“The use of the PLA cannot be emphasized enough how serious they are taking this “
1. 40 million quarantined
2. Running 3-4% fatality rate
3. 14 day incubation, 5 days on surfaces
4. People contagious up to 5 days before showing any symptoms
5. Still accelerating infection rate
6. Key med and security personnel in hazmat suits
Yeah, somebody, somewhere, thinks it’s very serious indeed.
They have upped the quarantine to 16 cities with a population of 46 million or over an 8th of the US population. Every few hours they add more cities. Let that sink in:
Wuhan: 11mln
Huanggang: 7.5mln
Xiangyang: 6.1mln
Yichang: 4.2mln
Jingmen: 3mln
Xianning: 2.8mln
Huangshi: 2.5mln
Suizhou: 2.2mln
Xiantao: 1.6mln
Ezhou: 1mln
Qianjiang: 962k
Enshi: 780k
Xiaogan: 780k
Zhijiang: 550k
Dangyang: 560k
Chibi: 530k
Contagious 5 days before symptoms?
Do you have a source for that?
Flu is 1 day before symptoms.
Although the transmission dynamics have yet to be determined, CDC currently recommends a cautious approach to patients under investigation for 2019 Novel Coronavirus Such patients should be asked to wear a surgical mask as soon as they are identified and be evaluated in a private room with the door closed, ideally an airborne infection isolation room if available. Healthcare personnel entering the room should use standard precautions, contact precautions, airborne precautions, and use eye protection (e.g., goggles or a face shield). Immediately notify your healthcare facility’s infection control personnel and local health department.
Probably those clowns at the pl-4 virus lab in Wuhan.
