Only idiots buy the dried food.

Prudent people could always have 6w supply of whatever they NORMALLY eat on hand. Always. Just in case.

Prudent prepping prevents panic.

Guessing cargo planes fly themselves so there is no worries there are any sick crew on board. Guess all the crates and contents of the crates were never touched by sick human hands. What the heck was the point of only stopping passenger planes?

Psych 101A -“Deductive reasoning is defined as ‘an argument where the conclusion is a logical consequence of its premise’. Many believe that if THEIR conclusions follow logically from THEIR premises, then THEIR conclusions must be true. But those very conclusions, when made in a vacuum, may be true or they may be invalid. That is, that ‘deductive’ reasoning may in fact be biased reasoning. False reasoning that leads to some pretty stupid behavior. Example - one truth: Johnny jumped off the cliff into the water and didn't break his leg on the rocks beneath the surface. False conclusion: Jumping off the cliff is safe. Alternate truth: 100 others jumped and have broken legs. Accurate deduction: Jumping off the cliff will almost always result in broken legs and Johnny is likely a statistical anomaly. Another example - the blind men and the elephant. An essential element of accurate deductions is peer review, such as is happening on these threads.

Yeah, no duh.

That’s been cited so much over the years on this website it’s become a cliche.

My advice to you is this: put a lot more effort into understanding how to apply Scripture.

Yes, though IF the report that the virus cannot survive more than a few minutes with temps lower than 65F or humidity below 40% is correct, that would severely beat down any virus surviving on surfaces.

Don’t forget to add water to the chicken/turkey/fowl carcass and boil. Free soup broth. Ok, not free as you already paid for the bones so use them.

Of course, you know this but others may not.

re: gilead compound. Nobody will get it if Gilead signs a monopoly production agreement with the Chi-coms, who are demanding world-wide rights. I sure hope that’s been nipped in the bud

Wow, I speak against the deep state and suddenly I get all these replies.

Deep state defenders coming out of the woodwork?

Just because I blew the cover on the low IQ deep state narrative?

Ya.

I add water to the instant pot when I cook a whole chicken. Strain the ‘broth’ and freeze it.

Use that with added back chicken shreds and veggies + rice or pasta to make soup.

I’m not a carb eater but family is so the soup is a ‘their’ thing.

After a man in Göppingen, two other corona cases have been confirmed in Baden-Württemberg. The federal government is now speaking of a “new challenging situation”.

If China does that so can we.

At that point Gilead would be SOL for patent monies.

No! You didn’t!

Why did you let me draw you out from your cover so easily?

The only ones who deny the e is ten weeks of the deep state are far left radicals and members of the deep state themselves!

Actually it’s temps over 35C or so that coronaviruses don’t like.

The lower the temp, the longer the virus remains alive.

Lots of scientific publications regarding coronaviruses that indicate they easily survive at 65F and dry conditions for nearly 2 weeks.

I can repost if you like.

The far left radicals can’t decide between loving the deep state and claiming it doesn’t exist!

LOL!!!

Singapore

Four more cases discharged; Two new cases of COVID-19 infection confirmed

26th Feb 2020

Four more cases of COVID-19 infection have been discharged from hospital today (Cases 49, 56, 59 and 73). In all, 62 have fully recovered from the infection and have been discharged from hospital.

2. As of 26 February 2020, 12pm, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has confirmed and verified two more cases of COVID-19 infection in Singapore. Contact tracing is underway for these cases to establish any links to previous cases or travel history to China.

Links between previous cases found

3. Further epidemiological investigations and contact tracing have uncovered links between previously announced and new cases. This was made possible with the assistance of the Singapore Police Force.

a) Six of the locally transmitted confirmed cases (Cases 31, 33, 38, 83, 90 and 91), as well as Cases 8 and 9, are linked to The Life Church and Missions Singapore (146B Paya Lebar Road). These six cases are linked to another 23 confirmed cases (Cases 48, 49, 51, 53, 54, 57, 58, 60, 61, 62, 63, 66, 67, 68, 70, 71, 73, 74, 78, 80, 81, 84, 88) who are linked to the Grace Assembly of God.
b) Nine of the confirmed cases (Cases 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, 27, 28, 34 and 40) are linked to Yong Thai Hang (24 Cavan Road).
c) Three of the confirmed cases (Cases 30, 36 and 39) are linked to the business meeting held at Grand Hyatt Singapore from 20 to 22 January.
d) Five of the confirmed cases (Cases 42, 47, 52, 56 and 69) are linked to the Seletar Aerospace Heights construction site.

4. Investigations on these clusters are ongoing. In addition to the clusters, our investigations have identified the following links between cases:
Case 44 is linked to Cases 13 and 26;
Case 72 is linked to Cases 59 and 79;
Case 50 is linked to Cases 55, 65 and 77;
Case 75 is linked to Case 41; and
Case 86 is linked to Case 82.

5. Contact tracing is underway for the other 11 locally transmitted cases to establish any links to previous cases or travel history to mainland China.

About the confirmed cases

Case 92

6. Case 92 is a 47 year-old male Singapore Citizen who has no recent travel history to China. He was confirmed to have COVID-19 infection on 26 February morning and is currently warded in an isolation room at Sengkang General Hospital.

Case 93

7. Case 93 is a 38 year-old male Singapore Citizen who has no recent travel history to China. He was confirmed to have COVID-19 infection on 26 February morning and is currently warded in an isolation room at Ng Teng Fong General Hospital.

Update on condition of confirmed cases

8. To date, a total of 62 cases have fully recovered from the infection and have been discharged from hospital. Of the 31 confirmed cases who are still in hospital, most are stable or improving. Seven are in critical condition in the intensive care unit.

Update on contact tracing for confirmed cases

9. Contact tracing for the confirmed cases is ongoing. Once identified, MOH will closely monitor all close contacts. As a precautionary measure, they will be quarantined for 14 days from their last exposure to the patient. In addition, all other identified contacts who have a low risk of being infected will be under active surveillance, and will be contacted daily to monitor their health status.

10. As of 26 February 2020, 12pm, MOH has identified 2,848 close contacts who have been quarantined. Of these, 259 are currently quarantined, and 2,589 have completed their quarantine.

Health advisory

11. Singaporeans are advised to defer all travel to Hubei Province and all non-essential travel to Mainland China, and Daegu city and Cheongdo county in the Republic of Korea. MOH also reminds the public to continue to exercise caution when travelling to the rest of the Republic of Korea.

12. All travellers should monitor their health closely for two weeks upon return to Singapore and seek medical attention promptly if they feel unwell. Travellers should inform their doctor of their travel history. If they have a fever or respiratory symptoms (e.g. cough, shortness of breath), they should wear a mask and call the clinic ahead of the visit.

13. Travellers and members of the public should adopt the following precautions at all times:
Avoid close contact with people who are unwell or showing symptoms of illness;
Observe good personal hygiene;
Practise frequent hand washing with soap (e.g. before handling food or eating, after going to toilet, or when hands are dirtied by respiratory secretions after coughing or sneezing);
Wear a mask if you have respiratory symptoms such as a cough or shortness of breath;
Cover your mouth with a tissue paper when coughing or sneezing, and dispose the soiled tissue paper in the rubbish bin immediately; and
Seek medical attention promptly if you are feeling unwell.

14. MOH will continue to monitor the situation closely. As medical practitioners are on the lookout for suspect cases, Singapore is likely to see more cases that will need to be investigated.
