Italy death toll is at 1,809.

Should be some nice real estate deals there the next few years.

‘It’s a great time to go out’: California Republican Devin Nunes talks about life amid the coronavirus pandemic

Actually the number of 80+ who died are at 21.9% of all deaths. But it's weighted heavily towards the older and especially if they had preexisting conditions.

actually i listen to the press briefings by the experts in charge of this and the average age is 80 on one briefing and 81 on the other

 

[newfie]

That number comes from the WHO and includes the following caveats:

1. We don't know how many were infected ("When you look at how many people have died, you need to look at how many people where infected, and right now we don't know that number. So it is early to put a percentage on that."[1][2]).
2. The only number currently known is how many people have died out of those who have been reported to the WHO.
3. It is therefore very early to make any conclusive statements about what the overall mortality rate will be for the novel coronavirus, according to the World Health Organization [1][2].

As we've seen in South Korea, once you start getting a better handle on the actual number of infections, the fatality rate starts coming way down.

to get to 34 million you will have to count every flu and cold sufferer that comes in for C19 testing. even then you wont get anywhere near that number.

 

[newfie]

The death rate hasn't really been established yet. In S. Korea, which has an excellent testing protocol, it's 0.7%, in China it's whatever they want to tell us, and who knows with Iran.

I've also heard an 1% mortality rate vs. 0.1% for the flu, still 10x higher.

Bottom line: It depends on where you are, and the steps they've taken. In other words, the USA is in trouble.

Us has been infected with cases for a month and a half and they have close to 60 deaths. You're in the running for C19 drama queen.

no lines

I'm also not sure about your timeline. China reported it first death january 11th. South Korea had its first case january 20th. the US had their first case in Seattle jan 21. So we had to have the means to test by jan 21st 11 days later. Mass production is more complicated in medical testing because you have to set rigid standards and train the factory to implement those standards. This is where the help of private industry comes in.

long term the problem we have here is too many of our medicines and medical devices are made in china. Its very likely that we have lost the ability therefore to ramp up and produce something like this quickly.

Could be off,maybe it was January 16th they began development of their test,maybe the real key to control is that border policy South Korea has?

‘It’s a great time to go out’: California Republican Devin Nunes talks about life amid the coronavirus pandemic

He should STFU.

From your article:

Meanwhile, on another network, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, offered up a completely different take: “I would like to see a dramatic diminution of the personal interaction that we see in restaurants and in bars,” he told CNN. “Whatever it takes to do that, that is what I would like to see.”

And I'm looking at WHO stats for worldwide deaths. You may be hearing U.S. alone.

What an idiot. I hope he went to church and took communion from the shared decanter. It's a hoax!!!

on a broader scope china has their first death the 11th and the WHO declares an emergency by the 30 . thats not a bad response time considering how slow beaurocracies can move. The problem then becomes that some countries took it seriously and others did not

yep , i'm not listening to world press briefings just ours

The infection curve is flat here in the US, as unknowing, asymptomatic carriers spread Covid-19. When the infections take hold, and millions become ill, the curve spikes as cases grow exponentially.

We've seen it in China, Italy and every other country. If anything, we've done less to prepare and isolate. The time for starting social separation was 3-4 weeks ago.

Nunes is an idiot and so is anyone else minimizing this virus.

Fauci is to be admired for not going along with the deniers. Trump doesn't dare muzzle him.

And if you listened to ours you would hear the world numbers. About a month ago 95% of victims had been men over 50, especially with preexisting conditions. Don't know where that stat is now. The ironic thing is if it killed 20% of our elderly 70 and older it would make Social Security more solvent. And probably would have a boom from a lot of inherited money.

 

[Jumpin Jack Flash]

Surprising low when you compare it to regular flu mortality. Let's hope the numbers keep that way.

62 dead now. This is just beginning. I’ll say it, 500,000 will die because of the guy who paints himself orange.

i repeatedly heard the average age of the victims being 80 thats what i quoted

seriously the American diet is FAR bigger risk than this virus. The worst part about this virus is the panic it’s causing, not the actual virus.

Don't be bad mouthing our great American diet. Bacon is one of the basis food groups.

Average age of deaths was 80. Not the ages of those who got infected. Younger people almost all recovered.

Thank you, guess I have to live another 20.
