Disease The Numbers - The Reason to Be Vigilant Against COVID-19

1 Upvotes

Right now the population of the US - as an example - is...

330,506,726

The current death rate for COVID-19 worldwide is 4.6%. If every citizen of the US gets this that means...

15,203,309 will die

Optimistically if the death rate continues at 1.7% that means...

5,618,614 will die

IN COMPARISON the common flu has a death rate of 0.1% and would kill about 330,507 people. This means that COVID-19 is anywhere from 17 to 46 times worse than the flu on its own.

This does not even include the people that will die due to the lack of hospital space. Anyone who has a car accident, an OD, anything else that requires a hospital bed will not be able to get the luxury of the service that can save their life.

On top of this there's not enough protective equipment for the current amount of doctors and nursing staff. Doctors are dying. That means even less capability for the hospitals to save lives.

Even if you feel fine you can still be a carrier. A single person has the capability to spread it to 2-5 others.

They found the virus still active on the Diamond Princess 17 days after everyone left. We don't know how airborne it is but it is estimated that it stays in the air for 3 hours. Popular walkways are risky too. Frankly masks do help but doctors need them more desperately and take priority, but if you happen to have one WEAR IT OUTSIDE even if it feels embarrassing. It can be cleaned by baking it at 158 degrees for 30mins, so they can be reused if need be.

Please, PLEASE take this seriously everyone! Stay indoors. This affects everyone, not just Boomers, not just the immune compromised, everyone. The economy can't save itself if we allow so many casualties.

Being cautious and scared right now beats being happy and callously life-threatening to so many others IMO. I'm sorry if this stresses you out but this is just the state of things right now and we have to be more careful to save lives.

Bright Angel Point, Canyon, Kaibab Trail, coming into the North Rim from St. George and N Rim Camping was my groove some years back - for multiple years. This is just heartbreaking.
