People mean well, but they get off track.
That’s about all you can say.
I saw it too.
It’s an asian thing, we shouldn’t worry.
they’re filthy in china, we shouldn’t worry.
there’s no virus, china is doing this to centralize stuff more and scare their people.
etc.
Yes, that is an uncertain number and quite plausible in Communist China. But I think evidence of that would eventually get out.
Lots of video on twitter of that thing. Hazmat crews taking bodies away out of homes.
bump!
This case does nothing to dispute that. It's the spouse of someone that got it in China, and that was already under observation. When it's spreading amongst people in the wild is when you need to worry.
I’ve seen some of them.
In one video I was watching, there seemed to be gunfire in the background, off camera.
Couldn’t help but wonder what was up with that.
I’m not talking about one or two shots either. It was a stead single shot sound topping at least a 10-15 count.

Thermal scanning at airports detects less than 1 in 5 passengers arriving from a 12 hour flight who are infected with the new coronavirus, according to preliminary estimates from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM).
Flu goes from thousands of cases to millions of cases in about two months.
Thanks for the information and link.
RE: In 2003, a total of 8,096 people in 29 countries got SARS and 774 of them died.Only eight people in the United States got SARS. None of them died.
OK, compare that with what we have seen so far after 4 weeks:
SEE HERE:
https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6
In 2020, We have had worldwide, 8,235 KNOWN cases of The Novel Coronavirus. This has spread so far to 22 countries.
Of these, 8,124 are in China. 171 have died and 143 have recovered.
We have 6 known cases in the USA thus far (one via person to person transmission from a spouse). There are no deaths (yet).
No one has died (yet) outside China.
My conclusion -— This particular Coronavirus is spreading FASTER than SARS.
Thank you Black Agnes.
I would agree with that.
It does bring to question the methods used to identify and quantify with each disease.
Was China as geared up to identify and quantify the affected popullation base back then? If they are more on top of things now, they may be identifying more people simply because they are functioning on a higher level.
Per WRVA Radio - Richmond VA (ABC News) 1500 Hrs EST; WHO just declared 2019-nCoV “a global emergency” ...”cases increased 10-fold in one week”
if you’re swapping spit with your infected wife, yeah, you’re gonna get sick - like any other disease So the headline is a bit misleading.
But apparently they don’t recommend any restrictions to travel or trade at this time.
I just bought my wife bottles of Vitamin C and Zinc.
I've been taking megadoses of vitamins and minerals for decades. I'm one of those picky eaters you may have heard about with a vast list of vegetables that do not exist in my reality.
I credit daily Lecithin capsules for my lack of heart problems compared to all of my relatives and my cardiologist agreed that it possibly helped. My cardiologist gave me a clean bill of health and told me to come back if I ever had a symptom.
Makes no sense, does it ...’guess we have to wait until 2019-nCoV becomes an “intergalactic emergency!”
