That was not said, and as morbid as it sounds, deaths will reduce the number in ICU.

An HIQA report today said the median time was 7 days in ICU

Yeah, deaths will adjust things. Either way they seem to be waiting but calm about the ICU situation.

For ****s sake, Business Insider a German version of the Mail, Axel Springer AG site.

Headline...
Italy said it was useless and accused them of a PR stunt.

content
...
The footage of the convoy was widely shared on social media, but Italian officials speaking anonymously to La Stampa said as much as 80% of the delivered material was useless, and that the operation appears to be a public-relations stunt with little practical benefit to the country's healthcare system.
...

La Stampa a headline today is about NATO COVID-19 supplies on April 1st., reading down the supplies are from Turkey!

There are forums dedicated to geopolitical propaganda.

As well as deaths, some cases will have recovered and been sent home.

So why do they say there’s 126 in icu when the cumulative number is 126 not the real time number.
It’s real time number that matters when your looking at resources available surely?

I literally can’t read anymore about this f*cked up virus. Everyday it’s something worse.

Not really. From the rest of the article (his elderly wife also had the virus, but with mild symptoms).

"The researchers said that this information could point towards a new mild sub-type of COVID-19 which while not as transmissible could be harder to eliminate."

Interestingly there was also a mutation in Singapore earlier in the outbreak that researchers suspected made it milder, but easier to spread. Because humans are removing the most critically ill from circulation (and into hospitals), and not really finding asymptomatic cases, we're actually encouraging a milder and less obvious form of the disease to emerge - fingers crossed.

Dear Covid-19, For the love of God, just fcuk right off.

My take on this is that there are probably still roughly 126 maybe 110 or so in ICU at this very point. They have said now for sure this is the figure from the beginning. Remember the beginning is not at all long ago, so by the time people got to the point of needing ICU was probably over the past 2 weeks. So MOST of the cases are still in ICU as its only 10-14 days. I also take from it that many of those in Nursing homes who have died were NOT admitted to ICU, otherwise those numbers would be gone down by now.

Regardless of what the ICU numbers actually represent, that trend (blue line) is closely following the least worst case prediction (green) from a few days ago.

tom1ie · 01-04-2020 05:10PM

I may have missed this but why do we get the cumulative icu bed figures and not the real time figures?

Let's ease off on the messenger shooting thank you.

Someone asked for a source, I got them one and now WE ALL KNOW it's probably not a good source.

I got the tablets (I think I still have them somewhere, 4 or 5 of them in a cut-up blister with the seal half damaged), I never got my tree (who can I ring about that?), but I did get my Millennium Candle. Did you get that, at least?

No, i never got that either, i was living in a house that was split in to apartments and flats at that time so another tenant must have got it lol
All joking aside, and to keep with the topic of the thread, i would have thought the leaflets would have gone nationwide around the same time?

Number of cases in ICU in the Lombardy region of Italy has actually declined.

They can't see the irony of thinking Trump/BoJo are horrible people, yet they are wishing for large death totals in these countries so they can be somehow proven correct in their assertions... quite perverse really! :rolleyes:

This is exactly why.

If the death toll is high expect some will relish in saying I told you so

Interestingly my German work colleague was waiting a week to be tested and a few days after that for results.

smelly sock · 01-04-2020 05:13PM

212 is a good drop to be honest. 14 dead is a worry again though.

Hopefully we can steadily decline for next 9 days and lockdown will be relaxed.

It's a federal democracy. Some aspects of life are reliant on state government and others are reliant on federal government, which has very significant resources. All Americans are governed by both.

What state governments do matters, but what the US federal government also matters enormously.

It's not an accurate reflection of the reality of US governance to look at state and federal government in isolation. In a crisis like this both matter and the really big spending power comes from the federal government, not state level.

Federal agencies would normally be driving coordination of this and they really haven't been under Trump. It's been a lot more chaotic than normal with federal and state agencies competing for the same resources and driving prices up and so on.

I've been absolutely terrified with all the news. Can't fully enjoy what I used to like doing. Though maybe I should, by the time I catch it, will it be my last few days?

Some deaths may be upto 36 hours in arrears, particularly any that are coming from the coroner. Hospital deaths are reported quicker.
