Yep. For the most part, discussion based on people doing basic math with a 4-banger calculator is largely useless.

So...dafuq? WERE they in dire straights? Sure seems that way. Were they ignored? No, and help is inbound. So seriously - what the hell? This idea that there's someone to blame for everything and "THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE IN AMERICA!!!!" is nutty. Math is the same here as it is anywhere else. We're responding damn well and yet all some want to do is bitch. |

Cuomo said Thursday his office has reached out to city hospitals and while there may be some spot issues with distribution, they say they have adequate personal protective equipment for now. If they find themselves short, the governor said he'd have the state send more, adding "we have enough PPE for the immediate need." But New York doesn't have enough to last much longer, given an infection rate that Cuomo said earlier this week "continues unabated." |

Read this and take from it what you like but NY specifically was warned in 2015 they didn't have enough supplies for a pandemic and they ignored it for the most part. |

Yea like 2 weeks ago tomorrow I saw the predictions that by this weekend we would have 5 Wuhan's and the skies would be black with the smell of all the burning bodies they would not be able to get to fast enough. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden...-estimates.htm In the last 6 months the CDC's numbers for just the US in flu deaths surpasses the worlds total for Corona Virus to date. |

It COULD be 30% based on cases outside of China that doesn't have a result. But a good chance that some recoveries have and are not being reported. When you factor in people who have it and are mild symptoms but don't seek help it's obviously much lower. |
