Zwei Städte während der 1918er Grippeepedemie: Philadelphia erlaubt öffentliche Veranstaltungen, eine große Parade, Schulen bleiben offen; Maßnahmen von „social distancing“ unterbleiben. St. Louis macht das Gegenteil: das Ergebnis👇Wir müssen St. Louis sein! #FlattenTheCurve
The greater the reduction in transmission, the longer and flatter the epidemic curve (figure), with the risk of resurgence when interventions are lifted perhaps to mitigate economic impact. #COVID19
I think we're all going to learn the hard way that collectivist cultures (e.g. East Asian cultures) deal will existential threats with a lot more organisation & efficiency than individualist cultures.
@rocu_bene Keine böse Unterstellung beabsichtigt, aber Cave, weil Einzelmeinung:

@voteably@gomer2323 I would like to point out that our patient 1 is a 38yo athletic businessman. HEALTHY. Yet he's intubated since 29th Feb. Never seen such a thing with common flu
Please, please guys. Here in northern #Italy we made one big mistake. Everybody kept saying "It's just flu" and now our intensive care units are collapsing. Everybody kept going outside like nothing happened and now our grandparents and parents are dying.
#coronavirus is not #flu

Meanwhile, please be aware that this is a pandemy (despite it is not officially declared bu WHO)
France&Germany are at the point we were 6 days ago
Spain where we were 7 days ago
US where we were 10 days ago
With Isolation, washing hands & masks we’ll reduce the contagion.
@LWestafer@First10EM@EMSwami@srrezaie@TheSGEM I wasn’t too happy with the study.
Reasons:
- Sux 0.6 mg/kg as effective as 1 mg/kg (https://t.co/fNit0YoE7g). Cut my dose in half 2004, never went back.
- First-pass success highly correlated to experience. https://t.co/jp3I3AZ2sh Low first pass rates in study food for thought.

The bots are out in force today pushing the “media conspiracy to use COVID-19 to cause panic and crash the economy and hurt Trump” propaganda.
If you see anyone minimizing the threat, block and report them. They ARE a threat to everyone.
