Kolek planning to go pro
There was no chicken in my supermarket this morning and I heard it was the same elsewhere. Is there a run on chicken with the toilet paper and Purell or is there some other reason?
Not 1/50,000 low in the highest affected countries, and I think we're on our way to being one of those highest affected. Symptoms apparently often don't present for 7-14 days after being infected.
The Daily Mail isn't exactly the Lancet...
Interesting .. family friends are doctors in Madison, very brainy folks. He was .. nonchalant about the future workload in the hospital. He was concerned about the high density areas (Milwaukee, and yeah, Madison) but was optimistic. The remainder of the state is low density and he thought the hospitals could handle it. Was a very different view than the usual doom.
That’s not how the rest of the state feels.
The state or the state's medical professionals?
The latter. They’re worried.
Cleveland State's Women's Basketball Coach Chris Kielsmeier tested positive:https://www.wkyc.com/article/sports/ncaa/ncaab/vikings-bb/cleveland-state-womens-basketball-coach-chris-kielsmeier-tests-positive-for-coronavirus/95-02cf029b-fba7-4bcf-b3f8-7ba590746754That's the first college coach I've heard announced as testing positive (not necessarily the first of course - just the first I've heard)
timeline still does not make sense to me seems like we should be right with Italy. Also been reading that some think the virus has been around here for longer than we think as lots of pneumonia since the new year that was worse than normal. Who knows we will see by the end of this month i guess.The panic and empty grocery shelves is off the charts at this point though
Some of the empty shelves is logical. Sticking up cause you might be sick isn’t the worst thing. But the TP thing is fancinating.

Let us all remember, that just because you have a plaque on the wall, doesn't mean you stay current with everything. Not all medical professionals are created equal.Source: earlier in this thread.
The idea that anyone with a different opinion must be uninformed doesn't make sense to me. It's not at all uncommon for two people to read the same information but draw different conclusions. Some medical professionals may be focusing on Italy and assuming that will be the case here in the US. Others may be reading about India or even areas in China outside Hubei and feeling reassured. The experts we keep reading about seem to lean very heavily toward warning against worst case scenarios. And I fully understand the reasons why. But that doesn't mean we should expect that. And it doesn't mean that people are uninformed for looking at current data and recent actions and coming to a conclusion that isn't doom and gloom.
