I almost never agree with YOU...but on this, yep.  I do.  And when this is over?  China has hell to pay.   The world is working together to beat the virus, and they'll work like hell to change the hold China has on the world.  The deceit and lying has now been exposed, as has their cavalier attitude toward humanity.  Welcome to socialism.   Personally?  There was a weird, funky non-flu, but worse than a cold-like "thing" that went through Indiana just after Christmas.   I think (Spidey-sense) this thing has been around for a while, and I think today's version is a mutation.
I had it Jan 2 and lasted like a week and half but I had the worst cough of my life and other horrible symptoms. Whether or not that was it? No clue but I know the "bug" you're talking about and about all of the 25 people I work with daily also had the same thing

Chit man. That sux. I’m sure the nurse is stressed.  Hoping it all works out.

It probably hasn’t been here much longer  Before it was identified as being here. This stuff spreads too fast.  At the pace it spreads if it had been here since December we would have already been out of ventilators.  
Majority of people don't need them with this. It did spread like crazy around where I am because just about everyone I knew had similar stuff within like 3 weeks of one another. I'm not saying it was Covid but it sure seems plausible. And I remember hearing all about it being in China and other countries right around the same time

Damn brother. I’ve read too much **** on Twitter about how people seeking help (later tested positive) were being treated. I understand they are probably under stress but still. Hope for a quick recovery.

Doesn’t matter if the majority don’t need them. 20% of a huge number is still a big number. We didn’t see a spike in the demand for ventilators.

Influenza (A? B? can't recall) was very prevalent here in Indianapolis for two weeks or so in mid-January. Enough of the symptoms are similar that I could see mistaking that.

Yeah, that sounds like the same "bug" I've seen and heard about.  One of my sons had it and his high school was down ~ 20% at one point.   I really don't think we're dealing with something that came to our border on January 21st as reported.  That may have been the known date, but I smell a rat, and I'm anything but a conspiracy theorist.

I'd agree except I know a few people, my son included who tested negative for flu A/B.

The cost of the economic support plans being thrown around are frightening. Trillions! The economic costs of the war on this virus scares me every bit as much as the virus itself, maybe more. Massive unplanned for government expenditures during rapidly declining revenues cannot be sustained. In shutting down the country we have effectively shutdown the economy. I hope we start opening things up sooner than later.

My wild and probably non-plausible idea is to force China to forgive all debt and start over.    That'd erase that $trillion real fast.

This is what was going around if this covid bug was in Indy since January we would have seen an increase in ventilator needs back then.
