Just read where hospital personnel are making masks from supplies bought at hobby shops.
Is this for real?
One major medical supplier for both the private sector and the military on the East Coast advising that they cannot accept new orders for PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) as they have none. One large hospital system near me advised staff they only have a 3 weeks supply of masks. What a mess.
You missed the anecdote. So someone presents with pneumonia -- they aren't testing. They die -- their death is put down to 'heart', 'pneumonia'. I suspect until recently we have not done autopsies on every person who has died of pneumonia in the last 8 weeks.....our numbers could be worse we don't know.
Eh, not really. That's a huge stretch, and I think you know that deep down.
There will always be some one off cases like you mentioned, but as a general rule (not the exception) if you're in the hospital sick and critical, you're being tested for the coronavirus, as hospital staff doesn't want to risk contracting the disease and aren't taking any chances. Thus, the death toll from this thing is pretty accurate, I wager, again with the occasional one off case.
Well this is heartbreaking. 42 year old mom of 6 beats stage 4 breast cancer just to be taken out by this. Just a few hours from us and my 40 year old wife also just beat cancer. We aren't stepping foot outside. https://katu.com/news/coronavirus/br...ovid-19-victim
I wish my mother wouldn't go out (she is a breast c-word survivor from just this year.) but I highly doubt deliveries can get to us. I tried getting a Lyft from a auto mechanic chain and they wouldn't pick me up. Took me two hours and no Lyfts... I highly doubt any delivery service would do it or if they did, the price is advantageous.
Not only that. There is a diminished lung capacity of 20-30% once you recover.
That's been worst case for some cases of recoveries. This has not been the reported case for most, and I wager we'd be hearing much more about this nonstop if it was the case for most.
Ivanka posted a nearly 3 year old picture of herself and kids sitting in a makeshift tent in their residence, encouraging families to bond, blah, blah, blah. Twitter responses have not been kind.
Why would she think anyone cares about anything she has to say, especially at a time like this?

That's true. Not everyone will be affected that way, but some will.
Dr Fauci said he predicted the rate to settle around 1%, looks line its trending that way.
