updates coming in fast

Why would the Chinese want to kill all their customers?

On Agenda Free TV it's being reported the "official" numbers are 1,307 cases and 41 dead.

He has many updates from several sources and this live stream has been going for almost an hour. If he does like last night, he'll be streaming for several more hours.
He's had the best overall coverage I've found on this issue so far.

FOrt Detrick got shut down indefinitely by the CDC because of biosafety issues in August. (dont know if they are reopened)

You think safety is better and more controlled in Commie China???

From your link...

If 250k infected by Feb 4th (likely higher), with a 3% mortality that’s 7,500 dead in two weeks and no end in sight.

Yep, Still haven’t quite made heads-or-tails out of this, but things seem to be moving quickly enough to get my attention.

The next few days will be telling.

I don’t think anyone’s been able to make heads-or-tails of it yet. The bad thing is it started in Dec. and we didn’t even hear about it until about a week ago.

I haven’t heard or seen that. I will try and locate the information.

Hand sanitizers are for BACTERIA, not VIRUSes.

They are pointless for virus.

Makes me laugh thinking about the Ebola stuff for which our private school implored kids to keep using sanitizer at school and forced them to use it in and out of classes,etc.

Makes them feel good, but worthless for the real threat.

I stand corrected. I understand your point.

I am not of the mind to say this is a bio weapon. I would imagine if they were going for terror, you’d do something messy like small pox.

If you were going for volume, I guess anything to overwhelm the system would work.

I think this is some virus that just jumped. Between Africa and China the conditions are so bad, this stuff is bound to happen.

Their response is frightening to me.

This is secretive Commie China we are talking about..and they are in full blown panic.

Since when does Commie China order a hospital built in 7 days to combat bat soup.

Something is off about this whole thing.

Let’s assume it is not something that escaped their bioweapons lab.

Maybe it came from bat soup.

They are responding like it is a bioweapon. After only 41 official deaths. Actually, even before those official death numbers

ROFLMAO. I am going to the casino this weekend one last time. Damn it. I always feel better using my hand sanitizer. Now I will have to move if a Asian person sits down ;-)

It probably has to do with location on the outbreak and the professions of those infected.

Your assuming intentional release.

There could be all kinds of things they are working on ..as you said...the story about the membrane on the virus.

And safety protocol was breached.

It is not that far fetched to even think X bioweapons researcher guy accidentally spread it in the market.

Whatever happened, China is acting like it is a bioweapon. Maybe they think someone released it on them. Like North Korea, US, etc.

When I worked at the hospital the CDC annual training reinforced that the best way to prevent flu transmission was washing your hands. The infection control folks were nuts about it. I am pretty sure antiviral handwash in hospitals kill viruses.

DrDenaGrayson is a political hack. Yes, she has a PhD and MD. But she's a rabid leftist. I would ignore anything she says. https://denagrayson.com/about/

dr dena grayson is a hack. See my previous link. Yes, it's possible she has accurate comments. But more likely she does not.

IF it’s an accidental release I’m sticking to my original hypothesis:

Improper building codes for the bioweapons lab. Corruption is rampant. Someone didn’t follow the building diagram to hook this to that (example, waste water was dumped directly into the river/lake/sewer instead of the biohazard handling facility).

Lab subsequently infested with mice/rats/etc. Creatures in the sewer exposed, etc.

Improperly handled research samples thus transferred to the outside animal population.

One of which was killed and butchered ‘messily’ and there we go...
