No one is going to protect you. Information is power.

BTW ,... by next week NYC will have over 100k confirmed cases... meaning it likely has 50k-100k at the moment.
How do I know this? Well the confirmed cases have doubled aprox every 3 days. 44k today.. 3 days 88k and mid-late next week over 100k confirmed cases.

Now remember confirmed cases only go up because testing is more available.
That number is not the that actual number of people sick.

The worst thing you can do right now is travel anywhere, even cross county lines.
This. The few cases that were reported mid-month in Upstate NY were attributed to New Orleans which is now seeing a similar rise in confirmed cases as NYC, likely because of Mardi Gras celebrations. Also, apparently there's a good chance this whole thing worsens in autumn/winter after lessening over the summer months. Would not plan on travelling to see relatives for Thanksgiving.

Not sure where you're going with your sentiment, I feel like you specifically can express both sides at the same time so I'm just wondering.

Assuming he meant educated, as that was the only word quoted above in bold. Not bothering to spell correctly or finish the thought was part of the troll attempt, underscoring the need for an education.

"you still speak in riddles."
"What? In riddles?" said Gandalf. "No! For I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations needed by the young are wearying.”

I checked out the latest numbers and we have 640,589 confirmed and 29,848 fatalities worldwide and for the US it's 112,468 and 1,841.

The influenza kills around 30k in the US and 300-600k worldwide on the regular.

So we're roughly at 1/15th the regular flu.

I mean roughly, cause it's probably close to 1/10th because many countries are just totally lying about their numbers, so the official numbers are a big undercount imo.

The current clusters are estimated to peak in two weeks, but other clusters are just starting to become active hello New Orleans so we're going to have this rolling basis for a while. I mean this is typical of the regular influenza spread so we shouldn't assume too much difference. What I'm saying is the numbers are going to continue to pile up. I'm trying to figure out if we're going to match the influenza numbers this year. At first I didn't think so. Now I'm not so sure.
