even with the uptick the us death rate overall is still very low ~0.04%, where majority the cases are the old people. Inline with what has been estimated by most research publication.

Yes, recommendation is preferable than mandatory enforcement.

I'm responding to the hospital being overwhelmed, not specifically about the tent. My point is at the current situation the hospital is no more overwhelmed then what has happened in the past. >And we don't know what Covid-19 br

Um yes, i didn't argue that it shows up magically.

Yes, all disease could have delayed death/long lasting permanent damage. And in regard with hospital overwhelmed, its nothing new, this is from 2018, hospital have to setup triage tents: https://time.com/5107984/ho

Of course, the death require some time to show up, some time in 2 weeks, some time in 70 years... Hospital are frequently overwhelmed even before this particular virus, its not new and yet we didn't require shutdown back then.

The case raise dramatically but not the death tolls.

by matz1 6y ago
Just end the shutdown, its never a good strategy in the first place, its doing more harm than good.

Likewise, both could exist.

There are people that really like chocolate and some people that really hate chocolate. Human are so diverse. Is is really hard to believe that there are people that are not negatively affected by this ?

yes Sweden economy affected because their neighbors shutdown their economy but most likely it would have been even worse if Sweden did lockdown.

by matz1 6y ago
Because other countries implement lockdown. Lockdowns is not without cost.

by matz1 6y ago
The death rate maybe higher but they are in decline right now and that without lockdown , I would say the strategy succeed.

Who says doing nothing ? There are lot of thing that can be done : vaccine research, method of treatment improvement, promote hygiene, increase medical capacity (if needed), etc

by matz1 6y ago
That paper doesn't actually shows that its the lockdown that responsible for the decline. Its the classic correlation does not necessarily mean causation.

Shutdown is not a good strategy: https://unherd.com/thepost/oxford-epidemiologists-suppressio...

Every diseases could cause inexplainable long term damage as well. Yes there is so much complexity and many unknowns in health, that doesn't mean we should be afraid of it. Good news is for majority of the case they have full recovery.

Of course i understand it can be tragic for some people to loss life due to this virus but I also understand to achieve near 0 death will also incur high cost. >your lack of empathy truly stands out. I disagree, I sympathize those millio

Because its not worth it to make millions other people suffer due to lockdown.

Hospital are frequently overwhelmed in the past, nothing new, at least at current situation is no more overwhelmed than what has frequently happen in the past.
622.
by matz1 6y ago
So only 140k died (0.04%) and with now with the death rate that is going down, its a good news, even more reason to reopen as soon as possible.
623.
by matz1 6y ago
I agree the US government response is really disappointing, they should have just reopen everything now. I'm not saying that there nothing should be done regarding this virus. The vaccine research still have to continue, treatment rese

Except the danger is overblown, there is risk ? yes of course, like everything else in life there is risk. Thats being said If they feel uncomfortable to work then they should quit, give opportunity for other teacher to take their job.

My point is the hospital are no more overwhelmed then what has frequently happen in the past. We don't need lockdown back then, why we do lockdown now ?

by matz1 6y ago
Hospital are frequently overwhelmed already even without this "pandemic". Many thousand deaths per day are normal situation even before this.

All disease could cause long term damage in some people. Nothing new. Do u know that hospital are frequently overwhelmed even before this pandemic? This nothing new either.
