Healthcare workers should be prioritized in testing. They are more important than patients.


Christ almighty why can't we get testing rolled out in mass? I don't understand it. South Korea has set up drive through testing stations all over the country where people can get tested without even leaving their car and have probably already tested a million people. In the U.S. you have to get special permission to even get tested at this point. WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK is the United States doing? Why are we completely inept at this?
 
calm down, bro

the hysteria is a dry run for what's really on the way.

look for it in 5-10 years.

They are diagnosing people from chest x rays before confirming it with test.

Not surprised one bit that SK is making us look bad.

This is the US Federal Government we are talking about

The people in charge should all get fired. We had a two month head start and can’t even get shit done. Fuck them.

Do you think this is a hate crime?

I think it's not what this thread is for, that's what I think.

You definitely should start a new discussion on that sort of U.S Breaking News involving various dumb people doing dumb shit though, so it wouldn't clog up the International-level Breaking News flow in here.
 
Korea's hot streak of 500+ daily new cases continues, no doubt because of their extensive testings:




Again, take these numbers with a pinch of Remidisvir:

So I just got some alarming news from my mom. Shes been a lab manager for a group of about 60 doctors, internal medicine, gynecologist, gastro doctors. Her boss who is basically trys to keep a handle on all the doctors told her to get the CoronaVirus test. They can do all your normal type blood work as well as cultures and things of that nature but everything above that is either sent to quest or labcorp. Well she called every single person she could as well as the State of Tennessee and the answer she got was a test doesn't exist.. Now I have no idea how to take that but it isn't something she would lie about. That is extremely alarming.. How did they confirm a case in Tennessee? And if none of those nation wide labs nor the state itself have or know where to send specimens, who the fuck does?
 
Italy is consistently holding on to their #1 spot in Europe, with their mortality rate currently at a staggering 3.8% (*), and the Italian government's directives designed to shields the elderly are completely ignored by their people, young and old.​

Coronavirus: Italy says it's had 41 new COVID-19 deaths in just 24 hours

By Euronews • 05/03/2020



Italy says it's had 41 new COVID-19 deaths in just 24 hours.

The country's civil protection agency said on Thursday evening that 3,858 people had been infected and 148 had died.

Italy: Europe's worst-hit country

A day after announcing it would shut all schools and universities for two weeks, Italy reported a sharp hike in COVID-19 deaths.

The death toll jumped from 107 people on Wednesday to 148 on Thursday.

The northern regions of Emilia-Romagna and Lombardy — which surround Milan — remain the worst-hit with nearly three-quarters of all the country's infections.

Lombardy has had 98 deaths and 2,251 cases; Emilia-Romagna 30 fatalities and 698 infections.

Angelo Borrelli, who heads up Italy's civil protection agency, said the outbreak had not hit the number of hospital beds available.

"For the moment, there are no major difficulties regarding the number of beds available in hospital structures," said Borrelli.

"When the intensive care beds are all occupied in one region (...) our coordination centre finds them in the neighbouring regions."

Of the 3,858 coronavirus cases, 1,790 people are in hospital and 351 in intensive care.

A government decree that took effect Thursday urged the country's famously demonstrative citizens to stay at least 1 metre apart from each other, placed restrictions on visiting nursing homes and urged the elderly not to go outside unless absolutely necessary.

That directive appeared to be widely ignored, as school closures nationwide left many Italian children in the care of their grandparents. Parks in Rome overflowed with both young and old, undercutting government efforts to shield older Italians from the virus that hits the elderly harder than others. Italy has the world's oldest population after Japan.


Lorenzo Romano, making lunch for his grandchildren, saw a positive side to having kids stay home from school.

“Altogether, it makes me happy, because then I have them around me more,” he said.

(* For all you new-comers to the discussion : that's 38 times more deadlier than the seasonal flu, which only kills 0.1% of those infected).​
