The virus presents with pneumonia-like symptoms and if you pull through those you test negative so I'm not sure why people are dumping on the use of the word "cured." What should they be saying instead?

Anyway I wasn't even referring to that one case, just noticing the posts asking whether it's spread to India yet have a weirdly anticipatory tone to them.

For one, the "everybody gets an IV at the hospital" thing used to be true but I've heard it's way less common now.

FRINGE posted:Im sure you like talking about trains and exact figures of laid train tracks, but the perspective on cultural reactions to things is worthwhile. I had no idea about the fetishization of IVs for example. The point is China is a rapidly changing place and the perspective of someone who lived there a decade ago is like talking to someone who lived in the US 30 years ago about what it's like there now. I picked trains because it's the most glaring example of that change.

It was from a respiratory disease specialist who was on the front lines of fighting SARS.

The interesting thing is that the number of cases in Hubei is still going up, but the rate of infection in the rest of China appears to have plateaued and is actually going down. 611 yesterday and 557 today. Suggests China's response has worked as far as containing the spread goes, but the epicenter is still seeing big increases.

Sheng-Ji Yang posted:yesterday there was 2000 infections, today it was 2500. you really think a 25% increase is going to plateau in just a few days? It might, it might not. It was just a prediction people ITT are misinterpreting for their masturbatory doomsday fantasies. We're still a week out from 10 days and like I said above, the number is dropping for the rest of the country. If the growth stays localized it will be easier to stem.

Those are just hospitalized cases, of course, so there's no hard and fast number for people who had milder symptoms and self-treated at home.

SchrodingersCat posted:I keep seeing a very obviously staged video of a group of 20 "cured patients" leaving a Chinese hospital, all in a massive group, and they are all happy and smiling and waving and I'm like, bitch please, that's not how that works. When you leave a hospital you are usually still half-dead, not happily walking around under your own power. People aren't released until they stop showing symptoms and test negative for the virus over several days. So the last few days of inpatient treatment seem to be healthy people just waiting around for the all-clear.
