everyone in china wears masks to this day, wonder when the USA citizens will do the same?

italy is at 9% death rate, thats scary, not to mention that does not include people who have died before testing so its "official".
also, then figure how many people are serious enough to need hospital attention (if avail) even if they finally recover.
baffling numbers.
right now, the CDC stated in the USA, people ages 24 to 54 , 40% are ill enough to need hospital attention.
That is much higher than what was led to initially believe.
Quoted from Edenecho:Ive been hearing alot that masks only really helps if those infected are wearing them, and not really making much of a difference for those not infected yet.
One of the points was also that non-infected people are more prone to touching their facial area because they are wearing masks.
if that were true no people acting as testers, doctors, nurses would wear a mask ever. Think about what you are saying. of course they protect you. Droppings are what get into your mouth, nose from people nearby. A mask stops that.
Quoted from Zablon:The more we learn, the more I think it was here longer than we thought, before Wuhan became widely known. I am really beginning to think both of us had it in early Feb. I had the mild symptoms that lasted a few days, and the wife had it bad, could barely breath, was wheezing, couldn't get her to go to the doctor...lasted for 2-3 weeks. I was convinced we did not have the same thing, even then. Of course we just assumed she had the flu and I a cold..and maybe it was. My grandmother said she got something bad recently, and they said it wasn't flu but they didn't know what it was (didn't test her for corona). Who knows...
also, when people die from it BEFORE they are tested, those numbers are NOT included in the covid-19 death toll. So, it goes both ways.
there are X amount of people in the USA and only X amount have it and only X amount have died.
None of this matters until its peaked, slowed down and near the end of this "phase". In the beginning when aids was new, yep, there were 300 million in the USA and only 1 person got aids, then 2, then 100, then 1000. Beginning numbers don't matter, END numbers do.
Each of the past few days the deaths per day keep growing and growing more than any prior day over the past month. Follow the graphs.
Also, of the people who are recovered, This does not mean necessarily that they are "perfect" recovered. Read up on it and how many dysfunctions many will have to live with.
In final, Do not forgot about how many people have had it and have "recovered" that still needed hospital treatment.
Is there a graph for that? Just because you don't see them in the death toll does not equate to they were not hospitalized.
That onslaught push of overwhelming hospital isolated stays with equipment that is scarce is the disaster ingredient in this virus.
