The Philippines have only conducted 5,265 tests. Out of those a whopping 3,018 came back positive. A population of 105,000,000 people...
I read elsewhere that CV+ patients are spending on average 2-3 weeks on intubation. Years ago my 85 year old mother caught pneumonia, landed in the ICU and was intubated. The ICU doctors at that time told me that they did not want her on intubation more than a week. IIRC the concern was that the lungs would atrophy. That VC+ patients are going three weeks now is crazy.
Dang, France. Feel for you! One thing I never did before all this time ever was clean my keys. I did clean them yesterday in a bowl of Lysol disinfectant. What came out and off of them was a disgusting cesspool of who knows what. I never gave it any thought before. Clean those keys, people! Also, wiped my wallet and cards.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/france/ Edit: it does seem like it's probaly a data mistake. Found very different number on France's Coronavirus wikipedia page.
^Maybe France recently got a massive increase in tests? edit- doesn't look like it, unless testing spiked after 3/30. WTF happened It's pure covid-19 concentrate.
This is a follow up limited study that does not replicate the original results from the French author. Specifically these patients with COVID-19 who took Zithromax and Plaquenil still had viral loads after treatment.

I'm sorry to hear about your grandma. TBH, I haven't kept up with how long they're lasting intubated but I think this patient is going to pull thru. Xray lungs look 15% better every morning. I guess the formula is vent on a week minimum and antibiotics but some of these hospitals don't have this luxury of not being overrun. Most hospitals just have a handful of ventilators and limited ICU nurses. The ratio is 1 nurse to 2-3 patients.
Thanx for asking. I am much better now. It really wasn't covid19 it was some stomach bug, most probably a bacterial gastritis. Yesterday I felt that I had a heavy rock in my stomach. It's not enough that I got sick I had to consider if it was a deadly virus that would get me to the hospital in ICU. What a time to be alive.
lol this is only in vitro. In vitro we have already found a thousand cures to HIV and all kind of viruses. The difference between in vitro and in vivo is like Dwight Howard shooting 80/100 FTs in practice and then bricking everything in real games.
ffs stop posting data that uses "confirmed cases" (like mortality rate), that is a flawed metric because the rate of testing is wildly different from place to place and is changing all the time. You can't know if an increase in cases is because more people are getting infected or because more are being tested. Stats like number of deaths per day and hospital capacity are more informative. And even death rate isn't perfect, since cause of death can be (intentionally or accidentally) misdiagnosed. Hopefully this trend continues.
The Uk's all stats are garbage. The deaths are from days to weeks ago. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...about-the-uks-coronavirus-death-toll-is-wrong There is zero point in looking at any curve coming from there. How difficult is it to report deaths from hospitals in time?
Is that....a chart that shows the rates are dropping by using today? A day that we're basically 1/3 of the way through? You can't post about not using certain stats because you feel they're inaccurate, and then post a graph that shows today's deaths being down because the day is far from over. Let alone the variability in the time of the individual day. Or maybe I misread...
