The nation’s doctors and nurses are pleading for ventilators, masks, and other personal protection equipment while they fight the COVID-19 outbreak.“We’re trying to get more ventilators for the sickest patients," said Dr. Chris Farnitino, who runs the Contra Costa County Health Deptartment. "We’re trying to get more personal protective equipment, gloves, masks gowns, eye shields for all of our health care workers and first responders. We need all of the above."Contra Costa County is one county in the San Francisco Bay Area. For his team, time is running short.“As far as when we need it, we are already seeing our cases increase exponentially," he said. "We think we may be a week or two behind where New York City is."The Bay Area is one of the areas around the country ramping up for a massive influx of COVID-19 patients in the coming days and weeks. Right now, they don’t have what they need.“Currently, in Contra Costa County we have about 1,000 hospital beds, and approximately 150 of those are intensive care unit beds,” said Farnitino. He says that number needs to at least double. Nearly 1.2 million people live in that county.New York is facing similar, if not even more dire, circumstances. New York Gov. Cuomo described the situation as a bullet train hitting New York City, and they need more supplies for the coming weeks.“We do not yet have secured a supply for three weeks from now, four weeks from now, five weeks from now, but we are still shopping,” Coumo said in a press conference. The situation is serious, if not dire. But there is some help coming.“We, by the way, now have six California companies, six that want to manufacture gowns," Gov. Gavin Newsome, California (D) told constiuents in a press conference. "We just had a conversation with 25 providers that want to start 3-D printing masks in the state of California."And companies like 3M, which manufacturers the sought-after N95 masks, says they have increased production to produce almost 100 million N95 masks per month.And you can help too. There are lots of examples of ways to donate money or PPE directly to the healthcare workers who need it. One of the easiest and simplest may be to go to 2199

The Congressional Budget Office said Monday that the U.S. economy could be .7 trillion smaller over the next decade than it otherwise would have been if Congress does not mitigate the economic damage from the coronavirus.The CBO, which had already issued a report forecasting a severe economic impact over the next two years, expanded that forecast to show that the severity of the economic shock could depress growth for far longer.The new estimate said that over the 2020-2030 period, total GDP output could be .7 trillion lower than CBO had been projecting as recently as January. That would equal 5.3% of lost GDP over the coming decade.After adjusting for inflation, CBO said the lost output would total .9 trillion, a loss of 3% of inflation-adjusted GDP.CBO called this a “significant markdown” in GDP output as a result of the pandemic.“Business closures and social distancing measures are expected to curtail consumer spending, while the recent drop in energy prices is projected to severely reduce U.S. investment in the energy sector,” CBO Director Philip Swagel said in a letter.“Recent legislation will, in CBO’s assessment, partially mitigate the deterioration in economic conditions,” Swagel said in the letter to Sens. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. The two had requested the information as a way to pressure Republicans to follow the lead of the House and pass more economic relief.“Last week we learned that over 40 million Americans lost their jobs as a result of this horrific pandemic,” Schumer and Sanders said in a joint statement. “Today, the CBO tells us that if current trends continue, we will see a jaw-dropping trillion reduction in economic growth over the next decade.”Schumer and Sanders said Republicans should stop blocking legislation to provide more assistance given that 40 million workers have lost their jobs already.“In order to avoid the risk of another Great Depression, the Senate must act with a fierce sense of urgency,” Schumer and Sanders said.The CBO is forecasting that the GDP, which shrank at a 5% rate in the first three months of this year, will fall at a 37.7% rate in the current April-June quarter, the biggest quarterly decline on record.The CBO also issued a separate report detailing a cost estimate for a .4 trillion COVID-19 rescue bill that passed the Democratic-controlled House in mid-May. That legislation is built around 5 billion in aid to state and local governments, another ,200 payment to most American workers, and additional aid to colleges and local school districts. The price tag is slightly higher than a back-of-the-envelope figure provided by Democrats when the measure passed.Senate Republicans have dismissed the proposal as a wish list but have yet to unveil any proposal to counter it. 2817

Thanks to Facebook and Instagram's partial outage on Wednesday, users were able to see some of the social networking sites' artificial intelligence at work. Users who visited both sites using a computer browser could see that Facebook and Instagram photos contain basic descriptions of who and what is in a photo (for instance clouds, clothing, people, etc.). In one photo, the A.I. could figure out that a person was wearing a suit.Here is what Facebook's website says about how it processes information in photos: "We are creating visual sensors derived from digital images and videos that extract information about our environment, to further enable Facebook services to automate tasks that people automatically do today visually. Our ultimate goal, to automatically, and intelligently enhance people’s experiences across Facebook products."A request for further comment has been left for Facebook. Facebook's website 933

Telluride is a small mountain town in Colorado that is famous for its world-class ski slopes.But soon, it might be known for its effort to fight the coronavirus."We were approached by a couple that lives in town, long time locals who happen to own a biomedical company," said Dr. Sharon Grundy, San Miguel County Public Health Officer"They were gracious and offered the testing for free to our entire county which is just an unheard-of opportunity," said Grace Franklin, Public Health Director, San Miguel CountyUnited Biomedical decided to launch its new coronavirus test in San Miguel County."This affects every area of the country and by creating a very clear and consistent cohort, like a small enough group that you can test everybody you can create the model that you can show how that would work," said Lou Reese who lives in Telluride with his wife Mei Mei Hu and their kids. They're also the co-CEOs of the company United Biomedical.The test developed by the company is different from the nasal and throat swabs you're used to knowing. "The test is a serum blood screening ELISA," said Reese."Antibodies for COVID-19, so a completely different test than the nasal swab," Grundy added.The test draws blood and analyzes if your immune system is fighting COVID-19. The test is similar to a test that detects HIV.The county says they expect to get test results in 48 hours. So far, the fastest they've gotten results from a swab test is five days.The plan is to test all of the county's 8,000 residents twice, 14 days apart. People sign up - but no one has to take it. Though the residents we talked to say they're eager to participate."This morning, I was able to fill out an application to take the test," said Kathleen Cole, who lives in Telluride."More information is always going to be helpful, and we'll let the experts take it from there," said John Neumann, who lives in Telluride.The health department says testing the county's entire population will help them make decisions about how to fight the virus best."By seeing how the disease is spreading in our county, or not, how can we start to lift and allow little pieces of normalcy come back in, in a way that will still protect our residents and minimize the burden on our medical facilities," said Franklin.Reese says after San Miguel County, he expects to scale the test across the country, though he wouldn't reveal exactly where."We went from, a week ago, ten thousand tests a week to now between one and two hundred thousand a week, and in the next month, we'll be at a million a day," said Reese. As the pandemic continues to happen, this is just another weapon in the fight against coronavirus. 2680
