Default Re: Covid-19 Facts

The numbers between the "flu" and COVID-19 are deceptive so here are some stats for comparing Influenza and COVID-19.


Influenza:
cases per year (average) 1,000,000,000
deaths per year (average) 291,000
calculated death rate 0.029%


COVID-19
cases to date 222,643
deaths to date 9115
calculated death rate 4.09%

Please take this seriously.
All numbers worldwide.


Technical Stuff
Influenza and COVID-19 are both a Chronavirus.
Novel (new) Chronavirus, now named COVID-19 is the illness.
The virus that causes it is named SARS-CoV-2

The scary part is there could be a lot more infected people than what has been reported and they can be moving around the country infecting scores of others.
My nephew was an employee on the Diamond Princess cruise ship and was tested along with all the other employees even the ones with no symptoms. He tested positive and was placed in isolation in a hospital in Japan. During his stay they tested him about 4 or 5 times (he needed two consecutive negatives to be released) After 19 days he was finally cleared and was able to leave the country. He never experienced any flu like symptoms the whole time and if he wasn't tested he would never had known he was carrying the virus. He could have taken it home to family and friends and caused a local outbreak.

I’m getting my information straight from Doc Hudson (Ashton). He’s on the front lines as an ER doctor. He told me today they need to find a vaccine soon......until they do people will continue to panic even months from now....and yes he has to get into that suit and treat patients with coronavirus. Some have been very very sick..scary stuff people..

You know that funding was restored before that happened right? Your source is from 2018. Facebook might be a better place for that post.

Funding was NOT Restored. The Agency was not Reinstated and the People that were fired are working elsewhere at other agencies..

2018 was 2 years ago and there was no logical reason communicated why it was cut. What is stated is BS.

Dan, I've already told you once, the agency you are talking about was absorbed into HHS. There is NO reason to have 2 Govt. Agencies doing the same thing!

Ok site your references...
Trump cut CDC funding, prevented CDC from helping other counties, ended. Gutted the group that handles pandemics..

Tell me BILLY where was it absorbed in HHS.
BTW HHS is a mile from my office...in Rockville Md
Then with bi-partisan support only some funding was restored by Congress..

Why would you cut funding to the CDC and gut whole agencies designed to help us?
Especially designed to mitigate pandemics
Then deny that you did it.
Making comments like People are dying that never died before..!

Trump is like the Capitan of the Titanic.
Warned about the path being taken and the Ice Bergs.
Hits them anyway.
Doesn’t send out a distress signal on the Marconi!
Until way too damn late.
Telling the passengers don’t worry we have enough boats.

Your inconvenience does not trump our counties safety !

Had trump any sense of running a government.
He would have used the DLA designed to help organize infrastructure.

Hey randy ...got your name calling..
Typical response when you have nothing except denial and cult responses..

Dan,
You’re the one that from your very first post on this virus brought in politics, you start the blame game on the administration with your lies, in fact the CDC funding goes up every year and always has that is why are deficit is what 21 trillion, so quit lying. I am not very PC and never will be, so like a typical CULT liberal you can dish it out but can’t take it, surprised you haven’t called me a racist. Your Kenyan President let 12,000 people die with H1N1, where was he at on that, nowhere. Oh yeah this is the Chinese Virus right, or I must be a Xenophobe.
