How high the peak gets and how long it lasts is determined by the size of the population being impacted without mitigation. The US lackadaisical and weak response is resulting in a higher peak in NY than in China had because China had much more stringent enforcement. The US could greatly reduce...

Oh I completely agree about the importance of having centralized control during a pandemic, the worst part of it though is that not only was Trump sitting on the Fed's supplies while we had healthcare workers on the front lines not being provided with any PPE in some areas, he told the states to...

https://www.healthcentral.com/article/covid-19-myths-and-facts Yes, we do have more information and sadly more myths. Of course with every illness those with higher risks will have less favorable outcomes, however, this does not somehow mean that others are not at risk. As I linked above, we...

Stating: Getting it now vs getting it later means getting it when we do not have treatment options available to increase favorable patient outcomes to waiting until we do have treatment options available to increase favorable patient outcomes. We are not just trying to keep our healthcare...

Oh. Disappointed. When the other forums I frequented upgraded, they took everything, current threads, users, history.. everything over to their new format so nothing changed on my end. I still just logged in as usual and continued whatever conversation I was having without interruption.

Is the plan to migrate everything over to the new forums including user accounts eventually or will the only option ever be to make new accounts? I don't even think I have the original email I had when I made an account on here anymore if it is linked via email as my old ISP no longer exists. I...

I haven't seen any lies here to be pointed out. Tom Bossert was who was fired from the NSC after calling for more resources to be allocated to Pandemic response prior to Trump's administration eliminating Timothy Ziemer's job. They didn't just disband their team, they diluted the resources that...

Yea it has honestly been quite horrifying seeing the conditions that many of the healthcare workers have been forced to endure during this, especially in NY and other places where they have been sending healthcare providers in without adequate single use PPE, forcing them to reuse N95 masks or...

I do not think this is good advice. Instead, EVERYONE should behave as though they have the virus and can spread it to others and actively take measures to avoid spreading it to others. This means getting together with a few friends without adequate PPE is not something that should be done right...

In addition, they are only effective in combination with social distancing, if you are in a confined space where social distancing isn't possible, more PPE is required in order to provide adequate protection. Covering just your mouth and nose help when not in constant close contact, but when you...

Disbanded is different than firing how? How exactly is eliminating a person's position different than firing them? Only some of the team members were merged with the National Security council, and even they were not funded or listened to, so exactly how were they supposed to prepare for an...

There are numerous factors involved that will impact survival rates such as abundant access to good healthcare, and good living conditions. In some nations, for example, they are not just letting the patients on Ventilators die as they are in the US, instead some nations have even used ECMO +...

Of course there is always a peak, it is that the peak would be much higher and last much longer without mitigation. Of course social distancing, self isolation and PPE is what is lessening this as it would be so much worse without these efforts. People are being told their actions make a...

How do they bill at medicare rate without determining whether or not they qualify, or is the plan to screw the hospitals over when they bill and then just lie to the general public instead? You have to have oversight and have this approved on a case by case basis otherwise they could just invent...

It would take a lot more legislation to change medicaid and medicare to make it actually work here than it would to use Obamacare and would take much longer. We have states that refused the medicaid expansion and the Supreme Court already ruled the Federal government couldn't force them to. You...
