This would be a fantastic time for the US to drop its bs rhetoric, work with Iran, and save lives both there and in the rest of the world.
Research from the Chinese Center for Disease Control suggests that around 80% of coronavirus cases are mild. Around 15% of patients have gotten severe cases, and 5% have become critically ill.
Here's how symptoms progress among typical patients:
- Day 1: Patients run a fever. They may also experience fatigue, muscle pain, and a dry cough. A small minority of them may have had diarrhea or nausea one to two days before.
- Day 5: Patients may have difficulty breathing — especially if they are older or have a preexisting health condition.
- Day 7: This is how long it takes, on average, before patients are admitted to a hospital, according to the Wuhan University study.
- Day 8: At this point, patients with severe cases (15%, according to the Chinese CDC) develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), an illness that occurs when fluid builds up the lungs. ARDS is often fatal.
- Day 10: If patients have worsening symptoms, this is the time in the disease's progression when they're most likely to be admitted to the ICU. These patients probably have more abdominal pain and appetite loss than patients with milder cases. Only a small fraction die: The current fatality rate hovers around 2%.
- Day 17: On average, people who recover from the virus are discharged from the hospital after two-and-a-half weeks.

Stay vigilant, stay careful, but most importantly, do not spread false information.

This would be a fantastic time for Iran to drop it's bs sponsorship of Hezbollah, Assad, Shiite militias, Houthi rebels, work with the US, and save lives both there and in the rest of the world.
With the 150+ Italian cases (3 dead), it's probably safe to say that the virus is out of our control... which we probably never had. https://apnews.com/32540d09ec101aac057660ef1b0aa970

If you have particularly useful historical information to hand then it would probably better to share it rather than hint at its existence.
Everyone who had history in high school has historical information about this. There have been numerous plagues throughout history with higher infectivity, higher lethality, and both relatively and absolutely higher death counts. Don't put the burden of looking up simple and easily findable information on other posters when you can easily google it yourself.

Around 99% of the patients developed a high temperature, while more than half experienced fatigue and a dry cough. About a third also experienced muscle pain and difficulty breathing.

We are seeing patients well beyond the day 5: difficulty breathing condition.
Your last statement is imperative.

> This virus is unprecedented I think you need to read up on your history.

Fucking hell, these politicians are as much a virus as the virus itself. 100% that number was pulled straight from their hindquarters.
