☣️🦠☣️🦠 Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information Thread 🦠☣️🦠☣️

[leoslayer1]

if covid is similar to a cold, and she had a cold at the same time, that could easily lead to death i think. my pneumonia as a kid started as a cold on a rainy day, then when i got home it quickly happened

i think even covid + allergies would be hell. covid + sinus infection. idk

80% of people that get covid is mild symptoms. that 20% that gets severe symptoms is still a huge chunk of risk and people

85% of people recover from concussion/head injury after a week. 90%+ recover after 3 months. others well, recover after years or never recover. and i'm one of the people that didn't recover after 3 months for example of that percentage of risk.

You're wrong.

Mild doesn't mean mild like a cold. Mild just means doesn't require hospitalization.

Mild can still suck very bad.

200 people in NYC have died from this virus. NYC has 10m people, yet somehow morgues are “close to capacity” from this virus?

This is all manufactured.

It says they expect to be next week. IE when there potentially a few thousand deaths.

[leoslayer1]

Just wait for the entire economy to collapse on itself. 1000 deaths is nothing, people die every day from sickness.

I'm so sick of you crying about money.

You are a low character individual.

[iabs]

Dr. Fauci think its seasonal.

Of course it's seasonal, so is the fuking FLU.


This is not going back in the box, let's hope we have a vaccine ASAP or at least a standardized safe drug for treatment.

But, we have to open up the economy by Easter, we can maintain quarantine in heavily affected areas like NYC and reinforce the areas that are to be re-opened for business with sanitary protocols (PPE, hand sanitizers, maintaining social distancing), but it is imperative that we reduce the delay, every day that passes is an increased number of jobs that are NOT coming back for the foreseeable future.

Good news
New cases are slowing (check graph and look at the dark red)

The article states:
“The Department of Homeland Security has been briefed that New York City’s morgues are nearing capacity, according to a department official and a second person familiar with the situation.”

So 200 deaths have put the morgues near capacity in a city of 10m. Seems legit.

not talking about mild or moderate, i know these are just labels, they call my condition "mild traumatic brain injury" it's not ****ing "mild" lol. they usually call anyone that doesn't go close to dying from a brain injury "mild traumatic brain injury." but my point is covid develops similar symptoms to a cold according to doctors. fatigue, i've heard doctors say runny nose, coughing, muscle aches, trouble breathing, general respiratory symptoms. already making it hard to breathe. then if you get a really bad common cold on top of that, chest congestion, sneezing, wheezing, etc. it would make it so much harder to breathe. the complication could be too much, and i could see that turning into pneumonia, or death from not being able to breathe. asphyxiation.

this is just hypothetical, not saying this is how she died. i think how she died was she got pneumonia from covid-19, end of story. that's all that's required, is the virus to develop into pneumonia and boom death.

It says next week multiple times. Plus why can’t they be near capacity anyway, they have next to no reason to be oversized, I’d imagine death rates are relatively consistent.

Did you not hear about the stimulus package?

[rise21]

It says that the morgues are near capacity from 200 deaths in a city of 10m. That’s literally the first thing the article says.

You know people can die from other things still right? Or do you expect morgues to have a sufficient standard capacity to cope with a pandemic? Its blindingly obvious what the article is alluding to, ie they’re full as it is let alone before a few thousand deaths in a week

[leoslayer1]

Did you not hear about hyperinflation?

Point blank they are going to give forgivable payroll loans to businesses to maintain jobs.

So, you're telling me you can print an unlimited amount of money and NOT cause hyperinflation?

Why are you on the misc, brah? hurry call the FED.

Seems like extremely poor planning at the very least, if not outright negligence on the part of the mayor and his medical advisors if that’s the case.

Can you tell me what percentage of 10m 200 is? And how they can’t handle that?

[LukeLissen]

The article states:

That's 200 -extra- deaths, most of them which have come in the past week, -on top of- the normal deaths that are in morgues anyway apart from this pandemic. Most hospitals generally don't have massive morgues with plenty of overflow. They typically have room for what they normally deal with plus only a little bit more but not much more. The last hospital I worked at had room for 10 bodies and usually was holding about 2-5.

We all know the article is fear mongering nonsense. Who cares if they can't handle any sort of abnormal death rate? Why is that news worthy? Is it to inform people, or scare them by stating morgues are overflowing?

[leoslayer1]

I think you can do it for a short period of time and hold even.

People also forget that as people recover they can go back to work.

You may want to look into how many of those 10m actually die in a typical day. Having another 250 bodies show up this week is a pretty significant extra burden.

But, we have to open up the economy by Easter, we can maintain quarantine in heavily affected areas like NYC and reinforce the areas that are to be re-opened for business with sanitary protocols (PPE, hand sanitizers, maintaining social distancing), but it is imperative that we reduce the delay, every day that passes is an increased number of jobs that are NOT coming back for the foreseeable future.

Bruh, MA, FL, and MI all reported 500+ new cases today. 1/3 of America's GDP is produced in 31 counties and 5 of those are in the three states I just mentioned. Easter is not a realistic target, although rolling lockdowns with some areas unlocking as others lock is a possibility.

[chalup]

The last hospital I worked at had room for 10 bodies and usually was holding about 2-5.

Why is this news? Why should anybody care if a morgue can't handle 200 extra deaths? What exactly are people gaining by being told this?

our morgue has 12 slots. One is for amputated stuff and one for still borns...so 10 adult bodies.

it's not unheard of for it to be full and us having to leave a body on a stretcher until the funeral home gets there

It’s a city of 10m. 200 deaths is part of the error % in statistics in that sample size.

Probably less car accidents though

6 to 10 mths

[TrinnieBuu]

It’s interesting how when talking about capacity most people assume that places like hospitals and morgues typically run at near zero capacity.

At any given time 70% of hospital beds are in use. You don’t kick out people dying for other reasons to house someone dying from COVID. So even attempts at clearing up beds only go so far.

Idk at what capacity morgues run at. But as businesses they can’t run at near empty.

I’ve been trying to stay away from harsh words bc economy and SARS are two very hard rocks to be stuck between. But some of y’all need to stop accusing people of exaggerating when you do the same in the opposite way. Two morons don’t make a right person.

[ANumber1]

Again, look into it. Coronavirus basically put an entire extra day's worth of dead bodies into the week's load.

The 200 deaths didn’t happen in a week. That’s the cumulative total for NYC.

[ANumber1]

How long do you think this has been going on?

The first death was only ten days ago. Nearly all of these have taken place in the last week. They were at 99 two days ago.
