I hope that everyone is doing their best to stay safe. I will not post a lot about this but it’s important take this seriously. Dr. Fauci, said that typically actually results fall somewhere in the middle, but some models estimate up to 1 million deaths related to this outbreak . He estimates 200k (still a scary number) We have to do our best to keep the numbers down. So far, our mortality rate has been low (compared to some countries) but if 100 million (about 30 percent of the US population) people get it we are in trouble.
Flattening the curve buys time for supplies such as PPE and medical equipment. It buys time for hospitals, local, state, and federal health systems to create plans on how to handle influx of patients , it could buy time for treatment (12-18 months) . Think about the long haul, focus on your physical and mental health, while also maintaining social distancing. Check on your friends and love ones. Be safe, stay informed but not overall informed! My goal is not to scare people but help message the seriousness of what’s happening. We will have to work together and support one another. Here is interview from Dr. Fauci
