IMPORTANT:

This is being linked to taking anti-inflammatories (brufen, voltarol, naproxen etc) for pains or high temperature. Take paracetamol or similar only.

The four younger people in ICU Cork who are in a serious condition had taken anti-inflammatories. Seems the Ireland, UK and French governments are all in agreement on this.
Interesting. Just a few days back the Head of Medical University of Vienna denied any effect Ibuprofen allegedly has.

Maybe we shall wait for bigger numbers. Four people and the most used painkiller. Sounds a bit like 'cum hoc ergo propter hoc'

    That’s so weird. What is the science behind that?

    "The Robert Koch Institute has changed the risk assessment for Germany. "As of today, it has changed to high." said RKI CEO Lothar Wieler.

    "The reason is the dynamics of the pandemic. There are more alarm signals even from well-equipped clinics. The number of serious illnesses is increasing."


    "We expect all hospitals to at least double their intensive care capacity"

    According to the RKI, the number of confirmed Corona cases in Germany was 6012 as of Monday evening – more than 1100 more than the previous day."


    Also said he thinks it could last 2 years, with the safety measures staying more or less as they are now :scared:

    "Half Of America Will Get Sick": Here Is What Goldman Sachs Told 1,500 Clients In Its Emergency Sunday Conference Call

    That last bullet is clearly a lie. Don't believe that one. Others may be lies, too.
    Not sure if that's more of a forecast or more of a desperate sales pitch.

    For disease specific numbers, ratios and forecasts, I'd only pay attn to health experts. As for economy, it'll get worse and then recover, but when is anyone's guess.

    luckly I thought it was a weird number

    Still I'm not optimistic that USA govt will do anything for those people if they're in need
    You thought 50m of 327m people in the US are homeless?
