I’m reading plenty of anecdotal cases of asymptomatic carriers being the most likely vectors to other individuals. But it’s tough to tell. Looks like the average is an R3, but if 20% are asymptomatic, that r3 could be very skewed. I also don’t think social distancing is as effective as people think since the virus seems to live on plastic and metal surfaces for up to 5 days, so no direct transmission is the real worry. Either way we’re in uncharted territory. A brand new highly contagious disease, and we’re still in the early days of this. Who knows.Earlier this week; pretty sure it was on NPR Radio, but I have also read it in articles about the virus. They were researchers from the UK. I googled the question and pulled up an article on CNN that said different experts have different views on the subject. Some say it is not a significant factor in the spread; others say it is, especially those people with very mild cases who may not even slow down. This is all new to them, too.That’s not what I’ve been hearing. I’ve heard a week before symptoms show you’re contagious. I’m sure you get more contagious as time passes. But if it was only 24 hours before symptoms show, that seems like it would be so much easier to contain than what we’re seeing. Where have you seen this?2.5 million (20%) won't show symptoms, but become carriers which is problematic.This isn’t comparable to H1N1. That was an influenza strain we hadn’t seen in a few decades. Many old people had immunity to it. This is a brand new disease, that’s worse than influenza. Granted it’s not the plague, but what we don’t want is what’s happening in Italy right now where they are denying treatment to people over 60 because their hospitals are overrun. We’ll take my state as an example. Only 500 in PA have it now. Population is 12 million, so 2.5 million (20%) won't show symptoms, but become carriers which is problematic. 600,000-1.2 M are going to get rocked by this. And basically everyone else is going to have the flu for a week or 2. We know this does spread exponentially, the only trick is making sure it's a factor of 2 instead of 4-5, so hospitals can handle the influx. Basically what I'm saying is we haven't seen the real panic yet with only 500 cases recorded, and our shelves are already empty.
The democrat party members of the press are pushing panic and hysteria....the democrat party members in congress are blocking aid in order to increase the panic and the economic collapse......the democrat party governors are shutting down their states to wreck the economy........
Articles at American Thinker point out that Dr. Fauci, or the new James Comey.......did not suggest closing schools, restaruants or the economy when he was in charge during the H1N1 flu outbreak....instead, he said the opposite....

It seems some viral infection pandemics are more equal than others. At least when it comes to burning a vibrant Trump economy to the ground.
In September 2009, after millions had become infected with the H1N1 influenza and thousands had died, some of whom were young people and children, a relaxed and unalarmed Dr. Anthony Fauci told an interviewer that people just need "to use good judgment."
"Parents should not send their kids to school if they're sick, if you're sick don't go to work ... avoid places where there are people who are sick and coughing, now that's a difficult thing to do,” he said. "...You can't isolate yourself from the rest of the world for the whole flu season." That’s quite a change from the esteemed expert’s views on the current virus from China sweeping the world.
-----
Additionally, nowhere in the 2009 interview does Dr. Fauci specifically mention restaurants and bars as hot spots for the transmission of the H1N1 virus as he does in his recent interview with Yahoo News: “When I see crowded bars and crowded restaurants, it is a little bit unnerving,” Fauci said. "It’s clear that those are the situations that put people very much at risk." Talk about wielding power. Take a look around the country. Local and state officials have heeded Fauci’s “unnerving” concern and ordered restaurants to close their dining areas, or adhere to a 10-person limit. In cities and small towns everywhere, the restaurant industry, which includes owners, suppliers, chefs, line cooks, waitstaff, and bartenders, has been decimated.
Restaurants and bar owners, along with their employees, are the hardest hit economically by the virus. In my city of Richmond, Virginia, 75% to 80% of restaurant staff have been laid off. One hundred restaurants have closed and those not following Governor Ralph ‘Blackface' Northam's 10-person limit have been advised they could lose their business licenses and possibly risk police action if they do not comply. Meanwhile, Dr. Fauci lamented to Yahoo! News that he is unable to get his usual seven-mile daily run in due to his 19-hour days helping the American people, but he's hopeful "sometime soon we’ll get back to some normality where I can exercise the way I like to exercise."
Lastly, nowhere in the 2009 interview does Fauci use inflammatory, fear-inducing rhetoric, despite the number of H1N1-infected individuals, increased hospitalizations and deaths occurring at that time. Eleven years later, on March 11, 2020, Fauci is gung ho about COVID-19, warning lawmakers at a hearing on Capitol Hill: "Bottom line, it's going to get worse." Since then, the renowned AIDS epidemiologist has been seen daily at White House press conferences and on cable news shows reiterating this message to the public.
For all of Dr. Fauci’s daily appearances and scientific evaluations of the data, questions still abound. For example: Why did Dr. Fauci not sound the alarm in 2009 as urgently as he has done in 2020? Why did he not insist we 'force' hospitals to cancel elective tests and surgeries to save room for future infected patients during the H1N1 outbreak? Why did he pointedly target restaurants and bars in his concern for the spread of the coronavirus but not H1N1? As a specialist in infectious diseases, and as a self-described "man of science," why support the closing of schools, businesses, and home quarantine for one virus and not the other?
Now, what we have going against us vs Italy, or virtually anywhere else in the world, is we have a lot more risk factors. The top 3 risk factors for people are obesity, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes. We take home the gold in all 3 of those events. The states that are shutting down are currently getting rocked by this, but that’s relative since we’ve barely scratched the surface on infections. This needs to be taken seriously, but we can’t have panic either.
According to researchers, people are only contagious for the 24 hours before getting sick, when the viral load has reached Go. So I wonder about this "silent carriers" number. Am I missing something?
He did the only responsible thing to do in that situation which was ban travel fromChina. It’s called a quarantine, and they stop pandemics. Which is why the EU is getting hammered by this, and why it’s just starting over here. That alone bought us at least a month. And it’s only starting over here because the EU lost containment. He did the most valuable thing you could do, that the jackasses in the EU didn’t because some idiots out there started equating quarantines with racism. They eventually had to ban travel anyway but it came way too late, kind of like putting on a condom after the wads been shot. And in that month it seems like we discovered successful treatments that will hopefully lower the death rate here. Honestly I can’t wait to read all the case studies that come out of this. They won’t be friendly to the EU and especially not China. Letting the disease spread all over airports was definitely not a good idea.
The poor pitiful propaganda parrot can't think, only squawk.

We can't stop the virus without your racism
I'm no fan of either of them, but I don't think that's why they are doing it. Being obstructionist will hurt them BADLY. They are looking to see the money divvied out differently, that's all. Did no one ever tell you that the Democrats and the Republicans have different priorities?
I promise I'm not trying to give you a hard time, just encouraging you not to use inflated numbers you may have read somewhere. This is bad enough, but it's not five days:I’m reading plenty of anecdotal cases of asymptomatic carriers being the most likely vectors to other individuals. But it’s tough to tell.
