UTAH COVID-19 INFO - updates on 1st post

How would you feel about a camping trip? No run to the grocery store necessary, I have all my propane and everything.
Only would need to get gas and I can wear latex gloves when I touch the pump.

How do you feel about going out to get pick up orders from local restaurants? Good to support local business or bad to leave the house at all?

@Gameface Continue to support restaurants through delivery as mush as possible. Sterilize everything once home. Everyone, keep ordering out and sterilizing!

I don't live in Utah anymore, but a lot of my family and loved oned still do. Thanks for posting accurate info on the state of the virus in Utah. I'll be checking in from time to time to see your updates.
 
Everyone start here:
Even though the state is behind (they need a full stay at home order NOW), their website is great. Through list of resources and advisement.

DOMO has a great tracker, my favorite so far.

We've been meeting with the State daily over the last few weeks. In terms of economic relief, Utah is way ahead of the country. But we need to lock down for a few weeks, and Herbert is hesitating. THIS IS A HUGE MISTAKE. We need to take action now and bite the bullet. The next few weeks are gonna be brutal folks.

Yes, I’m curious about this too. Six feet was the suggestion forever but I saw something a few days ago whereas those in China now think 25 feet may be more appropriate because of how mists can travel. I’ve only been within 25 feet of someone once (15 feet) in the last 20 days. Not counting my family of course.

Here's a troubling graph for the death rate stats:



What it shows is that South Korea did really well containing the disease and their healthcare system never got overwhelmed which resulted in few people dying during the peak of the infection(mostly the most vulnerable old and sick people, with multiple comorbidities), but even when the cases starting falling the deaths kept relatively steady for weeks and months after the peak. What this shows is - if not overrrun the healthcare system will be able to keep a lot of people alive for weeks and even months, but some significant portion of them will ultimately die.

If you remember South Korea was touted as an example of low case fatality rate at the peak of the epidemic at about 0.6%. Well more than a month later that rate has tripled and their CFR right now is 1.8% ...
