- TBF to the US i've heard they've been doing this in the UK and Italy too.kingsteven
- simple way to save the protective gear, this way they don't have to trash the entire suitsted
- the most worrying thing here is that those are normal surgical masks, not n95kingsteven
- When does this negligence lead to a valid malpractice claim?!?whatthefunk
- maybe they are nurses who aren't dealing with active patients?sted

Similar to drivers, doctors and other medical professionals also owe a duty of care to their patients, to provide treatment that is in line with the “medical standard of care,” which is usually defined as the level and type of care that a reasonably competent and skilled health care professional, with a similar background and in the same medical community, would have provided under the circumstances that led to the alleged malpractice.
So, medical negligence occurs when a doctor, dentist, nurse, surgeon or any other medical professional performs their job in a way that deviates from this accepted medical standard of care. If a doctor provides treatment that is sub-standard in terms of accepted medical norms under the circumstances, then that doctor has failed to perform his or her duty, and is said to be negligent.
By the numbers: As of 2018, 85 publicly traded health care companies have amassed $47 billion of global profit on $545 billion of global revenue in the second quarter, according to company documents. It's disgusting and these healthcare providers need to be held accountable for their lack of preparedness.

i feel like we've hit that point in the movie when the 'officials' decide it's just easier to call in a tactical strike on New York.

Italy just passed 10K+ deaths. Today another near 900 dead.
- :(Ramanisky2
- What is going on over there! Is it old people with pre existing conditions. Is it lack of ventilators? This virus... is it highly lethal? or as bad as a cold?shapesalad
- ^mass chinese tourism in winter, many garment workers from wuhan/hubei, direct flights, lax hospital systems, elderly population with multiple existing diseases********
- Antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Viral infections, such as the corona virus, pave the way for secondary pneumonia, blood poisoning etc caused by bacteria.drgs
- In Italy there are no restrictions on antibiotics, so they have these strains of antibiotic-resistant super bacteria:

- @drgs i think the course of medication first-world countries took in the past decades made people more vulnerable against this pandemic.sted
- Many things have made us vulnerable to pandemics. Dense urban living, for one. Our cities are just massive petri dishes for whatever grotty pestilence ...Continuity
- ... is in circulation. The way we live, for another, withe whole 'living to work' thing. That grinds our immune systems down to a halt.Continuity
- with the*Continuity
- And, of course, in some third world countries, no guaranteed health care.Continuity
- But in Italy's case, I'm certain mass tourism has a lot to do with it. It made the petri dish a lot more crowded.Continuity

Wow. Fuck all these cunts.
If a regular person decided this, they'd be out on their ass so fast, it would make their head spin.

US Deaths:
The numbers at 9:00 am were at 1,606
The numbers at 3:00 pm are at 1,930
324 deaths in 6 hrs
- Where are you getting those times? Bear in mind that reports may be collected in hospitals and passed to a local DOH, etc before being passed up again.nb
- You'll get more reported deaths mid day than in the middle of the night. That's when people working with the numbers are at work.nb
- from 9:00am https://i.ibb.co/LkF…
The other was at 3:00 pm, same graphic on tv with 1930 deathsRamanisky2

This all sounds very familiar ......
————————————————Brazil’s polemicist president Jair Bolsonaro has sparked further outrage by insinuating that the number of coronavirus cases here is being inflated for political purposes and declaring: “Some people will die. I’m sorry. That’s life.”
Bolsonaro is facing furious criticism for his slaphappy handling of the coronavirus crisis, which he continues to dismiss as overblown and has called a media “trick”.
But on Friday afternoon — as the death toll here rose to 92, with 3,417 cases — he doubled down on his position telling Brazilian television he suspected those figures were being inflated by a political rival and denounced coronavirus “alarmism”.
Bolsonaro subsequently admitted lives would be lost but added: “That’s life.”
“You can’t shut down a car factory because people die in traffic accidents,” Bolsonaro said.- Sounds like a tiptop situation is about to unfold.PhanLo

"The big mistake in the U.S. and Europe, in my opinion, is that people aren’t wearing masks. This virus is transmitted by droplets and close contact. Droplets play a very important role—you’ve got to wear a mask, because when you speak, there are always droplets coming out of your mouth.
Many people have asymptomatic or presymptomatic infections. If they are wearing face masks, it can prevent droplets that carry the virus from escaping and infecting others."
https://www.sciencemag.org/news/…
Strange how this directly contradicts the advice of the U.S. government and WHO...but it seems they have now changed their official guidance.
- At this point the front-line needs the supplies first and it's really-really hard to accomplish that in this scale.sted
- I feel like the advice is misleading though...they told people it's not effective and only sick people should wear them.yuekit
- Leaving out the fact that around half of all people with the virus don't show any symptoms at all but still spread the disease, through droplets.yuekit
- if they cough
if they touch sourfaces
of if they touch others
that shite surgical mask keeps droplets in.sted - *surfacessted
- It's not foolproof but if everyone or almost everyone wears them, it will have a big effect.yuekit
- i'm all in to that it will.
its the supply chain from raw materials, to the logistics with high level qc what needs to cope with this insane worldwide demandsted - while the rest of the world is locked up and needs to stay calm and sane.sted
- No masks anywhere to buy.monospaced
- mask would help i am with you, but if they are rare, the hospital needs it first. countries shuld have more on stock.api
- You know what we need? TESTS. The majority of the population having no idea if they have it or not is insane.inteliboy
- If they say masks work and we all need to wear them, what you think happens? The entire supply is bought up, gone. Doctors, hospitals unable to get any.shapesalad
- And that would be in addition to the current situation were they don’t have any....shapesalad
- Not knowing is not the problem. Only go to get a test she you’re super sick. That’s the right thing to do. Getting a test just to make sure is a waste of a testmonospaced
- If there is a shortage of masks that's a separate problem. It's not an excuse to mislead people about what works.yuekit
- Also the shortage of masks and other supplies is an issue that governments should be urgently addressing. Why just throw up your hands about it?yuekit
- Masks are only a big deal in highly populated Central areas.... Like NYC... Most of us is different than hang other nations********
- Not super reliant on public transport is a big one too. It seems public transport is numero uno spreader********
- Should heavy density pops with large public transportation promote use of masks. For sure.********
- I can’t wear anything that I don’t have. I could build a mask from a tissue, but is anyone of you doing it?SimonFFM
- yeah you can wear anything...cowboy style.uan
- multiple layers of cloth will protect you. but will also stick in the fabrics (as in the masks), so you need to clean it, change it regularly.uan
- but it gives you a suplemental layer of protection wich can help getting the fear in check.uan

I don't understand, if no one is forced to pay rent, aren't a bunch of landlords going to be forced to sell buildings? Out on the streets? A lot of landlords are just people with an extra house or a few apartments. They're small business owners. Not saying they're the worst off in a crisis, but I dont understand why people think they should be a able to just not pay rent for months and expect that things will work out
- no. it's not 'right'. but it's not right to offer aid to the land owners and not the residents.MrAbominable
- The banks and the cities are deferring payments as well so that should help.zarkonite
- No mortgage payments either. All suspended. Landlords are fine.monospaced
