It just struck me.
The demographics of Africa.
The population is vastly young. Doesn't mean they cant get it and spread, but if it seems to kinda be unimpressive so far, I would surmise because population is so young. Compared to Italy, where they live pretty long on the Meditteranean die, but also having less kids, so population has larger % of older folks.

Not just that, but it's far warmer there too, and coronavirus appears to spread best in cold dry climates. Look at all the main outbreaks so far - China, South Korea, Japan, Iran, Italy, France, Spain, USA. They're practically all at the exact same latitude. While the warmer places nextdoor to them - Thailand and the rest of southeast Asia, India and the rest of south Asia, Africa, Central and South America - all those spots are barely touched.

Plus folk in Africa ain't traveling all over short-term like that. They travel, but not the back-and-forth-the-same-week sort of international travel that would have a ton of folk picking up the disease then bringing it back to the community within a short time frame.

Just before midnight Wednesday, a doctor asked a group of fellow emergency room physicians on Facebook how they would combat the escalating coronavirus outbreak.

“I have direct channel to person now in charge at White House,” Kurt Kloss wrote in his post.

Inside Jared Kushner’s coronavirus research: a wide net on a giant Facebook group

The next morning, after hundreds of doctors responded, Kloss explained why he sought the suggestions: Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, had asked him for recommendations.

Kloss, whose daughter is married to Kushner’s brother, sent Kushner 12 recommendations Thursday morning.

This administration is fukking insane stupid. They have access to the best epidemiologists and disease experts in the world yet they're getting advice from family friends of the half-retarded son-in-law.

Looked up that Seema Verma cat cause I hadn't noticed her before. She's a real piece of work, a perfect fit for this administration.

Seema Verma - Wikipedia

"In 2014, concerns were raised over a potential conflict of interest arising from Verma's dual roles as both a health care consultant for Indiana and an employee of a Hewlett-Packard division that is among Indiana's largest Medicaid vendors.[6] As of 2014, SVC Inc. had been awarded over $3.5 million in Indiana state contracts while Verma was concurrently employed with Hewlett-Packard, earning over one million dollars during a period when the company had secured five hundred million dollars in state contracts."

"In March 2019, Politico reported that in her role as CMS administrator, Verma approved communications subcontracts worth more than two million dollars of taxpayer funds on Republican-connected communications consultants and other expenses to boost her visibility and public image. Included in the consultants' work were proposals to have Verma featured in magazines like Glamour and have her invited to prestigious events like the Kennedy honors to increase her public persona."

"Politico reported that Verma clashed with Acting HHS Secretary Alex Azar over which plans will replace Obamacare and who will get credit for those efforts, according to anonymous administration officials. Reportedly, this was not the first clash Verma had with her superiors as Politico reports that Verma hired a lawyer to file a claim of a "hostile work environment" against Secretary Tom Price."

"On August 20, 2018, Verma filed a claim requesting that taxpayers reimburse her for jewelry that was allegedly stolen on a work-related trip to San Francisco. Although she requested $47,000, including a $325 claim for moisturizer and a $5,900 Ivanka Trump-brand pendant, she ultimately received $2,852.40 in reimbursement."

So she's simultaneously corrupt as fukk and vain as fukk. And when it comes to doing her actual job?

"One of her first actions was to send a letter to the nation's governors, urging them to impose insurance premiums for Medicaid, charge Medicaid recipients for emergency room visits, and encourage recipients to obtain employment or job training."

Supposedly wearing $47,000 in jewelry on work trips and spending $2 million in taxpayer money to get herself on magazine covers but telling state governors to make life harder for poor people.

Man, I probably got that shyt too

I work at a hospital and we’ve been having more nursing home patients than usual. They coming in with all the usual symptoms (SOB, Fever,Cough) and shyt is scaring me. We have protocol to follow before we try and ask the health department for testing kits and they’re still being stingy with em we’ve been more exposed too! N95 masks been running out. The way we receive suspected cases are not handled properly.I don’t really think we’d have the capability to treating more that 30+ patients on mechanical ventilation. Not enough negative pressure rooms etc i really hope this shyt don’t blow up brehs

Good luck, breh.

The people at my hospital don't seem to be worrying too much yet. Although they started taking a million extra precautions today.

It's unfortunate that in a situation like this we have to worry so much about supplies and test kits.

Place i work is totally fukked. Im totally fukked. fukk

where do you work

It depends how we handle it.if people are smart (which I have doubts about) and avoid public places as much as possible we can avoid at least becoming Italy

thing is the virus on its own even if old people get it they can survive IF you can limit the amount of people who get it at once so the elderly and and vulnerable can get the proper care becuase we don’t have many icu beds

the people who claim this virus isn’t a death sentence don’t get it. While they are right it’s not a death sentence if treated properly and if old people and sick people can get the proper care. If we are stupid about this and spread it too much at once they will not be able to get proper care

we really gotta do what south korea is doing. gotta test everybody and make an app that tracks infected. testing is the only way to beat this. if the numbers go up people will be scared shyt less and stay da fuk home.

and we have to send out text alert for new cases. to every damn cell phone in this country. messages to all. korea is doing it. why not us? let's use the damn technology and brain.



we can do it....

My company has made telework optional for all. The gov’t agencies my team works with all have mandatory telework.

That comment is so accurate: “Trump is running America into the ground like one of his trashy casinos”

Good to know. Glad me, my daughter and my lady live in the most humid state in America. Florida good for some things.
