Interesting to note on Smooth's post (and noted by KD)

Plaquenil which has weak ACE2 blockade doesn't appear to be a savior of any kind in our patient population.

Karl, I get the hospital spread issue - in fact when I was in the hospital for an operation a year ago, the doctors and nurses were all insistent that I only spend 1 day recovering and leave asap due to potential bug issues.

One issue that is hard to explain is that most of the new cases in Taiwan are from people who have recently traveled. It would seem they would likely infect many others on the flight if they were contagious, but the numbers are only like +9 or +16 new cases here a day, some which are from their family members. It seems like the new cases should be much more.

FYI: 283 cases in TW, 55 in Guam
