Wet markets are open air markets and are a part of life not only in China but all over Asia. They are probably prevalent around t world in fact. Despite that they do not usually spawn pandemics. The peculiar issue about the wuhan market was the presence of a exotic meat market where live examples of different species of wild animals were being confined in close proximity to each other thus allowing diseases to pass between them and to humans. That factor is not found in almost all wet markets.

March 28 - Italy Update
New, currently positive cases: 3,651, down from 4,401 yesterday. Today there were 889 reported deaths from COVID-19 vs 969 deaths. Of those who passed away in the past 24 hours, 542 were in the Lombardy region. One good number that seems to be rising is those who have recovered and have been dismissed from hospitals, with 1434 over the past 24 hours bring to a total of 12,384 recovered/dismissed vs 10,023 deaths. To date, 429,526 tests have been administered, currently at the rate of 35,000 per day, currently increasing 8% each day. http://opendatadpc.maps.arcgis.com/a...c82fe38d4138b1 Angelo Borelli, the head of the Civil Protection Authority, returned to lead the evening press conference with the announcement of the day's numbers. He had been missing a few days as a result of a fever and being tested for COVID-19, which was negative. When asked about "re-opening the country," which former Prime Minister Matteo Renzi recently advocated should take place for factories before Easter and schools on May 4, Borelli said that it's too early to provide any predictions. Borelli said the government will be assessing the situation in the coming days. The current lockdown is in place until April 3, and is then subject to extension or modification. Not to defend (or join the criticism of) Renzi, but he appears to have advocated a "new normal" of re-opening with masks, gloves, and maintaining social distance. He said that if we wait for a vaccine, which could be a year or more away, the risk is to die of hunger instead of the virus. https://www.repubblica.it/politica/2...ole-252538917/ Last edited by MChild62; 03-28-2020 at 11:47 AM. |

I'm seeing Italy is reporting over 70,000 active cases with 3,856 serious/critical reporting. The chart you posted shows 92,472 total cases with 12,384 healed meaning 70,088 active. Italy is reporting 5,974 new cases today.

If you go the the JHU site and click on a country name on the left, and on the Daily Increase tab in the lower right, you can see that Italy, Spain and France look like they're finally bending the curve, at least in new cases. Of course, this could possibly be skewed by testing procedures, but it's looking encouraging that lockdowns are starting to work with the projected 2 week lag.

Italy is worrisome for the US. The US' lockdown procedure so far as not nearly as effective as Italy's and Italy's hasn't even started to decrease yet. We haven't hit peak yet in US and the plateau for the US will last a lot longer.

At least according to that site it looks like Italy's slope is going negative - fewer new cases each day. |

Our lock downs started later than Italy. Also it will take a while for the Mardi-Gras, Spring Break and lock down delay to appear.

https://www.worldometers.info/corona...country/italy/ This is what I'm focusing on... how long does the plateau last before it starts to decrease? Because the US has been far less stringent with its protocol and that plateau AFTER the peak will most likely last longer in the US.

From the same site, here is curve of new, current positives each day in Italy from 24 February to 28 March.
Screen Shot 2020-03-28 at 11.27.59 PM.jpg Although the lockdown in the northern regions started earlier, the national lockdown went into effect March 9 and enforcement was gradually tightened. During this same period, testing has been increasing each day (currently 36,000 per day). It seems that the social distancing efforts are having an impact, but there's definitely a lag of around 12 days. Since enforcement was tightened a week ago, we should hopefully see greater benefits in a week. To help people get through this, the government today announced additional financial support to those who do not have jobs and a program of food cards for those most in need to purchase essential items, with supermarkets agreeing to apply a further 10% discount on purchases made with the cards. |

Unfortunately in the USA, since there is no real lockdown and mainly just stay at home protocols, there will likely be a higher peak and a longer delay before we start to see a decrease in daily new cases. |

I'd suggest that there's a case for looking at the US much more like Europe than as a monolithic whole.
