Please do whatever you can to avoid unnecessarily needing to utilize medical care during this virus outbreak. Medical care workers have been telling us this, but I thought I would evaluate some statistics for my area, Fresno County.
Current testing in my county has found a 2-3% positive testing rate. The good news is that the health officials feel that the virus is not spreading. The bad news is that if this same positive rate applies to the general population, it almost 20 times the number of available hospital beds, assuming worst case situations. It gets even worst if you have to evaluate this when you consider infected people needing ventilators. This is an example for my county, but if you evaluated it for your area, it will likely be similar.
If you know someone who is an emergency healthcare worker, please offer moral support to them. If you somehow have a stash of sterile medical supplies, consider donating them to your local hospital. Please be very thankful that we have a very proactive state government. Please listen to them. Stay positive. Studies have shown that those who stay positive have better outcomes in crises.
I am sorry if this seems like unsolicited beta.
