Many experts believe that the United States is just 10 days behind the level of severity of the pandemic in Italy. We are at a crucial inflection point, according to the surgeon general, Dr. Jerome Adams, and the time to prepare for what’s coming is now.


“This has been a humbling experience,” Parenti said. “But the cool thing about mistakes is that you can learn from other people’s—so learn from ours and don’t underestimate this.”


By Sunday, 24,747 cases had been diagnosed in Italy, up from 21,157 on Saturday—a record-breaking single-day increase. The country also reported 368 new fatalities, bringing the death toll to 1,809 nationwide.

Yes. It is that bad
That means the Gaboim of 770 shouldn't be coming to 770. Now they have a justification for being MIA.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

This is how they are performing tests in the US.
Short sleeves and no eye protection. One cough and goodnight.

Lack of PPE is not an excuse at all. Full hazmat suits are readily available and so are goggles and long sleeved shirts.

problem is, they need to change between every suspected patient. and thats very very difficult.

You think it helps that she changes her short sleeve t shirt between patients?
I’d be surprised if they didn’t wipe off the swab and reuse it.

I saw WA like NYC as well. I wouldn’t be shocked if it was widespread.

The City and State are to blame for not getting testing readily available a week ago.
