When you consider that they estimate about 12K deaths from swine flu over 12 months or so, that is a pretty big number for a single day.
Over 500 just in New York.
Still over 12k in the hospital in NY

Let's hope it stalls out in NY soon.....

If China is not reporting correct numbers, the curve may not flatten for 6 months. I think the people that have had the
virus and recovered, need to go back to work, the ones that never have had it, stay home. Antibody testing needs to be done.

But the worst is yet to come.
Look at the PPEs, no N95 masks, ... for this ER doctor dealing with Covid19 patients

Spain has almost as many deaths, over 9% death rate.
Not necessarily ethnic related

I saw somewhere that Spain has 260,000 Italians living there. Also: https://en.wikipedia...alians_in_Spain
Maybe not, but someone posted NYC has largest population of 60+ of any other city in US, maybe that's it.

Interesting fact ... during the AIDS epidemic scientist speculated that those blood lines that survived the Black Death made it harder for HIV to infect. Sub Sahara Africa did not have the plague to the extent of Europe.

well when you say italian ancestry you don' t say much. In Veneto we have a rate of mortality of 3% vs a rate of mortality in italy of 9%. So as you can see even under this point of view italy is just a paper country. It has strong ethnic differences alongside itself. But I can' t believe that 58% of the people of NY have italian ancestry. Maybe more correctly 58% of the population of NY have an italian ancestor inside their ancestry tree filled with many other ancestors coming from other european countries or other parts of the world. That would be more correct. The same applies to myself. For sure I have a swedish ancestor because of the lombard colonization of whole northern italy, not just of lombardy where the lombards left their name while their DNA heritage was more largely left in the less populated north east of italy. But in comparison surely I have a lot more other ancestors coming from other parts of europe. That said I don' t think the covid spread is related to a particular ethnic group. In NY people live close to each other given the population' s density which if far larger than it is in other places. And covid likes highly populated places. That is the most reasonable.....reason, I believe, not the ethnic group.
