1) ALL CAPS.
2) Isn’t this an RNA virus?
3) The dangerous part of this virus is the outer protein coat having elements which allow it to bind to epithelial cells deep in the lungs like SARS did. It creates a cytokine storm.
4) But only *after* being transmissible _without sympoms_ for up to 10-14 days. Not panic mongering, there are articles published BY CHINA, in both the press, and in august publications like the Lancet, which back this up.

1. I did not type the ALL CAPS-that was the article. The author always types in ALL CAPS-it’s an eyesight thing I think.
2. Yes, My understanding is that it is an RNA virus.
3. Yes, my understanding is that it is similar to SARS and cytokine storm is an issue.
4. Yes, I have read several articles that 10-14 days transmission without symptoms.(This is going to make containment hard-slim to none-and many people think this is very unusual).
I mainly posted that article due to the debunking of Canada being the source. Unfortunately, the person writing the article still believes it is a bioweapon.
Today on Forum thread: “The RNA sequences of the #coronavirus isolated from 6 patients from the same household are different from each other (Lancet), sign of the virus evolving.”
At this point, it matters not whether it was a bio-engineered or not—it is here and mutating quickly. Normal flu precautions plus goggles and self -quarantine(don’t go out if you don’t have to) if/when it gets to your city —if you want to avoid being sick. JMHO
Hint: *cough* act of war *cough* hint: standing US policy response to bioweapons is *nukes* *cough* *cough*
