I'm sure that has some people pretty worried. I want them to taste good. I would add a few things to what the congressman just said, which is, we know that this individual who came to Washington state was tested on Renda Sever, which is the antiviral medication that they tend to use for severe cases, so maybe he's seeing a severe case and he also brought up an important point: we are getting scientific information from Chinese scientists: about 15 percent of cases develop this characteristic pneumonia that can really cause you problems and that is when they would use the antiviral drug, we have also seen cases in ones where there is recurrence of symptoms because bystanders might say, well, wait, I thought the patient was getting better, I thought he was out of danger, well, the problem with many respiratory viruses and this includes the flu.

More Interesting Facts About,

first coronavirus death in the us confirmed...

The way is that you can and people who have had the flu know it. You might think you're better and then a few days later you get worse again or another infection appears, so this is general information. Don't know. yes it applies specifically to this case, but the fact that a person tragically died from this corona virus does not necessarily mean that there will be a high case fatality rate in South Korea, Kristin, when we have already seen over 3,000 cases, there's been about 21 22

death

s so it does it most of the time the vast majority of the time and healthy people it's still a mild virus yeah dr.
first coronavirus death in the us confirmed
Siegel, I just want to press you a little bit more on that point because I think one of the things that people are having a hard time understanding about the corona virus is that there's someone like Bill Gates, who just wrote that quote, and this is starting to behave. like the once-in-a-century pathogen that worries us, but on the other hand you have someone like President Trump, who says you know this is a worrying thing, but he sort of equates it to the flu. and saying that what you need to do are the same things you need to do to prevent the flu, which is washing your hands and covering your mouth when you sneeze and cough, helps people understand how they should view this

coronavirus

in terms of how They really should be that way, it's very well said, it's not the same as the flu, it's different from the flu, the flu causes fatigue and muscle aches, this tends to cause shortness of breath and the people at Nebraska Medical Center make me Emphasize your medical knowledge. director dr.

Wadman emphasized to me that it is accompanied by a high fever, higher than the usual flu, and difficulty breathing, cough and bronchitis-like image, something in the lungs is what worries us and the other problem is that it is new, so "If we follow it and we are tracking it, we cannot in any way lessen the impact of the flu, which is a cause of death throughout the world, as was just said to an enormous amount, but this is what confuses to viewers and why everyone cares so much about what We're seeing that public health officials are trying very hard to try to eradicate this before it takes hold like the flu, that's the goal here and that's what we're doing a lot of work on. pretty good job if we can trace the cases and isolate them. in the two California cases in the Washington state case in Oregon, now the possibility of a case in New Jersey is if we can't trace where the case came from, we can't isolate or identify the accusation, that's when it gets a little out of control. right and President Trump, the Trump administration moved very quickly at the beginning of this outbreak to try to impose some travel restrictions, some mandatory quarantines and things like that, dr.
Siegel, real quick before you go, if people are worried about having the corona virus, what should they do

first

, real quick? Travel restrictions cannot be fully effective based on your national security that I spoke to because the more it spreads to other countries. like Japan and South Korea, the harder it is to really control it and people aren't going to admit that when they've been to these areas necessarily on secondary stops, what should people do? Maybe they should understand that they treat this with this. fear you have like anyone else, do you call the CDC? He goes to his doctor immediately.
Call 911? Which is the first step? If you are worried that you have contracted the corona virus, it is the same step you would take for any respiratory problem. Kristen virus, in other words, if you have a high fever, cough and shortness of breath, you have to see if you feel fatigued and have a high fever, you have to see if you go to an emergency room or call your doctor, do not call the CDC because the vast majority of the time it's not the corona virus that we talk a lot about here, but it's also the respiratory virus season that we need most.
Do we need identification kits in every major hospital in the country so we can test people and insure them? You're sick, you're worried you don't have

coronavirus

. The possibility that we are currently tracking him is very, very low. To prevent it from becoming a much bigger risk at this point, it's a very low risk. Yes, there are test kits. There have definitely been shortages in California, but I know that the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Alexei SAR, said yesterday that they are working very well. It's hard to get several thousand more kits that way in anything that needs it, dr.
Mark Siegel thank you very much
