Surgeon General tells people not to buy masks.
Uhh hello? The richest most "ready" country in the world doesn't have
a 6 month supply of masks in storage ready for such an event? What the
heck?

Maybe they can send it to us. Today for the first time I heard the
term “surge capacity” applied to hospital beds. Person was saying US
healthcare industry has made hospitals efficient same way as airlines,
aim for zero empty beds, with the result that there’s not much surge
capacity. Let’s hope somebody’s looking at ways to open up more
facilities in areas where outbreaks happen. The Chinese weren’t stupid
with their modular approach to quickly creating a field hospital.
Reminds me of MASH. Time for a bug out!
I did a quick Google search for “hospital surge capacity” and the first
page of results were mostly studies after Katrina. A hurricane is worse
because it closes down hospitals and pharmacies, eliminating capacity.
With the coronavirus what I suspect we need to guard against is
infecting all the hospital staff and first responders so they get
quarantined. This appears to be happening with that nursing home in
Kirkland, Washington. 25 firefighters are now quarantined as a
precaution because they had been to that facility.

You need the disaster to occur to justify all your
preparation. Some part of you is rooting for it.
Just a hypothesis.

OK, maybe this is hysterical reporting (it’s from
Washington Post after all), but sounds kind of
science-y.
The novel coronavirus has probably been spreading
undetected for about six weeks in Washington
state, where the first U.S. death was reported
this weekend. A genetic analysis suggests that the
cases are linked through community transmission
and that this has been going on for weeks, with
hundreds of infections likely in the state.

Must be a Florida thing, or a Walmart thing. I
have not seen news reports anything close to “we
are all going to die”.
And I just stopped at the grocery store, no signs
at all of people buying up all the Lysol and
Purell. I did buy a couple of the pump bottles of
foaming hand soap we like, but the shelf was
full. News reports have said wash your hands and
that it’s good advice for seasonal flu as well, I
don’t think that’s doomsday advice.
I have not checked Walmart, maybe things are all
crazy there (as usual). Actually I have to admit
that I recently discovered the steaks from Walmart
are actually pretty good, they were branded Tyson
Fresh Meats.

There are only a few things we know for sure.
1. It is already in the US
2. More people in the US will get it
3. More people in the US will die.
Anything other than this is pure speculation at
this point. We don't know anything about this
virus. Most everything I hear or read about this
virus starts off with the equivalent of "WE ARE
ALL GOING TO DIE". But if you bother to listen or
read the article, it always has "may" or "some
experts". The current official incubation period
is 2-14 days, but hey lets just report 14 days and
base all our models on this and report it as the
most likely scenario. We don't know how long it
lives on surfaces. We don't know how it reacts to
UV light. We don't know how it will do in
warm/humid conditions.
My opinion (just as valid as anyone else's), This
virus has been in the states before the first
reported case. People have had it and recovered
thinking it was just the flu. Not everyone exposed
is going to get it. Not everyone who gets it is
going to need to be hospitalized. Not everyone
who gets hospitalized will die.
The media once again is doing us a huge
dis-service. They are hyping this thing way out
of proportion. Was at Wal-mart yesterday. Every
can of Lysol or Lysol type of product was gone.
Every package of disinfectant wipes were gone. Every bottle of any
sized hand sanitizer, gone. Crazy. The closest reported "maybe" case is
over
1300 miles away. God forbid we get a reported
case in Florida, what will happen then? Going to
start burning and looting?

Obviously this is the resurgence of the Nazi party
trying to eliminate a majority of the population
so they can initiate another run at global
domination. My neighbors mom, Karen told me that
her friend, carols husband Brad told her that he
heard that this is what brexit was all about.
Germany and Great Britian are forming an alliance
