I too prefer to watch paint peel (the impeachment) while Rome burns.

...Don’t confuse people with rational thought and information.

I’ve known a few people who worked at the CDC in Atlanta
They were very serious minded folk

Fear is a waste of time
Vigilance however... Is why we are all on this thread, and others

I’m unaware of anti-virals in general merchandise off the shelf. Probably are some, but the labels will tell you.

Some of the videos on this channel are pretty funny.

“Do you think the Chicoms would ‘rashly’ destroy their economy over the flu or a sniffle or two?”

Over anything they would. In fact their job is to hold back the Chinese economy and they’ve been doing it for 70 years, sometimes to horrific result.

It’s a serious issue. New viruses like this come up and there is now the technology to know if a virus is a new strain. The type of DNA sequencing and viral genomic databases haven’t been around that long. Now it’s easy to identify new strains. In the last this would be marked up to a few pneumonias where the infectious agent was not identified.

It’s good to monitor potential epidemics as is being done.

Keep in mind the flu in a mid level county like San Diego here killed more than this new virus over the same time. Elderly and sick are the victims in both cases of flue and this Wuhan virus, WARS as its being called.

China has a closed society, very controlled at near Orwellian levels. Info from there is subject to rumor and exaggeration. There is no free press and no freedom of movement.

The government are not honest and are very Machiavellian. Corruption runs rampant.

I personally think they are using this new virus as an excuse to put their contingency plans in to a dry run exercise to see how well they can work. If there is ever widespread discontent and protests of the 1989 type, they would want to shut down travel. This is a dry run using the new virus as an opportunity to see how well they can inhibit travel and movement.

It’s done exactly at the time of the biggest travel time of the year. It is a great test.

Really, nothing the ChiCom government says can be trusted or taken at face value (although it could be honest but one can’t know).

So you think the ChiComs are crashing their economy deliberately then?

To ‘test’ some sort of public policy maneuver?

?

And our State Department is playing along with this by evac’ing all our peeps there?

I have not read every post (it is being updated too fast to keep up) but I have notice there are some claiming this is all hype.

Maybe they are correct, maybe it is much ado about nothing.

But if it is, please explain to me why China would do it in such a way to harm their economy the most?

Most governments try to downplay things like this rather than take a major economic hit. Why would North Korea close it’s borders with China?

I think the next clue will be if other nations begin to stop incoming flights from China.

I don’t believe their (China) word but I do believe the the actions they are taking to control the spread of this virus.

Yeah, I was surprised how much the ones available on Amazon were. I had ordered 3m disposables that were scheduled to ship 2/3. Found plenty of the same at Home Depot for 30% less. Cancelled the amazon order.

What is scary they are only showing 39 people fully recover, and 42 death. So the 1357 still sick people with Coronavirus have a 50/50 recover/death.

I guess it takes a while to recover from the illness.

You would think since they first started tracking some of those still sick would have move to the fully recover list but have not. outbreak map

All numbers are suspect at this point.

Wuhan is supposedly out of the testing kits. As are most other provinces.

So confirmed cases won’t move until they begin testing again.

Also heard rumors of hospitals falsifying death certificates for patients diagnosed already. ‘heart attack, smoking, kidney failure, etc’ to keep the numbers down.

“Right now, there are no disinfectant products registered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for use on environmental surfaces that are specifically listed as having the ability to kill the SARS virus. However, similar viruses can be killed with bleach, ammonia or alcohol, or cleaning agents containing any of these disinfectants. Cleaning agents should be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions.”

Can these masks be reused day after day? Just wondering how many to order? One for each person in family, or multiples? Not wanting to panic but also just do some reasonable preparedness.

It’s not the deaths, per se. it would completely overwhelm the system. At our hospital the “normal” flu will overwhelm the place for days at a time.

That means many of these patents are not going to be treated, and people will not get any help. That will kill more people.

It would turn normal city hospitals into something out of Somalia.
