In college, if you get sick, you go to class anyway.

In college, if you get sick, you go to class anyway.

I have never gone to class sick. If I get sick I email the professor saying I won't be able to make it to class, or if I need to miss class for any other reason.

Additionally, many professors will let you take an exam late or turn in an assignment late if needed. All you have to do is email them and ask, assuming you have a legitimate reason. Most professors  won't explicitly say they do this, because they don't want students taking advantage of it, but that doesn't mean they don't.

The mortality rate here has gone up a lot recently. Yesterday it was at around 4.2% I think. Today it went up to 5.12%

Update: Now it's at 6.47%

[Ianiant]

I think the U.S. has about a 4% mortality rate now.

All the advice they gave out in the early stages of this like "don't come to work if you have a, b and c" I was doing anyway.

Spoiler:

Sorry for reply too late, but I have points who you can't take in count. Is true who the mexican states are reporting many more cases of pneumonia than COVID-19, but the pneumonia cases reported during this season is common and the majority of the states are reporting less cases of pneumonia than the last year. So actually there is no enough evidence who the significally of that cases of pneumonia are really the SARS-CoV-2. Unfortunatelly the people with pneumonia can get sick with the SARS-CoV-2, so is important they like the rest of citizens always stay in home.

With respect of the shot up of the letality rate is mainly because the hospitals takes many time to confirm a case of COVID-19 than the low time taked to confirm a death by COVID-19, since they need at least 2 or 3 days to get the analysis to confirm them, so the cases are more real to death cases than confirmed cases at a day and there are people who unfortunately deaths before get the analysis.

And with respect of we deserve a much better government, this happens with all federal and locals governments, we also want to get finally a better government each legislature, personally I have more disgust with locals ones than with the federal, since on case of my city and state the local goverment makes the federal looks good and I'm not talking about smokescreens, and thanks to wish us that!

Yo veo, gracias por tu respuesta!

Which countries and territories are testing the most per capita?

The United Arab Emirates has performed over 600K tests in a country of just under 10M people.

The following countries and territories marked in blue have tested over 1.0% of their entire population (note that China has not provided numbers; it's possible it has done that):

Someone local died yesterday/early hours today. He was the delivery driver for a local kebab shop. Never met him but by looks of things he was a well liked person
