Coronavirus

This coronavirus...
We probably all will get it eventually.
Just a matter of time.
But as we slow it's advance we stand a better chance of surviving the virus.
We might have very few symptoms...
We might get very sick.

But slowing it down gives us all a chance at some healthcare that will allow us to survive it. The longer we can wait to catch it the better. Might even get a cure...

Your Atlantic Article-"To achieve this, we need to test many, many people, even those without symptoms. Testing will allow us to isolate the infected so they can’t infect others."

Absolutely. We need tests to defeat this thing. Build hundreds of millions of tests so we can find out who is infected and quarantine them. Test everybody. Absolutely everybody.

Defeat this enemy so the country can get back to work.

Not me, I don't plan on getting it. Whether or not that actually happens only the good Lord knows and time will tell. However, I never had any other serious health problems so my chances look pretty darn good. :)

DOJ seeking emergency powers to arrest/detain indefinitely w/o charges. Gett'n scary.
 
What a complete joke. These insane politicians are shutting the whole country down.

I might not have a job in a couple days, just finding out if we can still harvest.

What am I suppose to do. Lol. No money and no job. Lol. Insane country.

Anyhow, I'm not stressing.

Its true that people develop antibodies to fight it, but that is not the primary reason for China's good numbers. Quarantine and mask wearing combined to prevent infection spreading. The sick eventually got well, and were no longer contagious. Without quarantine and masks, it would likely still be raging until 60% to 80% or so of he population had become infected and recovered. Herd immunity would then have prevented widespread transmission.



Again true, but the time frame is many months, maybe years for that to happen. Without quarantine and masks, the emergency rooms fill beyond capacity, and sick people can't be cared for. Italy is in this situation now. Its a horror show over there. Potentially millions could get zapped by letting it infect a lot of people at the same time. Like the Spanish flu. Yes we have better hospital technology today, but that won't matter if hospitals are beyond capacity and people can't get in. The US has extreme shortages of hospital supplies, further limiting how many people can be cared for. About 15 to 20% of the people infected need help breathing to get through it. Oxygen concentrators through a nose tube in mild cases, and a ventilator through a trachea tube in severe cases.

A much safer approach than letting everyone catch it is to quarantine infected people until they are no longer contagious. Then develop a vaccine to safely induce herd immunity in the population. Unfortunately, the US doesn't have enough testing capacity to find the infected, or enough masks to put one on everyone. They are asking people to stay 6 feet away from each other since they have nothing else to work with.

If they bar chloroquine here, we will make italy look like a cake walk.
 
If I cannot work because the government said so and made me poor with no money and no job, then best the government pay my wages, and I don't want unemployment welfare amount either, I want my normal average salary.

I don't care who pays it just as long as I receive it.
