After much thought about whether and what to write about what is happening to us, I felt that silence was not responsible. I will therefore try to convey to people far from our reality what we are living in Bergamo in these days of Covid-19 pandemic. I understand the need not to create panic, but when the message of the dangerousness of what is happening does not reach people I shudder.
I myself watched with some amazement the reorganization of the entire hospital in the past week, when our current enemy was still in the shadows: the wards slowly "emptied", elective activitieswere interrupted, intensive care were freed up to create as many beds as possible. All this rapid transformation brought an atmosphere of silence and surreal emptiness to the corridors of the hospital that we did not yet understand, waiting for a war that was yet to begin and that many (including me) were not so sure would ever come with such ferocity. I still remember my night call a week ago when I was waiting for the results of a swab. When I think about it, my anxiety over one possible case seems almost ridiculous and unjustified, now that I've seen what's happening. Well, the situation now is dramatic to say the least.
Cooper Fisher
The war has literally exploded and battles are uninterrupted day and night. But now that need for beds has arrived in all its drama. One after the other the departments that had been emptied fill up at an impressive pace.The boards with the names of the patients, of different colours depending on the operating unit, are now all red and instead of surgery you see the diagnosis, which is always the damned same: bilateral interstitial pneumonia.
Now, explain to me which flu virus causes such a rapid drama. And while there are still people who boast of not being afraid by ignoring directions, protesting because their normal routine is"temporarily" put in crisis, the epidemiological disaster is taking place. And there are no more surgeons, urologists, orthopedists, we are only doctors who suddenly become part of a single team to face this tsunami that has overwhelmed us.
Cases are multiplying, we arrive at a rate of 15-20 admissions per day all for the same reason. The results of the swabs now come one after the other: positive, positive, positive. Suddenly the E.R. is collapsing. Reasons for the access always the same: fever and breathing difficulties, fever and cough, respiratory failure. Radiology reports always the same: bilateral interstitial pneumonia, bilateral interstitial pneumonia, bilateral interstitial pneumonia. All to be hospitalized. Someone already to be intubated and go to intensive care. For others it's too late... Every ventilator becomes like gold: those in operating theatres that have now suspended their non-urgent activity become intensive care places that did not exist before.

The staff is exhausted. I saw the tiredness on faces that didn't know what it was despite the already exhausting workloads they had. I saw a solidarity of all of us, who never failed to go to our internist colleagues to ask "what can I do for you now?" Doctors who move beds and transfer patients, who administer therapies instead of nurses. Nurses with tears in their eyes because we can't save everyone, and the vital parameters of several patients at the same time reveal an already marked destiny. There are no more shifts, no more hours. Social life is suspended for us. We no longer see our families for fear of infecting them. Some of us have already become infected despite the protocols. Some of our colleagues who are infected also have infected relatives and some of their relatives are already struggling between life and death. So be patient, you can't go to the theatre, museums or the gym. Try to have pity on the myriad of old people you could exterminate.
We just try to make ourselves useful. You should do the same: we influence the life and death of a few dozen people. You with yours, many more. Please share this message. We must spread the word to prevent what is happening here from happening all over Italy." I finish by saying that I really don't understand this war on panic. The only reason I see is mask shortages, but there's no mask on sale anymore. We don't have a lot of studies, but is it panic really worse than neglect and carelessness during an epidemic of this sort?

its too late for me but it isn't too late for you don't wait
just wait untill we do the same to you, it will be fun.

So I have ordered a 500 count bottle of fishmox and 3 packages of liposomal Vitamin C. Any other drugs, besides the common ones I already have, that I should be stocked up on just in case. Hospitals are going to fall apart sooner rather then later I am afraid.
Why do all the "recovered" cases come from China, Iran and worst korea? Almost no recovered cases from US and Europe. What does "recovered" mean for them?
Uni quarantine is officially next Monday I got an email from one of the courses i have tomorrow saying not to come in, if i still have to go to the other imma coof on everyone there

>Friend has a fever and is dry coughing >Doctor is being told he is not allowed to test him because he has no travel history >Friend keeps going to work and school in public transport every day spreading it far and wide
I wonder why “almost all” our 156 confirmed cases are travel related lmao
Fucking retard guberment and doctors are giving corona Chan free access to kill everyone
I’m 100% sure Italy has such high numbers because they’re actually fucking testing everyone
its definitely not recommended if you disinfect your hands when you touch it and after it might be okay though best to just save them for when you really need them imo
Lucas Walker
I read that as "wear a baby" at first and I was really alarmed.
Are there are lot of people with masks where you live? Saw the first asian girl here in a supermarket with a face mask and that's the first time where I felt shit is getting real and this is not just a larp.

I have a Dutch fren who doesn't wanna listen to reason, no matter what I link or say. He goes to all the public gatherings and social events, as well as daily long commutes and job. Feelsbad...
Well we have 4 confirmed cases here so far and one guy has been walking around with symptoms for a week before being put into quarantine, and I'm gonna be using public transport for an hour and a half minimum today
Is that reason enough to wear one out in public atm?

its so typical of sick people to keep going to work / school here in denmark and i fucking hate it. my sister has been to belgium lately and went to tons of concerts. she got sick, refused to get tested and now shes going to school while still sick + my mom and possibly I (my throat has been feeling weird as shit + coughing) have been infected too and my mom still goes to work while sick. whats worst about that is my mom works with old sick people.
Medical supply used by other countries, avoid exportations and massive supply chain problems from china.
4 provinces having big number cases, Whole Spain supply network works around Madrid(capital) and current government and mass media do nothing and say just a flu.

Plus the amount of fucking layabouts and benefit scroungers cluttering up the place was unbelievable. Always seem unhealthy, look unhealthy and permanently ill just plodding around the place for something to fill their empty day with.
There's a large element of British society that needs culling.

Absolutely. Iran, SK, Japan, Turkey, and other countries too, are lying fuckers.
SK = Damage control due to Shinji cult spreading it all over the world. Also, similar system to China's dictatorship. Iran = Sucking on door knobs, shrines and holy sites all open for a long, long time, suppression of new videos and news... It's China 2.0. Turkey = Economy getting BTFO, Syria war going bad, Greece and EU cockblocking the migrants, they don't want to stop travel during their tourist season. Japan = Olympics.

Everyone who had been to the infected countries or is from those countries must stay at home, check his temperature regularly and immediately call the ambulance if he fells sick
jews can’t stop meeting conglomerating all the time they infected dozens of countries already first case in ny was a kike, now they infected dozens of people at aipac including maybe trump, pic related dude on the right is pozzed with corona
idk id wait until infected cases get into the 100s as of now just bring hand sanitizer with you wherever you go also prep now so you can reduce travel outside of your home as much as possible once the ball starts rolling here i intend to stay locked down in my room mostly every day only going out if i absolutely have to and using my masks only if i have to go through high population density areas i would use them already if i had the cheap disposable ones but there aren't any anywhere and i cant get them online either so basically gonna be going without masks unless going through city stores, airports, buses etc

Finland is rip. I started to have a dry cough, sore throat and fever this weekend. Yesterday I got a text from my French relative that visited me week ago and she said that one of her patient was tested positive for covid. She said the patient visited her before the trip to Finland and she herself might be asymptomatic carrier and told if I show any symptoms ask local healthcare to test. Today I called and they told me no worries. It doesn't spread like that, only if someone showing symptoms coughs on you, you might MIGHT get infected. I tried to lie that she was also showing symptoms but then they asked her details and wanted to call her to confirm that she was tested positive also.

Frens, my hands just can’t take it anymore. I washed them too much before all of this, but now I’m going overboard in hopes of minimizing risks of infection. I keep using hand lotions. And not the cheap kind, I always buy based Neutrogena and I’m good for a couple of hours, but I’m always back to square one. Any advice?
Confirmed cases in Brazil jumped from 25 yesterday to 30 today, and suspected jumped from 660 to almost 1000, just after they decided to start test people other than those who were out of the country. Brazil breakdown soon.

I don't have to. None of us have anything to do with it any regardless if we discuss things here or not, it's gonna continue spreading and getting worse. Who benefits?

You can find packets of Erythromycin for fish at the big pet stores, it's a really good antibiotic that cannot be taken orally, but it's great for topical use or if the need arises as an enema. I used it once to take care of a nasty bacterial infection in my armpit.
a nurse told me some people are invited to stay in the hospital based off a list; one man showed up in his car with his wife and they let the wife go, she will most likely infect everyone going in a shopping spree like all of those braindead women, peak clown world

The biggest concern right now is not the current CFR, but what the CFR will be when medical systems get overrun. About 10% of infections need an IC bed and assisted breathing. If those IC beds and breathing machines run out, we have a serious problem and the CFR may shoot up.
We can use the growth factor of 1.2 (observed in i.e. Italy) to compute the number of days until the number of infections exceeds the number of IC beds. This growth factor is reasonable since most EU countries have comparable population densities and infrastructure. In effect, we compute the following:
# days until overrun = CEIL((log(# IC beds * (1 - % of IC beds taken)) - log(# infections))/log(growth factor))
I compute the following: d00 - number of days until medical system overrun GIVEN 0% of beds are taken d50 - number of days until medical system overrun GIVEN 50% of beds are taken d75 - number of days until medical system overrun GIVEN 75% of beds are taken d90 - number of days until medical system overrun GIVEN 90% of beds are taken
Note that d00 is the most optimistic scenario, and very unrealistic. Most countries have a shortage of IC beds on a normal day, especially in urban areas. In the Netherlands d90 is more realistic. Friends who work in the medical sector have told me this. You can decide for yourself which estimate you find most reasonable.
