Recording another session with @paulbloomatyale tomorrow. Which topics/questions should we hit?
The Covid-19 pandemic might hit poor countries such as India and Brazil even harder than rich countries. How can we leverage 'rational compassion' to help them, at a time when we're preoccupied with our own problems?

Thank you! No one thinks about the poor countries :( I've been obsessing about how it will hit my home country of Bolivia - and it doesn't look good.

I have been concerned about poor countries as well. The most populous poor countries (i.e. India, Brazil, Indonesia, etc) pose a particular risk to the global eradication of the novel coronavirus and the covid19 disease. I’m at a loss at what I would’ve done if I were the UN.

Why is the case fatality rate going up instead of down like we had suspected? Is it still lack of testing? Should we factor active cases into total cases, and deaths versus recovered besides just CFR? The numbers aren't consoling.

They're not - in studies where entire populations have been studied - e.g. the recent one in Germany - its around .37%. Dr. Jay Bhattacharya is doing another study, results friday, predicting CFR of .1%https://theathletic.com/1746724/2020/04/14/mlb-team-employees-will-be-the-subjects-of-the-u-s-s-largest-covid-19-antibody-study/?redirected=1 …

Can we add Africa into that question as well? There are reports of only a handful of ventilators within some of these countries.
