Infectious Disease Expert: Half Of America Is Likely To Catch Coronavirus | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
It’s the mutation of something we don’t understand; that is the concern.
@Eastern Woods Yes! Its a bit technical but, the presenter is an expert and, unlike many experts, is an excellent teacher.
It won’t be cured with a vaccine it’ll just disappear as it randomly appeared
That’s how I feel about SPAM….to this day I won’t eat it

Error 404: No concern found – Too many humans detected – Virus is a good thing.
This is Reality’s punishment for mass ignorance and incompetence.
@Kevin Willis The fact that you bring Trump into this when everyone else is talking about the general population being ignorant just shows you are apart of the general population. Also quit your whining and accept the fact that he is your president.
Well said Mr. President
To the extent ignorance is responsible it is the Chinese’s: We weren’t the ones who decided to put chickens, bats, civets, dogs, and snakes into a bdsm, disease riddled hellscape that almost seems designed to breed diseases.
Dude, you realize that globalization, travel, and the desire to interact with and learn from other cultures is responsible for the spread of this? If people didn’t travel for mere tourism, this would be much less wide spread. I am not saying tourism is wrong, but just that it literally was people seeking first hand knowledge of other places that is largely spreading this. It is the opposite of ignorance.
This is the cost of globalization.
@Elijah Logobizaar Good point, Elijah! Once the Chinese market initiated it all, my anti-science positions, the rampant anti-vaxxers in the U.S., the lack of general science education, the fact that I didn’t want those German test kits for … reasons, my stooges being completely incompetent at their jobs, my pretending it would go away like a miracle–all of these things had no effect and have no culpability at all! The ignorance started and stopped in China! I love your thinking! This is why there is absolutely no difference between the nations of the world in infection numbers and death rates! Every government is the same! Other than China! All their fault!
HiddenWen Coronavirus started in China and the Chinese government tried to conceal reports of infections from the world. All Coronavirus deaths around the world are on China’s hands.
Especially many older, vulnerable people will die.
@Ashlynn Shepard ok boomer
@Generic Youtuber 😂😂🤣
@Hope Faith what’s the matter ? You don’t want people to leave this world to meet their maker
Most profitable way to reduce Social Security expenses, ya think? Profit on health care, profit on funerals.
@Champagne davy ah hahahahaha! Wrong boo! So wrong. I just have the greater intelligence of the two of us.
If half the country gets infected it means that everybody will get infected.
Right bc those people with the corona virus wont know they have it until 12 days so that means those 12 days there gonna be everywhere..
@LifeWith chelley Yes, that’s why wearing a mask is effective!
We don’t know who got infected and this virus is extremely contagious even in the beginning of stage!!!
Any countries tell people not to wearing the protective masks even in cluster area ( ex: subways, trains, etc) have to fight with this pendemic longer and deeper!!!
@벨에스프맅 true, there are at least 5 strains of the virus identified and one infection doesn’t protect you from the others.
If a quarter get infected, half will get infected, and all will get infected. I am not sure your logic holds up.
1 in 10000000000000000000000 Probability
Resistant from corona
My cellphone screen probably has it .
If u watch pornhub, then yes.

crazy stufff
I have a sore throat right now and I’m really concerned about it.
Without a doubt it’s Martha dirtiest unkeptt things that you were wrong
Chill bruh
With the advent of FaceTime and video-chat, being under quarantine is a lot less lonely than it was in pre-cell phone eras.
Superlative CG as long as I can still sext and call people. I’ll be good.
Superlative CG
and quarantine is completely unnecessary in the first place, so we really have nothing to worry about. we dont even really have to worry about being quarantined. some looks on the bright side 🙂
Boo CaCa98 it isn’t unnecessary. If people didn’t get quarantined, there would be less confirmed cases, but more cases nonetheless. The thing is that your grandparents probably will die or be in critical condition if they get it unless they are perfectly fine. We need to be careful.
Until they pull the plug on the internet to hide the mortality rate…..ssshhhh….who said that?😥🖥😥
zap RL you can be 100 years old and as long as youre healthy youll be fine. COVID 19 specializes in immune systems that already have problems, meaning not all old people will die, just the ones that already have stuff going on
Journal your symptoms. Health workers will value you for making their job more effective.
Just make sure you put it all on your toetags and email it to them BEFORE shipping yourself to the nearest medical facility in a bodybag. Also, keep that surprise cake in its container…NO SAMPLING.
Very true; I’ve literally had doctors ecstatic over my little “notes” that I’ve taken in my young adult years as a heart condition has worsened from time to time (I was born with a “leaky valve” to put it in layperson’s terms, and it is replaced from time to time as it deteriorates, to put it very generally).
@Progressive Humanist Is that similar to what people used call a hole in the heart?
Ten times higher “Slightly higher than the seasonal flu”. SMH
10x.01 is not accurate when it’s reported that the covid-19 death rate is 3-4 percent.
Garden Joy Well that’s your opinion, but I still heard that 70-80% getting infected, but according to Expert Trump it’s just 50% , the same Expert Trump who said just 15 cases and they’re doing well 2 days later the first patient dies. Something Trump did that was absolutely right . Is blocking flights from Europe, but i m o all travel that ain’t necessary should be banned worldwide. Edit when I say Worldwide I meant all travel including domestic travel a 100% lock down just like the one that China did, but I doubt that people would accept that.
@Reuben Handel Coronavirus spreads more readily than the seasonal flu. That’s how exponential growth works.
@Orome there is no scientific basis for that claim.
If there were, then more people would have this than the regular flu
Chill bro, let natural selection do its job.
There’s kids out there that think cuz your black you don’t get the coronavirus 💀💀😂.. and they truly believe that lol
I’m Jay that’s ok kids are kids they believe anything and everything it’s sad when the adults believe it
@Andrew Parker Africa will be just fine its those of you with that neanderthal dna that need to worry
Blair Rich hahaha 💀
@Jessica jessica look up the chelsea player Hudson Odoi. Black and got corona.
@I’m Jay You might wanna fact check 🤔
Coronavirus: Yea I’m kinda a big deal now
Employer: I identify as an ostrich, I know nothing

Watch this link to see how to prevent getting infected
Stay home. Wear the mask if you go out.
God bless everyone! Stay Strong!
@Kong The population of the US is 327M. The world population is unfortunately 7.7B. How are you calculating 100M given a one percent death rate among those infected? And “per year,” since viruses don’t work that way?

@William Norman I’m of course talking about the world USA ain’t all that you know.
But USA may have more deaths because of diabetes obesity and such but at 2-3% that is about 1-2 million dead per yr

You just need to identify as non-infected that’s how biology works now
Lol
One. Joke.
Diarrhea Latte I just wanted to say ur name is both disgusting and hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Amellia, no such thing as biology
Take my like
I like statistics: However they do not matter if you die, no matter what the statistics are you are still dead.
@Boo CaCa98 I am in a vulnerable group. However my point was about statistics.
@GGO 80 It is not but if it turns into pneumonia I will be dead. For one thing I need a heart transplant.
Judith Aldridge Im sorry for that I will pray for you god will keep you safe 🙏🏻
Judith Aldridge you rest in gods hands. he will take you at the time he decides is right. trust in jesus and all things are possible
Syrnian exactly, the ones with weaker immune systems

Recession isn’t a scare. It’s a certainty
Mia D.. pls don’t panic. Everything is under control. Just wash your hands twice every minute for twenty secs
@Mr Brown are you joking?

I was at the mall and a girl dropped her hand sanitizer. I couldn’t tell if people grabbing it were trying to help her pick it up or trying to snatch it.
Here in Australia they have been stolen from workplaces and shopping centres, my work has chains on 5 bottles
CAN’T DO MUCH IF THERE ARE NO TESTS ….if only there was a pandemic response team trained to deal with such things….
