Read this. From a doctor inside Wuhan. The situation is dire. What can we do to help? Key is what he said:
The 1st three wks determine life or death as after fatality chance rises! Meaning, if u even remotely feel somewhat sick, drink fluids & rest!

Some useful advise from the ICU doctor & also will cover the chronology of event. He said that the 1st three wks MOST KEY. After wards, fatality rates rise to 4-5% so even if u're alive after 3 wks, complicated.
Key is if u feel less than 100%, rest w/ plenty of fluids!

OK, so chronology of event (see the doctor's death below & they are similar & showing why it took so long):
10 Jan: 16 ICU beds were full & notified leadership
12 Jan: 3 Specialists were sent to investigate & said SARs like but only discussed diagnosis;

12 Jan: 3 Specialists were sent to investigate & said SARs like but only discussed diagnosis;
12 Jan: ICU doctor replied & said that diagnostic too limited & too few people being diagnosed & many hospitals in Wuhan complained the same.
18 Jan: High-level specialists showed up, ICU doctor said diagnosis criteria too stringent & put society at risk. Criteria changed.
18 Jan: High-level specialists showed up, ICU doctor said diagnosis criteria too stringent & put society at risk. Criteria changed.
28 Jan: By then, w/ a new diagnostic criteria, 40 have been infected (all of the hospital medical personnel) vs 2 infections previously.
Note that by this time, the famous doctor who died is about to die in 8 days.
Here are his thoughts on the virus that is useful.

Here are his thoughts on the virus that is useful.
His thoughts highlighted below:
Virus highly contagious but low mortality rate. Key 1st 3 wks and if past 3 wks then mortality rates rise to 4-5% & complicated.
ICU patients are obvs already life-threatening so of the 36 in ICU, 5 died +1 on 3 Feb, 28 recovered;

So basically, key pts are:
a) 1st 3 wks key, as in life or death so if u feel somewhat unwell, do not take the risk & rest & plenty of fluids;
b) This virus attacks the immune system & if not under control in 1st 3 wks, escalates VERY QUICKLY & can turn life-threatening FAST!

Lessons from this article are:
Key is to contain & if not, then at the early stage, nip it in the bud;
If severe, hospitalize ASAP but don't get to the life-threatening stage obvs
No drugs so far to cure this & some cocktail may work.
So w/ that, I'm off to Twins Peak🤗🌄

The ratios he mentioned are interesting. So basically, of the 138 confirmed (already got severe symptoms):
36 admitted to ICU so 26% of those w/ body inflammed turning to life-threatening; Once u're in the ICU, mortality is 17%
Of the 138 cases, 6 died so rate is mortality 4.3%
36 admitted to ICU so 26% of those w/ body inflammed turning to life-threatening; Once u're in the ICU, mortality is 17%
Of the 138 cases, 6 died so rate is mortality 4.3%
No now that doctor's death makes sense: by the time he was diagnosed, he already was in the severe stage & his symptoms still tested false negative (4.3% fatality rate at this stage).
So basically, his chance of survival was lower & by the time u're in the ICU, which means 26%.

Makes sense the lower mortality rate of mainland China or outside Hubei as what is key is what u do immediately once u feel somewhat under the the weather!
Early detection, early rest & copious about of fluid intake, & early self quarantine🤗
