Demography don't matter.

212 new virus cases in Moscow over the last 24hrs.

102 of them between the ages of 20-40!

People are alarmed enough, do we need more info that spreads panic?

[dembonesDAMNBONES in reply to helixhelix]

Panic?

Well, if informing the public that a former misconception can be dangerous, then let those given to panic do so.

If you don't like my posts you are free to scroll past them, but I won't be complying with your inference that I should remain silent on a matter that is pertinent to the current crisis.

I leave the on-the need-to-know-basis to incompetent govt officials.

I will follow your suggestion and ignore your posts then. Even tho’ I detest the man, I wasn’t too happy with how you referred to Trump either, as verging on the libellous.

There is a big difference between providing information that is useful and overloading people with worrying material. It has been obvious for a while that the virus can be serious in all age groups.

Bye bye

Agreed. I think we should all be aware by now that coronavirus , like any virus, is indiscriminate. Hopefully, with the guidance given, if we follow it, we will stay well and importantly, ensure others do too.

[dembonesDAMNBONES in reply to Eiram50]

Exactly, which is why I posted, so folk are aware and don't let their guard drop, thinking only the elderly, very young or those with an underlying health condition are at risk.

Well that’s another conspiracy story out of the window! Unless those 212 have been thrown to the dogs ?

[dembonesDAMNBONES in reply to AgedCrone]

Conspiracy?

And nobody told me? 😂😂😂

Haven't heard this one, so spill the beans, please.

[AgedCrone in reply to dembonesDAMNBONES]

It’s all fallen a bit flat Now......it was something about Putin & the little fat man in N Korea being in cahoots with China because they had no declared cases of CV19 . ..but now Russia has cases...don’t know about NK!

[dembonesDAMNBONES]

😂😂😂😂😂

Unfortunately Russia had just over 9,000 confirmed cases by last night.

They, like China, started building dedicated hospitals from January and have one already up and running, just outside Moscow with two others partly built at the moment.

Don't know about wee fat Kim and his people in NK, though.

“Our analysis very clearly shows that at aged 50 and over, hospitalisation is much more likely than in those under 50, and a greater proportion of cases are likely to be fatal.”
