Terabith Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 3 minutes ago, lewelma said: I think it is because NY is so international. Of the 481 cases NZ currently has, it looks like about 450 are from international travelers. Even after we closed the borders to all visitors, we still have gotten about 400 cases from the kiwis returning. And we closed the borders with about 20 cases. NY has simply had a ton of people coming in from overseas, not tested, not self-isolated, mixing, and spreading it. I think it would have been politically impossible to close all International flights down when you had 40 known cases with none in the hospital (NYC is 8million to NZ 4 million population, so I doubled the numbers). And to close ALL domestic flights and go into lockdown, when you had 500 cases and two in the hospital with none in ICU (double our numbers again). How is lockdown going? How is your son and his quarantine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewelma Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I am starting to think that only upper and middle class people in America are going into lockdown. There are a ton of poorly paid workers serving all the people in isolation. DH was just talking to his mom on the phone, and she said that in Ohio she can still order home delivery from restaurants and stuff from Amazon. So you have chefs, delivery people, amazon warehouse people, and grocery store check out staff still working and serving the people who have the means to stay at home and avoid exposure.

Ausmumof3 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 5 hours ago, Jean in Newcastle said: But the problem even with that is that it’s a snapshot of one day (Or period of testing). I keep hearing about people who have tested negative but who have still had it and have subsequently died (without going back out into the community). So maybe some get false negatives? And because we’re still in an active pandemic, unless you can put people in a bubble (because even with social distancing there is some spread) it just seems like no numbers are going to be definitive until the very end because this isn’t a controlled situation. Speaking of controls, does anyone know if all the tests being used around the world are the same in what and how they test and in accuracy and in sensitivity (so some might detect it earlier)? Yes I agree. Tested today doesn’t mean clear in two weeks. And no the tests aren’t the same. One caution I’ve seen mentioned about South Korea’s testing numbers is a lot of false positives. And part of the driver behind China not counting asymptomatic cases was false positives as well I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprising fact: Though the rate of infection in New York is still doubling, it is doing so at a slower pace, Cuomo said again on Saturday. The number of ICU admissions fell slightly, as did the number of new hospitalizations. ICU admissions were down to 172 yesterday—the lowest level since earlier this week and down from 374 a day before. Patients who have been newly hospitalized also decreased to 847, down from over 1,000 during the two days previously. “I wouldn’t put too much stock in any one number—the overall trend is still up, but you could argue that the trend is slowing,” Cuomo said of the data. Also though there have been reports of people dying in before they could get seen or get a bed, so I guess that helps decrease new hospitalization numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joker Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I go back and forth on continuing to get groceries delivered because I do feel rotten about it. In the end, I feel we're all safer the less people there are going so I'm still having them delivered. I am tipping way more than usual though and only choosing delivery early in the morning so hopefully less people and stores have just been cleaned. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Koreans were fearful from the Diamond Princess horror. Asia has gone through enough respiratory epidemics to freak out internally. People are buying and wearing masks. Hospitals were getting ready after the first supercluster from the church cult happened. New York airport is a major transit hub. 3M and Honeywell should have ramp up production of PPE when masks were sold out at the end of January because there is demand. Same for ventilators and test kits. You (general) have people evacuated from Diamond Princess to US. That was the time to ramp up preparations. What help South Korea, Hong Kong and Taiwan is that preparing for epidemic won’t cause mass hysteria.

SeaConquest Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I've been ordering almost everything online -- including groceries -- for several years now, so that part doesn't seem different for me. I am tipping much more than usual because I do feel that the drivers deserve hazard pay and because it is taking longer in stores than normal (although our Costco order today was really quick, and this was on a Saturday -- and our shopper actually scored both paper towels and disinfecting wipes!!). But, we do have the driver leave everything outside, so we have no contact. I don't know; I am morally torn. I am an asthmatic, so I don't want to risk it, but I have a single mom friend who is a gig worker and does these deliveries. I gave her an N95 mask, some hand sanitizer, and some gloves to help her be safer, but even with the expanded unemployment, she wouldn't be able to afford life in San Diego if she quit. Our COL is just too high here. But, now with the schools closed, she is having to drag her kid around on deliveries. Normally, we would watch him for her, but we can't right now. I wish I could do more to help her. 😞 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the Wall Street Journal: WASHINGTON— President Trump ordered General Motors Co. to sharply ramp up the production of ventilators to treat coronavirus patients, turning to a wartime presidential power that he had been reluctant to use. Mr. Trump on Friday invoked the Defense Production Act, or DPA, which dates back to the Korean War and gives the president powers to require businesses to produce goods tied to national defense. For weeks he had said that the threat of invoking the DPA was sufficient. Previously he likened using the DPA to nationalizing American business. He reversed course Friday, saying GM was “wasting time” in negotiations with the federal government. https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-lashes-out-at-general-motors-over-ventilators-11585327749 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is happy to provide takeout and he's rearranged the kitchen and staffing to keep as many employed as he can while observing the distancing and sanitation. Folks are ordering because they trust that his employees won't be at work sick and will continue to observe social distancing at home....and it does reduce their odds..they would encounter many more people at the grocery store than are handling the food at the restaurant. I'm glad to hear that. Here in NZ, we have fewer low end people working because there is no online shopping (except groceries although even that has been cut by some stores) and there are no restaurants operating. Without these 2 industries, there are no chefs, wait-staff, Amazon store workers, or delivery people out and about.

The clerks at the grocery stores now are required to have a very high plexiglass shield between them and the customers. Any cash purchases must be a self check out as clerks are not allowed to touch money. All the stock boys have gloves and welder's helmets that completely cover their faces. Only 100 people are allowed in a typical grocery store at any one time and only 1 person per family can shop. Pharmacies are only allowing 1 person in the store at a time and the clerk at our store had a proper mask. The buses are running on a reduced schedule for essential workers and for those who can't otherwise get to their grocery store. The bus drivers I have seen have masks.

The world gets herd immunity (and lots of people die) and we do what? Stay in our bubble and wait for a vaccine that may or may not happen? Keep the borders shut for how long? Or let the population get it very very slowly -- like over 3 years so we don't overwhelm the system? And if so, how do we manage that? In and out of self-isolation as we allow some people to get it over time? I'm just not clear on the longer term plan. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
