Crazy thing about the GM mandate is that GM is responding basically with "yeah, uh... that's what we've been working on." lol. Who knows what's going on : https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/27/tru...ventilators-under-defense-production-act.html
There were oximeters available on Amazon yesterday. I was able to order 1 for my mom who has asthma and an autoimmune disorder. Should arrive Tuesday, you guys should be able to get one pretty easy.
Texas's current testing is abysmal, 44th per capita out of the 50 states. https://www.vox.com/2020/3/26/21193848/coronavirus-us-cases-deaths-tests-by-state That really rich state we border, New Mexico is out testing Texas per capita by a MULTIPLE OF 8.
It’s not slowing down at all in Europe. Italy, Germany, Spain, France, Uk. It’s still on the rise, and they’ve been working to reduce the rate of infection a lot longer than the USA. Buckle up people, this is going to be a long ride.
I have never measured how accurate this is vs a true meter but Samsung phones under the health app (and Maybe other phones) - when measuring stress will display O2 sat level. Again though I've never bothered to look up accuracy or tested it against an actual meter at the hospital, but it might be worth trying in worst case scenario to check for trends because the sensor is definitely measuring something.
How does a company like ford produce vents? Someone enlighten me please.. is it cuz of the space of the warehouse.?
I think all interstate travel (in every state) in the US should be banned too. Except for delivery trucks.
My boss's son, in the Magnolia/Pinehurst area is almost 95% sure he has it. Went to get tested somewhere yesterday and got turned away. Wasn't really clear why he got turned away. This is someone that was in Vegas during the initial outbreak about two weeks ago. Spent a significant amount of time during the week with someone that has since tested positive. Has had a significant fever off and on. Bad cough. Chest tightness. His wife works on a ward in a local ICU with Covid-19 patients. And he can't get tested. Crazy. I guess the test wouldn't change much, but hopefully his wife can get tested when she comes out of quarantine.
This **** could last 3 more months. I hope I'm wrong because I'm starting to feel anxiety from this social isolation.
I saw the area infection chart, that area has the most in the county. Next is George Mitchell's former hometown. I won't be shocked if flu cases go down, coronavirus go up. I believe some of the flu number meshed with the coronavirus number. I still don't understand how a leader of a country has it when he is beyond knowledgeable on the crisis.
Awesome... for someone like me that digs adrenaline, wide spread animal attacks could be just the answer to my prayers. No monkeys in the USA but raccoons, large rats, bears and coyotes could possible get this pandemic party fired up to Biblical proportions.... feral animals fighting with people over toilet paper and rations would be a wonderful sport.
No time for testing when everyone is working or having parties and large social gathering. Prepare for the Southern Evangelicals to flip out if Easter Sunday service is not allowed. All the “Christian leaders” are losing money, and second homes and planes ain’t cheap.
Without yet checking metro and rural population differences, I'd argue that while this is bad, much of it is possibly due to places like West Texas and San Angelo and all the rural areas that have a lot of people in total, but are really spread out and hopefully not too infected currently (or not too symptomatic).
