Wuhan Coronavirus

[Animal]

The CDC tested a whopping 77 people this week.

does that include Biker's neighbor? This is important.

You do realize how retarded a statement like that is, right?

[FSchmertz]

I believe it's likely that increased testing will actually indicate fatality rates are 1% or even lower. The problem is that the way they're doing the testing is biased towards sicker people. What if 50% of us have it, and 49.99% just think it's a headcold?

honestly, that's probably EXACTLY what is happening. if a tree falls in the woods and no one hears it, did it make a noise? If a person has coronovirus and no one tests to get a positive test result, did they really have it?

"test kits" has become the retards battle cry for what wasn't done right in this pandemic. Like buses after katrina.

See my comment on what that could mean for the old and sick.

Hopefully more testing would allow better management and slow this down.

Can't find the article I saw earlier. I suppose it's possible it said they are considering temporarily suspending liquor licenses for DC bars to prevent people from doing bar crawls for St Patty's day. My apologies

Virginia just closed schools till April 1st and some districts have already closed them until April 14.

And I can confirm that Trump just declared a National State of Emergency. I believe that makes social gatherings of more than 300 people illegal now.

Darn, and I was just hoping to find a good gathering of over 300 people to go sit in.

Yeah, asking about Bicker's neighbor IS pretty retarded.

It's not retarded if you're trying to collect data on infection rates and mortality rates.

have you really thought about what that statement even means? Have you tried to get tested? How many people do you know that have tried to get tested and couldn't find a test? Honestly.

Dallas County has one of the best testing sites in the nation. Does the number of tests they perform show up on your "77 tests in a week" data? Your scare tactics are humorous.

They just had a doctor who showed symptoms call into a talk show while I was getting lunch. A doctor.

He said it was darn near impossible in the NY area.

P.S. Apparently they use a swab to test to the back of your throat. Through your nose. He said "wasn't pleasant."

I think I was just making a point about the failure of the United States government and Trump administration....... I know that's very hard for a trump ball licker
like yourself but that's the truth. and his failure will be repeated over and over and over and over and every commercial until the November elections. Enjoy

here is a fact you can write down. dallas county AND tarrant county have testing facilities that can get Coronavirus test results back in hours. HOURS. The kits that they use come from the CDC (I know its hard for you to imagine the CDC managed to figure out how to send them those kits).

But, don't expect to just have some random symptom and think you are going to walk in there and get tested. they aren't wasting tests on the hypochondriacs.

Sure it really sounds like they have their shit together. The requirements are so strict that sick people infect another hundred people before they are able to get tested. Retarded Texas.

why don't you just admit it. go right ahead and say it. your dumbass idea wouldn't work to do anything you spout off about unless you could test every fucking person in this country and then lock the gates with no travel in or out and every single person tested with no false negative tests.

I will admit, if a person had implemented that policy and had the ability to create 350 million perfect tests in that time period, then that would have worked.

It's sounds like the U.S. was one of the few that couldn't. Maybe we beat Nigeria?

If you are trying to match china or south korean's ability to mass produce assembly line products better than the US, then this is monumental news.

You don't think Europe is outproducing us too? Might want to take the effort to google that.

P.S. But maybe not Nigeria

[Stapes]

Let's be very clear,. Trump did not want those tests going out...he didn't want any numbers making his re-election look bad....they screwed the pooch from the beginning and now they're trying to play catch-up.....he is a fucking fool his administration is full of fucking fools and you're a fucking fool

wow, you are right. Italy has tested 50,000 people and they only have 15 times more cases than we do. This testing idea seems to really solve the problem. Great point you are making.

I know this isn't feasible but if it were possible to check everyone in the US for coronavirus to see who's positive or not and immediately quarantine those who come back positive don't you think that would help end this pandemic more quickly?

In a perfect world (as a physics prof would say "in a vacuum") if you had perfect tests (that gave no false negatives) and if you could contain every single person in isolation for the duration of time it took to get the test results and then you could march the "positive" test people into immediate isolation quarantine then you would only have to do one more thing.

You would have to dress everyone up in perfect hazmat gear to go out and sanitize every single surface that anyone might have touched within the last 5 days. After that you would be good to go. so, yes, that would work.

Don't confuse folks like flumper with facts.

What would make you think that would be necessary?

And FSF, unfortunately we appear to be beyond doing something like that. Earlier on, maybe.

Well, maybe we should study what China is doing 'cause apparently their # of new cases is dropping on a daily basis. At least that's some good news.

you have to remember that china is a third world country. they can tell their people to sit in a box for a month and they will do it without question. i think after a few weeks they quarantined a population about 1/6 the population of the united states.

What I read is WHO sent out 250,000 kits to partners.

Great, now China is threatening to not send over the drugs we need to combat this virus, since we get them all from China. I think we're gonna end up with more cases than China is going to have.
