It’s possible they’re testing important people whether they’re showing signs or not.

Trump furious Americans infected with coronavirus flew back to US without his permission: report

President Trump was furious that 14 Americans infected with the coronavirus returned to the United States without his permission rather than remain in quarantine overseas, according to a new report.

Trump had been briefed that the healthy U.S. passengers who spent weeks quarantined aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship in Japan would be allowed to fly home on two chartered planes — while those who were sick or infected would stay in Japan to prevent the spread of the deadly virus.

The president became “furious” with senior advisers after learning the 14 Americans who tested positive had been put on a plane with healthy passengers, according to The Washington Post. One official told the paper that the failure to inform Trump of the decision in advance of the plane’s departure was a “big operational mistake

If there are 70 confirmed cases in this area alone, then why are we being told there are only 16 or 36 cases total nationally?

Something smells rotten.

What are the real, factual, actual total number of cases in the US? Because if one skips from article to article adding up from each story, the total numbers are way off from what were being told.

China Exploits Coronavirus to Promote Dubious Traditional Remedies
The Chinese authorities may be taking advantage of the coronavirus outbreak to promote dubious - and potentially harmful - traditional remedies.
Beijing may be exploiting the coronavirus crisis as an opportunity to bolster the multi-billion dollar market for traditional Chinese remedies.
Over 50% of the coronavirus patients in Hubei are being treated with traditional remedies.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has dubious efficacy and could have caused the coronavirus outbreak through the trade of pangolins.
Bejing is exploiting the crisis to promote nationalist Communist Party goals. They want to boost the market for TCM and fulfill Chairman Mao’s vision.
Is China getting desperate? As the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak rages on, Chinese authorities are turning to questionable methods to stop the deadly disease.

(this opinion piece says 50% of patients were being treated with TCM but I put a video up yesterday of a Chinese mucketymuck somebody bragging that 85% were receiving TCM?

The funny part of TCM is, Mao burned all that knowledge. As part of The Great Leap Backward, all cultural practices were destroyed with vigor. The Chinese had to go to the London Museum and universities to rediscover what little TCM knowledge remained.

They will wait for some other shoe to drop before they do that.

I sure as hell wouldn’t want to be the insurance company on the hook for that.
