robpol471 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 In Spain, the discontent of the population against government authorities is growing due to the trend of the pandemic in Spain and especially in Madrid both for the sentences pronounced by government representatives and in February which ensured that there was nothing to worry about because everything was under control but above all because when the epidemic broke out in Italy and measures were taken by the Italian government restrictive, no one in Spain has banned large demonstrations such as that of March 8 in Madrid which is considered to be that which favored the enormous development of contagions in the capital with many participants who then tested positive for COVID-19 as for example the wife of Premier Sancez who was in the front row of the procession that marched through the streets of Madrid. It's a bad time for Spain because in addition to COVID-19 there is the recent scandal involving King Juan Carlos for his secret funds with the people who ask for immediate use to help hospital needs and how successful during the speech made last Wednesday by the king regent Filipe the protest in Spain manifested itself with the " Cacerolada " a " noisy " but peaceful protest of the Spaniards with the use of ... pots, lids and kitchen utensils. In this video there is the "Cacerolada" made by the Spanish for the scandal of the secret funds owned by the King Juan and other Cacerolades have been programmed via social networks to protest government authorities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSNOx3c5gf8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robpol471 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 In Italy the hypothesis that COVID-19 " could have changed " is being evaluated. To advance the hypothesis is Maria Rita Gismondo, director of the Laboratory of clinical microbiology, virology and diagnostics of bio-emergencies of the Sacco hospital in Milan, reference center against COVID-19. The expert expresses "a convergent thought" with that of virologist Ilaria Capua, professor at the University of Florida: "In Lombardy there is something we don't understand. China's deaths were overcome in an infinitesimally smaller area and in a shorter time. Something strange is happening - warns Gismondo - In Lombardy there is an aggressiveness of the COVID-19 that cannot be explained. The hypotheses can all be valid ", he specifies, but" one is that the virus has perhaps changed ". For this “I launch an appeal to the community scientific: let's unite to understand - urges the virologist - If we all get together and study a piece of it, we will probably succeed to understand ".

Jack the Swede in Spain Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Last year (2018-2019) the yearly flu killed over 15 000 persons in Spain, so far we have 1 326 dead....

We need to start to see things from the right perspective. Jack Jack, please look at percentages rather than absolute numbers. The mortality rate of COVID-19 is about 20 times higher than flu. Thus, if it spreads to all of society you don't even want to imagine the consequences. We are only a few months into 2020, without a vaccine, this year will be devastating.

robpol471 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Sorry JacK but I'm thrilled for what you wrote. "All" influences like last year's have their "medicine" or "vaccine" while COVID-19 does not "yet" have a vaccine or medicine and this should make us understand the danger of this contagion is a pandemony that potentially if left untreated as it is happening "all over the world" could assume the infectious potential as those in past centuries such as the plague that made 20 million victims in Europe or the Spanish fever that killed 100 million people in the world just because there were no vaccines or medicines for treatment as until now for the COVID-19 that I remind you is still an "unknown" virus and certainly not comparable to any known and treatable influence. At least I, I dare not think what would have happened if these drastic decisions like the first were not made by the Chinese quarantine at home and I don't understand how you don't consider that the whole world has now decreed ... third world war Vs COVID-19 ho do you think they are all ... crazy?

Jack the Swede in Spain Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 BrianV, do not quite follow you, here are the procentages in Spain. Flu: 3,214744963566224e-4 % Corona: 2,914702100300043e-5 % Do not see where you got the "20 times higher" information. So IMHO it is far more grater risk to die in the flu.

carlosqr Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Not only casualties are to regret or worry about here, the economic disaster is a deep wound, something to be afraid of because it is causing havoc, instability that could lead to fatal social chaos. Being tourism the #1 source of income to the country this virus threw us to the ground.We're biting the dust. More that 600 employees have been fired, me one of them. And searching for a job at this stage is useless until not recovering a bit. If tourism doesn't improve a second round of layoffs may occur. Some other sectors industries have also fired people, Spoon for example, 100 employees. Though numbers might look small compared to other countries they are significant for a small country like ours where we suffer a unemployment rate of 12.4%. This is not a nice picture.

BrianV Posted March 21, 2020 Author Share Posted March 21, 2020 I am very sorry to hear this Carlos. I wish you the very best and hopefully things will improve sooner rather than later. Indeed, this is bleak for the employment and economy. Jack, you seem to divide with the total population, not the diagnosed cases. Look at Italy where things are worst. 4,000 fatalities and 47,000 diagnosed cases (many in critical conditions). This equals 4/47 = 8.5%. Things are not equally bad everywhere but about 3% is not unlikely. Many people will be immune to flu, but as of yet, essentially nobody will be immune to coronavirus. Thus, just in Spain the mortality could reach a million unless the spread is contained or a vaccine is produced. That is why governments are taking drastic measures. This is extremely serious, trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Watson Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 With the flu, you know when you have it, and you stay in bed, not infecting many others, COVID-19 is different, some say 85% of people do not know they have for the few few weeks, so pass it on to many other people, it's an airborne virus, molecules floating in the air for up to 3hrs, anybody breathing it can then be infected. It's not the flu. Just look on youtube at the Bergamo hospital live programs that Sky has been showing, it brings you to tears, they know 30% in a room stuffed full of patients are going to die because of their age, but now many younger patients are not showing signs of improving, and this is one of the most advanced hospitals in Europe. My wide and daughter just had the flu for 2 weeks, crazy high fevers etc, stayed in bed mostly, I looked after them, they got better and are now fine....and I never caught it, felt perfect the whole time. This isn't the flu, that attitude will have you dead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robpol471 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 There are at least 10,356 confirmed cases of COVID-19 across New York, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a press conference Saturday. At least 45,000 people have been tested for COVID-19, the governor said. About 15% of those cases are being hospitalized. "The more test you take, the more positives you find," Cuomo said. Gov. Andrew Cuomo said New York state is in need of medical gowns and is doing everything it can to fill that need. "It's a gown shortage statewide. We're doing better with masks. We're doing better with ventilators, nowhere near where we need to be with ventilators, we need 30,000 ventilators, we're at 6,000. But at least we got to 6,000," Cuomo said on Saturday during a press conference. "The masks, the medical community has told me over and over again, the masks are the priority for the Covid-19. So we have made progress on masks. Gowns are also very important no doubt. But we have not been successful, as of yet, with finding a supplier of gowns." Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez issued an emergency order Saturday closing all hotels, motels and other lodging due to coronavirus. Exceptions are available for those housing essential personnel and those who have been displaced due to the virus, a press release from the mayor said. All short-term vacation rentals must end by March 23 until further notice, the release said. Gimenez also included an order for boats to stop "rafting up" for parties at sea or in Biscayne Bay.

It is one of the answers put in place to collect the alarm cry launched by the hospitals of the most affected Regions and Provinces, where doctors, nurses and volunteers are working tirelessly in difficult conditions to assist the sick. The online call (https://medicipercovid.protezionecivile.it) will expire tonight at 20.00 and is open to all doctors of the National Health Service, affiliated structures and freelancers. Over 3,500 doctors have already responded to the appeal, a number that is growing by the hour. A strong sign of solidarity and a spirit of service which once again testifies to the extraordinary courage of the national community. In such a difficult moment, this is yet another generous response that all of us Italians can be proud of. Thank you all, heroes in a white coat ."

Maurizio Giorgi Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Virus circulating in italy is not the same virus that affected China. Obviously it's only an idea, my two cents that i expressed months ago. We will see Prato is a city of 400.000 people, and there are 200.000 of chineses only living there. No one was affected by the virus. Who could explain this? They generally go to China and return 2 times per year. Instead the North of Italy was hit, with an explosion of cases in Bergamo. In the rest of the country not the same situation, but a lot of people moved from the North to the South in the meanwhile. I concluded that this virus seems to have a sort of artificial intelligence, he knows well where to hit and when. Take it like a fairy tale.

robpol471 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Fear, joy and pain for the first positive for Italian COVID-19. In Italy Mattia the "patient 1" the first Italian positive to COVID-19 a 38 year old man is a sportsman who did amateur marathons and had done a few days before the hospitalization which took place exactly one month ago , after long treatments and having at risk of dying from pneumonia, he should be discharged within days from the Pavia hospital where he is hospitalized. The pregnant wife also tested positive but fortunately she is healed and Mattia will have the joy of seeing his first daughter born but we hope that this birth will ease the pain of the death of his father, also affected by COVID-19 and that to reporters, when his son was hospitalized, he declared that he was desperate for his son's condition but then, unfortunately, he also tested positive and died today.

Kulbit Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Just a small clarification: the virus name is SARS-CoV-2 (acronym for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) ,the disease caused by it is called COVID-19 (abbreviation of COronaVIrus Disease-2019) A German would have been the first European to contract the new Chinese coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 , and to start spreading in Europe. To report it is the renowned New England Journal of Medicine , providing interesting details on the circumstances of his infection. To infect him, as reported by the American magazine, would have been a Chinese entrepreneur who traveled to Germany between 19 and 22 January and then tested positive for Covid-19 once she returned home. During this period, the two would have had several business meetings, during which the woman would not have manifested any symptoms, however managing to infect the German man and at least two other colleagues. Before the symptoms manifested, the man moved for work to the Italian branch of his company (the Webasto of Munich) located in the town of Codogno, near Milan, where the first Italian outbreak of the COVID-19 infection started.

Kulbit Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 An important discovery that makes you understand how important it is to stay at home and, above all, not to run or exercise outdoors in these days It has been shown that SARS-2 (as the virus is called, Covid19 is the disease it causes) to survive once it is expelled from the infected human body through the mouth by speaking or with a cough, and through the upper airways blowing our nose or with a sneeze, it remains suspended in the air in a cloud of aerosol, trying to catch on the multitude of atmospheric particles that are suspended in it, which keep it at altitude and make it travel and twirl at a distance like the leaves at the wind, waiting to be inhaled by the victim of the moment. If then the unfortunate passer-by is a more or less young sportsman who trains running with his mouth open, breathing deeply for physical and muscular effort, thus introducing and expelling a greater quantity of air for the same reason, the chances of inhaling or swallowing the suspended virus become dangerously high, for about 20-30 minutes, if in its path it was preceded by an unaware healthy carrier of the virus, which spread it in aerosol before its passage. In addition, jogging lovers during their run generally sweat, fatigue, produce liquids in large quantities, frequently expel oro-pharyngeal and nasal secretions, which are eliminated naturally and spontaneously during the fast journey, which, if contaminated by the Corona , contribute to the spread of the epidemic by air. The most dangerous time for a doctor these days is when he is performing a nasal swab to a suspect patient, since, in the two or three seconds it takes to extract the long cotton swab from the nose and mouth of the potential patient, if it is present once removed from its natural habitat, the virus can detach itself from the medical device and disperse in the air around it, with a very high risk of contagion for all the people around it. For this reason, health workers who perform this apparently simple diagnostic test are always protected like colleagues who work daily in dedicated infectious wards. This is also the reason why not only is running not recommended in this period Inform all your friends that they should ignore or underestimate the danger of this virus.

Seventy Army trucks brought a hundred coffins from the cemetery of Bergamo to the crematories of other regions where there are municipalities that have made themselves available to accept them. This is what happened on the evening of Wednesday 18 March. This is because there are too many victims in Bergamo for coronaviruses and a part of the bodies, for cremation, are transferred to other territories, as cemeteries and morgues have exceeded the maximum available capacity ....

Sick people sitting on chairs with oxygen cylinders, sitting side by side or lying on beds parked in the corridors waiting with resignation for the arrival of a doctor. Unfortunately, this is absolutely not the way to manage COVID-19 in an emergency room. Checks upon arrival of the sick must be done in areas separate from the emergency room for both checks and if found positive the sick must be hospitalized in places completely isolated from the rest of the hospital because if only one of those sick shown in the video was negative to COVID-19 we can imagine how little time it took to get infected. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7SwbppI4MQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robpol471 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Russia is sending equipment and medical teams to Italy as the nation continues to fight its worsening coronavirus epidemic. The Russian defense ministry said Sunday that it had started flying 100 doctors and virologists, along with disinfection equipment, to the country. The first Il-76 aircraft of the Russian aerospace forces left the Moscow Chkalovsky military airfield on Sunday with Russian specialists and military equipment on board, the Russian military said in a statement. Nine Il-76 transport planes, carrying military doctors, special vehicles for disinfection and other medical equipment, will land today at the Pratica di Mare military airport (near Rome), added the Italian Ministry of Defense. This news came a day after the telephone conversations between Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte and the defense ministers of both countries. According to a Kremlin reading, Russia agreed to provide assistance at the request of Italy, including protective equipment, KAMAZ truck-mounted units used for disinfection, medical and other equipment. "Italy is not alone in this challenge," said Italian Defense Minister Lorenzo Guerini after speaking on the phone with Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu on Saturday, according to a reading.
