I don’t think they are saying the danger is over, just that it has a lower degree of mortality than previously believed - at least that is my take on it.

And it is still highly contagious.

Heh, heh. Yeah, I finally got there. Looks like it’s legit, except for his adding the word “DANGEROUS”. It misrepresents what they are saying.

Which means it’s not the end of the world and we can go back to work .anyone who thinks this just got here last month is not very bright. This was here all winter. It’s not bad at all stop listening to media hype and bs . More new diagnosis in New York then Italy because it was already here. Scary to think so many Americans are this dumb.

How dare they do this! This latest Chinese death virus exaggeration is yet another example of the deep State trying to take down the presidency of President Trump. They know no ends to their perfidy.

Status of COVID-19

As of 19 March 2020, COVID-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence infectious diseases (HCID) in the UK.

The 4 nations public health HCID group made an interim recommendation in January 2020 to classify COVID-19 as an HCID. This was based on consideration of the UK HCID criteria about the virus and the disease with information available during the early stages of the outbreak. Now that more is known about COVID-19, the public health bodies in the UK have reviewed the most up to date information about COVID-19 against the UK HCID criteria.

They have determined that several features have now changed; in particular, more information is available about mortality rates (low overall), and there is now greater clinical awareness and a specific and sensitive laboratory test, the availability of which continues to increase.

The Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) is also of the opinion that COVID-19 should no longer be classified as an HCID.

The need to have a national, coordinated response remains, but this is being met by the government’s COVID-19 response.

Cases of COVID-19 are no longer managed by HCID treatment centres only. All healthcare workers managing possible and confirmed cases should follow the updated national infection and prevention (IPC) guidance for COVID-19, which supersedes all previous IPC guidance for COVID-19. This guidance includes instructions about different personal protective equipment (PPE) ensembles that are appropriate for different clinical scenarios.

Don’t you know old man fauci says we have to level the curve before we become zombies. I’m home clutching my pearls. So panicked. Lol. This was the biggest crock of shit in human history.

I think saying it is no longer dangerous refers to the mortality rate... but that's a guess.

I get that but there are nearly 10,000 cases so far and the rising curve is concerning. Daily cases are still on the upswing.

Yeah - and the curve will level regardless of what else is done...then he and others can take credit for it after being panic mongers for so long.

At least he's been more in line with the President than he was earlier on - probably to try to retain his "rep" as a "leading expert"...

I expect we wil see a continuing stream of culprits attempting to walk back their previous criminal over-response to a “pandemic” which so far rivals none of the past 10 years flu seasons.

The virus is real. The hoax in public media content regarding the virus is real.
We are all played 24/7.
