It's somewhat disingenuous comparison to compare the impact of C19 after it has been in the states for only a couple of weeks to H1N1, which obviously was around for much longer.
I also wonder about the comparative difficulty between successfully diagnosing cases of C19 compared to C19. Anecdotaly I remember panic surrounding SARS, swine flu and bird flu. It has always confused me, deadly respiratory diseases doing the rounds occasionally just seems like a fact of life. Gotta practice good hygiene, minimise excessive physical contact and keep the larder stocked routinely. | ||

Italy is a ~in real time~ example of what the scientists are freaking out about. Its 20% +/- healthy patients needing ventilation to beat this. We do not have the physical space for that many people if everyone gets this in the same time period. People are going to die just from the lack of care who would have survived if a bed had been available. | ||||

The outbreak here in the US has just started. It's interesting to look back and see all the backlash China faced for misrepresenting the true scope of the COVID outbreak in Wuhan meanwhile this is PRECISELY what the Trump Administration and the CDC are now doing in the US. | |||

Also, all hospitals around here (upstate NY) are now in full lockdown. All entrances but one are locked and barred, and entrance through the open one requires temperature and symptom checks.
35 years old and I grew up in this area - never seen anything like it - not even on 9/11! | ||

That's why there is the big push, not to stop people from getting it, but stop them from getting it all at once. "Medcram" youtube channel lectures been doing a fantastic, fact based, short and sweet break down since it started in china back in Jan. | |||
