Hi pal trust all ok up there in the frozen north lol. Being very lazy down here sunbathing out on the lawn with a ice cold lager in hand. I know it's a hard life but someone has to do it. Think today may be the last for a few days as Sunday they say is going downhill a bit but no doubt will pick up soon after. We skyped our youngest grandaughter the other day don't think she knew what was happening first of all but soon started waving frantically lol. You keep safe and enjoy this lovely weather eh 👍 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If enough people can be found to install this app, this could be an essential part of the solution. However, it is also likely that large-scale events will no longer be possible for a much longer period of time.

As of 5.56 PM Eastern time today, 22.6% of those infected worldwide, have recovered. That number falls to 5.5% recovered cases in the US. The worldwide death rate is 6.1%. In the US, that's 3.9%, assuming the death toll is accurate. I have my doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just read an article by CCN posted on MSN that claims just smoking a little pot causes complications with the coronavirus. But when the governors closed down businesses in their states almost everyone of them allowed pot shops to stay open as an essential business. Smoking Helps Open Gateway to Coronavirus Infection, Study Shows COPD patients are also at higher risk. However, weed has been used medicinally by a lot of people for a long time. And, it's been shown to work. That may be why the shops were left open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust the U.S. death rate figure much more than I trust the world death rate figure. Also, what is not figured into the death rate and recovery rate is how many people were infected but only had minor symptoms so they were never tested. For the most part in the U.S. only people who show symptoms have been tested. Just recently have we started widespread testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I see it, if you are infected eventually you either recover or you die. If the death rate is 3.9% and the recovery rate is only 5.5% does that mean we are waiting to see if 90.6% of all the infected people in the U.S. are going to recover or die? At this point I don't see the 5.5% recovery rate as being very meaningful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
