When reports of a new virus circulating in China’s Hubei province first began to emerge, I was cautious about overreacting. I’ve reported on health long enough to know that just because a pathogen is new doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a crisis.
Of course, I quickly realized this isn’t just any virus. We’re currently battling a global pandemic unlike any we’ve seen in over a century.
But it’s also not the first modern virus we’ve faced. In the past two decades, the world battled Ebola, SARS and more than one major flu outbreak. Those left tragedies in their wake but didn’t cause the same level of societal and economic disruption that COVID-19 has. As a result, they can help us understand this new coronavirus — to capture how unique our new reality is, it helps to look back at similar outbreaks that threatened to upend society, but ultimately stopped short.
1. SARS and MERS: Deadly, but not easily spread
In late 2002, an emerging pathogen that likely spilled over from the animal world started to cause severe respiratory illness in China. Sound familiar? Through the first half of 2003, the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) spread through 26 countries, infecting at least 8,098 people and killing at least 774.
If the name didn’t give it away, SARS was caused by a virus similar to the one that causes COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, but it didn’t have nearly the same impact. This is in spite of having a relatively high case fatality rate of 9.6 percent, compared to the current estimate for COVID-19: 1.4 percent.
Another respiratory illness caused by a coronavirus, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, or MERS, has an even higher case fatality rate of 34 percent. But it’s also led to fewer deaths than what we’ve already seen from COVID-19:

You thought I was serious?
Ok. You are nuts. Have a good night.
+100!!
Yes you can. You've heard of scanning tunneling electron microscopes.
Because this is an election year, and Donald Trump is President.
re: “Yes I do you BIG DH!!”
Your first answer called out the use of a microscope which CLEARLY is impossible since you cannot even SEE a Coronavirus with a microscope. You CAN with an electron microscope, but THAT is a whole ‘nother thing.
HERE are your words: “You do it with a microscope and perform various ...”
Geesh.
Done here.
They also stopped counting H1N1 deaths in 2009 and by 2010 were only relying on models (same with WHO).

re: “Yes you can. You’ve heard of scanning tunneling electron microscopes. “
You idiot, that is an entirely differ thing.
Geesh.
Idiot.
re: “You thought I was serious?”
Yeah. cuz ... of course not, moron! Get real.
I did not say certain things because you don’t do it on here DH! Did you ever hold a clearance? Do you understand how intel is gathered? You are not a just BIG DH you are a COLOSSAL DH!
re: “Have you been in a lab in the last 50 years?”
Are you an idiot?
Do you know how big (or small) a “nm” (nanometer) is?
C’mon, morons, get smart.
re: “I did not say certain things because you ...”
You don’t know, you didn’t even try. Fail.
FAIL. FAIL. Fail.
because it’s Presidential election year:

1 Aug 2018: LewRockwell.com: Covertly Funded By A Billionaire Trump Hater, Would The Deep State Conspire With De-funded Infectious Disease Researchers To Release A Deadly Flu Vaccine Just Prior To A Presidential Election
By Bill Sardi
On March 9, 2018 I wrote a column posted at LewRockwell.com about the infectious disease industry issuance of a warning that a mutated flu virus could kill 300 million people in what appeared to be false threat (extortion) to avert planned budget cuts by the Trump administration in infectious disease research...
Just over four months later a consortium of government health experts and politicians now have simulated an outbreak of a flu-like virus that could plausibly kill 900 million people. In a report published in the Daily Mail (July 30, 2018), public health authorities report “the simulation predicted how governments and health authorities around the world would react to a deadly infection spreading so quickly” … and with no vaccine found “the virus could go on to wipe out a huge chunk of the world’s population,” said the news report.
The parties involved in this simulation and the source of funding for this “fake flu pandemic” exercise is very troubling.
The Daily Mail report said: “Real health experts took part in the experiment, including US politicians Tom Daschle and Susan Brooks, and former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Julie Gerberding.”
The exercise was conducted under the auspices of the Center for Health Security based at Johns Hopkins University and the designer of the simulation is Dr. Eric Toner...
The current pandemic exercise, coined CLADE X, was a day-long simulation of National Security Council meeting played by government leaders from prominent fields of national security. In small print at the bottom of the description of the exercise is mention that it is funded by the Open Philanthropy Project. Here is where things become very troubling.
The Open Philanthropy Project is funded by billionaire Dustin Moskovitz and his wife Cari Tuna. Their net worth is reported to be $12.7 billion...
According to a report published in the New York Times, prior to the election of President Donald Trump, Moskovitz pledged $20 million to aid the Democrat Party...

Wikipedia: Dustin Moskovitz (co-founded Facebook with Mark Zuckerberg, Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum and Chris Hughes)
For the 2016 United States Presidential election, Moskovitz announced that he and his wife would donate $20 million to support Hillary Clinton, the Democratic Party nominee, arguing that the dangers of a Donald Trump presidency are significant, and that they were making their donation despite being skeptical of allowing large donors to influence election cycles through money. The New York Times quoted Moskovitz’s blog post on the subject: “The Republican Party, and Donald Trump in particular, is running on a zero-sum vision, stressing a false contest between their constituency and the rest of the world.” This made him the third-largest donor in the 2016 campaigns...
Moskovitz is married to Cari Tuna. Tuna currently works full time on Good Ventures, the couple’s private foundation, as well as the Open Philanthropy Project, a spinoff of a collaboration between Good Ventures and GiveWell. Tuna is a former Yale Daily News writer and journalist for The Wall Street Journal...

DO you have any idea what you’re looking at, how htey obtained that image?
C’mon smart-azz guy, tell us all ... it’s not an optical microscope, idiot. WE just went through this.
