Chinese state media is reporting that authorities are going door-to-door in Wuhan, and taking everyone who has the virus, or is suspected of having the virus, or who has an unexplained fever & has a close contact with the virus, and putting them all in quarantine camps/hospitals

No update on that San Benito couple who were sent to UCSF because their conditions “deteriorated” quickly after home self isolation.

‘...suspected of having the virus...’

Because if they didn’t have it before, they’ll surely have it now!

BREAKING: The #Pentagon is preparing almost a dozen military installations around the country that could be used to house evacuees because of the #coronavirus. The bases, both reserve and active duty, are all located near major airports - including Atlanta, DFW, LA, SF, NY, etc.

I’ve never, in my entire life, seen chicoms behave this way.

These numbers are a joke. Everyone know that. At best, they are a reflection of testing capacity, but, in truth, this is a society that says if you died of pneumonia, you died of pneumonia, if they say you are recovered, you are recovered, and so on.

All I know is that if Chief Brody is panicked, I am wary, but not overly so. Chief Brody is paid to panic on my behalf. But if you suddenly realize that the last you saw of Mayor Vaughn he was on a Greyhound leaving Amity, it is time to get out of the water.

The Chinese authorities love money far too much to do this unless that were seeing (and hiding) numbers that were truly awful.

flight deck has separate air. They could even go on canned air for the entire flight. As long as they’re not going around French-kissing the cafeteria guys, it’s cool. Remember a lot of these pilots are former military so they are informed and self-aware.

Single Mutation Could Significantly Enhance Wuhan Coronavirus

By AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR MICROBIOLOGY FEBRUARY 2, 2020

Decade-long structural studies by Fang Li of the University of Minnesota, et al. have shown how the SARS virus (SARS-CoV) interacts with animal and human hosts in order to infect them.

<SNIP>

“Alarmingly, our data predict that a single mutation [at a specific spot in the genome] could significantly enhance [the Wuhan coronavirus’s] ability to bind with human ACE2,” the investigators write. For this reason, Wuhan coronavirus evolution in patients should be closely monitored for the emergence of novel mutations at the 501 position in its genome, and to a lesser extent, the 494 position, in order to predict the possibility of a more serious outbreak than has been seen so far.{emphasis mine.}
