Is anyone else scared the Corona Virus will turn into a pandemic?
It already is!!!
This is just the first wave!
The second wave next fall will tell the tell!!!
Just research the 1918 Pandemic it have to work full waves of infection, the second wave killed the most!!!
Remember there were only 1.5 Billion individuals on the planet then, it took less than 14 months to spread around this planet!!!
It has already spread around the planet, now with 7.88 Billion individuals on the planet now!!!
It is spread in close proximity of others, by minuscule water droplets spew by everyone!!!
Hence any one can have and not show any signs!!!
It is best to stay away from others if possible!!!
Do not touch your face with your hands or anyone else’s!,,
Soap and water hand washing helps!!!
Not if people follow good hygiene practices.
Washing hands on a regular basis in warm soapy
water for at least 20s.
Common household cleaning products can also kill the virus so if you have good personal and domestic
cleaning practices you reduce the risk.
This also includes working conditions.
People need remind of this.
Also it is not a airborne virus it is spread through
direct contact so no needy for the face mask it is far far more better to follow the hygiene basics mentioned above
It's had a quick trajectory over the last few weeks, so that's slightly worrying, but it still has about a 97.8% survival rate, and those most at risk are those with compromised immune systems. While I'm concerned for anyone who contracts the disease, and my sympathies go out to anyone who's lost a loved one to it, I'm not currently panicking about the threat.
It's more than slightly worrying at this point: ""The spread of the coronavirus outbreak in the US could push the healthcare system to its limits. In a February webinar presentation hosted by the American Hospital Association, an expert laid out "best guess" estimates about how many Americans could be impacted. He projected that there could be as many as 96 million cases in the US, 4.8 million hospitalizations, and 480,000 deaths associated with the novel coronavirus."
@MissKathleen This isn't a flu, it's a completely new disease that no one has any immunity to. Not sure why people keep bringing up the flu, it's not really relevant.
Well, I'm from Washington State. And I'm 65 with respiratory problems and heart failure.
Sooo,,,,,,,,I'm screwed if I get it.
It has reached Spartanburg, SC recently. I'm a tad worried.
Yes, thirty out fifty states too!!!
