Re: Corona Virus (COVID-19)( SARS-CoV-2) from China: Its going to be bad.

:) That "morality" rate should actually be the Mortality rate defined as Deaths/Population
Not certain what forumula would used for a Morality rate. Sinners per square mile?

US suddenly has more cases than any other country.

I half way trust our numbers.
The increased infected count does wonders to lower the fatality percentages. Although gaming the counts would be unheard of. :roll:

How are we to know if we have been close to someone we know that turned up exposed? How does government know that they haven’t been close enough to infect someone at a store.
Although I know someone that has passed, I wouldn’t have known it had I not seen the name of his retirement center on the news. In fact it was 4 days before media actually said where he lived and another day before we found out his name. How do they know I hadn’t visited him ( I haven’t)?

UPDATED: SFCHC investigating COVID-19 exposure at Bonne Terre wedding
The St. Francois County Health Center is investigating a possible COVID-19 exposure at a large gathering in Bonne Terre on Saturday, according to a release from Director Amber Elliott.

Two attendees who reside outside the state of Missouri have tested positive for COVID-19, the release said. They were symptomatic while attending the event.

The health center is working with the event organizer to identify and contact all of those who attended the event. There were about 200 people who attended the event, including from St. Francois County and other jurisdictions.

The health center confirmed Friday night that the event was a wedding. All attendees of the event will be quarantined through March 28, the release said.

They don't show hot spots in a continent so they aren't representative of where cases are accumulating. Even the relative sizes of the dots doesn't show much beyond overall comparative numbers for a country compared to the total population. I've stopped referring to the Johns Hopkins map as much when they stopped breaking down the US by county and instead went to state.
+1 :iagree:

This https://www.healthmap.org/covid-19/ has more detail and shows locations. At least, for now.

Waco has closed restaurants and bars. Five area residents are listed as having Covid-19. One of the five was reported as infected outside of the county.

My out-of-state brother relayed that a local Wally World clerk told him people were trying to return TP so they could afford to pay their rent. So I may have a line on blackmarket TP.. :biggrinjester:

Excellent question. It looks like the first case reported in the US was the Chicago case reported here, and referenced on WHO sitreps, on 24 Jan. I find no reports of "recovered" though. Evidently Corona lasts a while.
