Unfortunately as regionals we are indirectly responsible for transmitting this to every pudunk city in America from our hubs.. of which the local hospital had maybe 1 or 4 ICU beds and 1 or 2 ventilators. Many hospitals are at or above capacity and it's just the beginning
Current numbers world wide are 4 percent mortality. Allot of the optimistic numbers came from south Korea... south Korea has an amazing healthcare system, great public health policy and early intervention. They traced their spread, the church group, and isolated very quickly.
Stay safe.. care for your family, care for your neighbor.. we have a rough 6 months ahead of us.
You don’t know you transported it. You certainly didn’t know early on. Now we are transporting help. Don’t guilt yourself.
