Are they even including Wuhan any more in their dailies?

Yes, they are reporting hundreds of new Wuhan cases daily (401 today), and 11 in the whole rest of China including Taiwan, HK, and Macau.

Now, you can believe it or not. But if it's true, it is critically important information, especially for Europe.

well, if you ask me (and nobody has lol), it seems we’re in a steady-state war with China already. A lion’s share of propaganda videos are about China’s ‘war-time footing’ and military power. Soldiers are shown prominently in hospitals and ‘rest’ centers while the civilians are somewhere in the background. What other reason do they have for withholding epidemic information? Such as data related to the medical providers that were infected? Or what looks like an attempt to prevent the US from obtaining Gilead’s compound, by filing a world-wide patent? And trying to strong-arm India into selling all their medical-related production for 2020 to only China? Not to mention the cutsy ‘unity’ photo-op meeting called last week of the Asian nations in support of China?

SWITZERLAND

New coronavirus Covid-19: three new confirmed cases in Switzerland

Bern, 27.02.2020 - A person from the canton of Geneva and two people in the canton of Graubünden have tested positive for the new coronavirus. The person in the canton of Geneva returned to Switzerland from the region of Milan a few days ago. All three are being treated in hospital in an isolation unit. Their health condition is good. The number of cases in Switzerland that have tested positive has therefore risen to four

re: Remdesivir trials:

https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/26/us/coronavirus-us-american-treatment-trial/index.html

Participants in the US treatment group will receive 200 milligrams of remdesivir intravenously when they’re enrolled in the study. They will receive another 100 milligrams while they are hospitalized for up to 10 days total. A placebo group will receive a solution that resembles remdesivir but contains only inactive ingredients, the NIH said.

In Japan, do you think if the Prime Minister ‘asks’, that they will refuse? This is Japan.

Not sure what that means. If you mean that people will do what the Prime Minister asks, I believe you are incorrect - people who will what is in their best self-interests, while still maintaining a strong sense of conformity.

It's more appropriate that Japanese will pay heed to the government closest to their daily lives. In talking with several Japanese last week (including several in US), almost all seemed skeptical of the federal government in addressing COVID-19. A couple of people mentioned their (and TEPCO's) incompetence related to the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2011. They seemed to believe prefectural government as more competent.

LOL
China’s leading #COVID19 expert: Virus could have originated abroad
https://twitter.com/CGTNOfficial/status/1233029016241618946
***********************************************************************************
Well Dr. Francis Boyle who wrote the bioWeapons Act, has stated in an interview that it likely came from University of N. Carolina. Seems the Chinese and NIH had given awards/grants to the University to explore Corona Virus and were inserting various stuff into the genes.

So they actually taught this Chinese guy the technology. One of the papers stated that no vaccine had been successful and noted that further studies should be weighed against the risk.

So China probably worked on it in their lab, but the original sample came from N. Carolina, who likely got their sample from Fort Dietrich. It’s not USA’s fault if they failed to contain it. But it is technically where it came from, if he is correct.

And then there’s also some indication that the muslim terrorist bands that Paul Haney was writing about before he was shot might have let it loose in China.

Lots of speculation and opinions on the matter.

How very interesting.

Note he sold a wholebuncha amazon stock around the time wuhan was put under military quarantine.

If you can find that article, ‘we’ would appreciate it :)

My tinfoil tells me this was meant for ‘us’ somehow and got released early by accident. Possibly originally meant as a first strike against taiwan and japan and the other small tigers. It would have been difficult for us to argue against ‘humanitarian aid’ if the countries themselves ‘requested’ it from the chicoms.

The exact reason.

Eunice said, as nicely as she could, that people are ‘missing paychecks’.

Not to mention likely punishment if one fails to show up for work, comrade!

The muslim revenge for the Uighur’s theory is my other tinfoil idea.

This tech really isn’t that farfetched. Grad students with a lab setup could probably do this if they weren’t concerned with their own personal safety. Ie, martyrs.

Not showing up for work there sounds like an invitation to thugs in bunnysuits to pay you a visit to ‘check on you’ too.

behind a paywall, but the gist of it is, the stocks doing well are those associated with things people can do during a ‘long stay’ home:

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/27/the-short-travel-long-stay-at-home-trade-is-working-amid-the-coronavirus-sell-off.html

The coronavirus-driven narrative that people are less willing to leave their homes is playing out nicely in the stock market this week.
Stay-at-home stocks are outperforming the broader market and companies that promote travel due to the threat of the spreading deadly virus.

Yeah, those one-day quarantines are sure to do the trick!

Go watch the ‘baltic dry index’.

Once upside out of this sad situation is that the US is learning the hard way that they need to bring back key (for a start) manufacturing and production of items from China. Hopefully they act on what they learn.

If not, then the effects from these sorts of events will occur.

Not so toasty this winter in the middle eastern part of the world, as of mid February. Setting record cold temps.
