Surprised death rates haven't jumped back up yet, seems like it's been long enough they should have. Is that because of younger people getting it/more effective treatments/something else? Haven't seen much on the subject.
Cases skew much younger.
Deaths lag 2 to 3 weeks.
Better treatment options (such as simple steroids).
COVID-1 deaths treated as pneumonia deaths in states seeing a surge?
Better precautions for long-term care homes?

+ Cases are more spread out so no local collapse of health care system yet like in NY
+ Maybe smaller dark figure so more mild cases get detected

we can probably also shuffle respirators around somewhat at moment, can't you 'live' on those for months? it's not gonna really light until ICU's are overloaded, and even then gotta keep an eye on those dementia deaths.

A friend who’s uncle and grandmother just got clear of coronavirus was telling me that the doctor was telling him that one of the reasons the mortality rate is going down is that they are putting people on oxygen and ventilators a lot sooner than they were at first.

Force everyone to sign waivers that they can be sued if they infect you and make you lose money. They will be liable to recompense you plus any emotional damages.

If they love you, they will understand.

I think by end of July this is going to be an absolute disaster. It already is, so pick words more extreme than that. The entire world is just going to further solidify it's (correct) belief that the USA is full of arrogant morons.

My mom got tested through her medicare, they got her in and tested quick but said they are so backlogged with 65+ older medicare tests that it will be almost a week until results are back. So there is a huge lag there. She's was feeling ok yesterday but is starting to feel fatigued today. My dad added chills to his symptoms since yesterday but still no fever. Scary stuff.

Hand sanitizer has become incredibly easy to find for me. I bought face masks in bulk so I’m not sure how hard those are to come by.

Tripon · « **Reply #9418 on:** June 26, 2020, 04:24:30 PM »

You can find off brand hand sanitizer now locally in most stores. Its the on brand stuff (Purell, Germ-X, etc) that is harder to find. Finding it on online stores is also hard. Disposable Masks are fairly easy to buy now (Check out Vietnamese grocery stores for cheap masks, I picked up 2 boxes of 50 count disposable masks for $20 each with sales tax).

Akala · « **Reply #9419 on:** June 26, 2020, 04:33:13 PM »

it's been around here as well, but generally limited to smaller bottles/pumps and limit 1. I haven't seen jumbo tubs for pre-rona prices until this one.
