15 DAYS TO SLOW THE SPREAD



•Listen and follow the directions of your STATE AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES

•IF YOU FEEL SICK, stay at home. Do not go to work. Contact a medical provider.

•IF YOUR CHILDREN ARE SICK, keep them at home. Do not send them to school. Contact your medical provider.

•IF SOMEONE IN YOUR HOUSEHOLD HAS TESTED POSITIVE for the coronavirus, keep the entire household at home. Do not go to work. Do not go to school. Contact your medical provider

•IF YOU’RE AN OLDER PERSON, stay at home and away from other people.

•IF YOU ARE A PERSON WITH A SERIOUS UNDERLYING HEALTH CONDITION that can put you at increased risk (for example a condition that impairs your lung or heart function or weakens your immune system), stay home and away from other people.



These are all sensible recommendations and should be followed.



Despite all the self-congratulation and praise for public-private partnerships we do not have adequate testing.

•Our office does not have testing kits.



They didn’t mention mortality rates:

•Worldwide mortality is currently between 4-8%

oOf the cases that have run their full course, mortality is 8%. When you include diagnosed cases that have not reached the peak of illness, it drops to 3.9%

•USA mortality

o4598 cases

o86 deaths

o1.9%

•World Health Organization estimates mortality at 3%.

•Comparison to other viral infections

o3%Covid-19

o9.6%SARS

o34% MERS

o0.02%Swine Flu

o<0.01% Seasonal Influenza





No one on the task force mentioned hospitalization rates.

•Gov. Cuomo reports a 17% hospitalization rate

•Angela Merkel estimates that 40-60% of Germans have been infected



Dr. Fauci said the task force did not give consideration to daycares in their analysis. This is a significant oversight. The next set of recommendations should include the closure of daycare facilities.


Welcome back - I think your medical background can be beneficial. Especially if your research helps others to better understand the facts.

I understand the frustration and the pressure can result in frayed nerves at times.
