We could be at the turning point of this pandemic, despite the ongoing fear-mongering from the government and mainstream media. Hospitalizations for COVID-19 patients dropped 20% last week in Washington State, fevers across the country are down, and the Bay Area of California has already seen a “flattening of the curve” after two weeks of social isolation.
The state Department of Health (DOH) survey, covering the seven-day period that ended Saturday, tallied 193 admissions of patients with symptoms of fever, cough, and shortness of breath, down from 251 the previous week, reported The Seattle Times. This also marks the end of a monthlong rise in these admissions, which dates back to the last week in February, when only 61 hospitalizations of COVID-19-like illness were counted in Washington state.
The downturn in hospitalizations in Washington, once the epicenter of the U.S. coronavirus epidemic, comes as increasingly dire scenes unfold in other states — including New York, where some 9,500 people have been hospitalized and beleaguered doctors and nurses contend with a rapidly rising caseload of desperately sick patients. –The Seattle Times.
“We have seen an increase in volume of COVID-19 patients but fortunately at a slower rate than we anticipated, which is great,” said Dr. Douglas Wood, chair of UW Medicine’s surgery department, in an interview last week. “We have enough surgical masks to do our job. But we have to anticipate tomorrow.” This is an indication that the social distancing that has throttled the economy and taken away the livelihood of millions of Americans has bee working, reported The Seattle Times.
Reason reported that fewer fevers have also been reported nationwide. This means the peak of this outbreak would be sooner than mid-April as the “experts” in the mainstream media predicted.
These good signs are an indication that the social distancing measures put in place have slowed the spread of the coronavirus and other influenza type illnesses. Hopefully, these trends continue so we can all get back to our lives, albeit under a much more authoritarian state.
In California’s Bay Area, doctors have already seen a “flattening of the curve” after only two weeks of social distancing. After 14 days — the outermost period at which symptoms are believed to emerge post-infection — doctors at area hospitals are now reporting fewer cases than they expected to see at this point, according to a report by Politico.

Dammit I was hoping those freaks would perish. Why do a-holes seem to live forever?
I wonder that every time I see your post !
Why would you say such a thing?
What would you be saying if it were YOUR loved ones sick with the virus?
You may want to consider getting off your high horse and stop belittling people.
It’s not nice,and can result in someone giving you an attitude adjustment.
Howdy Y’all,
To say that the last few weeks have been ‘extraordinary’ would be the understatement of the millennium, eh?
Well, for years those hereabouts have been watching…and waiting for the signatory event that would indicate that the PTB were on the cusp of running off to their gloriously well-stocked, fortified bunkers, no? Perhaps the current ‘Fog of Pandemic might – just might – be the smokescreen for just that. Currently up at the Hedge;
“Corporate Revolvers Reach A Tipping Point: Here Are All The Companies That Have Drawn Down Thier Bank Loans”
The Bankster’s are already WELL situated, make no mistake on that point – those have queered the system for years getting ready for what is happening now – however, our ‘Captains of Industry’ are, to all appearances, getting ready to ‘Jump Ship’ as well. Read through it and form your own opinion.
In this current environment surely there is enough ‘plausible justifiability’ to do EXACTLY as the piece suggest, yes? Indeed, but with all that CASH suddenly flushed out into their greedy little mits how MUCH is being diverted – much as our own Pentagon diverts cash by buying $800 hammers and $3000 toilet seats.
I’ll leave you to your recreational reading…
Adios mi Amigo’s.
JOG
It’s the flu. As the Great Rush Limbaugh pointed out, California, with its incessant air travel to and from China, should have been the epicenter. And it was – it’s the flu – a new strain – and came and went as herd immunity developed.
As for China, BS is still BS. They lie. Why would they panic and shut down cities of MILLIONS for the flu? Why would they hastily construct a huge three wing hospital, and put BARS on the windows and guards on the outside, when if they so decide, killing you is the easiest option? Why would they WELD people’s doors shut and leave them to die? Because they were dead already from the bio-weapon that escaped – and it wasn’t the flu. Let’s hope it was contained. Trusting China, we’ll find out the hard way.
