I visited him for a week over New Year's 2017-18. Taking the train from Milan to Pavia, I was surprised how similar the rural and agricultural landscape was to Mississippi. Magnolia trees are very common in that region as well.<br /><br />When I heard the news of the devastation wrought by COVID-19 in Lombardy I was saddened and thought about the similarities between Lombardy and Mississippi. Were are neither immune nor exempt.<br /><br />Let's take heed and learn from their desperate straits. Use best practices and stay well.Victor Fleitasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-71691103678188591032020-03-20T09:54:34.018-05:002020-03-20T09:54:34.018-05:00It's time for all of the mask and sanitizer ho...It's time for all of the mask and sanitizer hoarders and scalpers to make a sizeable donation to their local healthcare facility.

You can’t look at numbers right now because they are incomplete. The disease takes time to kill. Even though there may just be one death and 50 confirmed cases, it is inevitable there are more cases at the lab waiting results (it takes days), and people who have the virus that may not die for another week or two. <br /><br />There’s enough variance in the state and local responses that when this is finally over we will be able to reasonably estimate the lives that would have been lost under different reactions. Only then can we tell if the impact was worth the effort. However, to suggest we do nothing because the numbers are low at the beginning is insane. We already have ample evidence of how that will overwhelm the medical system like in Italy. Is it possible we can “flatten the curve” too much? Of course. But to let it run rampant among the 30%+ of our population that is at risk because of age or underlying conditions is unacceptable.<br /><br />We’ll learn from this and figure out what policies work so we can be more effective next time.

Clearly, with what's happening all around us, it's tough to focus on things that are a world away.<br /><br />However, I think it's important to take a moment to recognize what is happening in Italy, especially in the Lombardy region. The situation there is almost indescribable.<br /><br />Italy is far from a third-world country. Its health system is ranked 2nd in the world according to the World Health Organization. The Lombardy Region is considered the top healthcare system in the country. By comparison, the US health system is ranked 37th in the world according to WHO. Some could certainly argue the WHO’s ranking methodology, including me, but I mention this to illustrate only that Italy has good, modern healthcare like us.<br /><br />Italian Biologist Enrico Bucci says the numbers coming out of Italy don't even mean anything anymore. Their testing capacity is down to virtually nothing. The hospitals are overrun. Bucci says even symptomatic people are no longer being tested in the Lombardy Region, and people are dying in their own homes because there is no longer access to hospitals.<br /><br />Italy's health system has absolutely been brought to its knees in a matter weeks. They have completely run out of personal protective equipment in most cases - no masks, no gloves, no other means of protection. Yet, the doctors and nurses there continue to work around the clock with no protection, trying to save as many people as possible, at great personal risk to their own health.<br /><br />New figures released today show that nearly 2700 Italian healthcare workers have already become infected with COVID-19. As a result, healthcare workers are in a critical shortage and those that remain are working unending shifts.<br /><br />13 doctors in Lombardy have already died from COVID-19. Countless others are infected. Hundreds of nurses are now in critical condition in the hospitals where they once worked.<br /><br />They are all heroes, every one.<br /><br />In some cases, soldiers have been brought in to haul away the dead and health care workers said they have stopped counting bodies.<br /><br />“Unfortunately we can’t contain the situation in Lombardy,” Daniela Confalonieri, a nurse in Milan told the New York Post. “There’s a high level of contagion and we’re not even counting the dead anymore.”<br /><br />“Look at the news that’s coming out of Italy and take note of what the situation is like,” she said. “It’s unimaginable.”<br /><br />An Italian Army spokesman told the New York Post that 15 trucks and 50 soldiers had to be deployed to remove the dead from Bergamo, northeast of Milan, because the town cemetery had been overwhelmed. I've included a photo of the convoy below so you can see what they're seeing.<br /><br />Just a few weeks ago, Italy was functioning normally. Like all of us, Italians were going about their lives, doing the things they always do. Most experts agree that Italy was late taking aggressive measures to prevent the spread.<br /><br />The example in Italy is why public health authorities in the United States are pleading with us to take this seriously. Our population is more widespread and we have the opportunity to avoid having what's happening in Italy happen here.<br /><br />Yet, so many among us still refuse to self isolate. All of us likely have friends are family who are healthcare workers. If we won't do it for ourselves, let's do it for the men in women in our healthcare system who are on the front lines. We can make it so they never have to face the situation that their peers in Italy are currently facing. That doesn't have to be our fate.<br /><br />It's in all of our hands.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-676598098516130552020-03-20T00:27:06.586-05:002020-03-20T00:27:06.586-05:00On Sunday La.
