Re: Trump approval rating

Thing remains, this was KNOWN as patient 0 hit our shores. We had a little bit of time, yet they did nothing with it . We could have been Germany, experiencing few deaths, but now we're on Italy's trajectory.

Why still, to this day, we don’t have the tests available to mass-test everyone that's willing? We KNOW this disease can be transmitted before a patient experiences symptoms. We KNOW that some people do not ever experience symptoms, yet shed virus for weeks. We KNOW how transmissible this is.

Tests may be getting even scarcer. NYC Health & Hospitals now limits tests only to those admitted to a hospital. If you have symptoms they now tell you to go home and come back in 7 days.

They want to make sure the hospitals don't become hot spots.

With 8 strains at last count, there are two strains in America. The Italian Strain, and the Chinese Strain.


We're still unsure if it was here in Janurary/February though.

Unless we're going to permanently increase our hospital capacity and our morgue facilities so that we can properly dispose of 2% of the population and have about 12% (or 5 or 19) of the population in the hospital for the yearly SARS2 wave, whats the point of the percentage exactly?

In my home county in NJ, pop. 330,000, as of April 1, we have 475 confirmed cases and 8 dead (1.7%). Statewide death rate is 1.6%.

If there is an overall death rate of 1%, I suspect we have 800 or another 325 people walking around who have it, don't know it, and may never know it. That would be 1 per 412 persons.
