Jump off the cliff with the shortest line to the edge in order to reduce your exposure to the virus.

I know they don't have much freedom in the first place, but it still seems odd their deaths just stopped completely.
Maybe they are lying? Am I goin crazy?
WHO says Italy has #2 healthcare, France #1 ...
both are getting destroyed 
I mean China is super totalitarian so that would help them contain it. But yeah I don't have any trust in the regime's honesty.

We did it guys! We passed Iran. Watch out Germany, we’re on your tail.
This is pretty stunning. The US is likely to see the highest number of new cases in a single day of any country since this started. (I’m not including the one day China backfilled their case numbers)

Americans need to wake up. If you think things are bad in Italy, look at these graphs. A reduction in the slope of this line means a slowing of growth. Italy has been slowing growth for weeks. The US hasn’t even started to reduce growth.

"Contain" a self replicating microscopic fragment of DNA bonded to a wound up protein that can mutate in a matter of days to have a different mode of existence? Not likely. Herd immunity is the long run goal unless we are willing to become completely dependent on pharmaceutical companies and hand out systems. We have to beat this thing in a safe respectful way rather than run from it. There are companies that claim they will have a "universal vaccine" (vaccines require years of testing to be deemed safe) within a couple months in enough quantities for everyone on the planet. The biggest issue right now is lack of ventilators. This is the number one reason people are dying right now. Why is the push for vaccines that are not properly tested and not for making ventilators? If 8 billion vaccines can be made in short order like that you'd think ventilators would be no problem. They don't even have any recombinant DNA or adjuvents, just a plastic bit and an air pump.
Get with it people.

You have to compare deaths to how many cases there were a week to two weeks ago.

New York did 32,000 tests today. They appear to be the only state with widespread testing.

Do you think this will turn into a seasonal thing just like the flu?

We will probably never know. It would be helpful if states reported data on how many hospitalizations for covid they have. Those are hard numbers that aren’t going to be skewed much by variations in testing.

Not self replicating, it requires a living host.

I have no idea. Influenza is very different type of virus. I think it’s more likely that it will die off after enough people get immunity, with occasional outbreaks until the vaccine is widely available. Just because the illness looks a little bit like the flu doesn’t mean it will behave like the flu. It is much more likely to behave like most viral disease, where it is endemic and causes illness in children but most adults are immune.
It will be one of those diseases where you get immunized when you are a child and maybe boosters every decade or two. It probably won’t require a new vaccine every year.

That's interesting. I was just asking because I was talking with a friend about it earlier. Looks like it's up in the air for now :/

I really think a nationwide stay at home order like California’s is inevitable. I think we’ve got maybe two or three more days before a total nationwide shutdown.

Not self replicating, it requires a living host.
Yes correct. Within the living host it tricks the hosts cells into replicating more viruses until cell death or burst. Sometimes millions of viruses build up before the cell bursts.
So not "self" replicating.
