Covid-19 Death Rate Appears To Be Dropping

[White 6]

It has been for a while, but you wouldn't know that listening to the media.

Well, the media in MN is in full panic mode and WI enacted a 25% occupancy requirement on businesses because the magical numbers "are going the wrong way". Now schools only open for a couple weeks part time are talking going full distance learning again.
For the first time I hear kids saying they want to go to school and people want to go to work. I want to know the numbers of those like me who long ago had enough of Shelter In PlaceTM.

The numbers are alarming. I wish them better luck handling it than we have done in Tennessee. Wisconson not doing it at the moment. Their death count today is 3 bodies more than us and their new case count today is almost 3,000 more than us. They just do not want to catch up to our overall Covid dead number and I do not blame them.

In a report from NPR, quoting a study of a single health system, to be published in next week in Journal of Hospital Medicine, the death rate for hospitalized Covid-19 patient has seen a significant reduction in death rate.
Studies Point To Big Drop In COVID-19 Death Rates
Two new peer-reviewed studies are showing a sharp drop in mortality among hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The drop is seen in all groups, including older patients and those with underlying conditions, suggesting that physicians are getting better at helping patients survive their illness.

"We find that the death rate has gone down substantially," says Leora Horwitz, a doctor who studies population health at New York University's Grossman School of Medicine and an author on one of the studies, which looked at thousands of patients from March to August.

The study, which was of a single health system, finds that mortality has dropped among hospitalized patients by 18 percentage points since the pandemic began. Patients in the study had a 25.6% chance of dying at the start of the pandemic; they now have a 7.6% chance.

Their analysis took into account that the people that are getting sick now are significantly younger and with less pre-existing conditions than the average seen closer to the beginning of the pandemic. They were trying to determine whether the decrease was due to the nature of the patient or improvements in treatment.

It is an interesting article, especially coming into the fall season with cooler weather and while observing a marked rise in the number of cases being report, virtually across the nation and including states that have majorly been spare so far.

Studies Point To Big Drop In COVID-19 Death Rates

More hospitalized patients are surviving than early in the pandemic. Improved treatments make a big difference, but so does flattening the curve to keep hospitals from overfilling, researchers say.

Analytics. The science involved is just that. Learning more and more on how to care for the infected.

Thanks for finally admitting it wasn't somehow the fault of one man's covert coverup who used to be a real estate developer, and instead, the natural learning curve of 10,000 virologists and 1,000,000 medical experts dealing with something new they had never seen before. Another Dem lie exposed.

Hinchado, I never said what you say. Get a life, would you?

Buzz off, Creep.

You should STFU hinchado.

Make me, you degenerate, sociopathic shitstain.

On Monday, there was one death from Covid in Los Angeles County. That's a county of over 10 million people. One single death, yet Los Angeles remains nearly shut down.
