Scientist and scholar Eric Toner, quoted above in an excerpt from a Friday interview with the business-news channel CNBC, explained that China’s efforts to contain the current outbreak of a fast-moving upper-respiratory illness are “unlikely to be effective.”

Toner said the WHO may have made a mistake by not declaring 2019-nCoV an international emergency.

Cbs Market watch is a far far left wing source.
These people want the Wall Street to crash to kill off Trump election chances . But we need to stop all Chinese flights now . The wealthy Chinese will flood our US ERs and hospitals.

Don't drink a Corona if you are scared of the Coronavirus. You should be safe.

Even if it is an escaped bio-weapon, everything in my post holds true.

The one upside is that if it’s an escaped bio-weapon, then let us hope that they built into the virus an auto self-destruct.

The SARS virus weakened after 4 or 5 transmissions. And this was one of the attributes that led people to think SARS was an escaped bio-weapon.

note the simulation assumed no effective vaccine, while it’s already been reported that a vaccine for coronavirus is about three months away ... and new production techniques using recombinant DNA methods can produce massive amounts of vaccine in short order because those techniques don’t require growing the vaccine in eggs ... that’s how the flublok influenza vaccine is produced, for example ...

There seems to be a fear about this virus....more than usual.

What is different about it? What are the symptoms? How quickly are people dying from it?

And I can’t remember back 35 years on how it tasted the last time!

It taste just as good as it did 35 years ago.

Mandatory, no doubt.

I wonder...if we take high doses of vitamin C will that prevent us from getting this bug?

I’m surprised we have not stopped all incoming and outgoing flights!!

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Not if it costs one or more lives, which it could easily do.

SARS and Ebola/HIDs comes to mind....nary a concern about them these days. Quite possibly a newsworthy event queued up just in time as the President’s legal team rips to shreds the Schiff/Nadler show...they wouldn’t want us to see that on TV, now, would they?

I’m hijacking a phase the left used to get their way, nothing peeves them off like stealing their verbal clubs and beating them about the head and shoulders with them...

Viruses aren’t alive and therefore can’t be “killed”.

“Colloidal Silver is for Burn treatment. Its TOPICAL.”

Totally agree - the anecdote I related was about taking it internally for a preventative/supplement. That was the way I understood the first poster to propose since that poster mentioned shots.
