Another Chinese report we’re supposed to treat as gospel.

Are the CDC and NIH in China yet?

If not, nuff said.

Patients who are sheltering in place and eating mostly twinkies, baked beans, pork rinds and high fiber cereal had a variety of digestive problems, including emotionally driven and ravenous appetites (nearly 84%), diarrhea from a diet of chemicals and sugars (29%), vomiting when shooting whiskey after snacks (0.8%) and abdominal pain, because, DUH! (0.4%).

Is there anything this virus can’t do?

3 points...

1) This could be true. Severe influenza, for instance, has been known to cause diarrhea.

2) This could be psyops on the part of the ChiComs.

3) It could be both.

There’s a reason the ChiComs have refused to allow the CDC and NIH in.

I’ve sodding had it with the expletive-deleted ChiComs.

I know. They saw all of the “This is the Walking Dead Apocalypse” over the top histrionic media coverage and they all messed themselves.

There was another case earlier, American IIRC who had diarrhea as a presenting, first symptom. It struck me because the only patient I ever saw die from Legionella started out with diarrhea before the respiratory symptoms. By two days. You can’t always just dismiss diarrhea it can be the start of something much bigger.

Never dismiss diarrhea.

From anything. :-)

But how many people think of “respiratory illness” when the chief complaint is diarrhea?

Likely the medicos will.
And with WuFlu testing becoming widely available, hopefully it won’t be an issue. If there’s a risk, test. :-)

I’m not sure the CDC could have figured that even if they were allowed in China. ... and if they did, they would have announced it maybe in May, based on their test kit lag fiasco.

This is surprising because? Swallowing mucous would cause digestive symptoms.
