Ain’t no brand-new about it - if you want to fan the flames, at least use actual facts.
In a previous FR post it was suggested that an infrared drum heat sauna would kill the virus.
Manila on CV lockdown.
Manila Corona Virus Mar 13, Our Fate is Sealed.
Sure as shit stinks, they announce it 2 days ahead of time and the city flees.
Seen this story before many times.
Our Fate is sealed
Sick people caught fleeing. Flew all over the place ahead of the cops. If they had turned off their cell phones, more likely not caught. See the video below too. Masses of the stupid...

See 23 and 24. Outbreak in 90* Manila.
The only reason for this is government bureaucracy. There's no reason that the several potential vaccines already developed can't start production TODAY. The only downside is that they may not be effective. So, the government can issue an insurance policy guaranteeing that production costs will be returned if the FDA fails to approve the drug for use.
With the congress having a contest to see which party can spend the most billions on the Wuhan Virus Crisis, what's an extra few hundred thousand dollars to guarantee production by this fall?

Since there are now cases in Sub-Sahara Africa, It’ll be interesting if cases there remain low or explode. If they explode, well we can kiss the temperature theory goodby. If they stay low, then there may be something to it.
Caused by a variant of the same virus that causes the common cold.
What about altitude and exposure to ultraviolet rays? As in Albuquerque New Mexico, at 5200 feet ASL?
Thanks.
In the present study, we have demonstrated that SARS CoV can survive at least two weeks after drying at temperature and humidity conditions found in an air-conditioned environment. The virus is stable for 3 weeks at room temperature in a liquid environment but it is easily killed by heat at 56°C [132.8] for 15 minutes [9]. This indicates that SARS CoV is a stable virus that may potentially be transmitted by indirect contact or fomites. These results may indicate that contaminated surfaces may play a major role in transmission of infection in the hospital and the community.
In this study, we showed that high temperature at high relative humidity has a synergistic effect on inactivation of SARS CoV viability while lower temperatures and low humidity support prolonged survival of virus on contaminated surfaces. The environmental conditions of countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand are thus not conducive to the prolonged survival of the virus. In countries such as Singapore and Hong Kong where there is a intensive use of air-conditioning, transmission largely occurred in well-air-conditioned environments such as hospitals or hotels. Further, a separate study has shown that during the epidemic, the risk of increased daily incidence of SARS was 18.18-fold higher in days with a lower air temperature than in days with a higher temperature in Hong Kong [24] and other regions [15–17].
Taken together, these observations may explain why some Asian countries in tropical area (with high temperature at high relative humidity) such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand did not have nosocomial outbreaks of SARS (Tables 1 and 2(a)–2(c)). It may also explain why Singapore, which is also in tropical area (Table 2(d)), had most of its SARS outbreaks in hospitals (air-conditioned environment). Interestingly, during the outbreak of SARS in Guangzhou, clinicians kept the windows of patient rooms open and well ventilated and these may well have reduced virus survival and this reduced nosocomial transmission. - https://www.hindawi.com/journals/av/2011/734690/
I don't know how to say it any other way. Scientists call it a NOVEL OR NEW corona virus. It has never made the jump to man before. It is NOVEL or NEW to humanity. That's just a fact.
The rhinovirus is the virus most associated with the common cold.
