Another thing I would like to see reported is the percentage rates of deaths to confirmed cases. Although the US has higher numbers of both, the death rate is one of the lowest, 3.47% last time I did the math. But I guess this is good news, so it’s best not to broadcast it. SSMH

It is starting to get real for us now. My husband knows two people that have Corona. Before it was just statistics.

| That’s it isn’t it? Until it’s personal it’s just a number.

| I see how older people would be at greater risks but there’s been a lot of younger people falling victim to this

| I was watching Dr. Phil this morning. He said the Corona virus will start to slow down as the warm weather approaches but we are to continue wearing mask, keep 6 ft distance, stay away from crowds. He said this is just the first wave. He said in Oct. when the regular flu season comes the Corona virus will be twice as bad as it is now. He had a Dr. on that said they are working on a vaccine, it will take 18 months or longer before it can be given. He is advising isolation until a vaccine for this strain of virus is found. Dr. Phil said ppl in general, when they hear numbers of cases declining they will feel the end is coming close and begin going back to life as we once knew it, and the virus will spread again and be worse then it is now. He asked this Dr. how many deaths are expected between now through next winter entering the summer, she said 10 million, she didn't say if that number was world wide or just the USA. She also said Italy and Spain are still getting hit hard. I say, this is one way to decrease the population of ppl in this world.

| I was wondering the same thing. Australia I read had got people coming in off a cruise ship for some of their cases.

| I saw on the news about two weeks ago that they actually did have a vaccine for this about five or so years ago but they didn’t make it because none of the drug companies want to fund it because at that time of course they didn’t see this pandemic happening.

| As Dr. Phil was explaining our normal flue season is Oct. trough now Spring time and few cases in the summer, the Corona virus will behave "almost" as our flu, ppl will still be getting it but just less cases but it's still out there. He was talking only about the USA not other countries. Dr. Phil has a instagram and FB page, you can always go there and ask him about southern Flordia, Louisiana and California. I am only repeating what he said to make you aware, if you hear cases are declining do not feel that we are safe.

On the other hand I’m really not trusting the numbers because those numbers reflect only the cases that have actually been reported and the reporting protocols are different. So someone that happened to have coronavirus but died of a heart attack and they haven’t been able to determine if the coronavirus caused the heart attack or if they just had a heart attack would they have had it if they didn’t have the coronavirus and that kind of stuff. I really believe that the actual numbers are a lot higher all over.

Unless a medical examiner/coroner does a post mortem, there is really no way to know if Covid19 or the cancer or another existing disease process actually led to the heart beating its last. It seems to me that an early, mild case of Covid19 virus in the system isn't necessarily and always actually the immediate cause of a heart stoppage in an already very sick patient and attributing all deaths to it is likely the most opportune conclusion without a PM for every death. We don't know if the advanced heart disease process, staff mistakes, poor medical management, an undiagnosed other infection/virus, blood thinners or other medications, etc. accidentally skipped, improperly ordered or over/under administered in the hours before that death; or what actually happened to cause that embolism or another issue eventually stopping the heart. But if that patient had been correctly or incorrectly diagnosed with Covid19, I'm lead to believe, that's listed as the cause of death by the medical provider. Maybe if he falls out of bed causing an open fracture of the skull with brain matter leakage just after his Covid19 admission, that would be listed differently but likely his admission for Covid19 would be listed as the cause of death.
