New York has maintained 3 days around 100 deaths without a dramatic jump, and signs that social distancing is working.
My biggest concern is really how the media keeps playing up NY as the "Epicenter" while seemingly not grasping how widespread the virus is. Only 35% of new cases today were out of NY and that percentage is dropping while the rest of America steadily is gaining. States like Georgia are already reporting ICUs being stressed even before the numbers start spiking.

21 Deaths in CT, the one death in my town was a well-known public figure and I had met him before. And it's been only two weeks of schools closed stay-at-home here. It's still the early days and the hospital here is already low on masks. We have a long road ahead.
When times are calm and some EU leader proposes closer political and other ties among the members that idea always gets rejected with "we want each country to be separate and unique" blabla. But when crisis comes along everyone wants more unity in EU. I mean... what do you expect from EU. It's not a single country. It's economic and trade union and that's it. Each country still has borders and their own healthcare systems. EU is already organizing EU-wide buying of medical supplies and what not. I don't even know what else are you realistically expecting EU to do in this case. All of EU and most of the world is suffering at the same time. Everyone needs supplies. Everyone is in panic. It's a shitty situation.
I'm only asking for "infinite" spending until the situation is fixed but apparently is impossible because we need fiscal consolidation. Italy has been forced to apply austerity policies since 2011 which is one of the reasons behind the shitshow in the hospitals right now.
Moreover in this very moment everything is closed in Italy and firms have not been able to produce any cash flow since 2 weeks. How they are gonna pay the employees? The government will pay 1 month of temporary lay-off for the next month but what about the current one? Instead of sustain the economy in every possible way with a direct influx of cash these fraud are wasting weeks and weeks duscussing about useless crap like the ESM. Unbelievable.

I have something.
Some coughing and shortness of breath but no fever last night.
Today a fever out of nowhere and chills, aches, pains, loss of appetite. But no coughing.
Fella I work with was tested today and they're waiting on that to come back. If he has it, they're going to assume I have it.
If he doesn't have it, they're not ruling out that I have it.
America!

The only thing that clown will accomplish next week is another set of foolish speeches (today he said that Brazilians can swim in the sewers and and get no decease so...). No state government will hear it. But I fear after Easter it could be a different scenario (either the epidemic gets worse or the lockdown will be lifted ).
China didn't count the asymptomatic infection (they do track and managed them as infected internally) which last reported at around ~45000. Depends on how US count the cases and how they conduct testing China may still have more.
But they vote for Trump before, this virus will not make them smarter.
Every tweet about a celebrity during this has comments from Q nutjobs about how the celebrity stopped taking their adrenochrome.
Too much cringe for me.
Least someone else is suffering with me.
I didn't realize how rough soap was on the hands until now.
Same. One guy said 5G was causing something to the oxygen and that was the cause of the virus. He also probably felt very smart when he said that. I didn't even know where to start... The stupidity of the average Joe is astounding.
I think some people just need to believe someone is out to get them and holding them down for "reasons". This virus is simultaneously an attack by the Chinese, a coverup for 5G, a way for the government/police to get dictatorship powers and curb freedoms, and a way for Bill Gates to sell you a vaccine that will track you.
I had to Google what the 5g conspiracy theory was. There's stupid... And then there's this. Who is this idiot you talked to
How long had this been spreading in the US?
We were there around Valentine's day. Kind of freaky

In some parts it was already here by then but more towards end of February is my guess for most parts of country

I got a dumb little post card in the mail from Trump that said wash my hands. How much did that cost.
I knew she was a fraud as soon as she started peddling shit around the testing rates and trying to compare them to South Korea early on. It's initially harder to tell because trump is so obvious that he's a fucking moron that when someone actually starts talking intelligently it sounds true
She's also saying NY has all it needs in terms of beds and ventilators. I am confused what would be the end game. Maybe that's the point. The lying will be exposed and they will just make up a new one.

What is the impact of the coronavirus outbreak on air quality in India?

I think it's fair to say if your hands are bleeding from washing them I think you are doing it to much.
Fun fact: Puerto Rico has currently arrested more people for breaking curfew than there are confirmed cases.
I also just learned that the governor there announced a new measure to limit the number of people going to supermarkets at a time: people with cars whose license plates end in an even number get to go out certain dates of the week, those with odd numbers get to go on the rest.

The US is 5% of the world's population but 25% of new cases? And only half of us are making any effort? That's called efficiency, baby.
It's sad that a near-shutdown of everything can't even drag the level back to "healthy."Grey smog lifts in India as coronavirus drives cars off the roads

I'm just tired that absolutely everything needs a convoluted reason to be. It just sometimes do be that way :/ The world doesn't need to connect the dots with everything government this and that.
I didn't, SO stepped out to the store and wears a mask, so I guess a worker made the 5G comment and said how it's all dumb.
Not necessarily. Depends on climate, what type of skin you have, and if you are being forced to work somewhere that you are constantly being exposed to potential infected.
Video: ‘People Are Dying’: 72 Hours Inside a N.Y.C. Hospital Battling Coronavirus
An emergency room doctor in Elmhurst, Queens, gives a rare look inside a hospital at the center of the coronavirus pandemic. “We don’t have the tools that we need.”
hollyfucking shit...this video was terrifying. Deserves its own thread?
Trump has no clue on how long people actually have to be on ventilators. It can take WEEKS to bring someone back from the brink.
Congress needs to pass the bill compelling the use of the DPA.

Trump will legit try to downplay the deaths/ alter numbers when this is all said and done, if it will
what a shit bag
what a shit bag
This is what being nice to Trump gets you -- a stab in the back. Every. Single. Time.
Take note, Cuomo.
Lovely.
Some old lady was shopping yesterday at my wife's work. She was having trouble with her coupons and told the cashier to watch out because she was Covid positive. Then tried to come back saying she had more coupons.
The cashier said they tried to wipe everything down. But who knows what she touched.
What. Is. Wrong. With. People.
