    It's interesting to go back and read the posts from the Swine Flu thread from 2009...

    H1N1 "Swine" Flu...

    Good opinions not political.

    I truly wish that this was a valid comparison, but sadly I do not think that it is. The death toll in Italy just topped 10,000... Don’t underestimate this monster, this is different...

    Older population eating tons of carbs is a recipe for disaster. And that goes for any virus.

    "We estimated excess deaths of 7,027, 20,259, 15,801 and 24,981 attributable to influenza epidemics in the 2013/14, 2014/15, 2015/16 and 2016/17, respectively, using the Goldstein index. The average annual mortality excess rate per 100,000 ranged from 11.6 to 41.2 with most of the influenza-associated deaths per year registered among the elderly. However children less than 5 years old also reported a relevant influenza attributable excess death rate in the 2014/15 and 2016/17 seasons (1.05/100,000 and 1.54/100,000 respectively)."

    Progress hopefully.

    The FDA has approved emergency use of a new coronavirus test that delivers positive results in 5 minutes and negative results in 13

    That was in a paper I read a couple of days ago about Italy; and also part of the daily briefings I get from Dr. John Campbell on Youtube. Campbell is a U.K. Nursing instructor who does a daily world-wide report on new data, who is trying what to fight the virus, and what seems to be working and what is not. I highly recommend subscribing to his YouTube channel and spending 20 minutes a day listening to his daily reports.

    Here is today’s:

    So from that site, here is the graph
    gr1.jpg
    "Total number of specimens, number of positive specimens for influenza and ILI cases (per 1,000 per inhabitants) by week and season. Italy, 2013/14, 2014/15, 2015/16 and 2016/17 season."

    Few things to get from this. One, there are more influenza like illnesses that did NOT test positive for influenza, than there are that tested positive. Coronavirus would actually be classified as an ILI. Two, these numbers are cases in a week; Notice it peaks at 1600 cases in a week. Coronavirus is doing 6000+ a DAY in Italy.

    We had 19.4K new cases in the US yesterday, and on pace to surpass that today. # of new cases per day is doubling every 3-5 days. Source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

    Fully aware. I posted the worldometer site to this thread over a month ago. I've been following this stuff since mid January, checking several websites several times a day. But the post I responded to was talking about Italy.
