Usually. Carol. Whats going on in the time lag between the beginning of the disease in the end of the disease that may deter and really. Recalling or death and since that distance between the 2 points and maybe as long as 234 weeks maybe in some patients of course when we check the ponytails deaths we should remember that the disease started many weeks before and therefore it represents the end on what was going on at that time the nominal dates will remain.

New york state Governor Andrew Cuomo says coronavirus cases there may be starting to plateau but in a briefing on monday he warned against complacency and the extent that a closure of nonessential businesses and schools until the end of april andrew cuomo says hospitalisations have the kleine the along with the missions to intensive care units signaling a possible flattening of the curve more than 4700 people have died in new york thats the highest death toll in any american state this is an enemy that we have underestimated from day one and we have paid the price dearly. Well the numbers are a little like they may be turning yea its over no its not in other places it made that mistake on congress made a mistake south korea has made that mistake and were not going to make that mistake well she joins us live now from washington by skype its interesting listening to andrew cuomo there is being incredibly careful about not being too optimistic about it about not seeming complacent what is the situation like in new york because looking at the figures it does seem that potentially the numbers are plateauing. The terror group can target a very high rate and so yourself mentioned about 599 people in new york state between sunday and monday morning so although thats relatively similar level to what weve seen over the last several days in new york and still a lot of people i obviously he was also very cautious because i think the reason maybe some sort of clatter if that is indeed what were seeing here is because the social distancing measures all work it so the last thing the governor wants to do suggest ok things are getting back to normal now we cannot relax and as you said this is extend it is extended the closure the fact the push or the state of the month so thats thats thats the reason of course but it is fascinating i was looking at the university of washington model but when different states will reach their peak numbers of deaths the peak the peak demand for possible resources and its one of many models its been going for a while many people have been using not peer review are they but certainly has been relatively accurate up to this point im just looking at new york state and its putting this model the peak fatalities of april 9th peak demand resources actually lower the use of resources april 9th peak fatalities april 10th so thats this week so this is this move just by and large in keeping with the models that out there sort of people can allocate resources and these photos all based on well the states began their social distancing programs and they also rely on the social distancing continuing until may at least but it would appear that the models seem to be seem to really be accurate but you know theres a pattern is a pattern is very high and as a Surgeon General one just on sunday this is going to be this you know a lot of death this week it could be comparable to povertys thats pretty shocking just to hear that and she had there is another White House CoronavirusTask Force Briefing in about 45 minutes so what are we expecting to hear from that.
