Too bad SIP wasn’t around when Corey Maggettee or Rasheed Suliamon were terrorizing coeds one Durham.

SIP will not do anything. People have already been exposed to the Virus. The people you have already been around in stores, surfaces you touched, etc. It has already happened. Social Distancing is fine, however forcing a curfew or forcing quarantine will not go well. Just be vigilant, wash your hands, be courteous of others, and it will be fine. It is a huge mistake ordering SIP, it will cause more mental harm, and physical harm, then the actual virus will.

Nope! That's not what the evidence from South Korea and China suggests. Italy has taken the foolish route---like us---and that's where our curve is headed! 

You want social upheaval & societal instability, go the dumb route!

So staying-in-place causes more harm than choking to death on your own blood? D:

Virus don't walk or fly. They spread when people move and they have a shelf life on surfaces. Pretty simple.

This post is proof you are not a real doctor. Jesus Christ.

Anyone, including our dumb President, suggesting that we don't deal with coronavirus aggressively is a fool! Simply a fool! This is the most current curve data!

As you can see, our cases are skyrocketing!

The worst thing would be to start this process, incur the economic toll, then bail on it and get hammered then try to start it again. We haven't even reached to point it is mathematically possible to realize any benefits and people want to bail on it.

Everyone is a fool, look at my chart!!

 

Go a bit deeper.

Our cases are skyrocketing for 2 reasons, first, we started mass testing a couple weeks ago, 2nd, we are way behind on getting results.  The backlog will be catching up soon now that the test reading is in place, but CDC says to expect huge numbers as they catch up on all backlog tests.  There is a bit of a lag in results, even though people already have it, just have no been notified.  Thus the 2 week thing, to catch up on all testing and results.  Expect very high numbers of cases over the next week.

Deaths are real time however.

NYC has a third of all deaths in US.  One city.  Been saying that for a couple weeks and anyone who has been to NY knows there is no room for anything like distancing there.  It is one large petri dish.  Concentrating on them is a good thing.

I have no problem with testing, but we should've been aggressively preparing months ago and aggressively testing weeks ago probably in January. The urgency and importance of this threat should never have been downplayed by anyone, much less the POTUS. And the fact is, there were a few people sounding the alarm! And after all that, now you have even more fools like the LT Gov. of Texas promoting Trumpian foolishness, which will inevitably compound our serious problem, and who knows where that will lead?

We aren't mass testing. It's nearly impossible to get tested unless you meet specific criteria. We need to be but we don't have the resources. A friend is over 65 and meets multiple  other  CDC testing  criteria associated with previous conditions to be tested AND just flew through Korea and Seattle and cant get a test. 

I was out of the country. There was a number you call if you feel symptoms. They coordinate where you go to get screened and most likely tested. You might have to pay $25 for this.  Here it's a convoluted mess where each insurance provider, each healthcare system, each hospital, etc have different standards and policies towards this.  I just returned home to be here for my elderly parents. If not for that I would have stayed where I was. I've been listening to stories of friends and acquaintances needing tests this past 2 weeks and getting nowhere. It helps if you are famous.
