Mozi posted:according to what they said in the WHO presser, even more than that the bad news is that the 2-3% death rate is actually accurate if you do happen to catch it then; the number isn't being inflated by a lack of testing for asymptomatic people and sure, if there were symptom-less carriers it'd spread easier, but it already has the benefit of being contagious before symptoms begin

Schmeichy posted:Come on dude you're been following this thread long enough to know that diminished lung capacity is serious with the coronavirus. You have a kid, call the doctor so you don't die this is the thing that makes the "don't bother the doctors if you have all of the symptoms, just stay home and cover your coughs" bullshit coming from the government so loving enraging it carries the implication that you're being a burden on the system by trying to do the right thing and getting yourself tested unless you're being dragged into the hospital barely breathing, not to mention that telling people to self-isolate at home just means more people are going to get infected because, you know, not everyone lives loving alone. we better hope that this thing just miraculously burns out going into spring because so far i've seen no signs that the US government is planning on taking proactive measures to address it.

it's up to 10 deaths now from that seattle nursing home and they haven't even loving tested all of the residents yet. one man with dementia got sent home to self-isolate with his son, became sick, and he's still waiting to get tested. there were only 108 residents total and this began what, nearly a week ago now? we can't even get 20 tests a day done? and this is in the one state that seemed to have its poo poo together

Dog Toothbrush posted:Where did the CDC say it's endemic? there's a statement on evergreen health's (that's the hospital where most of the infected people in seattle have been treated) website that the CDC has declared Covid-19 endemic to Washington so they won't be doing any more testing at their clinics basically they're being told to just give up on detection and containment, it's going to be allowed to spread freely and we won't get any accurate case numbers out of the seattle area. this is going to have the knock on effect of making america's death rate look embarrassingly high but i doubt any of the grifter shitheads now infesting the CDC have put that much thought in to this, they just want to protect daddy trump

brugroffil posted:That's one way to keep the official numbers down lol i mean we all joked about trump trying to hide the numbers but i still can't believe we're seeing them actually do this poo poo the definition of an endemic disease is something like the flu or common cold that always exists at a low level in a region, and generally only sees relatively mild spikes in the number of cases (outside of the seasonal spikes). covid-19 is completely new to the US and so it doesn't even make any loving sense to refer to it as being endemic. and this nonsense is coming down from the CDC according to that statement. i honestly thought they'd still be sticking to the science and maybe be hamstrung a bit by trump, i didn't expect the organization itself to be completely compromised.

GABA ghoul posted:I'm no fancy shmancy technologist, bio or otherwise, but the graph seems incredibly wrong about the number of influenza deaths and smells like bullshit. that graph seems pretty accurate to me? including pneumonia in those numbers throws it off because there are ways to get it that don't involve the flu or even any illness, stuff like patients with swallowing disorders aspirating food. searching for flu deaths in italy it looks like 2019 was relatively light, only 40 deaths by the end of january. there were around 250 total from october to february this season and that number might include some early misdiagnosed covid-19 cases.

GABA ghoul posted:That's fair, but then you need to remove pneumonia cases caused by Corona too which will leave you with almost no ICU cases and probably zero deaths. nah you're not understanding: pneumonia can come from non-flu sources, which means flu+pneumonia deaths are always going to be higher than flu deaths alone, which generally will also involve pneumonia. if you're comparing flu to covid-19 you want just the flu deaths, not flu+pneumonia from other sources. the WHO probably puts those numbers together because it's useful for determining how well a country's medical system handles respiratory crises.

GABA ghoul posted:I'm not arguing with you that poo poo is really bad and accelerating at an astonishing rate. I just saw a graph with 30 something influenza death in winter for a boomerified country of ~50 mio and that smelled like total bullshit spinning. the data in that graph comes directly from the ISS, a government body that monitors admissions to the ICU /deaths from the flu in italy. that number is being compared directly to ICU admissions/deaths from covid-19, which is a completely valid thing to do. and it's not showing 30 deaths for all of the winter, it's showing ~30 deaths over one week in winter. i agree that those flu deaths seem kind of low, but then again it's only claiming to show those who were hospitalized and got admitted to the ICU/died for both the flu and covid-19. granny dying in bed because she couldn't breathe but didn't go to the hospital wouldn't be counted, but that granny dying of covid-19 isn't going to get counted either so it shouldn't change the comparison much.
