The number they should be reporting is respiratory condition hospital admissions, regardless of confirmed cause. -- nm - Max Mar 21, 10:01 6
- Right and capacity / ventilators available, is a coda to my point -- nm - JackDawson Mar 21, 10:03 4

    - As opposed to the anxiety currently caused by the total number ever infected in the history of the virus’ life ever? - JackDawson Mar 21, 10:12 1
      - I am not saying not to publish it, just that it would cause panic as the number of ventilators available went to zero. -- nm - Bacon Mar 21, 10:16

Not my point. I agree with them. I am just saying you can't have real hard numbers if everyone isn't tested. -- nm - Bacon Mar 21, 09:52 1
