Coronavirus leathality
 


I think Bill posted here that he had heard someone say
that the coronavirus is 10 times more lethal than the
flu.

Bill said he had heard that but couldn't remember who said
it.

It was said today by Dr. Anthony Fauci, the head honcho of the
federal team monitoring the virus during a hearing before
the House Oversight and Reform Comittee. Dr. Fauci said,

“I mean people always say, 'Well, the flu does this, the flu does that,'”

“The flu has a mortality rate of 0.1 percent. This has a mortality rate
of 10 times that. That’s the reason I want to emphasize we have to stay
ahead of the game in preventing this,” he added.

Certainly sounds ominous.

To wit:

A Republican lawmaker’s attempt to downplay the threat posed by
coronavirus blew up in his face when a top government expert on
infectious diseases told him that the threat is very real.

During a House Oversight Committee hearing on the virus, Rep. Michael
Cloud (R-TX) tried to get Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, to say that the
media was overhyping the dangers posed by the coronavirus.

“I’d like to spend some time trying to clear the record… as we try to
find the proper balance between creating a positive, proactive response
to real threats, as opposed to instigating overreaction,” he said, and
then asked him to compare how the coronavirus compared to other past
infectious disease outbreaks such as SARS and H1N1.

Fauci responded by saying that people should take the virus very
seriously and that it should not be confused with the seasonal flu.

“The seasonal flu has a mortality of 0.1 percent,” he said. “The stated
mortality, overall, of this… is about three percent.”

He then added some caveats about the mortality rate data but said the
bottom line was coronavirus was at least “ten times more lethal than the
seasonal flu.”

“But less lethal than N1H1 (sic)?” Cloud asked.

“The 2009 pandemic of H1N1 was even less lethal than the regular
seasonal flu,” Fauci said.

I have realized that the potential of this
virus is likely to be more than the normal "flu" for a while
as more information has become available. You don't have to be a Dr. or
Rocket Scientist to figure it out.

But, what can really be done about it? Testing only confirms if you
are infected or not. The idea of isolating people via quarantine
isn't working. All it takes is one person who doesn't even
know they carry the virus to infect many, many more people.

I suspect we are going to have to do the best we can to avoid getting
it but the reality is ... it's going to have to "run it's course".

Most healthy people won't get sick but some older folks may
be affected or even die from it.

As of this writing:

The USA currently has 1,283 (up from 1,100 earlier today)
people known to have it.

37 have died and 15 have fully recovered.

Half of the deaths occurred in one nursing home.

Old sick people should be cleaning up their affairs.
Short SW Florida housing if you have any money in it.
29% of Lee County is over 65 and most own their home.
I think there are going to be a lot of old houses on the market if
this is as bad as they say it is.

Or not ;-)

There's certainly good reason for concern, especially since the
mortality rate for senior citizens is over 10%. I suspect that a fair
number of us fall into that category. My maternal grandmother used to
tell stories about the so called Spanish flu which hit in 1918. People
were dying so fast that they couldn't keep up with the burials.

Only 30? We have thousands who never migrate anymore around here. They
live at the small lake I live near and migrate to the local fields,

We have a gaggle of 30 or so that winter on the golf course. There's a
small lake on the course, so
the fairways around the lake get pretty well fertilized with goose ****.
They don't do much flying,
other than coming in and leaving again. They've pretty much departed the

bird flu **** is gone...for now.

Only 30? We have thousands who never migrate anymore around here. They
live at the small lake I live near and migrate to the local fields,
schools, golf courses to fertilize them.


This is just on the golf course. The schools, parks, etc, have thousands more.

We have a gaggle of 30 or so that winter on the golf course. There's a
small lake on the course, so
the fairways around the lake get pretty well fertilized with goose
****. They don't do much flying,
other than coming in and leaving again. They've pretty much departed
the area, so the fear of flying
bird flu **** is gone...for now.

Where I play it is Sandhill Cranes.

I've read that as winters have warmed up, the cranes are wintering more

I think you're right, but the ones that visit us leave every spring. Maybe it's
a different group each time. They do look alike though!


It may have helped that the lake at National Geo was heated. It was
part of their energy system.

I had one that was a single pump Crossman in .177 cal. It was rated at
1,200 to 1,400 FPS, depending on the type of pellets used.

When fired it was louder than the .22 cal Ruger 10/22 I had.

http://gfretwell.com/wildlife/Sandhill%20Crane.jpg

I've read that as winters have warmed up, the cranes are wintering more
northwards. You may be seeing fewer of them.

https://www.aldoleopold.org/post/wha...-10000-cranes/

I am not sure the ones who find a nice home, like a golf course,
really migrate. I know the Canada Geese that lived at National Geo in
Gaithersburg stayed in that lake year round.


I thought they had an extra goose hunting season in parts of the northeast
for the non migration birds.

Don't know what happened to this, but I hope it got adopted. We need to get rid
of a lot of those pests.

the fairways around the lake get pretty well fertilized with goose

other than coming in and leaving again. They've pretty much departed

I am not sure you could kill a goose with a pellet gun. It wouldn't

they were walking around.


Lots of powerful pellet guns these days. Close to a 22. And they stand
around enough to get head shots.

It's really too bad the geese cannot shoot back, though a goose flying

That depends on local laws (and interpretation) also but probably less

that they couldn't keep up with the burials.My advice is to get out on a
golf course.--Freedom Isn't Free!

And let the Canada geese bombard you with Corona virus? No way. If
your immune sysyem is compramised it's best to stay in the
cellar, like Fat Harry does, and take your chances with radon
gas.

I will admit to walking in a lot of goose **** on the course.

Wouldn?t that be bombarded with Bird Flu?

We have a gaggle of 30 or so that winter on the golf course. There's a
small lake on the course, so
the fairways around the lake get pretty well fertilized with goose
****. They don't do much flying,
other than coming in and leaving again. They've pretty much departed
the area, so the fear of flying
bird flu **** is gone...for now.

Where I play it is Sandhill Cranes.

I've read that as winters have warmed up, the cranes are wintering more
northwards. You may be seeing fewer of them.

I am not sure the ones who find a nice home, like a golf course,
really migrate. I know the Canada Geese that lived at National Geo in
Gaithersburg stayed in that lake year round.


I thought they had an extra goose hunting season in parts of the northeast
for the non migration birds.

Don't know what happened to this, but I hope it got adopted. We need to get rid
of a lot of those pests.

Times get tough, a pellet gun will feed the family a lot of goose. ;)

I am not sure you could kill a goose with a pellet gun. It wouldn't
penetrate the feathers on the body and a head shot would be tough if
they were walking around.


Lots of powerful pellet guns these days. Close to a 22. And they stand
around enough to get head shots.

Well, now that you mention it! Besides, most of the *******s will let you get
pretty close to them before walking away.

Golf ball missile?

I keep a 7-iron handy when walking by the *******s. Ganders can sometimes get
upset with folks bothering them.

I kind of remember an incident in the past where a golfer faced
criminal charges for whacking a goose on a golf course.

After a quick search of Google news, it looks like there have been
several criminal goose incidents with golfers although not the one I
sort of remember from the distant past:

Well, I wouldn't whack one unless I was being attacked. Gosh, I'm no goose
murderer!

Animal rights people are out of control. Like when they wanted to
prosecute the baseball player who killed a seagull who flew in to his relay
to 3rd base. I think that was in Toronto.

A friend living on one of the higher traffic roads in the area witnessed a car
hit a deer. The deer was wounded to the extent it could not stand. My friend, a
hunter in the past, slit the deer's throat so it would quickly die.

This was observed by a neighbor across the street from him who called the cops.
The neighbor made a cruelty to animals complaint, and my friend had to go to
court. The judge, apparently with a decent head on his shoulder, threw the case
out. It still cost my friend some bucks and time.

Unreal.
