Wuhan Coronavirus

[Burn1dwn]

It appears there is a really long delay between the time a person comes in contact with the virus and when the person starts to get sick. That number appears (based on these two examples) to be 15 to 20 days. So, if a city initiates a lockdown or shelter in place, they are probably not going to start seeing any benefit in the trend of the numbers for up to 3 weeks. That's kind of alarming because most people don't have that kind of patience.

There is already historical data (it's even American) showing that giving up on Social Distancing too soon can have terrible consequences. There was no point in doing this unless we were going to stick with it to buy as much time as possible.

"With the worst of the contagion still expected to be at least two to three weeks out, Cuomo said the state is working to establish at least one 1,000-bed overflow hospital in each of the five boroughs, plus Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester and Rockland counties.

It’s projected that the state will need at least 140,000 hospital beds at the disease’s peak, easily more than double New York’s 53,000 permanent beds."

Should it happen? Fuck no!
But if Trump wants it to happen, it will. All his sycophants will dutifully fall in line and do whatever he asks.

How are they going to open "large parts of Texas" without locking out/in people from the areas that are going to remain closed?

i'm not entirely sure exactly how it would work and I certainly wouldn't speculate before we see what events unfold in the next 2 weeks. Things are moving so freaking fast right now its impossible to project anything.

BUT, that being said, if you give me a criteria I would ABSOLUTELY be able to retool my business and how it is conducted in order to protect my employees and the people they encounter during the performance of the job we provide. And I would think that most other business owners could do that same thing. These aren't policies that can be painted with one brush. These are individual policies, techniques, procedures, etc. that each business has to develop that fit their particular business. A government can't dictate those kinds of measures. a government can hardly mail out a stimulus check without having to spend 3 days figuring out who gets it and how much. this is way over the heads of a government to figure out.

Since I am an essential business, we are pretty much already doing that. my employees are going above and beyond in order to limit contact or transmission. Our basic rule is that "everyone is infected, so act like it".

Everyone check out the Texas CV curb graph the next week or 2. Self isolation and shelter in place has been in place in the bad affected areas for a week or more. Now we will see how this CV fucker stands up to our strongest defense. Today, it was a record high of 97.

i posted earlier that my research into all of the stories going around indicate that any measure taken against this virus can take as much as 3 weeks to determine if it is having an effect. And then we are going to be hurt by the rats fleeing Louisiana right now. That place is erupting with the virus.
