Also their children. D's announced it early this AM.
Hmmmmm wonder why such a provision was even necessary?
The death rate is at 1% because they have the equipment they need and the beds they need.Quote:

They have 16K cases now and if that trend continues, By Saturday, 32K. By next Tuesday 100K. By a week from Friday 200K. week from next Monday 400k. Two weeks from Friday 800K and the three week mark 1.6 million cases
Look at that number Mush. Stare at the potential of 1.6 million people in NYC alone, sick. At that point, you will have roughly 215k people in need of hospitalization and 120K in need of ventilators. At that point, you will see Drs telling anyone over 60, they can't have a ventilator. If we reach that point, you will see 100k people die in a week
And then there's the rest of the country because NYC doesn't have enough tests so they are only testing certain people. That means all of those who get mild forms of the virus or are undetectable are still walking around and unknowingly, infecting others.
They are saying," I'm from Ohio, I'm just going to go to my parents house"
Stop with the "Dem" crap and pay attention. Talk all the shite you want if this slows down and we are fine. But right now your comments are part of this partisan problem.
Don't be foolish. I know you don't want to look but you have to look.
This is a potential disaster unlike any of us have seen. Wake up.
This is why I love you.Quote:

That is evident in how the country views this threat.
Don't talk about starting up business on April 18th when pretty much every expert has said, NYC will be just hitting its peak at that time.
Don't tell Cuomo he should have purchased ventilators when you know you actually outbid him for them.
Be honest.
I think his actions have been solid. I think his words have been extremely misleading.
As far as you living in Jersey, I posted a terrifying stat. NYC is doubling every 3 days. Their peak is estimated to be in 3 weeks. That would mean 1.6 million cases and 225K in need of medical assistance. That would mean 130K in need of ventilators.
That would mean Drs have to chose who gets treatment and who doesn't
I hope that it gets nowhere near that but DeBlasio has done a crap job regarding the "Shelter in place".
Playgrounds are still open? Seriously, WTF?

NYU’s medical school is allowing students to graduate now, three months early, to become interns and join the fight.
I think a bunch of medical schools will follow suit.Quote:

It illustrates one of the big issues with people living on top of each other. I love NY, but it's not really possible to not be near other people. Living there also, for me at least, made me get in habits that had me out and about regularly ... like going to the market pretty much every day, the pizza joint with the walk up window, standing in lines, there isn't room for everyone to be 6 feet apart.Quote:

Youngsters take note:
In the US, 20% hospitalized with coronavirus are between 20-44 yo
In NY, 53% of COVID19 cases are in people 18-49 yo
A 17 yo died in CA, a 12 yo in GA is on a ventilator
That's the thing that's kept me home. I'm not overly concerned about myself. I turned 31 yesterday, am in good health (as far as I know) and almost never even get a little cold.Quote:

My mom has a Dr appt this morning. Follow up for eye surgery she had last week. I'm currently sitting in my truck waiting for her. I have no desire to be inside the waiting room.
Appreciate the info doc.
