Rather ironic that the research took place in Wuhan where the outbreak occurred.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

I hope this doesn’t lead to the same sort of idiocy the Communist Chinese did in the past, such as making it a matter of national security to kill every sparrow on sight. Killing off bats rather than stop trafficking in them for food could lead to more insect born illnesses instead.

We have known since the beginning of the coronavirus crisis that there was a zoomorphic transfer of the virus to humans. And this post link above shows graphically how it happened.

Coronavirus also lives a long time in fecal material, as they have discovered over the last week.

The photo is from Wuhan. All it takes is for one person to eat an under-cooked dish of bat soup.

If Communists can make a situation worse, they will... it’s one of the ‘advantages’ of having thug committees making decisions.

Dogs and cats are cooked alive in boiling oil. The Chinese need to understand that the bile from a bear, taken from a living creature isn't a tonic, a rhino horn isn't an aphrodisiac, and bear's paw soup won't make a coward brave. They might have cell phones and money to travel, but in their heads they are still barbarians.

The link won't function for me, but I'm thinking there's no need for the Chinese to weaponize a virus, their hideous, disgusting culinary practices are enough. Obviously, after they slaughter a bat, a cat or a dog, they don't even think to wash their hands before they prepare the creature to be devoured. Leaving it hanging out in the open without refrigeration sure gives the germs/virus the poor animal carried while alive, a perfect opportunity to multiply in what is probably only partly-cooked meat.

It's enough to put me off Chinese food for life.
