| Greetings, QuickTake readers! In this edition: Spain records deadliest day yet, Prince Charles tests positive, and Australia releases recovered koalas back into the wild.  Getting social to fight Covid-19 To fight the first pandemic of the social media age, a medical hive mind has sprung into action online, helping doctors from China to Italy to the U.S. potentially outpace a virus for the first time in history. Thousands of health experts are turning to specialized Facebook groups, Twitter threads and podcasts to piece together the best Covid-19 treatments in realtime, as old-school protocols lag behind the fast-moving coronavirus. Crowdsourced intel has already debunked the rule book, amid a medical supplies shortage and conflicting official advice, helping health workers "learn others' mistakes so people won't die," one expert said. - When standard respiratory illness care advised first using an oxygen mask, then a BiPap machine, then a ventilator, Facebook lectures by Italian pulmonary MDs proved ventilators should be used sooner.
- When a California internist noticed, and studies found, that some patients got sicker after taking ibuprofen, a French health minister tweeted acetaminophen was better, convincing some to use Tylenol.

Highly quotable "Mild symptoms but in good health." 71-year-old Prince Charles, the heir to the British throne, tested positive for Covid-19 and is self-isolating in Scotland, his office said. His last public engagement was March 12. "Frustration, of course." Four-time Olympic gold medalist Allison Schmitt says she has "mixed emotions" about the decision to postpone the Tokyo summer games, "but as human beings, we're able to get through that." "We are the 2% that may die." James Davies, who has cerebral palsy, says he worries that people with disabilities are more at risk than ever due to increased isolation and extra challenges brought on by Covid-19. This is not normal "Can't even give it away." Gas prices in the U.S. are headed for depths not seen since the Great Depression, with retail prices at the pump expected to reach a 16-year-low of $1.49 a gallon by mid-April.
