It seemed like a balanced and nouanced approach. shoreline is closer to the more concentrated area. last week, dh was talking? to someone with kids in elementary. the local school only had 70 kids show up out of a student population of over 450. people are keeping their kids home even with school going. I'm out of the loop - as even though I had dudeling in school for the outside supports - he's refusing to do anything. at least I know he's not going to bring anything home. (I'm currently risky.) - our district is still open, but making plans for if they need to close. the gov is supposedly banning gatherings over 250 people in the three counties hardest hit. (not requiring employers to close, or schools to close. yet.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acadie Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 4 minutes ago, kdsuomi said: Honestly, I think much of the non-concern where I live is that most people think it has been in our area and circulating since January. Since then, but not before, mostly elderly people have been getting a mysterious respiratory illness that lasts for a few weeks. We have a college with international students, lots of tourists, and people who travel, so any group could have brought it over before China was concerned about it. If it really has been here for that long, and the symptoms and ages of people getting it match, then it's already everywhere and no quarantine situation will work. I think many public health officials agree with you the horse is out of the barn, BUT that slowing the spread is absolutely crucial to prevent our healthcare systems from breaking down, as we've seen in China and now in Italy.

Aura Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) They've got a state park here in Georgia that's set to isolate infected people. First person just went in yesterday. https://www.wsbtv.com/news/georgia/first-coronavirus-patient-transferred-isolation-site-state-park/SSN7H7F4WNFUPAMCKNUYWUNWSM/ This really seems too little, too late. It's already in our communities! We have 22 cases, of which, the majority don't even know how they caught it (and all but one are hospitalized, so I'm assuming the lone person not in the hospital is now at the state park?) If they were going to isolate infected people, they should've started a long time ago! I'm just shaking my head. Who are the people making these decisions? Was this decision made a long time ago and is just now being implemented--which is not a reassuring thought. The bottom line is this is a containment move. We're way past that now. We should be doing mitigation. ETA: TESTING and containment was needed weeks ago. Without the testing, containment was not much of an option.

Aura Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 PLEASE DON'T QUOTE--I will probably delete this post in the future. But I need a place to vent/express concern. Dh just found out his uncle had a stroke. No details. But if this uncle passes, dh is talking about driving to IN. I hate this. His grandparents are not living. This uncle has been a real s.o.b. The only reason dh would go would because of his mother and because of the cultural expectations surrounding this. But his mother is extremely high risk! She has COPD and has to do breathing treatments multiple times a day just to be able to breathe. I don't think she could fight off this virus. I don't want dh going. He is too likely to catch it himself and/or take it to his mother. He would not stop blaming himself if he thought he was responsible for something like that. I don't know where his siblings (he has three--two in the same town as his mom, and the third much closer than we are) stand on this issue. I don't know if he'll have their support in trying to keep her isolated. Knowing the culture, I suspect other family members would want to come to pay respects. His mom cannot have people coming to stay at her house! I don't know if she will say no, though. On the other hand, it's very possible that this could be the last time he sees her. We already decided to cancel our trip up there for spring break because of the risks. But I don't know how much longer she's got--they will not talk about that. I'm just really frustrated and sad about this. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom2scouts Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 It was just announced that our state has its first community spread of the virus. They have no idea how the guy got it since he hasn't traveled or been in contact with any known cases. It's in the county where my elderly parents live and the guy is at the hospital where my dad gets his heart treatment. My parents don't have much of a social life, but my dad still has regular doctor appointments, they shop and pick up prescriptions, and they sometimes eat out. I'll need to call my mom and remind her they need to stay home as much as possible. DD's large sports event is still on for this weekend, Thursday through Sunday, but only immdiate family is allowed to attend now. We're the first event tomorrow, so we'll go and then get out of there. She's really worried that her state meet will be cancelled next week and I think she's probably right. Our governor is trying to be very proactive without totally upending people's lives, but he's taking a lot of criticism by people who think he's overreacting. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, it's probably just that they now know what it is, not that it's just reaching an area. Absolutely the spread can be slowed! There are several things we as individuals and as communities can do to slow the spread. Check out the graph in the article below on the difference in mortality rates in Philadelphia and St. Louis, during the 1918 influenza pandemic. https://qz.com/1816060/a-chart-of-the-1918-spanish-flu-shows-why-social-distancing-works/ And this link explains the importance of interventions to flatten the curve with COVID-19 today. These public health measures mean people will be much more likely to have the medical care they need. Preparing our own households and employing social distancing measures are ways we can take care of each other--and that means people we love and our wider communities too. https://www.vox.com/2020/3/10/21171481/coronavirus-us-cases-quarantine-cancellation?fbclid=IwAR0yD0mJ8VvTK0MqaAfvOZ_f0I0Xj7D7_Z9GoNURHJrZXj_hWnSY8Sko49k Flattening the curve means that all the social distancing measures now being deployed in places like Italy and South Korea, and on a smaller scale in places like Seattle and Santa Clara County, California, aren’t so much about preventing illness but rather slowing down the rate at which people get sick. On Thursday, the CDC posted new guidance for people over age 60 and people with chronic medical conditions — the two groups considered most vulnerable to severe pneumonia from Covid-19 — to “avoid crowds as much as possible.” “If more of us do that, we will slow the spread of the disease,” Emily Landon, an infectious disease specialist and hospital epidemiologist at the University of Chicago Medicine, told Vox. “That means my mom and your mom will have a hospital bed if they need it.” Edited March 11, 2020 by Acadie 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyD Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) Aura, that is so difficult. It really does sound like your MIL should not have visitors. Here in Israel it's up to 97 cases and in addition to the new travel restrictions (anyone returning from abroad must go into a 2-week quarantine) and bans on visiting nursing homes, the government has just banned all indoor gatherings of more than 100 people. Schools are still open but the Health Ministry is talking about closing them so I think that is likely to happen soon. El Al and the whole tourist industry are cratering and the government is being criticized for overreacting, but to their enormous credit (IMO) they are adamant that they intend to do everything possible to prevent the healthcare system from being overwhelmed and having to lock down everything, as in Italy.

It's terrifying when the Hive knows more about how this isn't 'just the flu' than an ICU nurse. Makes me think if I did rock up at a fever clinic with symptoms they'd hand me twoo paracetamol and tell me to get some rest. I can do that for free at home! I was hospitalized in January with pneumonia. (the same time US patient zero entered another hospital.) I was on droplet protocols - full face mask, gloves, gown required by all hospital personal who entered my room. I had one nurse - who was quite blasé about it.
