Great to chat with you again SE MOM!
I agree. If what I read earlier in the other thread on post 54 is real than this is a really sophisticated threat initially mimicking the flu but in reality far worse.

Who knows too early for any of that speculation.....

What we need to do now is pin down where it all originated from.Was it at a market selling bats,rats and snakes or from a lab in Wuhan that has level 4 toxic chem weapons? We really don't know yet but this is how we look into it.Everything starts here.

Do we trust the drivebys on something like this? Hell no.!

See my #864. God knows how far the ChiComms would go to quell civil unrest in millions of quarantined people. Could just see it as an opportunity to check on the efficacy of this virus as a biological agent.

Individuals can have symptoms for up to 10 days (this is following the incubation period), IIRC from the Lancet article.

Thank you.

"Up to 10 days". Would the average probably be around 5 days? Or more like 7?

And am I correct in thinking that taking the average duration, looking at the number of people who were infected that many days ago, and comparing it to the current death toll, would give a more accurate idea of the mortality rate than using the most recent number of people infected? The total number infected includes people who are going to die from it but haven't gotten there yet. It seems like it would be more accurate to look at the number of cases that have run their course. Maybe I'm wrong, in which case I hope there's someone here with more experience in epidemiology who can correct my method.

I tried finding the number of confirmed recoveries, but A: I was told that the number was misleading, and B: the number was too terrifying. I'm hoping it was wrong.

We have been told that it did not originate in Wuhan. And we now know it was not from the market due to DNA analysis.

RELATED STORIES

In this photo(previously posted) released by China's Xinhua News Agency, a medical worker writes their colleague's name on a protective suit to aid in identification as they work at Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University in Wuhan in central China's Hubei Province, Firday, Jan. 24, 2020. China announced Friday that it is swiftly building a 1,000-bed hospital dedicated to patients infected with a new virus that has killed 26 people, sickened hundreds and prompted unprecedented lockdowns of cities during the country's most important holiday.

The story I think was that a Chinese employee at a Canadian bioweapons unit, was escorted out of the building and put on a slow boat to China. His name was Rack Bawa. The Chinese Jack Bauer. Just kidding about the name.

Again, who knows the what or where of the photo. Reminds me of the DDT foggers when I was a kid. I don’t see any people. Millions in quarantine could get out of hand if they feel that they’re penned in to die.

10 new cases of novel coronavirus confirmed in Beijing

Ten new cases of novel coronavirus were confirmed in Beijing on Saturday, according to local health authorities. This brings the number of confirmed cases to 51 in the Chinese capital.

Beijing's Municipal Health Commission said in a statement on Sunday that three of the patients are medical staff, two of which had a travel history to Wuhan. The third contracted the disease after sitting with one of the infected doctors during a meeting. (Cover: AP Photo)

From that same source,

Tianjin has announced that it will suspend all inter-provincial shuttle buses starting January 27 amid the novel coronavirus outbreak, local authorities said.

40 cases of novel coronavirus confirmed in Shanghai

As of Saturday midnight, seven new cases of novel coronavirus were confirmed in Shanghai, which brings the number of confirmed cases to 40, according to local health commission.

The commission said in a statement that one male patient aged 88 died, and the other one is in critical condition.

One person discharged from the hospital, the statement added.

Beijing announces 20 designated hospitals to treat coronavirus patients

Beijing Municipal Health Commission on Sunday announced 20 designated hospitals to treat coronavirus patients

These 20 hospitals are in charge of the medical treatment for patients infected in the outbreak of pneumonia caused by the novel coronavirus.

Beijing Ditan Hospital and Beijing Youan Hospital, which were the major hospitals treating SARS patients in 2003, are among the 20 hospitals.

.= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

if this is so trivial, why is Beijing designating 20 hospitals to deal with this?

How far are they from Wuhan?

Also, according to this heat map from Johns Hopkins University:

https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6

Now 2000 cases confirmed, 56 fatalities (~2.5% fatality rate)

Beijing now has *50* cases...

Horse is out of the barn.

Get ready to (literally) shelter in place.

Last July, the RCMP kicked out two Chinese researchers.

https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3761093 says it was for sending Level-4 viruses to the Wuhan facility in China.

...oh btw. The husband worked with coronavirus.

Looks like Patient 0 had no tie to the animal market.

The 1 in a thousand are the first infected. After that happens apparently they put your city on lock down. Gas the streets. And force you to die alone and quietly in your own home. Thus, you are not counted.
