So is SpotStickers about to become a blackmarket hospital supply store? What’s 8oz of Purel gonna cost me?
LOL. No. I have so many orders right now, I dont have time to leave the shop and go anywhere. If the guy working with me doesnt give it to me, I should be OK. Best spring we have had (business wise) ever. I cant explain the amount of growth we have had in the last 5 years but it is incredible. Insane actually. Thank you economy.
I am legitimately concerned that we are getting too big. Everything has worked so smoothly, It is scaring me.
The guy working for me is a retired (recently from Buford) high school football coach. 30 years coaching. We are on it from 7-7 everyday and even later for me at times. Things should calm down some once April gets here but for now, it is all hands on deck..

Patient I'm following's preliminary panel results came back negative for everything, so now they get the COVID 19 test. 24-48 hours on that I think.

I dont buy into this being any worse than the flu so its pretty aggravating.
Science (available to us today) is pretty clear. It may change, etc...but it's obviously worse than the Flu.
There is a difference between symptoms being similar and our pre viral measures being the same. Flu is way ahead of this in pre viral measures which doesn't protect every person, but it does protect the health system and its ability to function through viral spreading.

My kid is mad that sophomore spring at Auburn is essentially over. We're trying to schedule a time to get stuff out of the dorm. I'd like some $ back for the meal plan and dorm $!
I do think this is more panic than needed, but if you're making decisions for people's well-being, every other institution has made a conservative call, you have no choice but to follow or you'll be burned at the stake if someone gets it.
We might go to an "on-call" type of work schedule here, but we can't fly from home. So instead of waiting for production at work, we'll wait at home. Since my college-age student, HS-age student, MS age-student, & my teacher wife (no pics) will probably all be home, I'll wish I could come to work.
Good luck/thoughts & prayers to Mrs Jones, Mrs LanierSpots and FearlessFreep.
I guess since no sports, I could finally cut the cord. I'm sad.

So am I doing this right?
Using John Hopkins figures (from here) current figures at this moment.
There's - Total Confirmed 137,385 cases of COV19 with Total Deaths 5,088 and Recovered 69,779 cases.
So using this figures I crunched 5088 / 137,385 * 100
to get 3.70346107654 percent mortality.
However only 69,779 have recovered so that leaves (137385-69,779) = 67,606 in a still be determined fate or condition
so extrapolating the above still to be deteremined 67,606 @ 3.70346107654 percent yielded another 2503.76 possible fatalities
So now I recalculated total possible (5088 + 2503) fatalities = 7,591; which was when re-crunched against the total cases (which yielded a):
7591 / 137385 * 100 = 5.52534847327 percent mortality rate
SO MY QUESTION:
1) Amirte?
2) Or is the original percentage skewed wrong and I'm re-tallying the to be determined twice?
3) Or would total deaths crunched by total (recovered + deaths) be more correct (which is an incredibly high percent)?

No you are not right. You fail to calculate the infected that do not get tested, dont go to the hospital or require any medical attention.
You also fail to acknowledge the level of healthcare provided in those countries nor the underlying ailments of those who died.
This is another strand of the flu. Nothing more. People need to stop freaking the frick out

You might do well to take two of these and go to bed.

I go back to the doctor tomorrow by the way. If my wbc isn’t down from 18,700 after 48 hours of doxycycline and another medicine then your resident expert of “frick the Coronavirus” probably has the virus.
My wife was a respiratory therapist for nearly a decade and it doesn’t make sense to her that a simple “upper respiratory infection” would cause my blood cells to be so high.
Another bombshell is all Alabama K-12 schools will be closed until April 6th. Any babysitters on this thread?

Eh
My aunt had hip surgery in Pescia, IT and spent a month in recovery in Italy. It’s not a bad hospital system but I’d take ours every single day of the week.

When's the last time entire countries shut down for "another strand of the flu?"
What's so stupid about this situation is that morons will claim we overreacted if our mitigation steps work.
