Rate of spread would be the ideal way to determine the impact of mitigation efforts. Under 50s are no more or less likely to spread the virus, some would say more likely due to more mobile than 50 plus and more prone to gather in groups foolishly and against the guidelines we have established. The restrictions will need to stay intact after we begin to see declines, and the easing of restrictions will need to be don slowly so we can monitor the impact of each...and likely hotbeds of infections will be the last areas that should get relief. Hopefully the med community will have a standard process in place to deliver vaccinations in an orderly manner |

That's true but I mean I think it is kind of harsh to call other ppl weak because they may have a physical condition that is no fault of their own. Lets try and work together to beat this and not act like we are better than ppl because some of us were lucky enough to not be born w some disabilities Another good point lol |

The other issue is that false negatives increase the likelihood of further spreading the virus, as those people are less likely to self-isolate or quarantine.

I haven't yet read this paper and am not an economist, but for those of you most concerned about the economic impact of this, it may be a worthwhile read:
https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....act_id=3561560 The abstract states that the areas with the most rigorous public health response to Spanish flu were no worse off economically than those that eased restrictions earlier. "We find no evidence that cities that acted more aggressively in public health terms performed worse in economic terms,” says Emil Verner, an assistant professor in the MIT Sloan School of Management and co-author of a new paper detailing the findings. “If anything, the cities that acted more aggressively performed better.” |

It makes sense. The harder and faster you lock it down the faster you can get back to work theoretically |

looks like it
Heard a report on the news last night that in NYC emergency rooms, if a patient goes into cardiac arrest and has no pulse when the ER team arrives, to not even try and revive. Call the death, clear & clean the room and wheel the next patient in. |

The policy is in regards to cardiac arrest in the field and resuscitation by EMS. If return of spontaneous circulation is not achieved in the field, the patient is no longer being transported to the hospital. The patient is declared dead in the field. Believe it or not, there is a lot of evidence to support this, you cannot do high quality CPR in the back of an ambulance, and if return of circulation does not occur in the field it is very unlikely to occur in the hospital. I'm not certain, but I believe there are already EMS systems that have this policy in place, and it has nothing to do with Covid-19 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK541113/ |

Yes it is true and it's already been posted in this thread. .16%
I am not claiming that figure is a final number but that it is being reported as such is 100% true. So, you can kindly **** off if you'd like to claim otherwise you arrogant piece of shit Sent from my moto g(7) power using Tapatalk |
