Yeah, and just get one of those water purifiers. It’s an investment you hope you’ll never need.

I have a ceramic filter pump. Plus a few bottles of acqua pure tablets. And cases of water. My sump pump goes at 5 gals / 10 minutes when it rains ... in Seattle.

Shanghai shares market up .25% in Monday trading (government buying shares to prevent crash. How long can that work?).

Self contained septic system with 35,000 gallons of pool water and a filtration system. I can go 45 days with no food, water, electricity or sewage for my 16 member family. I got religion with the Ebola scare 3 or 4 years ago.

Old news. We’ve been discussing that, on the CV threads, for a while.

Pretty interesting, about Gates, isn’t it?

My observations are this: There are very little deaths outside China. What causes my eyebrows to raise is the ridiculous C-coms government response to this virus. (Ive never seen anything like it) Chi-coms government are like progressives - they lie. I think it is prudent to prepare - if nothing happens in the next few weeks then good. Nobody wants to use their health insurance obviously.

There is an unfortunate race factor.

People of Asian decent have a five-fold group of ACE 2 receptors, which is what coronaviruses use to get into the body. These are generally expressed in the lungs, but also elsewhere.

Is this referring to the study with 8 samples, and only 1 Asian sample? While interesting and worthy of further study, it is too small of a sample to draw any kind of conclusions.

That’s an interesting discussion of the SARS outbreak in ‘03.

Further down the page is the layout of the 9th floor of the Metropole Hotel in Hong Kong. Interesting case history there.

Two references:

“Asian” issue:

“Smoker” issue:
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/339049390_Tobacco-Use_Disparity_in_Gene_Expression_of_ACE2_the_Receptor_of_2019-nCov

The guy is/was an Asian former smoker who had the ACE 2 issues...

This Twitter vid .... entirely captures the despair we now call China.

Caution in viewing.
