COVID-19

What to do

• Wash your hands (not compulsively, but often with proper procedures (what you see in every restraunt bathrrom etc) )
• Social Distancing (~1 meter gap between people in public)
• Cover Sneezez/Coughs
• Go to local medical facilities if sick
• Reduce non essential travel and/or do it via alternate means (Don't fly if able, etc)
• Self quarentine if you have recently traveled to an at risk area, or have com into contact with an infected person
• Follow CDC and other Official information
• Follow local efforts such as limits on work and meetings etc
• Consult medical professionals before doing anything
• Hydroxychloroquine - malaria meds that prevent this virus
• Tamiflu - antiviral

What NOT to do

• DON"T PANIC AND/OR HOARD FOOD/SUPPLIES
• Ignore guidlines etc (ie hold parties, refuse to quarentine... )

At Risk Groups

• Infants and young children
• Elderly
• Immunocomprimised (Due to disease or medication: ie un-medicated HIV, immunosuppresants, chemotherapy etc
• People with little acces to medical care (due to region and local infastructure etc)
• Most other people have low lethality rates ( single digit percentages untill 80+ years of age )
• Main concern for people not in these groups is to not make yourself a vector, you will get sick, and it will be bad like flu ( IF INFECTED ) but the real concern is infecting one of those groups

Working Doc by Colby

• Map of USA cases by Johns Hopkins - [1]
• Korea and Italy are testing everyone
• Key actions: increase ventillator parts, and open source testing procedures
• Open source protocols
• Confirmed cases is 5000 in the USA.
• Vaccine development -
• USA has 1/8 the estimated number of ventillators needed -
• Early 1918 Pandemic - flue - took a rest over summer and then 5% died. Immunity was developed. In second part, virus mutated to become more deadly.
• Vaccine companies - Wichita KS company UV C
• Live attenuated vaccine vs deactivated vaccine
• Rational vaccines -

Data

• 6000 hospitals in the USA [2]
• 2 million potential cases

Genetics

• Sequencing - it's an RNA based virus, more susceptible to mutation
• There is a gene map of where these live worldwide

Next Step

• Links to original sources - Good Resource for building masks
• Guide on - how to collaborate
• OSE guide on 3D protected
• Do not include prescription medications
• M95 masks, self-manufactured ventillators, 3D printers, printed parts
• Fundraise to build 3D printers - and ventillators
• Stock up on parts - for making a ton of ventillator parts
• https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/D3D_Pro
• Volunteers to print out tons of parts and produce a 3D printer for any hospital
• Donation to produce a boatload of printers.
• Funding - get someone full time on researching a list of arganizations providing support for covid work

• An intresting article on the use of 3D Printed Venthilator Valves when the supply of the Proper ones ran out in an Italian Hospital (probably not as safe/tested/reliable etc, so not saying MEDICAL TECH HAS NO USE, but it is intresting to see 3D Printing filling a need of such a critical resource and "getting the job done". Also it was all external so it thus had far less requirements (no need for biocompatability/autoclavable etc)
