I’m concerned about the Coorsavirus too.

But I heard it’s much weaker than the Coronavirus.

There’s the Milleravirus. But I hear only cheap alcoholics get it.

the corona virus is what amounts to media crisis relief from reporting the fake impeachment fiasco

Crisis relief is the media version of Shakespearean comic relief

Errr...how reliable is that translation?

Read it again, carefully.

Particularly in stories where EVERYONE has to comment, and does, it's easy to let buzzwords slide right past.

It didn't say..."meets to control coronavirus".

It said on the prevention and control of the outbreak of pneumonia caused by the novel coronavirus.

Pneumonia is far more serious than the flu, right?

With a higher death rate?

How many zoonotic viruses have been known to cause human pneumonia rather than flu?

It has a R0 of 2.5 to 3.8. That is how many people get infected by an infected person. The flu has a R0 of 1.28.

This aint no joke friend. Admitted mortality figures show 4%.

4% of around 8 billion people is scary. The Spanish flu of 1918 had a 3% mortality rate.

Airborne transmission from asymptomatic carriers.

I have my N95 masks, goggles and gloves and decon station. Do you?

I take 7,000 units of vitamin D3 each day during winter /flu season

D3 is much more effective in preventing catching the disease than all your paraphernalia D3 prohibits the transmission in the lungs and bronchea for such respiratory problems

Pneumonia is a complication that often develops from the flu -- zoonotic and other forms.

There will be more protests as the Hong Kong government does nothing to prevent the inflow of infected Chinese people from the mainland. Some hospital staff are threatening to go on strike if the government doesn’t implement preventive measurements at the border.

Strange, isn't there a lab working with this virus (and ebola) just 20 miles from the Seafood Market?

I did a quick google search (yeah, I know) to see what would come up with the stories I am hearing that Bill and Melinda Gates actually bought rights to a vaccine for this type of virus and I was met with pages of "fact checker" websites saying this is conspiracy theory created by "ant-vaxxers, far right wing extremists, Q anon followers and 4 chan weirdos" and that, thankfully, Facebook is hard at work scrubbing their boards of such nonsense.
