    I don't trust the statistics, they vary quite a bit. What happened to the baby in England who got it during birth, did it survive, or die> The health of poeple the age groups vary, even amnng those in their 29s.I know I am sick of overzealous governors, like Mke DeWine shutting down all industry, for a few cases in the state, and only 2 when he declared natl. emergency. Ohio will have not retail, no jobs when he is done. People are getting panic stricken and fearing for their pensions, should they survive, both the virus and they daily DeWiney?Amy show. Having been through H1N1, when there was no real nedua barragem U ride ut iyt at ihome, knowing I was allergic to the anti flu treatment. We have seen it all by 70, yearn for freedom, and accept death, Better than dying in your house becaus oef a state decree where we could die alone of otehr causes.

    Good idea with Type 2 diabetes. I'm moderate with sweets at bithday parties and holiday gatherings.
    Ate some sugar free chocolate pudding today.
    Sugar free is how I drink green tea with a freshly squeezed small lemon during main meals.
    And I always drink sodas sugar free. And there's fat free milk with breakfast.

    Better that than to have no more birthdays, and you can still talk by telephone or possibly other advanced technical means if you do that.

    My family is doing just that. Thought they were all pretty smart for not coming by in person or with their kids to see me on my March 17th birthday. Same will happen to a grown son on his March 29th birthday.

    I'm glad you realize it, but it isn't what you said. Practice social isolation, something that many of are already very good at.

    That will be the secondary medical research that will take a while to process providing it does not get corrupted

    I wonder how we can find out the percentage of people who can be exposed but are just not going to come down with it- and sorted by age. Any ideas?

    There is a very simple testing problem that gives a result which seems unlikely.
    Suppose someone is given a drug test and it comes out positive. If the test is 95% accurate and 5% of the population is statistically found to use the drug, what is the chance that the person is guilty of using the drug?
    After a little math, it can be shown that the chance of guilt is 1 chance in two or 50/50.

    The risk factors by age I think are very interesting and provide information for more targeted approach
