      I believe without the lockdown most of us are in, the RO is 3 for covid-19. So for every person infected they are likely to infect 3 more. Its less deadly than others but because its so contagious it will still kill many people as it transmits far more easily than other comparable viruses like the flu. Having a 14 day incubation period is part of it.

      Um, no. Ebola in 2019 didn't turn into a pandemic because Congolese were open and transparent, allowing MSF and WHO in to that damn war one to squash its spread. Chinese SARS and Corona19 spread due a total lack of transparency. The problem is that we shouldn't stay perpetually open borders / open for business with any authoritarian, communist and therefore opaque nations.

      @Myhusbandisanerd 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ezekielbrockmann114 Wrong. There are some inherent disease differences. Ebola is not airborne, it has a different latency period, and there were cultural factors that made the disease spread the way it did in the Congo. Respiratory diseases, particularly those that cause asymptomatic infection are different and harder to identify. Not to mention, our public health system has been chronically underfunded in the United States. Border Closures are difficult policy decisions, they have obvious economic impacts that will be assessed LONNNNGGG after COVID is gone.

    What she does not touch on is knock on effect of a serious pandemic from associated deaths.
    Although there may not be a 100% end to Humankind, at what point is there such an effect on civilisation that it effectively means an end to civilisation.
    At what point are enough people out of action with a disease, or have died from a disease, that the infrastructure of society breaks down causing an avalanche of associated mortality.
    Our modern civilisation hangs on a knife edge. It is heavily dependant on a huge infrastructure of support to maintain the lifestyles of people who would not necessarily be able to support themselves without that infrastructure.
    The maintenance of life rests on three main supports. We must have enough nutritious food, enough drinkable water, and shelter to protect us from the elements.
    So what happens when a serious pandemic knocks out so many farmers. transport workers, communication workers, water industry workers, health workers, local government leaders etc that these industries are no longer able to function at a meaningful level? At what point do associated deaths resulting from the loss of these support facilities become so high that, added to the disease mortality, the continuation of the population becomes unsustainable? Yes, Humanity may survive, but at what level of civilisation? And beyond that, All animal populations have a number limit beyond which the continuation of the species is unsustainable. What is ours?

    So it seems to me from watching this that the thing we most urgently need to establish about COVID 19 is what she is calling the "reproduction number". Right now we don't have any info at all on how many people an infected person infects. Without that number, you can't do the rest of the modeling that she presents regarding the likely progress of the infection. I've been wondering about this myself. Why isn't there more tracing of how people got infected so we can figure out the reproduction number?

    There are other factors epidemiologists need to consider other than disease transmission when dealing with an epidemic/pandemic. Sociologists and economists need to be consulted also. With COVID we are so focused on preventing every possible infectious death that we have ignored deaths and other health complications due to economic devastation from complete isolation.

    But, for sure an epidemic can become a virtual "zombie" epidemic. It needs to be considered, that infections and concomitant social changes (such as economic and social breakdown, mental crises, job losses, etc.) will bring about indirect effects such as increased violence, crime, poverty, malice, negligence and accidents, which may increase the R artificially, and certainly will increase the death rates.

      It is sad to see nurses sacrificing time with their own families to take care of someone who isn't allowed to be with their family.... Something doesn't seem right.
      If families were allowed to take care of their sick loved ones, hospitals would be less crowded & I believe more people would recover.
      When you are sick, the hand & voice of a loved one is much more powerful than the hand & voice of various Nursing staff throughout the day.
      I support nurses - and - believe that it would be more beneficial for them & their continued health to find more time with their loved ones as well.
