As infectious disease specialists and epidemiologists race to contain the outbreak of the novel coronavirus centered on Wuhan, China, they’re getting back up that’s been possible only since the explosion in genetic technologies: a deep-dive into the DNA of the virus known as 2019-nCoV.
Analyses of the viral genome are already providing clues to the origins of the outbreak and even possible ways to treat the infection, a need that is becoming more urgent by the day: Early on Saturday in China, health officials reported 15 new fatalities in a single day, bringing the death toll to 41. There are now nearly 1,100 confirmed cases there.
More bad news came in as expert claimes that deadly coronavirus can be spread through the EYES after he contracted the disease, despite wearing a protective mask.

Schiff-4-brains needs to be concerned if this is true! Just sayin’.
“Doesn’t China make most of the eye protection ware”?
We can be sure they do.
"In April 2005, a virulent strain of influenza hit a maximum-security forensic psychiatric hospital for men that's midway between San Francisco and Los Angeles. John J. Cannell, a psychiatrist there, observed with increasing curiosity as one infected ward after another was quarantined to limit the outbreak. Although 10 percent of the facility's 1,200 patients ultimately developed the flu's fever and debilitating muscle aches, none did in the ward that he supervised."
I've taken 10k of vitamin D3 (and 100 mcg of vitiman K2) since posting this article 13 years ago. I'm 76 now.
Didn’t know about the ears. Will try HP. Thanks.
The US is bringing back US citizens from the stricken area ? I hope they are putting these people in quarantine for the necessary amount of time.
Ironically, they will probably be coming from China...
Blog pimping utter nonsense.
LOL !!!

Why do I get the suspicion that the Chinese government is responsible for this.
I put a few drops in a shot glass of orange juice, and drink it quickly through a straw. Otherwise it burns my mouth.
The OJ sort of cancels out the taste; tomato juice would work too, maybe even be more suitable to the taste of oregano.
The sky is falling. The sky is falling
Unnamed sources aren’t any better from conservatives than lefties
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.
The whole hysteria about coronavirus is nothing but that. Most infectious disease physicians say it is usually no worse than a cold with a slight fever. The people who are dying from it are usually very young, very old, or have compromised immunity system. In other words, the same people who are most affected by the flu.
