Corona Virus Pandemic
↑ Click Above To View The Video On YouTube ↑

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is now a pandemic. I explain why in this video.

COVID-19, which is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, is a PANDEMIC. It might not be an official declaration by the WHO, but, there is no question, that this is a pandemic.

The WHO already has a credibility problem with a lot of people, and that’s only going to get worse the longer they delay calling COVID-19 a pandemic.

This reason this is a pandemic is that the endemic is now spreading in different continents.

Specifically, there is sustained transmission from person to person in people who have not recently been to China or have not been exposed to someone who was recently in China. Of course, we know about the 80,000 or so cases in Asia, with China, South Korea, and even Iran still being part of Asia, but the big news is the number of cases in Italy, and in the US as well....

Two of your three links go to "Joe Biden Funniest Moment Supercut | Morning Joe | MSNBC": Minus two points for that. :(

Only one goes to the video listed, which is informative: Plus three points for posting this. :)

>>That’s why China is building emergency hospitals at such a clip. It’s why >> EVERYONE is trying to stop it. Countries will go broke on health

Hospitals? Or internment facilities to hold them until ovens are available? More like military prisons from what I’ve seen them build.

“More like military prisons from what I’ve seen them build.”

Correct. They were prefab prisons meant to hold their muzzies. Hence the bars on the windows.

Their healthcare system was overwhelmed. I think they probably warehouse them and basically waited to see if they lived and died so that they could use the hospitals for other patients....just an opinion.

...there is no question, that this is a pandemic.

My understanding is that, worldwide, this year's flu has killed more people than the virus.

Typically, to be a “pandemic”, it has to at least reach epidemic levels on two or more continents. Right now, it has really only reached epidemic levels in a single province in a single country, in Hubei, China. While I understand everyone is desperate to hype it beyond what it CURRENTLY is, we are redefining “pandemic” down to a level to meet our hype. It might become a pandemic over the course of a couple months, but right now, it is an “outbreak” everywhere except Hubei Province, China.

“Legit Doctor offers his insights.”

so, what’s the difference between a “legit” doctor and a non-legit doctor?

“Legit” doctors promote hysterical anti-American propaganda.

Otherwise, why would we need “legit” to preface “doctor”?

I think it is. It's like the 6th or 7th leading cause of death worldwide.

Q: If WHO calls a pandemic a picnic, how many picnics does WHO have?

A: Zero. Calling a pandemic a picnic doesn't make it a picknic!

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.
