TODAY'S GODZILLA UPDATE:

SARS -

Overnight the reported number of infections in China increased by about 40%. From about 12 hours ago China reported 4515 confirmed cases and 106 deaths (2.3% mortality rate) .

Observers are concerned this is just the tip of the iceberg. Reuters is reporting that “Researchers at Lancaster University estimate that only 5.1% of infections in Wuhan have been identified.

By Jan. 21, they estimated a total of 11,341 people had been infected in Wuhan since the start of the year. More than 30,000 people in Wuhan are under observation, according to the city’s health authorities.”

More countries around the world reporting infections and more are issuing travel restrictions to china. Getting accurate reports and numbers still a challenge.

On an economic scale, the quarantine in China combined with the associated panic of surrounding nations has really slammed things. Besides medical supplies like protective N95 masks, food and other medicines are becoming scarce and / or expensive.

Watching - medical warnings that china reported infections will reach 250,000 by next week. If this happens, then a lot of concerns about its spread may be justified.

SARS - UPDATE:

The British paper The Independent is reporting that patients in Germany and Japan who caught the coronavirus did not visit China. Interesting development.

That's my round up of the status today. If I run across more data, I will post it as a reply to this post so that it will all be available at once.

If anyone has additional info, would you please reply to this post? Thanks.

Bottomline-We should take the usual FLU precautions. Sanitation appears to be key to me. China is deficient in that--part of the reason for their problem.

GOOD NEWS— Sample taken from infected person used to re-create—allowing development of test

Australia scientists claim first re-creation of coronavirus outside China

The Australia-grown virus sample would be used to generate an antibody test, which would allow detection of the virus in patients who had not shown symptoms, as well as contributing to the creation of a vaccine, the institute said.

1/29/2020 C.VIRUS UPDATE:

From Godzilla:

Wuhan Coronovirus -
Numbers infected and killed keep increasing. Various outlets say China is reporting 9239 cases with 132 deaths. Continued concerns about the accuracy of these numbers both for potential propaganda, length of incubation time and China running out of test kits.

Keep these factors in mind when reading/hearing numbers. It has reportedly surpassed the SARS epidemic of a few years ago. Australian scientists have successfully grown copies of the virus in a lab, enabling more detailed testing and evaluation.

First batch of US citizens evacuated from the Wuhan region were flown into March AFB in California where they will be kept under observation (and probably tested) for the virus before being released. Germany, Japan, Britain, Australia and India are also evacuating citizens from Wuhan.
