‘rapid approval of experimental therapeutics’ == throwing spaghetti at the wall.

Just listened to a podcast with Steve Hatfield. Remember him ? He says they have to put infected in special holding areas away from hospital. Otherwise the hospitals shutdown and normal services are not available. Unused schools, bases, malls, etc. should be used for infected.

I went back to look at it. It says they will share. It doesn’t say that they will censor or stop anything. No editor in the US would put up with that.

I think this just means they get the papers before they are published.

Hatfield said measles was a 6.0 RO.

Why in the hell are you using a dot product for a mathematical construct only one unit long?

I saw this earlier today.

He’s not fear mongering, but is clearly gravely concerned about the potential outcome of the outbreak.

Another doctor from Johns Hopkins is also worth following.

That recognized experts in this field are saying such things publicly is sobering, to say the least.

From a few days ago...

“President Xi Jinping said China was facing a “grave situation” as the death toll from the coronavirus outbreak jumped to 42, overshadowing Lunar New Year celebrations that began on Saturday“

Even at a constant R0 value of 1.5 you are 100% certain to be exposed eventually.

And by a simple reading of the news it’s easy to discern it is much higher. Not to mention the extent of China’s official reaction, which you have previously dismissed as an effort to soften the impact of poor economic performance.

Actions which significantly dull performance further.

I’m trying to discern whether you are rhetorically boxed in with previous, less than thoughtful statements, or if you have an agenda of some sort.

Or, if you know something nobody else does.

I’ll figure that out eventually.

Which is why the US, Russia, South Korea, and Russia are evacuating their citizens the hell out of Wuhan.

To help President Xi with a false flag on his economy?

I thought about spraying the mail with Lysol and letting it sit a couple of days.

Get some red biohazard tape and put on your front door ;-)

I’m not smug. Unlike the rest of the keyboard warriors here i will likely soon be caring for these patients so I actually have skin in the game. I just choose not to panic

No one deserves to die like that anywhere. We’re a human family.

What is the #coronarvirus’s “Case Fatality”? We don’t know but it could be 1-10% according to @MRC_Outbreak expert. Scientists say it CANNOT be reliably calculated yet. Notably do *NOT* merely divide reported deaths / cases. Numbers are still too uncertain to calculate yet!!! pic.twitter.com/azegnkHho7— Dr. Eric Feigl-Ding (@DrEricDing) January 26, 2020
