Start out, practice social distancing, wash your hands and wear a mask when in public . What is your risk of catching it then try this widget from Mathematica ? What is the real death rate for COVID-19 ? Is a tricky question. 1. Death records suggest some are being missed in final counts . 2. About 30% of COVID Deaths may have not been reported. 3..  Now, numerous studies — using a range of methods — estimate that in many countries some 5 to 10 people will die for every 1,000 people with COVID-19. The CDC has a laundry list of conditions that can complicate COVID-19.

A few people noticed the distinct lack of materials concerning masks and wearing them. This is a problem since Washington state businesses were required to mask up July 7th .

Let's look at the beginning and problems: If you listen to one of the protest groups then you hear a lot of statements concerning the Constitutionality of Governor's Inslees stay at home orders. When you start look at the history of our country then you see that pandemics are nothing new. While  George Washington  Battled the British, he was also battling smallpox, not only did he use quarantines, he also used mandated vaccines. George  Washington wrote a letter to the President of Congress in 1787 , concerning the necessary central authority to "provide for the Interest and Safety of all"states.  Covid 19 didn't disappear in a miracle nor did it weaken " when we get into April " as Trump was early to downplay the pandemic. There are multiple accounts of the federal government taking needed supplies from states.  1.   2.    3.   4 .  while sending them to foreign countries like  China . A  whistleblower stepped forward with charges of cron

One of the most important questions to ask.  Why would I insist on a life insurance policy for my child? If you are looking at insurance for just the death benefits, then it can seem cold to consider insuring a child. Most are comfortable with the illusion that kids do not die in America. However, when you take a deeper look at it then you understand how important it is to carry a policy. It's our job as parents to protect and guide our children through the world.  Life insurance is not so much as looking at what happens if they die. It is what happens when they live. Are you setting your child up with a future? Are you working with developing a financial strategy that positions them in a better place than you started? You may have heard about pre-existing conditions. Life insurance operates in a manner that if you develop and illness or condition then you may no longer qualify for an underwritten life insurance policy in the future. This can occur at any age; yo

When the administration announced an expansion of tele-medicine , we looked at each other around the office in wonderment. At Suzie Health Solutions , we have seen an increase in these services over the last couple of years. There are even companies that offer it as a stand alone product. To highlight here is the list of companies with their tele-medicine numbers. Some have applications that you can use your smart phone or tablet. Most of these are available to plan holders at no or low cost. Some can provide prescriptions and can be incredibly useful if you travel or live in an area that getting to a doctor can be difficult. Set them up in advance of needing them.

Thank you to the Governor, the Office of the Insurance Commissioner and having some good people, there are resources available despite the quarantine efforts to slow the virus. Here at Suzie Health Solutions we have been at the front line helping people through this. No we don't charge nor when we enroll people into Healthplanfinder plans during special enrollments do we get paid for them. Governor Inslee has put a two week closure to all Restaurants, bars, entertainment and recreational facilities as well as limits on large gatherings. Yes, it means that we can not go to the gym or get our haircut. It also means a ton of folks are into emergency funds to try to pay the bills. This shutdown is effective until March 31st. This " Flattening of the curve " is an important tool to fight the Pandemic.  The theory is traced back to a 2007 report to decompress the burden on the healthcare system so that it wasn't overwhelmed. It allows things like a drive thru test sit

It is time to talk about Public Charge in Washington State. Here at Suzie Health Solutions, we have helped many immigrants and their families. Since we are licensed, we fall under a few laws that require us to protect our customer's information from prying eyes. Gramm-Leach- Bliley Act  and  HIPAA  to name just two. It's why we secure our office with encrypted computers, locking file cabinets and alarm systems to name a few of the protections that we have put into place. Page 1 This is the update from February 2020. People have rights. Each immigration situation is unique. There is free and confidential help available. Here are some of the highlights. 1. The new federal public charge rules do not affect most immigrants. For example if you are a Lawful Permanent resident then you are not affected unless you leave the US for 180 days and seek to reenter! Humanitarian immigrants are not affected. 2. Many public programs are not considered in the federal public charge
