Anonymous Coward User ID: 77091170 Norway 03/20/2020 01:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This guy breaks it all down and explains why such drastic measures are being taken regarding SARS-CoV-2 aka COVID-19. Quoting: TheGasMan II 39 minute video [link to youtu.be (secure)] VERY accurate presentation. Guy is no doubt a doctor or scientist. NOT a politician/lawyer, big-businessman or artist-entertainer. However, an Israeli scientist says its slowing down. His wife is an artist-entertainer, though it should not affect his reasoning.. Israeli Nobel Laureate: Coronavirus spread is slowing Michael Levitt, an American-British-Israeli biophysicist who won the 2013 Nobel prize for chemistry for "the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems," has become something of a household name in China over the last few months. Although his specialty is not in epidemiology, he accurately forecast the slowing down of the spread of the virus in February, giving hope to those affected by the lockdown. Levitt's wife, Shoshan Brosh, is a researcher of Chinese art, meaning that the couple regularly travels between America, Israel and China. Consequently, when the virus broke out in Hubei province, Levitt wrote to his Chinese friends in support. [link to www.jpost.com (secure)] I thnk both are partially right. A lot of people have natural immunuty, through as yet unknown mechanisms. So while the virus will spread around, it wont kill many people, except some elderly ones and those with health problems. . |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78654785 He basically breaks down what the virus is, how it spreads and how even the best case scenarios will overwhelm the medical system. I found it very informative and very concerning. We who have been monitoring this on GLP knew this back in January. Nobody else wanted to believe it was a problem back then. Trump has taken critical healthcare away from 30 million US citizens !! And given it to 30 million illegals in the USA. Remember Trump's campaign promise to deport all illegals in the USA ? Well Trump lied, he never deported them, restricted ICE to only deport serious criminal illegals. All those 30 million illegals Trump lied about deporting will now will take beds, doctors care, medicine, etc away from 30 million desperate US citizens. Many US citizens will die now because Trump lied. Just fuck you.. |

The flu season is just a slight change in already circulating flu viruses. The NOVEL virus spreads extremely fast. Pandemic flu is...NASTY STUFF. 5. 1918 Spanish Flu is the Grand daddy of flu pandemics. It killed 50,000,000 people world-wide with 676,000 people in the U.S.A. mortality rate was 2%. Swine flu was only .05%. Seasonal flu this year has killed 18,000--explains it on the chart .06% mortality rate. 6. 81% cases get mild "cold-like" symptoms (the good news) but the bad symptoms 14% pneumonia then 5% of those infected = critical sepsis and respiratory failure. 50% death rate of those 5% will pass. 7. At the 26 min mark narrator explains the concern is to keep the CURVE FLATTENED so our health care is NOT overwhelmed. (Graph at 29 minute mark shows "what doing nothing--no lock-downs--would mean...versus..."doing something.") Graphic, by the way, puts the hypothetical out between April thru June 2020. CHART ABOUT SPANISH FLU AND OTHERS IS AT 7:00 MIN MARK. Goes on to explain SARS and MERS--fewer than 1,000 deaths world wide 10 min. mark. SARS mortality was 9%--while MERS was 35% but they got a handle on it with drugs. COVD-19 mortality percentage is 3% (10 min mark.) SARS (Sudden Acute Respitory Syndrome) was very sudden and was successfully contained. SARS did NOT have this strange "contagion even if NOT symptomatic" so it was easier to contain early on. UP TO 2 WEEKS TO SHOW SYMPTOMS in the COVD-19 virus--victims MOST contagious by day 5 of getting the virus. If your symptoms don't even show up for over 1 week you can be shedding the VIRUS AT DAY 5 WITHOUT SYMPTOMS with maximum contagion. This makes it very difficult to contain. 14 min mark in presentation shows charts of contagion, etc. ALSO: Without the ability to TEST ASYMPTOMATIC PEOPLE...it spreads rapidly without our ability to contain it. Next--dropplet contagion is most dangerous...airborne means the "droplets" are so tiny they aerosolize into the air. VIRUS LIVES ON SURFACES --ESPECIALLY THE HANDS. Avoid touching your face, nose, eyes, mouth. Indirect contact where virus falls onto a doornob STAY ALIVE FOR AT LEAST SEVERAL HOURS TO SEVERAL DAYS ON METAL/PLASTIC. "Your hands are NOT YOUR FRIENDS right now...keep your hands clean and don't touch stuff!" (Disinfect your living areas/working areas.) 18 minute mark in presentation. CHART ON TRANSMISSION HERE. Can COVD-19 be contained? China's Wuhan province a good example they were able to contain it--but MAJOR LOCK DOWN. Depends on whether or not U.S. can get the same level of LOCK DOWN as China was able to do. SELF-QUARANTINE IF YOU ARE ILL. (...WHICH is obvious, but if there are no symptoms many will go to work and carry on as if they are fine.) 24 Minute mark (with a really awful chart for "world-wide spread" at 24:30 min mark): HOW BAD IS IT? THE R-NOT RATE NOW IS 2.5...for every infection the person passes it on to 2 1/2 people...number of cases DOUBLES every week at this rate. 24 minute mark shows THE CURVE FOR EXPONENTIAL RATES FOR VARIOUS COUNTRIES. Question: How many are infected in the U.S.A. right now? We have no idea. (24:54 min mark.) But very interesting comment about the "rate curve" verses the LOCK DOWN POINT FOR WUHAN and what that means for the curve. (Pretty scary when you consider that the U.S. is NOT locked down except for some cities right now 3-19-2020) Narrator suggests you MULTIPLY by at least 10Xs the number stats that are being announced for the U.S. on the news. (Watch that Wuhan China explanation at the 24:50 min mark to understand why they believe this based on China--they thought there were only 350 cases when there were actually cases in the 1,000s.) CHART AT 26 MINUTES (talks about multiplying the numbers) IMPORTANCE TO "SUPPRESS" THE CURVE? diagram at the 27 minute mark...what would the curve look like without a lock down versus trying to get people to stay home. (Dotted line in this graphic represents "how many the hospitals will be able to handle and at what point is the health-care system OVERWHELMED?" 31 Minute mark--graphic shows % of mild versus critical symptoms from COVD-19. THIS discussion I found most concerning as he has put together various scenarios where 10%...20%...25%--with the actual models showing 50% catchy-rate actually get the virus in JUST ONE COUNTY (his county)... it shows how many would need critical ICU intervention to save their lives... can the few hospitals (we have 3 hospitals in our immediate county with only about 20 ICU beds) actually handle 1,000 critical care patients? Um...no. Graph at 32 min. mark. 12 days is average hospital stay required to take a critical care person to level where he/she doesn't need ICU care. Narrator's county has 10 beds..with the modeled infection rate at 50% with 2800 cases will need it! Woah. The majority watching the video will ONLY HAVE MILD SYMPTOMS and no hospitalization... the problem lies with the SERIOUS CASES due to our hospitals NOT having the "carrying capacity" to meet the demand for ICU critical care. (35 Minute mark) Narrator says: "THIS is why we need to take the lock-downs and self-isolation measures SERIOUSLY." He goes on to report about people in NY thinking they can go to Saracuse hospitals rather than the small town hospitals?...He says that will NOT work. Narrator asks: HOW MUCH ARE WE WILLING TO DO TO PROTECT OUR MOST VULNERABLE FOLKS UNDER THESE NUMBERS. WE MUST "FLATTEN THIS CURVE"...ONLY EXTREME MEASURES WILL HELP US SO PLEASE HONOR THE DIRECTIVE IN YOUR OWN COMMUNITIES! END OUTLINE I thought I pretty much had a good handle on the COVD-19 information before watching this video...I didn't...and I'm really appreciating your posting this. It tells the very LATEST with studies on the example from China and what can be expected here. Seriously important video. S.S.PUG Thanks for that summary and taking your time.

Pandemic flu is...NASTY STUFF. 5. 1918 Spanish Flu is the Grand daddy of flu pandemics. It killed 50,000,000 people world-wide with 676,000 people in the U.S.A. mortality rate was 2%. Swine flu was only .05%. Seasonal flu this year has killed 18,000--explains it on the chart .06% mortality rate. 6. 81% cases get mild "cold-like" symptoms (the good news) but the bad symptoms 14% pneumonia then 5% of those infected = critical sepsis and respiratory failure. 50% death rate of those 5% will pass. 7. At the 26 min mark narrator explains the concern is to keep the CURVE FLATTENED so our health care is NOT overwhelmed. (Graph at 29 minute mark shows "what doing nothing--no lock-downs--would mean...versus..."doing something.") Graphic, by the way, puts the hypothetical out between April thru June 2020. CHART ABOUT SPANISH FLU AND OTHERS IS AT 7:00 MIN MARK. Goes on to explain SARS and MERS--fewer than 1,000 deaths world wide 10 min. mark. SARS mortality was 9%--while MERS was 35% but they got a handle on it with drugs. COVD-19 mortality percentage is 3% (10 min mark.) SARS (Sudden Acute Respitory Syndrome) was very sudden and was successfully contained. SARS did NOT have this strange "contagion even if NOT symptomatic" so it was easier to contain early on. UP TO 2 WEEKS TO SHOW SYMPTOMS in the COVD-19 virus--victims MOST contagious by day 5 of getting the virus. If your symptoms don't even show up for over 1 week you can be shedding the VIRUS AT DAY 5 WITHOUT SYMPTOMS with maximum contagion. This makes it very difficult to contain. 14 min mark in presentation shows charts of contagion, etc. ALSO: Without the ability to TEST ASYMPTOMATIC PEOPLE...it spreads rapidly without our ability to contain it. Next--dropplet contagion is most dangerous...airborne means the "droplets" are so tiny they aerosolize into the air. VIRUS LIVES ON SURFACES --ESPECIALLY THE HANDS. Avoid touching your face, nose, eyes, mouth. Indirect contact where virus falls onto a doornob STAY ALIVE FOR AT LEAST SEVERAL HOURS TO SEVERAL DAYS ON METAL/PLASTIC. "Your hands are NOT YOUR FRIENDS right now...keep your hands clean and don't touch stuff!" (Disinfect your living areas/working areas.) 18 minute mark in presentation. CHART ON TRANSMISSION HERE. Can COVD-19 be contained? China's Wuhan province a good example they were able to contain it--but MAJOR LOCK DOWN. Depends on whether or not U.S. can get the same level of LOCK DOWN as China was able to do. SELF-QUARANTINE IF YOU ARE ILL. (...WHICH is obvious, but if there are no symptoms many will go to work and carry on as if they are fine.) 24 Minute mark (with a really awful chart for "world-wide spread" at 24:30 min mark): HOW BAD IS IT? THE R-NOT RATE NOW IS 2.5...for every infection the person passes it on to 2 1/2 people...number of cases DOUBLES every week at this rate. 24 minute mark shows THE CURVE FOR EXPONENTIAL RATES FOR VARIOUS COUNTRIES. Question: How many are infected in the U.S.A. right now? We have no idea. (24:54 min mark.) But very interesting comment about the "rate curve" verses the LOCK DOWN POINT FOR WUHAN and what that means for the curve. (Pretty scary when you consider that the U.S. is NOT locked down except for some cities right now 3-19-2020) Narrator suggests you MULTIPLY by at least 10Xs the number stats that are being announced for the U.S. on the news. (Watch that Wuhan China explanation at the 24:50 min mark to understand why they believe this based on China--they thought there were only 350 cases when there were actually cases in the 1,000s.) CHART AT 26 MINUTES (talks about multiplying the numbers) IMPORTANCE TO "SUPPRESS" THE CURVE? diagram at the 27 minute mark...what would the curve look like without a lock down versus trying to get people to stay home. (Dotted line in this graphic represents "how many the hospitals will be able to handle and at what point is the health-care system OVERWHELMED?" 31 Minute mark--graphic shows % of mild versus critical symptoms from COVD-19. THIS discussion I found most concerning as he has put together various scenarios where 10%...20%...25%--with the actual models showing 50% catchy-rate actually get the virus in JUST ONE COUNTY (his county)... it shows how many would need critical ICU intervention to save their lives... can the few hospitals (we have 3 hospitals in our immediate county with only about 20 ICU beds) actually handle 1,000 critical care patients? Um...no. Graph at 32 min. mark. 12 days is average hospital stay required to take a critical care person to level where he/she doesn't need ICU care. Narrator's county has 10 beds..with the modeled infection rate at 50% with 2800 cases will need it! Woah. The majority watching the video will ONLY HAVE MILD SYMPTOMS and no hospitalization... the problem lies with the SERIOUS CASES due to our hospitals NOT having the "carrying capacity" to meet the demand for ICU critical care. (35 Minute mark) Narrator says: "THIS is why we need to take the lock-downs and self-isolation measures SERIOUSLY." He goes on to report about people in NY thinking they can go to Saracuse hospitals rather than the small town hospitals?...He says that will NOT work. Narrator asks: HOW MUCH ARE WE WILLING TO DO TO PROTECT OUR MOST VULNERABLE FOLKS UNDER THESE NUMBERS. WE MUST "FLATTEN THIS CURVE"...ONLY EXTREME MEASURES WILL HELP US SO PLEASE HONOR THE DIRECTIVE IN YOUR OWN COMMUNITIES! END OUTLINE I thought I pretty much had a good handle on the COVD-19 information before watching this video...I didn't...and I'm really appreciating your posting this. It tells the very LATEST with studies on the example from China and what can be expected here. Seriously important video. S.S.PUG Thank you for the CLIFF notes. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78018417 03/20/2020 06:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | bottom bottom line: 50% of ICU cases die. we are told that the entire basis of the crisis is containment of the spread rate so that hospitals and more specifically ICU units are not overwhelmed. But half of them die anyway. WE ALL ROLL THE DICE! |

User ID: 1349174 United States 03/20/2020 06:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks Gasman... Quoting: SaintPattysPug This video really helped me to wrap my mind around all of this COVD-19 material that has flooded the Forum and the media thus far. I think it is well worth the 39 minutes and if you only wish to check certain topics in the outline below I have provided the "minute marks" you can find them at. Hope this helps: Points of interest (pretty basic stuff): Humans carry on average about 5 different viral infections at any given time. (Your immune system fights them off but they're just hanging in there.) SARS-2 COVID-19 is the name of the VIRUS, while COVID-19 indicates the actual disease (much like HIV is the virus and AIDS is the disease--differnet designations.) He explains the virus dynamics (you need to watch this part--talks about how it enters the cell, uses it as a host and replicates, etc.) Because the COVD-19 is an "envelope virus" (it puts on the membrane of YOUR own cell like a winter coat) --which is good because this can be destroyed by most detergents/soaps. Proteins on the surface of the virus look like a "crown" which is why the name "corona" is used for the name. When you hear "novel" in front of the virus name it means the PROTEINS of the virus are BRAND NEW and no one has an immunity already in place against them. "Novel" means NEW. This is 5 minutes into the 40 minute presentation. Question: Why is the "novel virus" so dangerous? (Lessons learned from normal flu.) 1. The world has never seen this virus before. (IMHO this should explain to people who want an "instant cure" for this illness WHY IT WILL TAKE TIME to get a handle on a cure. Scientists haven't seen it before, so there is ZERO RESEARCH to be able to just run and make a vaccine for it...but it is coming.) THERE IS NO IMMUNITY...NOT A SINGLE PERSON...PERIOD. 2. "Seasonal flu" is the circulation of viruses that the human population's immune systems ALREADY RECOGNIZE. 3. When a "novel flu" appears...it travels very fast and is very contageous...this is when they label the "novel virus" a PANDEMIC FLU. 4. "Seasonal flu" is NOT novel. The flu season is just a slight change in already circulating flu viruses. The NOVEL virus spreads extremely fast.

Can you highlight what the main points of the video are a least? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78654785 Easy. Even with extreme social distancing - we are fucked. At this point, the only different is how fucked we are. Maybe not. As the Israeli Nobel prize winner (whose wife is an artist-entertainer, as are most women)....said...[see post above].... ....in a cruise ship with very close quarters confinement for weeks...... only 20% were infected.... hence a lot of people could have natural immunity to the virus, through as yet unknown mechanisms.... . I was thinking about that myself |
