Can't find the article right now but, a rsearcher at Harvard says that 40% to 70% of the world's population could get it! What's the world's inventory of body bags?

And yet, our own acting deputy secretary of Homeland Security, Ken Cuccinelli, became frustrated when he couldn't access the Johns Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering department's map showing the latest COVID-19 numbers and locations.
There is literally an ENTIRE FEDERAL AGENCY working for you that you could ask to provide you and all Americans with the latest information on the Coronavirus! Maybe we should cut the funding for the CDC... FFS... https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost...rus-map-103720062.html ------------------------- GOP: Gaslight Obstruct Project |

Whoops
The head of an Iranian government task force on the coronavirus who had urged the public not to overreact about its spread has tested positive for the illness himself, authorities said Tuesday, as new cases emanating from the country rapidly emerged across the Middle East. ------------------------- If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate. |

Hmmmm, , , , here in the USA and in most Euro countries and such, the health systems are in pretty good shape to deal with it. BUT, elsewhere in the BuFu world the current (rough) 2.7% death rate will probably expand and put a real hurt on certain places.
To have a little math fun:, , , , The world's population is 7,800,000,000. 40% of that is 3,120,000,000. 2.7% of 3,120,000,000 is, , , , , 84,240,000. !!!! ------------------------- Dora Hates You Edited: 02/25/2020 at 02:55 PM by dingpatch |

EDIT: Ooops! This is what happens when you sit up late doing taxes and then post. Considering that misteake (sic) was numeric, I guess I'd better go check the taxes too. Oh, and form 8889 instruction is finally available. Line 3 goes up $50, woot?
Back to COVID19. The annual human death rate worldwide is about 1%, another 2%? Not nice certainly, but not exactly apocalyptic either. Compare to the annual birth rate which is about 2%.

If this doesn't start the recession (the, not a...a correction has been coming) nothing will.
Also, human beings need a science trust level correction and this might do it. Tired of anti-vax BS. |

Fatality rates
No deaths occurred in those aged 9 years and younger, but cases in those aged 70 to 79 years had an 8% fatality rate and those aged 80 years and older had a fatality rate of 14.8%. No deaths were reported among mild and severe cases. The fatality rate was 49% among critical cases, and elevated among those with preexisting conditions: 10.5% for people with cardiovascular disease, 7.3% for diabetes, 6.3% for chronic respiratory disease, 6% for hypertension, and 5.6% for cancer. ------------------------- GOP: Gaslight Obstruct Project |

the age factor and mortality difference. basically non existent in children under 9. some are suspecting this is due to mitochondrial function. children in major growth cycles have highly functional mitochondria. as we age and get older function decreases over time, how much dependent on your health, lifestyle, and genetics. potential supplemental protection/therapy could perhaps be something to increase function
