Most who’ve died are old men who smoked their whole lives in China.
Buy and hold
super post thx
I hope no one is following Rush for his corona-virus wisdom.
I think a lot of this will depend on:
Genes (ace2 issues)
Lungs (smoking)
Health care you obtain once you get sick.
Also, if you are taking Ace inhibitors like blood pressure meds perhaps you are less likely to get it or if you do you are more likely to survive
IF all we have learned so far is true then it is NOT the common cold. The official name is “(SARS-CoV-2)”. SARS is an acronym for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. “CoV” is Coronavirus and 2 is the SECOND time a SARS labeled coronovirus has appeared.
How long did this virus hit the news after Nancy visited China?

Coincidence or is Rush right?
I hope he's right, but I'm preparing in case he isn't.Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
I am pretty sure that 2% of the people who get the kinds of flu we’re used to don’t die. If I understand correctly that 2% is also when advanced medical care is available and without it upwards of 20% can die. Also if I understand correctly you don’t develop immunity from this and can be reinfected.
All that said, absolutely, they want to drive the economy down over it in an attempt to dislodge Trump. So far at least nobody really seeks to be blaming Trump for this.
If it does break out here and his admin is seen to have been dishonest and/or inept in dealing with it, however, it absolutely could develop into his Katrina.
I hope he is getting good info, because with good info he is proactive and on top of things.
The survival rate of this is 98%! You have to read very deeply to find that number, that 2% of the people get the coronavirus di
RUSH is smarter then this..the backlog of people in serious will die off even if the new cases decrease..this is why the death rate is now up to 3% using his flawed method (deaths/total cases)
he is being an idiot
example:
Hubie reported 406 new cases but 150 new deaths yesterday
Yeah, say that out loud. Again. Crash the Gulfstream G550 that often. Nuts.
Love Rush of course. I think here Wall Street is largely reacting to real data. For example, it is easy to track the number of flights over China and people are saying they are way down. Similarly, what goes on in Chinese ports is pretty visible. When ships are cancelled or are turned away because of stacked up containers, the market knows. Last week it was reported that ships arriving in China with refrigerated containers are being turned away because the plugs needed for the containers in the ports once unloaded are all already be being used because the workers (trucks?) needed to move out the previously unloaded containers are not there. I am guessing there are quite a few data points like this. IDK, just throwing this out there.
I love Rush but on this thing I do believe that reasonable precautions are the order of the day and not just reckless disregard for a disease that has paralyzed an authoritarian state that doesn’t give a damn about their people.
If China is reacting strongly to this thing then it is serious.
Period.

The good news...
Krispy Kreme now delivers!!
A good conspiracy theorist would suggest that Rush is in on the keep them docile mindset that keeps the sheep calm while the world goes to hell.
//sarcasm
The infection rate is high Epidemiologists are now saying that 40-70% of the population of the entire world is going to get it. It is hyper-contagious. (SOURCE)
They are now touting a death rate of 2%. The flu is 0.1% - this is 20 times worse! That is not the common cold friends!
For elderly people, the death rate is 15%.
There are 7.7 BILLION people in the world, so if:
As Freeper 11th_VA has stated very well,
"This is likely to become the defining event of this generation."
