Per Cuomo 80% of the people who were intubated died. That means we have a really expensive supportive technology that mostly fails for this virus.

Matterhorn :cool:

I think it's possible that we don't agree much. You say "rabbit" and I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but we get by with various nods and so forth ...
April 17, 2020 at 00:16
Why not? That's a little different from asserting that we do agree on most things.
April 16, 2020 at 23:23
Charity says interpret to maximize agreement. That wouldn't explain why you think we mostly agree on everything. I don't know. Isn't it possible that ...
April 16, 2020 at 22:09
Why do you believe that?
April 16, 2020 at 21:59
That was way too vague to be an accusation of anti-Republican bias favoring blowing the economy up prior to a presidential election. But that would pr...

He helped establish the Athenian democracy. He was obviously a religious person.

You aren't objecting to the way NY arrived at its decisions are you? Just smaller communities where the lockdown is presently causing hardship?

I meant that if no one cleans the station then one person could potentially infect a bunch of people. So you're helping people stay healthy.
April 16, 2020 at 13:44
An overlooked super spreader. Cool. Anecdotally, I look at respiratory viral panels all the time and it's rare to see more than one virus at a time. I...
April 16, 2020 at 10:43
That's a lot! And it's awesome. Some might find they have a capacity to help local pet fostering organizations. In some places food banks are running ...
April 16, 2020 at 09:54
Here's an idea: stop whining and do something to help someone. Some person who lives near you. It doesnt have to be dramatic like the guy who delivere...

Are you saying that ostriches don't make giant eggs?
April 14, 2020 at 20:01
Feeding 12 chickens one bucket of food per day will give you a dozen small eggs. Feeding the same amount to an ostrich will give you one giant egg.

The Athenian law against blasphemy originated with Solon.

Its a pandemic not a drone bombing. :lol:

Is Hanover drunk?
April 14, 2020 at 16:01
:up: I hadn't read any articles on it until just now. I was just looking at the raw data.
April 14, 2020 at 15:56
I'd need access to a keyboard to talk about it more. It would be genetics in combination with other factors, not genetics alone.
April 14, 2020 at 15:29
I don't have a link. Are you actually interested in how genetics affects the robustness of pulmonary tissue?
April 14, 2020 at 15:08
True. I'd be happy to explain how genetics could be a factor. Oh wait, no I wouldn't. :joke:
April 14, 2020 at 15:04
Yes, but both countries seem to have lower serious-critical numbers with a high death total. That suggests that instead of lingering toward recovery, ...
April 14, 2020 at 14:56
Both France and the UK have oddly high mortality rates, but the UK's is substantially worse. I look forward to some downstream analysis of how each co...
April 14, 2020 at 14:25
Yep. Sorry about the nursing home deaths.
April 13, 2020 at 20:39
Their data probably just needs to be updated. As it is, it doesn't make much sense. Too many deaths.
April 13, 2020 at 20:17
That's odd. If they aren't reporting nursing facility COVID-19 deaths, then why is the UK's death total so high? There was this. Did the UK just decid...
April 13, 2020 at 19:51
I was talking to this 86 year old woman, she said that nothing like this has ever happened in her lifetime. So it's all new. First time through any pr...

There's a crowd of drug addicts waiting for you. I think you'll be great. They say that when Kierkegaard died his smile lit up the whole room. :cool:
April 13, 2020 at 14:25
I'm kind of used to it. I think you'd be a good one to work with. Going to RN school?
April 13, 2020 at 14:15
Yes.
April 13, 2020 at 14:13
Maybe he'll explain what he meant later on.
April 13, 2020 at 13:50
Oh Dubbaya! He was genius compared to Trump.
April 13, 2020 at 13:23
I'm not a Republican. As usual, you're one of the few sane voices.
April 13, 2020 at 12:55
It's not exactly Mad Max, but we are getting more young ones than I expected. The bad ones go into a condition called DIC. I dont remember what that s...
April 13, 2020 at 12:31
I was asking why the 1%ers failed to keep the economy up and running. We're accusing them of putting money ahead of lives. So why did they allow the e...
April 13, 2020 at 11:53
Cool.
April 13, 2020 at 11:43
Thanks. So there's foreknowledge of the threat of pandemic. What we're saying is that 1%ers knew this, knew that COVID-19 was this very organism, and ...
April 13, 2020 at 11:42
No disrespect intended, man, but I really never try to engage you in any kind of serious discussion. Insult me for saying that... fine, it's just true...

April 13, 2020 at 11:06
Yes, the US system is clearly for sale. The early bungling of the US in regard to COVID-19, especially the testing problem, is still under investigati...
April 13, 2020 at 10:32
And Europe has the same situation?
April 13, 2020 at 09:57
Ok. Will do.
April 13, 2020 at 06:31
It wasn't for you
April 13, 2020 at 05:49
I know, I was just testing you.
April 13, 2020 at 04:35
In this case, not many people in Rome (NYC) drive cars. A coworker has family there who report that people are still crowding onto the subway because ...
April 13, 2020 at 04:34
Yep.

If you're American, I can tell you why you think that. If you're not, then I have no idea. Strictly speaking, democracy is just a mode of social organ...
