It appears that doctors and nurses have little protection even in terms of basics like masks and gloves.

[quote]“When we already knew that the virus was circulating in hospitals, we were still being told that the usage of protective gear should be limited to specific circumstances,” said Juanjo Menéndez, the communications director of SATSE Madrid, a nurses’ union. “It’s the kind of basic error that a student learns to avoid in the first year of medical school.”/quote]

This may be a trend... But let's dig.

[quote]More infections among medical staff are still likely, he added, because of fatigue and a lack of protective gear./quote]

Another reason I have noted of significance is that Covid can manifest with symptoms not listed as yet, like gastrointestinal problems.

We should say all symptoms are first Covid, or Covid and another disease.

We can do something about fatigue: Let's support the doctors and govt by taking drastic and preemptive action. If we can cut the rate of transmission, we save a doctor's life. We save many more patients who are likely to be left unattended.

The govt has shown goodwill by supporting us. Let the citizen do something in return. We don't have to be told by MOH what to do. Initiative is seized not granted.

We also need to think hard about supplies, equipment and ways of/for improvisation. I have designed some treatments based on building up patient immunity, but there are no trials, though the methods are scalable. And we may get equipment and and non front line personnel easily.

We have a strategic context, we have a will and a way out. We can visualize the battlefield, we have plenty of intel coming in. It's a tough war, but I am reasonably optimistic.

Early testing which is key in beginning treatment and isolation. Plus the testing companies are based there, Siemens and Draeger are German companies so they have the capacity advantage.

1st US death caused by coronavirus was reported a month ago now the number is +2000 they are now projecting 100,000 to 200,000

The dire prediction came from Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, speaking on CNN's “State of the Union.” As of Sunday morning, the U.S. had about 125,000 infections and 2,200 deaths.

China is somehow responsible for the escalation of this situation for hiding very iportant information on the seriousness of this virus. Look at it thisway.. when you suspect you have this virus you are moraly supposed to self isolate. The same as any nation. China was the first nation to notice the grave characteristics of this virus and instead of warning other nations and self isolate itself by locking its borders air sea and land. They went ahead and tried to cover things. Now they are boasting of how they have defeated the virus and are now almost closing their borders for "fear" of this virus 're entering their teritory.
Deep down in the hearts of this western nations now view China as a pariah state.
This might be the beginning of the end of the mighty China.
