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.

If you have to wait until there is an actual pneumonitis (as characterized by the ground glass appearance on CT scan), it may be too late for remdesivir or other anti-viral medications to do much good. Need a quicker mass diagnostic test and a vaccine. Yet still doubt this virus will cause severe illness in the Caucasian and African populations. Suspect there will be an outbreak in Chinatown and other areas with a high concentration of Asians in the US.
