Great great article



In 2018, I wrote a story for The Atlantic arguing that America was not ready for the pandemic that would eventually come. In October, the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security war-gamed what might happen if a new coronavirus swept the globe. And then one did. Hypotheticals became reality. “What if?” became “Now what?”



On the Global Health Security Index, a report card that grades every country on its pandemic preparedness, the United States has a score of 83.5—the world’s highest. Rich, strong, developed, America is supposed to be the readiest of nations. That illusion has been shattered. Despite months of advance warning as the virus spread in other countries, when America was finally tested by COVID-19, it failed.

More transmissible and fatal than seasonal influenza, the new coronavirus is also stealthier, spreading from one host to another for several days before triggering obvious symptoms. To contain such a pathogen, nations must develop a test and use it to identify infected people, isolate them, and trace those they’ve had contact with. That is what South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong did to tremendous effect. It is what the United States did not.



This is not going to end well for the stubborn

If the country could have accurately tracked the spread of the virus, hospitals could have executed their pandemic plans, girding themselves by allocating treatment rooms, ordering extra supplies, tagging in personnel, or assigning specific facilities to deal with COVID-19 cases. None of that happened. Instead, a health-care system that already runs close to full capacity, and that was already challenged by a severe flu season, was suddenly faced with a virus that had been left to spread, untracked, through communities around the country. Overstretched hospitals became overwhelmed. Basic protective equipment, such as masks, gowns, and gloves, began to run out. Beds will soon follow, as will the ventilators that provide oxygen to patients whose lungs are besieged by the virus.


Not good. Sounds exactly like what I have been saying for weeks. Ouch.

Partly, that’s because the White House is a ghost town of scientific expertise. A pandemic-preparedness office that was part of the National Security Council was dissolved in 2018. On January 28, Luciana Borio, who was part of that team, urged the government to “act now to prevent an American epidemic,” and specifically to work with the private sector to develop fast, easy diagnostic tests. But with the office shuttered, those warnings were published in The Wall Street Journal, rather than spoken into the president’s ear. Instead of springing into action, America sat idle.



This will be the best and most informative article any of you will read on any of this.


Mob will produce it for you. This is how you teach yourself. Read and learn from good information

This thread will help put to bed all of the shitty rumors and so called facts. All of the crying. All of the finger pointing. All the media talk can be put to bed.

Trump administration fucked up. That’s common sense. Read. I don’t even hate trump...I hate his cock sucking no good ride or die supporters that think everything he says is fact. That’s who i hate. The red eye, the roll tide, the Enflameo type.

I. The Next Months

Having fallen behind, it will be difficult—but not impossible—for the United States to catch up. To an extent, the near-term future is set because COVID-19 is a slow and long illness. People who were infected several days ago will only start showing symptoms now, even if they isolated themselves in the meantime. Some of those people will enter intensive-care units in early April. As of last weekend, the nation had 17,000 confirmed cases, but the actual number was probably somewhere between 60,000 and 245,000. Numbers are now starting to rise exponentially: As of Wednesday morning, the official case count was 54,000, and the actual case count is unknown. Health-care workers are already seeing worrying signs: dwindling equipment, growing numbers of patients, and doctors and nurses who are themselves becoming infected.




And no I don’t need 7 different threads.

A studyreleased by a team at Imperial College London concluded that if the pandemic is left unchecked, those beds will all be full by late April. By the end of June, for every available critical-care bed, there will be roughly 15 COVID-19 patients in need of one. By the end of the summer, the pandemic will have directly killed 2.2 million Americans, notwithstanding those who will indirectly die as hospitals are unable to care for the usual slew of heart attacks, strokes, and car accidents. This is the worst-case scenario. To avert it, four things need to happen—and quickly.



2.2 million if we do nothing. Lmfao. This is what the Klan has argued here...for us to do nothing.


Trump wants the country opened for business by Easter. Lot of business owners hurting and selfishly agree and ignore these warning signs.


I said word for word we could see 1.8 million die if we do nothing. Studies say 2.2 million.

Mob knows nothing.

I don’t recommend that at all actually. I just made a statement that people in places like India are more immune to viruses and bacteria. Maybe you need to learn how to read. Keep reaching little girl.

You have to drink water to live and the shit that they drink isn’t clean. Yes I am tripling down on it again. Lmfao. What’s funny is you think this shatters my reputation or soemthing. YOU HAVENT DONE SHIT HERE and yet you disrespect someone who has given tons to this forum.

Not only do you NOT respect your elders. You don’t even respect the real ones who have shared unprecedented information. Very shameful shit for you

We are completely underestimating the numbers. This is far worse than being reported
