Corona Virus- Panic Buying

Did that 20 something have underlying health issues? One case doesn’t constitute a death sentence for everyone that contracts it.

Teens and people in their 20s also encounter many others, at school and work and on public transit, yet they don’t seem to be contracting the disease at significant rates: Only 8.1% of cases were 20-somethings, 1.2% were teens, and 0.9% were 9 or younger. The World Health Organization mission to China found that 78% of the cases reported as of Feb. 20 were in people ages 30 to 69.

No underlying issues whatsoever. There are multitudes of this affecting people to deaths door regardless of age or comorbidities .

I tried to do my part to help keep this stuff from spreading. Was at my heart doctor's appointment. There was a man reading one of the magazines sitting across the room from me. He started to hack up a lung and was using the magazine as a shield then closed the magazine and put it back up. Yuck! I told one of the ladies working in there and she immediately went and confiscated the mag and kinda chewed the dude out. I recommended to my doctor that they get rid of all the magazines in the office and exam rooms until this is under some kind of control. He said he would look into that immediately!

Good. There shouldnt be community anything in a doctors office right now....huge liability. They could do contract tracing, trace back to who gave it to you when and where, and you could sue the bejesus out of said doctor.

Couple weeks ago, it was less than a dozen.

EDIT: Actually it was 9 on March 3rd - 8 days ago. :/

Ok... Hobbes said 1281 today.

I did a little math... there were 9 cases 8 days ago, and 1281 today. That's an approx 1.85% daily increase.

If you run that percentage for 30 days (starting with 9), you get 931,953,752 cases. The current population of the United States is approx 330,409,424 as of Wednesday, March 11, 2020 (Google it if ya want).

Wash your hands people, this ain't no joke. :/

When you posted it was 1110.
An hour later it was 1281.

We are starting to get results from more testing.
It's not nearly enough testing, but it is returning more cases.
ROK tests more people in one day than we have tested to date.

I sincerely hope I'm wrong but I fear that 2 weeks from now we will be in the same boat as Italy.
