So you’re saying I should sell my house now rather than this summer?

Things I am seeing out of China indicates closer to 5% and possibly higher. Higher than 1918 flu levels of mortality, but hey... no big deal. What is 5% of 8 billion people?

Easily. That is something that happens every year. People are used to that.

14 day incubation period - often shows no symptoms until hospitalization needed.

With an R0 of 3.8, then the 8,000 could have infected 30,000 who will in turn infect still more. We still have a week or better to learn if that infection rate applies here.

When I looked it up, it says 3. And there are 63 possible cases in 22 states.

I know the Cure for the Common Cold
It is “The Symptoms of the Common Cold” Same with the Flu.
Best that modern Medicine can do is try to regulate the symptoms to a degree (don’t want to over-regulate) your own body’s defenses as it is our best Medicine
Vitamin C, D, K3 and the B Vitamins (Cod Liver Oil), fluids with electrolytes
(I am not a DR, this is just what I would do)
I am old enough to worry about this
PS Kimchee (any fermented food)is good to get your gut health back on track which is very important to the immune system (lymph system)and walking in-between Rest and Sleep cycles.
JMHO

Talked with my son about the quarantines in China earlier today. We both came to the conclusion that if it got bad in the US how in the heck to you quarantine a city the size of Houston?

NYC would be much easier to contain.

BECAUSE Zero Hedge posting story from Indian twitter source additional confirmation was neccessary. I located this article from July of 2019):

https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2019/07/mystery-surrounds-ouster-chinese-researchers-canadian-laboratory

On 5 July, officials at the National Microbiology Laboratory (NML) in Winnipeg, Canada, escorted Xiangguo Qiu, biologist Keding Cheng, and an unknown number of her students from the lab and revoked their access rights, according to Canadian media reports. The Public Health Agency of Canada, which operates the lab, confirmed it had referred an “administrative matter” matter to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, but said it would not provide additional details because of privacy concerns.

A number of observers have speculated that case involves concerns about the improper transfer of intellectual property to China. (All of the researchers involved are believed to be Asian.) But Frank Plummer, a former scientific director of NML who left in 2015, says the lab isn’t an obvious target for academic or industrial espionage. “There is nothing highly secret there, and all the work gets published in the open literature,” he says. “I don’t know what anyone would hope to gain by spying.”

This does NOT address all points of the ZH article, OR prove that this is an accidental release of a bio weapon, but DOES support the assertion that the Chinese stole biological material and research (along with any other intellectual property they can lay their hands on.) As far as the Former lab director stating that there was nothing secret or significant, well, people can make up their own minds.

We can only speculate if this is accidental, one of those “may the arrow they intended for others pierce their own liver!” sort of things. Perhap the Canadian lab could determine if this originated in their facuility based on samples from the U.S. or Canadian Coronavirus cases.

“The Renaissance. Apparently good times post-Black Death.”

The same was true after the 1918 flu epidemic.

Rich old died leaving $ to survivors who partied the $ away in the roaring 20’s.

Yeah, that was considered but this article says a virus not this virus, lots of distortion out there.

Any how, 2% is still pretty bad possibility than goodness it is usually a fraction of the worst case.
