I’m more worried about the panic than the disease.

As I understand it, it’s more closely related to the cold virus(es). It’s just a new, additional, very, very, very bad cold.

It seems that China, Iran and Italy are bad, but everywhere else is doing pretty well all things considered.


Italy isn’t even that bad. Another day where you can count on one hand how many have died in Italy from Coronavirus. I wonder how many died from the flu today in Italy? My bet it is more than 5.

Worth noting

“ Elderly people with basic diseases, as long as they have pneumonia, were clinically a high-risk factor regardless of whether it is a coronavirus or not, and the case fatality rate was also very high, so it is not that the case fatality rate of pneumonia is high because of the infection with the new coronavirus. “This point must be explained to everyone,” concluded the NHC official.[7]”

“Then again, is that a possible indication that there was an actually inoculative strain created and released?”

Do you have any evidence to support your hypothesis? Is there some secret lab somewhere that created this “inoculative strain” that you know about? That then released it because they somehow knew all about the Wuhan CV and wanted to save America? Or were they just randomly releasing “inoculative strains” into the wild for giggles?

Substantiate your hypothesis if it is not a conspiracy theory.

My family in SF bay area say its the Asia population started this mess again /> They talk to the family back home in Hong Kong or Seoul and
then they raced to the store and cause these panic buys.
Hong Kong had these panic sprees weeks ago.

I think he means it might have been a ‘test’ vaccine strain that went rabid.

Ie, they were testing a SARS type vaccine. There’s always a chance that attenuated viruses ‘wake up’ and go rabid.

The CDC publication on interim pre-pandemic planning guidance has a lot of useful information about what community based tactics are recommended for different levels of mortality associated with an epidemic.

It looks like the Chinese used a similar approach to the CDC recommendations with their typical authoritarianism mixed in. The CDC recommendations also provide insight into mortality rates based on comparing the responses of various countries to what the CDC recommends for various levels of severity of the infectious agent.

The CDC recommendations also provide a preview of what approaches state and local health authorities might adopt, which can help with personal planning.

You can read it here.

“Gee maybe you’re right and this thing is gonna be a beast here in the US.”

Very bad news.

If the virus takes hold in Mexico and Central America, the number of people marching for the US border will increase exponentially.

the best health care in the world, and it’s FREE!

“You will not died from this”

Huh? Perhaps you mean the risk is low that you will die from the virus.

Obviously people have died from this virus.

I would add the hysteria in the media over the Coronavirus is designed to wreck the economy and blame President Trump.

We must pray for President Trump to pull us through this.

More people have died from the Flu this year. Yet the media is quiet about it.

Yes it is contagious, but less than 2% actually die. Only the very old and very young die.

Nevertheless, the coronavirus can be blamed on China and this event is the proof President Trump needs to build the wall and secure our borders.

The fear feels synthetic and my Spiderman senses are NOT going off at all. This is fake and engineered by Leftist to crash our economy and blame President Trump.

This is a Black Swan event.

“Our best current expectation is a few hundred current infections.”

All of those in the wild, and circulating. Except for 9.

That isn’t clear to me.
Read it a few times trying to get the point and never succeeded.

I wonder if US healthcare with such things as the current pneumonia vaccine (and others) will moderate the effects of the covid.
