I would not be surprised if a combination of travel restrictions, proactive testing and contact tracing and the simple dispersion of rural populations leads to some US states having very different, much more positive, outcomes and experiences than what has been seen elsewhere in the world.
I agree. Our country is quite heterogenous in its population distribution. Big cities on the East coast, West coast and a few in the Midwest and South. With lots of smaller communities in between. New York City's epidemiologic curve will likely wind up looking very different than Ames, Iowa or Houston, Texas.
"Within 30 minutes of taking chloroquine phosphate, the man in his 60s experienced “immediate effects” and had to be admitted to a nearby Banner Health hospital, the medical system in Arizona said in a press release Monday.
His wife, also in her 60s, is in critical condition after taking the additive, which is used in aquariums to kill some organisms, like algae, that may harm fish."
As they always say in Toxicology classes, "The dose makes the poison."
I heard 61% alcohol kills the virus, but who can drink that much?
In a dramatic sign of the coronavirus' anticipated toll, the Army Corps of Engineers is planning to convert vacant hotels, college dormitories and other facilities into intensive care wards with tens of thousands of makeshift hospital beds, first in New York but probably expanding to California and other states.
That announcement Friday at a Pentagon news conference by Lt. Gen Todd T. Semonite, commander of Army Corps of Engineers, marks an escalation of the U.S. military role. Already it is providing 2,000 ventilators and 5 million protective masks and preparing to dispatch hospital ships on both coasts. Governors are calling up thousands of National Guard troops.
Saw that. On the veterinary front, there are moves afoot to use veterinary teaching hospitals (usually associated with large Universities) as a secondary location for triaging clinical ambulatory human cases. Veterinary cases will be looked at elsewhere in these circumstances.

Let's hope they don't neuter/spay anyone.
No nurse! No! I said 'slip off his spectacles'!
On the plus side, it's one less (ok, two less) places to get cancer.
Here’s an update from Korea. Things are definitely moving in the right direction. We still have had no mandated business closures or stay-at-home orders, and I don’t see that changing. The government is talking about going after churches, but so far they haven’t touched them—churches are well protected by the Korean constitution and some of them are politically quite powerful. Most churches are doing virtual services (including mine), but there are a few holdouts. Bars were well-attended last Friday evening and restaurants are still plugging along. I haven’t noticed or heard of any restaurants shutting down due to poor business. All shelves at all retail outlets I’ve been to have been well-stocked throughout this thing. Also, I took the family out for a walk on Sunday and there were more people out at the nearby stream than you’d see during a peak weekend in the summer. Another guy found a local amusement park packed. Of course, everyone was wearing a mask.
At the pub on Friday a few of us speculated as to what was happening in Japan. One guy who lived there more recently than me mentioned masks and lack of handshakes, and I think those may be the biggest factors. Apparently, nothing has slowed down in Japan—trains are still packed, few businesses let people work from home and bars/restaurants are busy. Maybe everyone wearing a mask is the most important way to stop this thing. That and nobody shakes hands there—it’s all bowing (men normally shake hands in Korea as they bow). So, because the livable land space in Japan is quite small for the population (same here in Korea), they have developed social distancing practices over the centuries which see them well in this kind of situation. That’s my take, anyway. They are probably understating numbers by not testing everyone, but that can't be too big a factor.
I have not kept up with this thread more than the previous three or four pages, but I’ll keep an eye on it today if anyone has a question.

At a nearby hospital a few years back, they did an unwanted vasectomy n a man one week before he got married. I don't know what happened with a lawsuit.

Two questions:
1. How do you drink your beer through the mask?
2. Why haven't the churches moved their services to the bars?

1. A straw.
2. Pubs are too busy showing rugby at 10 a.m. on Sunday.
