I don't know, but in California alone the governor publicly predicted yesterday that 25.5 million residents will be infected in coming weeks. Do the math on a 1% death rate. If you aren't hunkering down at this time, please do.
Be safe. Stay home. Exercise outdoors with MINIMAL 6 feet between you and others.

I am an ER nurse in Denver. The Denver ER's are full of otherwise young people in there 30-40s. Yes, we have older people as well but almost equal numbers of younger folks in the ICU on ventilators. Will the younger people die? Probably not but it would surely be horrible to be on a ventilator while sedated (You have to be sedated to be on one). Take care of yourself people wash your hands and stay at home. Most hospitals are not even releasing the numbers that they are confirming on COVID to prevent further hysteria and to make matters worse its estimated one in 30 people who have COVID currently are even tested as the testing kits are few and far between.
NYC looks even worse. This from an article today in WSJ from reporters that are actually there:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/coronavirus-cases-strain-new-york-city-hospitals-were-getting-pounded-11584719908Coronavirus Cases Strain New York City Hospitals: ‘We’re Getting Pounded’
Swiftly rising number of patients, sooner than expected, leads to supply shortages and concern about what is to come
New York City hospitals are already straining under the onslaught of novel coronavirus cases, even as state officials say the real peak of the outbreak is nearly a month and a half away.
Doctors at the largest public hospital in New York say equipment shortages have resulted in them wearing the same masks for as long as a week. Emergency-room physicians at another hospital are having to reuse gowns. Some large hospitals already have exceeded the capacity of their intensive-care units.
At least one city hospital, faced with dwindling supply of ventilators amid the surge of coronavirus patients, had to seek more from a sister hospital.
“We’re getting pounded,” said Mangala Narasimhan, a doctor at the Long Island Jewish Medical Center, part of Northwell Health, the largest hospital system in New York. “I’ve been in ICU care for 15 years, and this is the worst I have ever seen things.”
...
With the onslaught has come a surprise for many health-care workers: Far more young people than they expected are falling very ill. According to data published Friday morning by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, 56% of confirmed cases of coronavirus in the city at the time involved patients under the age of 50.
At the Long Island Jewish Medical Center in Queens, several coronavirus patients under 40, including a few in their 20s, were on ventilators in the intensive-care unit as of Thursday. All were healthy before getting the virus, said Dr. Narasimhan.
Yet, you have random people on this board trying to tell healthcare workers it’s no so bad. We are living it and seeing it first hand. Don’t lecture us on the numbers.

Ebonics has a name as well, but that still doesn't make it proper English. Do you even have a MD/PhD, Mr. Wang? Are you even Asian, or do you just enjoy writing as an English slang for penis?
It's standard English and is used by many of the best writers. It's formal enough for published SCOTUS opinions.
US is 2 weeks behind Italy. Italy has 4000 deaths of a population of 60m. California has a population of 40m which would would put the deaths below 3000 two weeks from now if it tracks Italy.
Contribute something of substance or stop posting. Your insults are the last thing we need here now. REPORTED.

I work in a hospital as well. Sh!t's getting serious, and we've only just begun. Follow the advice of public health officials and don't be the retard who ruins it for many others.
A little perspective please. Research who and what happened at Bill Gates’ event 201 six weeks before this whole plandemic started. Read this:

And watch this:

And what exactly is your point?
Estimated deaths in USA? I am guessing 2 million
How in the F is running road or trail a threat to anybody?
Over 3,600 healthcare professionals in Italy have contracted the virus, most of them those nurses you don’t like, JesseIsGarbage.
3,400 healthcare workers were infected in China, 13 deaths.

lol. Sure. If that is true, that would be beyond stupid. Don't let the public know something is more serious than they realize. Just so they don't get scared. Instead rely on "nurses" leaking the info so they know the truth.
Actually, hospitals aren’t being very forthcoming. Several articles point out that they don’t have adequate protection for their own staff, based on complaints from trade organizations.
Someone tell FatPolly to infiltrate those "Globalist" meetings as a true reporter would.
Ten days ago 8 people in the entire usa were tested. Fact. The cdc did a press conference and, when asked, had no idea how many people were bring tested or had died. Fact. If this is a dress rehearsal for a future virus like the ww1 flu then we have failed miserably.
Dr. Anthony Fauci can say the truth, but in a way not to offend trump. It is of little value what Fauci says when trump stand next to Fauci and tells lies. Fauci was saying for three or so weeks, hygiene and social distance. Two or three weeks ago, trump was saying we have few to almost no deaths. Limbaugh and Hannity a couple of weeks ago were saying this is a Democrat hoax. Bars, strip clubs, pubs and night clubs were just closed down in U.S. Wednesday night. Republicans are working on bailing out airline industry. Democrats are working on getting $1000 checks to out of work barmaids. Neither Democrats or Republicans are 100% focused on getting medical supplies to medical personnel. Fifty states are competing against each other to obtain necessary medical equipment and medical supplies. trump could declare Martial Law and take charge. Trump is just trying to take charge of financial markets. This is going to get bad. We went from about 12 dead two weeks ago to about 250 dead as I type. Unless trump declares Martial Law and takes charge, U.S. will lose 100s daily.
