- for his defense, lots of people were thinking the same at first... its dated from march 6th. Things changed pretty quicklyBennn
- Bennn, that only proves that lots of people are dumb.********
- why?Bennn
- (If real) he posted that while Iran and Italy were announcing their deaths were nearing 200 with thousands of cases.i_monk
- The more I hear him speak the more I realize that he’s gotten to where he is through dumb luck, not once in his awkward talks has he said anything remotely geni_niko
- "panic" is dumb no matter what, so he's partially right even still.ben_
- Sure if by panic he means beating people up over toilet paper at walmart_niko

I have an apointment with my Doctor tomorrow, they called me to tell me to stay at home, the Doctor will call me... i cant go to their office. Its gonna be very weird talking to my Doc on the phone.
- My wife has transferred most of her patients to phone calls, she was getting tons of no-shows anyways.zarkonite
- doctors will be replaced by AI in the near future and we'll all be just "talking on the phone" to the algorithmKrassy
- lol if doctors will be replaced by AI we’re proper fucked. I only know how to save files.MrT
- AI will be able to determine much more accurate diagnosis and make better recommendations. So no, not proper fucked but on the contrary ;-)Krassy
- You're wrong, most doctors' visits are about calming the patient down. It's not some technical troubleshooting job. Ai will be an assistant to the Dr at best.zarkonite

''People with blood type A may be more vulnerable to Coronavirus - Research in Wuhan and Shenzhen indicates patients with the blood group had higher rate of infection and tended to get more severe symptoms.. Those with type O ‘had a significantly lower risk for the infectious disease.’''

- Cleveland Clinic developed a COVID-19 test that gives results in hours, not days.
- Good news from South Korea, where the number of new cases is declining.
- Italy is hit hard, experts say, only because they have the oldest population in Europe.

- The first team of doctors that will develop a vaccine = Nobel prize guaranteedgrafician

- yep, lots of good news. not quite right (but to be expected of headlines)kingsteven
- china closed the last coronavirus hospital in wuhan, apple is *planning* opening its retail stores next weekkingsteven
- A company spokesman confirmed to Reuters that the stores will reopen Friday. Some had been closed in early February as a precaution against the coronavirus.sted
- I am incredibly reluctant to believe anything out of China - a communist country notorious for tight control of propaganda internally and externally.mg33
- hah mg, even the treatment plans that mean you're far less likely to die from this today than 1 month ago?kingsteven
- even when it turns out (for all the gesturing at the time) their reporting of cases was MORE accurate than any other country has managed with weeks to prepare?kingsteven
- i would believe news from china before the US media any fucking daykingsteven
- carefully with such news.
china is in deep shit with it's rhetoric regarding the origins of the virus.sted - china's numbers are suspect. exponential growth never flat-lines how they're showing.dorf

Another source for the blood type thing :
''Relationship between the ABO Blood Group and the COVID-19 Susceptibility''
- Reading the data, I would think the real story here is that the AB Blood type shows the most resistance - only 10%Gnash
- But, that Is still consistano with blood type distribution so the numbers are kinda meaningless without that metricGnash
- you mean least resistance?grafician
- No, most. Only 10% of those infected had ABGnash

Canada has 37M of population
USA has 327M of populationBoth have made +/-10,000 tests yet.
