is getting more legendary by the day.

It's all good. I mean, you were wrong but this fearmongering is ridiculous.

After Super Tuesday, when millions of people went out to vote, gathered in small areas, and swapped pens, shouldn’t we all be dead now?

LAX a bit more chaotic than DFW was. Lots more masks. Not that anyone probably cares

19:08 GMT - Team from coronavirus epicentre to leave Spain to return to Wuhan
Wuhan Zall, the soccer team from the epicentre of the coronavirus, are to leave their training camp in the south of Spain to return to China, with their coach saying they are more at risk in Europe than in their home city.
"The problem right now is here, in China it has been practically eradicated," Wuhan Zall coach Jose Gonzalez told Spain's Efe news agency.

This is something I also don’t get
I feel like I keep getting the message “don’t panic, it isn’t that bad. It’s a mild virus for the majority of people. BUT, let’s grind the economy and our normal way of life to a halt”
It’s just, hard to accept those two things together

Nah. He said 50% in the first wave. What a putz.
