mr vegas Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 you're obviously an expert in pandemic response (and also everything else). so, globally, what country would you say has had the best response so far? no country is more prepared for the virus than the usa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeman Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 We can expect that we’ll continue to see a doubling of cases every 6 days (this is a typical doubling time across several epidemiological studies). Here I mean *actual* cases. Confirmed cases may appear to rise faster in the short term due to new test kit rollouts. We’re looking at about 1M US cases by the end of April, 2M by ~May 5, 4M by ~May 11, and so on. Exponentials are hard to grasp, but this is how they go. As the healthcare system begins to saturate under this case load, it will become increasingly hard to detect, track, and contain new transmission chains. In absence of extreme interventions, this likely won’t slow significantly until hitting >>1% of susceptible population. What does a case load of this size mean for healthcare system? We’ll examine just two factors — hospital beds and masks — among many, many other things that will be impacted. The US has about 2.8 hospital beds per 1000 people. With a population of 330M, this is ~1M beds. At any given time, 65% of those beds are already occupied. That leaves about 330k beds available nationwide (perhaps a bit fewer this time of year with regular flu season, etc). Let’s trust Italy’s numbers and assume that about 10% of cases are serious enough to require hospitalization. (Keep in mind that for many patients, hospitalization lasts for *weeks* — in other words, turnover will be *very* slow as beds fill with COVID19 patients). By this estimate, by about May 8th, all open hospital beds in the US will be filled. (This says nothing, of course, about whether these beds are suitable for isolation of patients with a highly infectious virus.) If we’re wrong by a factor of two regarding the fraction of severe cases, that only changes the timeline of bed saturation by 6 days in either direction. If 20% of cases require hospitalization, we run out of beds by ~May 2nd. If only 5% of cases require it, we can make it until ~May 14th. 2.5% gets us to May 20th. This, of course, assumes that there is no uptick in demand for beds from *other* (non-COVID19) causes, which seems like a dubious assumption. As healthcare system becomes increasingly burdened, Rx shortages, etc, people w/ chronic conditions that are normally well-managed may find themselves slipping into severe states of medical distress requiring intensive care & hospitalization. But let’s ignore that for now. Alright, so that’s beds. Now masks. Feds say we have a national stockpile of 12M N95 masks and 30M surgical masks (which are not ideal, but better than nothing).

mikeman Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 I have taken no real precautions, my strategy is not to die when i get it.

housepicks Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 I’m seriously tempted to buy a 55 gallon drum of sanitizer I found. For $1400.I bought about $600-$700 worth and paid 50 cents an ounce. I’ll sell it for at least double. It’s not gonna make me rich but why not. I don’t want I resell it online and pay shipping and selling fees so I really am going to set up shop at a flea market in the ghetto. I like buying things online and I like hanging out in the ghetto. It’s like a field trip to the zoo. You see the craziest shit. I estimate I have about a 5% chance that I get beaten and they take my sani.No problem, the thrill feels good.
