re: The reason we have few cases of COVID-19 in the US is because they aren't testing for it.

Correct. The overwhelming majority of Emergency Departments do not have the ability to test for it aside from doing a Chest CT and looking to see if things look ARDSy.

fact - coronavirus is no more serious then a bad cold and the regular flu we get each year is 10x worse
This is really how I feel about it — I’m really not worried about this more than I am the flu. Maybe I’m the one who is nuts but I don’t think so.

Yeah. This isn’t true.
And you know that how?
That is exactly what happened to the person in CA who the CDC wouldn't test because the person didn't fit the profile.
You're useless.

So if 300k Chinese have had the virus, most have shown no symptoms, and what, 3k have died? What is that 1% of people who get it died? What percentage of that is over 50? 75%?
Yea this is complete crap. Markets will rebound once China reopens all their factories.

Conservatives are the only people I know if freaking out about it IRL because of Faux News fear mongering. Dems all know better.
Wow. A new level of insanity or pathological liar?

The sample does need to be shipped to a testing site for the time being. So there can be a delay of a day or so in reporting. But testing is occurring.

You’re in every thread on this topic trying to spread fear and panic.
Given your history of TDS, it’s pretty obvious you want to hype this because you think it will be politically damaging to the President.

I think they are estimating COVID19 is about 2.8 or thereabouts, currently

Just yesterday the WHO had it 1.4 to 2.5. Another source had it with a mean of about 4 (1.4 to 6.49), but if this thing really started in late November, if it hit a 5 or 6 at any point, that would have been like a match to gasoline across China.
I'm trying to be rational. COVID19 is not a rampaging disease outside of China. And it is not a big killer outside China or Iran.
This is SARS 2.0 until it isn't. Everyone would be best served by remaining calm until we have more information.
