#China says the #coronavirus #epidemic is calming down, but is it really so? Stephen K Bannon, host of #WarRoomPandemic sat down with me to discuss the most critical aspects of this pandemic: What’s the truth in China? Why did the Chinese government still refuse to let the American experts in? Could the virus be made in a lab? Why does the Chinese Communist Leadership rush #biosafety legislation? Could America see generic drug shortages if the epidemic prolongs? - Subscribe for updates: http://bit.ly/SimoneGao

Zatso? China says it's under control. Who to believe?Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

I agree with Bannon. China is lying. It’s a pandemic there and can collapse their economy and possibly their entire power structure.
I don’t know if he’s right or not, but good for him for not putting a question mark at the end of the headline. I hate headlines that do that.
Not with a less than 5% mortality rate and mostly older seniors at that.
You mean this can destroy China? So what’s the problem?
So you’re believing the numbers from the Chinese government?
If it’s a 2% kill rate and hits the U.S., that’s 4-5 million dead? Don’t think that’d collapse the system? Even if it’s more like the Spanish Flu that was still 675,000 people.
.
that would be a human tragedy and tank the economy and probably ensure Trump would lose reelection as the media would spin it as his fault
“China says it’s under control. Who to believe?”
That’s badthink, citizen. Report to the nearest re-education center.
Exactly. It’s been said that the virus could take 245 million Chinese lives. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.
While the kill rate is significant, the larger story is that ten times the kill rate is the seriously sick (requiring hospitalization) rate which would totally overwhelm hospitals—as well as keeping people unable to work for a long period of time.
That would include health care workers, which would just add to the problem.
If the trends continue this would be very disruptive to the world economy until the pandemic ran its course.
I doubt it would be that high here or anything close. At least I hope not, because you are right even a 2% kill rate would be catastrophic.
Tell me about it, I cannot stand the Chinese. Besides ripping us off, this thing they have with torturing animals drives me up the wall. They don’t kill cats and dogs just for food, they get off on torturing them as well. The stuff I’ve seen them do I can’t even describe here, the moderators would delete it. It’s like some kind of sick machismo thing over there, the more cruel the more they get off on it. There is something really wrong with those mofos and I wouldn’t doubt communism is to blame. It’s driven them nuts and I’m not surprised at all they got a pandemic
“...If it’s a 2% kill rate and hits the U.S., that’s 4-5 million dead?...”
Wouldn’t that mean everyone in the U.S. caught the virus????
Nope. It's a 4.8% mortality rate. This is a bad one.
The infection rate is also very high... 40-70%. SOURCE
“According to Meta-analysis, among the clinical characteristics of patients with 2019-nCoV infection, the incidence of fever is 90.9% , the incidence of cough is 70.8%, and the incidence of muscle soreness or fatigue is 41%.SOURCEThe incidence of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was 14.8%, the incidence of abnormal chest CT was 95.6%, the proportion of severe cases in all infected cases was 21.3%, and the mortality rate of patients with 2019-nCoV infection was 4.8%.”
So in the USA:
| Total US Population: | 327,000,000 |
| Infected: | 130million-229million |
| Dead (4.8%): | 6.25million - 11 million |
I've linked my sources.
Let's hope this is all just a terrible mistake.
