it can never be EVERYBODY EVERYBODY - at these infection rates the disease would become endemic everywhere. I suppose if you lock down everyone for 2 weeks the asymptomatic virus would go away and the virus would not be endemic in China anymore (same for the cold or flu).

But this also requires China cutting itself off from the rest of the world forever, where we have apparently accepted the virus becoming endemic.

It's not that quarantine and social distancing don't work. The study is showing that the WHO's numbers (20% hospitalization and 3.4% death rate) were based on detection rates that were way too low and heavily biased toward bad cases. The study showed that as time went on China got much better at detecting cases. The problem is that when you include the old numbers the data is still garbage. China's numbers now as far as new cases are likely much better. Same with Korea (see also China data on places that had more recent infections like Beijing; death rate sub 1%). If case detection is poor then the fatality rate looks much higher and most places around the world have shitty data.

quarantining will not work with an endemic disease, it just flattens the curve and requires permanent quarantine. the no new cases with an endemic disease that is mostly asymptomatic is impossible.

China has 27,000 people die every single day. Year-to-date, that's roughly 2.1 million deaths so far this year.

You're a fucking retard if you think China isn't capable of covering up a few tens of thousands of surplus deaths in that figure

so real percentage is like:

~5% require hospitalization (not 20%)

~0.5% death rate?

what % of the 5% that require hospitalization require critical care?

the problem here is that because its infectious and we have no immunity most of the population will be infected if we dont do anything

so that 5% is impossible to deal with when its 5% of say 50M

with regular flu at any time maybe only a few million have it and only a very small percentage of that infected population require hospitalization

so it comes down 0.5% of 5M (regular flu) vs 5% of 50M that require hospitalization for say a 2 week period near the peak?

can we handle 2.5M hospitalizations and 250K ICU critical cases at a given time?

Absolutely, 100% not, especially considering they will not be evenly distributed across the country. It will be 50K ICU beds in NYC when they only have like 3,000, and 0 in Dubuque. See https://www.forbes.com/sites/arielshapiro/2020/03/17/cuomo-says-new-york-needs-as-many-as-37000-icu-beds-it-only-has-3000/#179f6b5f739f (NY state has less than 10% of the ICU beds it might need.) EDIT: OH, and 80% of them are already occupied.

GDP figures are 'man-made' and therefore unreliable, [then-executive vice premier] Li [Keqiang] said. When evaluating Liaoning's economy, he focuses on three figures:

I) electricity consumption, which was up 10 per cent in Liaoning last year;

2) volume of rail cargo, which is fairly accurate because fees are charged for each unit of weight; and

3) amount of loans disbursed, which also tends to be accurate given the interest fees charged.

By looking at these three figures, Li said he can measure with relative accuracy the speed of economic growth. All other figures, especially GDP statistics, are 'for reference only,' he said smiling.

we already knew that people under 60 are largely unaffected or only affected w/ minor illness, so it makes sense that lots of people would not show up as documented hospital cases.

the mortality of people over 60 being like 10x higher than flu mortality has been the alarming concern.

if it's rampaging thru the population undetected, but killing 10% of people >60, it's still going to be a huge bloodbath.

This assumes that detection of cases in olds has been accurate. While the "undetecteds" are probably more likely to be young I doubt the denominator with olds is accurate in the vast majority of places. I do think this is serious, especially for older people but there is a very good chance we are using shitty data biased towards the worst cases.

yeah, i keep coming back to the one obv undeniable 'data point', which is the raw body count. looking at North Italy : what happens when we scale North Italy's experience to the whole country, all of EU, all of US, etc.

they went from 0 to 5K dead in a few weeks, in a small area with a limited exposure. that's potentially a big pile of bodies if that experience is duplicated across the world.

but it's confusing, because Germany/South Korea are not having as many deaths, so who knows wtf is going on.

When we've gone back and tested old people whose deaths were attributed to various causes we've found flu and corona viruses and bacterial infections (and sometimes all three). We don't have clear data from Italy. How does this compare to prior influenza seasons? How many people normally die of respiratory and non-respiratory diseases there and how do these numbers compare to today? I'm not saying a corona virus can't ravage a nursing home, my point is that we are truly in the dark and that it's more likely the rate of hospitalization and death is much lower because it's impossible to capture the more minor cases.

but capturing minor cases in order to prove that the hospitalization/death *rate* is PERHAPS lower OVERALL -- if it is lower -- doesn't mean much. if the 'novel' coronavirus is spreading like wildfire undetected thru 100% of populations which have zero immunity to it, it will kill many more people than the flu in total numbers.

US flu deaths last year were 30,000. so 5K in one region of N. Italy in a month seems like a big deal.

or are you saying the people in N. Italy are dying of something other than coronavirus? they tested positive for coronavirus AFAIK.

How many Italians die of flu every day?

Does anyone still think this thing isn't everywhere already? And by everywhere I mean at least a seven figure for cases? We could hit herd immunity within the next 1-2 months.
