Dr. Nancy Messonnier, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Preventions (CDC) National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, warned that the spread of Chinas deadly coronavirus in the United States is all but certain and said Americans everyday life could be dramatically affected.
As more and more countries experience community spread, successful containment at our borders becomes harder and harder, Messonnier told reporters on Tuesday afternoon.
Its not a question of if this will happen but when this will happen and how many people in this country will have severe illnesses, the top public health official added. Disruption to everyday life might be severe.
Messonnier said the continued spread of the virus has led to a shift to a more dire tone.
The data over the last week and spread in other countries has certainly raised our level of concern, and raised our level of expectation that we are going to have community spread here, so that has changed our tone, she said.
The illness that originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan has now infected more than 80,000 people globally. 77,000 cases have been confirmed in China with others in parts of Europe and the Middle East.
To date, 57 cases have been confirmed in the U.S., including 40 cases of people who the government transported from the Diamond Princess cruise ship from Japan.
The virus spread caused the U.S. stock market to plunge.
An expected rebound after Mondays 1,000-point nosedive on Wall Street had yet to materialize by midday Tuesday.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down nearly 500 points by 1 p.m. EST. The S&P 500 was down about 50 points and the Nasdaq 122 points.
The 10-year Treasury yield hit a record low of 1.32 percent Tuesday while the 30-year bond also fell.

Never hurts to boost your overall resistance and sufficient vitamin C along with NAC as mentioned certainly cant hurt.
Fighting the flu virus!
Just ran across the following article by Dr. Andrew W. Saul what seems to confirm the effectiveness of vitamin C. Along here NAC (N-Acetyl Cysteine) deserves also to be mentioned a precursor to a very potent anti-oxidant glutathione, which is also used as an antidote against acetaminophen, as well as many other poisonous substances.
Comment: Dr. Andrew W. Saul, an international expert on vitamin therapy, says: The coronavirus can be dramatically slowed or stopped completely with the immediate widespread use of high doses of vitamin C. Bowel tolerance levels of C taken in divided doses throughout the day, is a clinically proven antiviral, without equal.
Fighting the flu virus, this may include the new corona virus as well. A while back when the H-1 N-1 virus was active (2009) some one from the medical profession suggested the use of a good dose of NAC or N-Acetyl Cysteine along with a healthy dose of buffered ascorbic acid (Vitamin C-about twice as much C as NAC) and it appeared to work like a charm.
This has a 20% fatality rate if you still have it after the second week. And it’s still not clear for a majority of patients whether you ever recover (you still have the virus in you).
Viruses are unlikely to spread easily past April. They cannot perpetuate hysteria until November.
I hope COVID-19 proves the death of "political correctness" and the heretofore vorbotten open acknowledgement that there ARE differences between the races that are more than skin deep.

Honestly this only kills the very young, very old and the weak. 98% of us will just be all right. Will it destroy humanity? No. Life goes on.
Trump has the opportunity to become a wartime president - fighting the Coronavirus. The RATs will do everything to disrupt - make universal coverage an issue, so everyone can be treated; legalize illegals so they wont hide, and carry the virus, etc. Its going to be a wild in the coming months ...
She is Rosenstein’s sister!!!!!!!
Just a coincidence!!!
The only thing one must consider is Mexico.. The border, the drug flow ain't going to stop and that means lots of folks coming and going across the border... We haven't heard a word from Mexico or South America about the disease, and there are LOTS of Chinese traffic in that region.. BIG problem..!
US health officials say human trials on coronavirus vaccine to start in 6 weeks
For about 20% of vulnerable population. 80% have normal flu.
Problem is the “known knowns, the known unknowns and the unknown unknowns “. H/T Donald Rumsfeld.
CLOSE THE SOUTHERN BORDER!!
That’s the case with the standard flu. This is different. Look at all the until-then-healthy medical providers in China who have succumbed to it.
BINGO!
Are all followers of Jesus praying for our safety? We are to pray without ceasing.
