We all have varying opinions about the impact of this, the numbers, etc. We will all never agree with each other. But we can all keep it civil.

Thanks!

There’s some non peer reviewed stuff coming out of South Korea and China and Italy that the R0 is actually 6

That would be bad. That's as high as the common cold.

Well maybe

Maybe not. That combined with the asymptomatic and mild cases would mean it’s probably burned thru a large population already. That changes the math on a lot of things

I assume cost and supply . we have a few for our Ebola suits. and we normally change masks between patients . maybe in these circumstance they could but try finding enough for staff to not share.

sorry for the somewhat incoherent response.

I had no idea. Guess its from the war and shortages of food from the mainland? Now, I'll always remember that Hawaiians love their spam. Going to have to google some Hawaiian spam recipes now.

It's because there's not much room for animal farming on many of the small Pacific islands that a lot of immigrants came from. All of those small Pacific islands seem to eat lots of spam and canned meats. They also have a thing for mayonnaise.

I am not saying this is the flu so don't go there. But do keep these numbers in mind:

So far this flu season we have had almost 150 pediatric deaths and 16,000 deaths in this country alone.

We are at 277 from Covid-19 in this country so far.

So as the media keeps printing headlines to stir up the most drama and hysteria, please keep this in mind.

Again, I am not saying this is the flu, just trying to provide some perspective of some "other things" going on besides coronavirus.
