BREAKING: Coronavirus Outbreak.

Everybody should know sending sick people home into the community is a terrible thing to do, yet this is being done in the US and many other places. US is on track for a new high well over 30,000 almost 3 weeks after state lockdowns began.
Also growth in cases continues in lock step across the US because travel restrictions are not in place (attached).
Spain yesterday new cases 5,002, lowest since March 23, today 5,051. Declining is good, but the daily multiplier is only 0.97, not low enough!

Reasonable idea and suggestion: Rebreathing viral particles that are breathed out may lead to infection of other parts of the lung. Do you have symptoms? Outdoors or with open window: Breathe out, turn to breath in clean air. Repeat multiple times, and periodically.
Refinement: Deep breathe out to exhale as much of the viral particles as possible (not if too uncomfortable). Then breathe in.
Please share. Everything we can do to help is important.
