Again, how many test you think Africa is conducting? But that’s an aside. It’s spread to 24 Africa an countries so it’s spreading despite temperature. It’s not seasonal.

Guess all the rest of those southern hemisphere and equatorial countries on that map aren't warm?

FWIW, it's only 77 degrees today in Tamanghasset, Algeria, which is right in the middle of the Sahara desert & only 87 degrees in the Congo today.
Just saying. Maybe 100 in the Summer will knock it out

This is not a flu virus. I can?t say that loud enough. The Dr on Rogan and numerous other Drs have said it?s not seasonal.
That seems to be the case. The northern hemisphere is in the spring season, the southern in the fall season, and the tropics are always in summer. The virus is affecting people everywhere, and it's concentrated where people are concentrated.

Flattening yhe curve and the hospital situation are the exact same thing. The curve cannot surpass our medical capabilities. Hell if no one was dying, it would be business as always. Snotty nose doesn't care if its allergies or some other non-life threatening thing.

Per Harvard, We better hope it is not "over" by the fall.
Or we will have 100,000's of thousands dead. We don't have the Hospital or ICU beds for 6 month peak if only 20% of the US population gets it. Which experts think is low.

I don't know how our economy is going to handle it. But something has to give.
Also, a vaccine is a year to 18 months away....

It will likely take at least a year for a Covid-19 vaccine to be approved and made available to patients;

That's a very vague number and hypothetical stat. See below.
"Even in a best-case scenario, with cases of coronavirus spread out over 18 months, American hospital beds would be about 95% full. (This assumes that hospitals don?t free up already occupied beds or add more beds, as some elected officials have called for.) Some regions would have the capacity to handle the surge in hospitalizations without adding new beds or displacing other patients."
https://projects.propublica.org/grap...vid-hospitals/
So the stats are based off no one recovering and opening a bed for a new patient to move in and also NO new beds being added to what we have currently.

Given his unique track record, he just made all that up. His guess is slightly less based on facts than many here. At least we read and can understand what we have just read.

Here's something scary. I watched something on the flu pandemic of 1918 that talked about how that flu strain mutated in the summer and came back worse in the fall.

If hunkered down means working from home and all my kids there, I think I'll survive. Damn sure beats traveling all over all the time and that two hours of driving to the office. How about people use the time to do things at home with family and enjoy it? Life doesn't slow down. You better take advantage when it does.

Drs have said the flu is somewhat unique in its ability to mutate. This isn't the flu.

As things are going so far looks like no football so no attendance.

I wonder if it's safe enough for teams to play at that point but not crowds if they just play to empty or limited stadiums?
