老板马上要生孩子了,很怕仅有的两个手下双双倒下,我提议我和单调男轮流上班,避免互相传染。情况再坏下去就都在家上班。

美国的联邦政府阶层的公共卫生被川普和国会共和党破坏得很厉害,如果产生瘟疫,也会跟现在一样瘫痪无用,但传播的 pattern 会跟中国差别很大。第一是不太会有大批人群拥挤到医院门诊去测试而导致迅速大规模传播;第二人口密度低,公共交通普及程度低,也对于传播速度有影响。这是对病毒不利的因素。对病毒有利的因素是飞机乘客比中国多,很可能迅速传播到全国和全世界,而不太容易围追堵截。
在美国不可能实现象中国那样的强制封城,禁止居民离家买菜,禁止商家开门营业。实际上在大部分国家都无法实现完全禁止人民出家门的措施,当然需要自觉自愿喽。政府可以让学校停课,让甲级联赛关门踢,但是大妈要去街坊串门儿,政府真没权力资格拦着不让。
病毒不长眼,不懂政治,它的传播与政治体制之间的关系只是 interaction,却不能用来直接衡量制度优劣。如果有大规模疫情,可能是也可能不是体制的缺陷;如果疫情微弱,有可能是体制好,也可能是运气好。不过我倒是觉得,病毒暴露了中美两国很多政治上的近似之处,平时被大喇叭宣传遮盖了,得想想才看得出。
不过医学上并不会谈论啥啥流行都是某国的错,这个账没法算。有一些中国人也不需要被罪恶感驱使而传播“某病毒是美国制造”的谣言。It does not matter.
网上到处404本身是邪恶的现象,就算跟病毒无关,就算对控制疫情或许有微弱的好处,它仍然是邪恶的现象。这是我个人的看法。最近每天在亲属圈里看见很多谣言,有空就随手辟一下,没空就不理。消灭言论可以用于对谣言传播的控制,把人民关在家里严禁出门也许对防疫有点效果,但是 the cure is worse than the disease.

如果光看中文微信还以为意大利的封城跟中国一样呢,我还在等着看意大利人民在街道上溜达被红袖章殴打的视频咧。Schools and universities all over the country will remain closed until April 3, he said, but public transit will remain operational.

轻症上面已经有人分享了。重症住院是需要支持性治疗,不仅是观察。供氧,辅助呼吸,治疗并发各种器官损伤,治疗现存疾病。对病毒没有特效药不等于不治疗呀。不能在你和病毒斗的时候你先把自己搞死了。正是因为没有特效药这些支持治疗才特别耗费医疗资源。住院的平均要三周到六周恢复。而且需要住院的重症率是流感的十倍二十倍。武汉和北意大利已经证明了如果不能及时控制,也不能及时收治,没有任何医疗系统可以承受这样比平时高数十倍的负荷。因为平时不可能维持这样的冗余。一旦崩溃,医疗水平再高也没用。西雅图第一例的治疗堪称完美,养老院就是小型武汉。上面那篇文章列举了一个按需要入院人数和现今的医院床铺的数据比较,让我大约理解了一些,上面是小情还是谁也说过,这个病相当消耗医疗资源,大概相比流感而言,更大比例的人需要住院观察方能治愈恢复,这个才是可怕的地方吧。
Health Minister? 卫生部大臣?卫生部长?
跟患者同处一室,咳嗽打喷嚏的距离不远,是有可能被直接传染上的。普通口罩实际上是不能密封挡住这种喷射型的 aerosol 或 droplet 病毒传播的。但是大部分的传染仍然发生于触摸。患者需要戴口罩是因为可以挡住自己的唾液之类的喷射。If you are healthy, you only need to wear a mask if you are taking care of a person with suspected 2019-nCoV infection.
Wear a mask if you are coughing or sneezing.
Masks are effective only when used in combination with frequent hand-cleaning with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
个人觉得室内戴口罩用处不大。 除非是Knowing 说的那种乌泱泱的交易所的trading floor.
我去瞄了一眼,其实也不用我来评论,他自己讲的,下图是一星期的推算(BTW这图做的,连 x-axis 上的图标都没做好
按照最保守的病死率(CFR)1%来计算的话,美国现在死亡31人,确诊应该有3100.根据传播率R0=2来算,每六天翻倍的话,周末可以达到六千。然后如果回来看武汉最严峻的时刻,病死率是超过六的,意大利今天的病死率是6.2%。再看美国现在死亡绝大部分来自西雅图,那里的状况不可能是1%.哪怕上调到2%也会把所有的数字翻倍啊。所以周末达到八千是很可能的。当然美国现在没有测试盒。就跟武汉的一月底,Chernobyl刚爆炸时那个3。6伦琴的辐射读数一样,确诊数据存疑,可以关注一下死亡人数可能比确诊要靠谱。。。
Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar said Monday that over 1 million tests have been shipped and "are now out." Out where is not so clear. The American Hospital Association couldn't provide any information about the use of this test among its members.
https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DC ... V2019.aspxState health departments can run the test that the CDC has been sending out. Federal health officials said they sent out enough kits to run 75,000 samples — among an at-risk population that is in the tens of millions, if not larger. And because doctors may submit more than one sample per patient, 75,000 tests will cover far fewer people. The samples are swabs from the nose and mouth or, in some seriously ill patients, may be fluid from the lungs.
Commercial companies are now working to develop tests that are faster and less cumbersome to run.
今天纽约州正式宣布不再等候死猪联邦政府,而是自己找私营实验室进行病毒检验:Eighteen public health labs in California are testing for COVID-19. These labs include the California Department of Public Health's Laboratory in Richmond, Alameda, Contra Costa, Humboldt, Los Angeles, Monterey, Napa-Solano-Yolo-Marin (located in Solano), Orange, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Francisco, San Luis Obispo, Santa Clara, Shasta, Sonoma, Tulare and Ventura County public health laboratories. The Richmond Laboratory will provide diagnostic testing within a 48-hour turnaround time. More public health labs will soon be able to test for COVID-19.
武汉的情况我不敢说,但武汉以外,街上也鲜有红袖章吧。最严重的时候我所在的小区有发过所谓通行证,但从来没有执行过。这些需要警力,靠正常物业或者居委会,并不可能。 网上所流传的冲进人家管理的,肯定是极端情况。大部分还是正常人。Jun wrote: ↑2020-03-10 17:52意大利说是封了封了,跟封湖北能一样么?我深表怀疑,去搜了一下新闻看看意大利到底是怎么封的:

意大利北部最早被封锁的Bergamo医院主治医生自己也被感染了,而且每天都有医生护士被感染。他说:the worst thing about this virus is how it has been so concentrated in such a short time. We can put 100 patients on ventilators in a month, but not in a day. We can help, but the only way to stop this madness is for people to isolate.The UK government—Matt Hancock and Boris Johnson—claim they are following the science. But that is not true. The evidence is clear. We need urgent implementation of social distancing and closure policies. The government is playing roulette with the public. This is a major error.
今天正好看了一篇韩国疫情应对经验的英文报道,作者是一个在韩国本地做专家志愿者的生物学教授。他总结韩国这次的疫情应对归功于在非典和MERS之后大力发展的标准应对程序,一共五步:强力透明的信息,大规模的测试,感染者隔离,病人及时治疗,污染环境的消毒。
这五步看似简单,很多国家却难以及时有效地推行。韩国老龄化这么严重的国家,死亡率却很低,也没有大规模封城之类的举措,韩国模式是不是更值得其他国家借鉴?
比较有意思的是作者认为这次疫情应对中最糟糕的部分是政治对手对文在寅政府的抹黑,导致基层推行防疫受阻——国家防疫能力够强,却输在舆论战上?这方面吾国所向披靡哈。

有这么一句“ All six children had previously been completely healthy”Jun wrote: ↑2020-03-12 17:24同济医院在 NEJM 上发了一篇case series,描述6个患中度到重度 COVID-19 的儿童病人,年龄1至7岁。症状与成年病人一致(高烧,咳嗽)其中4人有肺炎症状。1名3岁病人进ICU。最后6人全部痊愈出院。说明儿童虽然患上COVID-19的风险低于成年人,但不是完全为零,论文里没提到这6个病人的 concurrent disease。注意到同时期在同济医院三处共366个儿童住院,其中只有这6人是SARS-CoV-2阳性。

关学校对家长的影响肯定大。说关了医疗人员得回家带孩子,缺口更大。可是小孩子之间传来传去然后把流感传给家长,难道不是每年都发生的事情吗。欧洲几乎所有国家都停课了,除了自认不是欧洲的英国,和迟迟不肯做决断的瑞典。
