It's offical, yall. By the end of the day, we'll have surpassed Italy and China as the global leader in confirmed active Coronavirus cases.
...and we're still scrambling for a unified, nationwide response. Only 5 states have enacted a mandatory stay-at-home order thus far.

Of course and I've said "
DEADLY version" not by chance.
The pneumonia is not even present under 20.
In *infected* persons.
On Tuesday, we had our first child death in the US. It was in Los Angeles, and the individual's identity wasn't revealed, but he or she was under 18 and had no pre-existing conditions or known risk factors. IIRC, China also reported a teenager and a baby dying from the disease.

This. Even if the odds are in your favor, there's still a chance it could kill you. Treat it accordingly.
Not a single chance under 20, not a single chance under 30 if not immunocompromised/with a severe clinical condition BEFORE.
And this is NOT by chance. It's impossible.

*no pre-existing conditions*
KNOWN conditions please.
I discovered only @22 that I have only 1 kidney and I passed my first years in and out of hospitals.
Literally in and out and no one EVER thought about this.
And you know, SARS2 loves kidney tissue.
It's not a lung-specific infection.

(
https://www.lavanguardia.com/internacional/20200326/48107434932/coronavirus-francia-ancianos-adolescente-paris.html) A 16 year old girl has died of Coronavirus in Paris.
My Spanish is spotty as hell, but I think it says that it's currently unknown if other underlying conditions helped contribute to her death.
Some people are safer than others, but no one is totally safe from this. Stay the fuck indoors.

News breaking now is that a 17-year old from New Orleans died today. No word on existing conditions yet.
There was also a 21-year old English girl who died the other day, previously in good health with no known health issues.
There's nothing magic that happens to one's body at age 20. Low risk doesn't mean no risk.

Not the age of course, but the drugs you take or the inflammation regulation/expression.
Of course there's no "0 risk" but
we got 8.165 death and no one in the age group where the socialization is on top of the priorities.
Isn't it strange for an ubercontagious disease?
I mean ZERO here in Italy.

Okay then. Apparently the Coronavirus map is lagging a bit. We're not soon to be first in coronavirus cases, (
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/26/world/coronavirus-news.html?fbclid=IwAR0MYm-xKfclg9OuMiPvfSaSJjOpdIF4JKHlOfRL1ZgTJfbE92jd9HgfeMM) we ARE No.1
I hate to sound like an alarmist here, but since this spread through the country so quickly relative to everywhere else, we're probably gonna get smacked with this 10x as hard as people start dying seemingly all at once, rather than stretched out slowly over an extended period of time. In two weeks, we've surpassed the number China has been building up to for three months now, what took Italy nearly a full month to achieve.
And since it's still actively spreading here, well, I think we're about to become the world model for the worst case scenario.
I hope I'm being overly dramatic here, but this doesn't look good.
