Medical Iceland: 50% Coronavirus cases are Asymptomatic
2020.04.01 07:12

Iceland lab's testing suggests 50% of coronavirus cases have no symptoms
Some of the revelations have been stark. Although fewer than 1% of the tests came back positive for the virus, the company's founder Dr. Kári Stefánsson told CNN that around 50% of those who tested positive said they were asymptomatic, confirming multiple studies that show that asymptomatic, or mildly symptomatic, people have played an important role in spreading the virus.

How about uninsured Americans? Will they have the tests done? Will they go to doctors?
They will walk around with tons viruses to spray around the community. I am not sure what
Trump did on Obama care on young people.

How much home made mask is effective using ordinary cloth?
My wife made one as a sample with leftover clothes!
How do you keep the one/mask you already used for the second time use without special treat?
Would appreciate for the answers!

(PBS News Hour on wearing masks)

Unfortunately, American people were lead to the wrong idea in the beginning.
The Chinese said we should all wear masks. They are the pioneers and experts in this.
However, now, I am glad that Americans are getting into the idea that all should wear a mask
when we are exposed to the public.
We will never know if we are infected by Coronavirus at any moment even without any symptoms.
Maybe, we don't have to wear it when we are at home without any guests.

Should everybody wear masks during the pandemic? I think we should when one expects to
meet strangers. When tests are not done enough and there are asymptomatic patients possibly
around you, you yourself may be infected with Coronavirus. If you don't wear the mask, you may be
spreading viruses to others freely. Masks are not suppose to protect you from the virus, but will
reduce the amount of viruses coming out of the patients. But you don't know who the patients are
in U.S. because the tests are not done enough. I do not think U.S. will do enough tests to do
effective quarantine. Unfortunately it is too late. Thanks to Trump.
