(14,691 posts)They are only testing a very small, very sick, slice of patients presenting symptoms. The virus isn't being contained.
Remember the John's hopkins map a few weeks ago, after the virus was first tracked? China's map looked a lot like it does for the us today. We are about 8 weeks behind them.
One big difference is they took draconian measures to seal off wuhan, where the virus was most prevalent, as well as other hot spots as they presented themselves. Travel was impossible. Some people had the doors to their buildings welded shut.
We aren't even acknowledging the problem at the fed level. States are taking the brunt of testing and isolation. But travel continues normally.
This is very scary right now. In 8 weeks, this will be a much different country.

(3,299 posts)...the little people don't need to know f...em as they say in repuke land.
What country the person visited, and what institutions are related to a case, may affect a person's choice of activity, what hospital or health care institutions to go to in need etc.

(3,299 posts)You could walk right into the place where the problem is. I guess that's what they don't want. Patterns of commerce interrupted. But there is no avoiding it.
DeSantis is talking about containment. The Health Dept web site says they've only done 188 tests while monitoring 1010 people. The tests are still being treated as a scarce resource they can't afford to use liberally.
