    Case death rate.. death rate based on the number of known cases. That just means there are a lot more unknown cases that are not severe or asymptomatic. Even the New England Journal of Medicine recently published an article saying that I was right, and it is most likely closer to the death rate of the seasonal flu, or maybe a particularly bad flu. 0.1% or so.

    The good news is new deaths were down almost 20% yesterday, and new cases were down about 30% or so yesterday.

    1/27 WHO raises alert level but is still saying China has it contained.

    1/28 CDC states “ While CDC considers covid a serious situation and is taking preparedness measures, the immediate risk in the US is considered low.”

    1/29 White House announces Coronavirus Task Force created. Note - this is despite the WHO downplaying the threat!

    1/31 Trump bans travel from China.

    Media and multiple Democrats slam his decision calling it racist/xenophobic.

    It seems the democrats made quite a few mistakes in this pandemic, the liberals and media should have listen to CDC.

    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage.

    Do any stats anywhere account for everything? No.

    That's part of the point. That is the death rate based upon "official" stats. It is not accurate. It never will be.

    The only value these stats have is to measure change, provided that the stats are still gathered the exact same way, with the exact same criteria. Change the criteria for how the stats are collected, and even the measure of change becomes worthless. And government is notorious for changing the criteria in order to manipulate stats over time.

    Already seen evidence of Statistical Manipulation. I would expect more,,

    I expect the death rate to be the same as a Cold..

    This should be highlighting the "care" or indifference the elderly are receiving.

    The Deaths are concentrated where the elderly are concentrated.

    I had a really good doctor. Diagnoses was I think you have a viral infection attacking your respiratory system and he can't determine if it's Corona but thinks it could be.. He gave me a flu test and EKG my heart and x-rayed my lungs. He told me to stay home and self isolate. He got me a prescription for z pack and some anti nausea medicine. No test for Corona and he said flu tests are delayed because of the pandemic so he gave me a script for tamiflu but then called me 3 hours later and said not to take it because flu test came back negative.

    yeah I was getting progressively worse for the last two days and was dehydrated. He gave me some asthma steroids because I could only take shallow breaths without a lot of pain and the anti nausea medicines helped me keep some fluids and Benadryl down. I felt like I was choking on fluids for two days straight and my asthma inhaler wasn't helping me breath better

    I pray that you get better soon.

    What a joke our system is that they won't test you. Please warn others that you may have exposed just in case.

    For what it is worth, I noticed that some doctors were having patients with breathing difficulties to lay in the prone position for better oxygenation. If I recall correctly, there were some old osteopathic techniques that would have pneumonia patients lay prone with the head down to assist in lung drainage. It may sound crazy, but slathering Vic's in the chest and back may help.

    Please let us know how you are progressing.

    Part of the issue I think is that the old tests took quite a few days or longer to get the results because they had to ship them out and the labs were backed up. Now they have new tests that you get the results in 5 minutes or 15 minutes. There are 18,000 machines around the country that can process the test. So they may have had old test kits at the hospital on hand, but they are expected to get the 5 or 15 minute test kits soon so they are not using their stash of old kids because they expect that they will be able to test people sooner if they wait for the new kits.

    Well your Governor is a dip$#@!. He banned Hydroxychloroquine from being prescribed for Covid-19. The one thing that $#@!ing works. If I were you I would not be in that state right now, you obviously have a Governor who doesn't know what the $#@! they are doing. No wonder they don't have any tests. Hate to say it it, but you would be much better off in California.

    They have the machines in Las Vegas. It's the same machine that they use for the flu. They don't have the testing kits that are needed that go with the machine and won't get them very soon.

    Blame your governor, the federal govt. has plenty of tests and they have had calls with the state governors recently there is no reason they should be out.

    Either that, or they are telling you they don't have any because they are rationing them for old people.

    Doctors in New York don't even necessarily get the test kits for these machines. They have not made produced them yet.

    There are 2,000 cases in your state. Probably about 10% of cases come back positive, so they have probably done about 20,000 tests or so in NV so far. There are millions of tests available, the US has tested millions of people.

    I'm guessing you were rationed out of a test because you are young and healthy, they have tests at your hospital or at a hospital near you. The numbers go up every day.

    There were stories days ago of entire hospital staffs being tested. That is another issue, they are hoarding the tests for health workers so they can get them back in the empty hospitals in case there is a surge.
