Also. Happy saint Patrick's day.
we're gonna see effects of that for the coming years. And Corona hasn't even hit Africa good yet<:why:462286147473637407>
Yeah, that will be wild
A whole continent with barely any health infrastructure and a whole lot of AIDS and Ebola already
population density is very high in some places, Covid-19 seems to not like tropical climates though
IDK about that
how's Inda doing with Corona? you'd expect things to go bad there, given its population density
India I think has few cases than Czech Republic now
hmm
Well. Might clean out a lot of their AIDS cases
India has 114 cases
Czechia has 300
For now.....
In Africa Senegal has the most with 26
*Sub-Saharan
In Latin America Brazil has the most with 200
bruh fucking French Polynesia has 3 cases
Iceland has 161
Also. Just confirmed. Remember, they dont have enough test kits.
I'm just glad that lockdown here ends on the 24th
which still kinda sucks, my parents are Boomers and shit

They're suspending HIPAA with respect to telemedicine
To remove roadblocks that make it more difficult I guess
And this in the country with the most critical care beds per capita
Yep.
So, Italy scenario then
Eventually.
I'm leaning towards that number I calculated before of roughly 0.1% of the population can get this without overwhelming the healthcare system.
I keep finding that our ICU beds are ~85% full at any given time and we won't be able to kick many people out of them for COVID-19 patients.
When you say "Italy scenario" it's good to remember 1/4 of Italians are over 60.....
Kinda early in the day for such numbers.
Not italy scenario. The 45 days number is really good because that gives plenty of time to move new equipment into place
Military temporary hospitals for example
Yeah, popup hospitals plus use of national stockpiles of ventilators could blunt this enough.
