I’m sick too, but more cold type stuff. Coughing, mild nasal congestion. Would think nothing of it if this stuff wasn’t going on, but thinking I shouldn’t go to the store out of respect for others.

Okay, I'll take your word for it since you are more qualified than Dr. O'Neal.


So you are saying she said 80% of cases are asymptomatic. Do you have a transcript of that briefing? That would be way out of line with what almost everyone is saying.

That's what she said. First time I'd heard those stats.

Sure, I have one right here in my back pocket.

frickwad....

ETA: I was more astounded by her opening comment: "Assume you're going to get COVId-19. Everyone in this room should just assume that. We're all going to get it over the next couple of years."

Then she said, "But 80% of us will never know we have it."

I was serious, I think you misunderstood her.

Why? This is also something every expert has been saying for a long time.

How long have you been following this story?

Good news. Two consecutive days of dropping (or basically same level) of deaths. Still early to call it, but it looks like the death curve is topping out.

It’s like saying “everyone in here will get the flu or the cold at some point.”

I’m not saying corona isn’t worse than both. But everyone understands how contagious both of those are

The coronavirus hospitalization rate is 15-19% in New York State: Gov. Andrew Cuomo. This is a really high proportion, which is why everyone is so worried about the hospital bed & ventilator availability. Cuomo also said the NYS peak is expected to be in 45 days.

And we have all kinds of immunities to all kinds of cold and flus. This virus has the capability to mutate rapidly and wipe out shite loads of people that it otherwise would not have because people are being so stupid.

This could be easy and fine or it could be hard, a ton of ill informed ignorant people are choosing to take the hard road.

That’s pretty in line with what is in Europe. Which is why it’s so bad. I think Italy was around 15-16%. But Americans are fat....so.....
