"The FDNY says it responded to 2,192 cases of deaths at home between March 20th and April 5th, or about 130 a day, an almost 400 percent increase from the same time period last year. (In 2019, there were just 453 cardiac arrest calls where a patient died, according to the FDNY.)
That number has been steadily increasing since March 30th, with 241 New Yorkers dying at home Sunday — more than the number of confirmed COVID-19 deaths that occurred citywide that day. On Monday night, the city reported 266 new deaths, suggesting the possibility of a 40% undercount of coronavirus-related deaths."

"This global pandemic is different, but New Orleans is uniquely susceptible to it because of the epidemics of poverty, environmental racism and a lack of access to health care and preventive medicine. Largely because of that, the heavily African-American population here has high rates of asthma, diabetes and hypertension, all of which increase one’s risk of death from Covid-19. We’re now seeing the consequences, as African-Americans make up an estimated 70 percent of the death toll in Louisiana."

* What happened to Tuesday's news? The prep phase turned out to be massive and by the time i got to the article reading phase i wasn't taking that much in. The bit i managed went up on tumblr but I was too tired to clean up the aggregation for posting on dreamwidth.
Given how late I had to stay up to make this happen, odds are tomorrow's morning edition won't post.
I'm not sick. It's allergies kicking my ass. There is also the irony that while many people are having a lot of extra time, the things I do are ramped up to eleven. I just needed rest. I generally do this seven days a week and sometimes it's A LOT. It's very much A LOT right now.

"The FDNY says it responded to 2,192 cases of deaths at home between March 20th and April 5th, or about 130 a day, an almost 400 percent increase from the same time period last year. (In 2019, there were just 453 cardiac arrest calls where a patient died, according to the FDNY.)
That number has been steadily increasing since March 30th, with 241 New Yorkers dying at home Sunday — more than the number of confirmed COVID-19 deaths that occurred citywide that day. On Monday night, the city reported 266 new deaths, suggesting the possibility of a 40% undercount of coronavirus-related deaths."

"This global pandemic is different, but New Orleans is uniquely susceptible to it because of the epidemics of poverty, environmental racism and a lack of access to health care and preventive medicine. Largely because of that, the heavily African-American population here has high rates of asthma, diabetes and hypertension, all of which increase one’s risk of death from Covid-19. We’re now seeing the consequences, as African-Americans make up an estimated 70 percent of the death toll in Louisiana."

* What happened to Tuesday's news? The prep phase turned out to be massive and by the time i got to the article reading phase i wasn't taking that much in. The bit i managed went up on tumblr but I was too tired to clean up the aggregation for posting on dreamwidth.
Given how late I had to stay up to make this happen, odds are tomorrow's morning edition won't post.
I'm not sick. It's allergies kicking my ass. There is also the irony that while many people are having a lot of extra time, the things I do are ramped up to eleven. I just needed rest. I generally do this seven days a week and sometimes it's A LOT. It's very much A LOT right now.
