The coronavirus could be up to 1,000 times more infectious than SARS because it plagues the body in the same way as HIV and Ebola, scientists warn.

Experts initially presumed the spread of COVID-19 would follow the same trajectory as the SARS outbreak in 2002/3, because the viruses are almost identical genetically.

Bait and switch. Claiming China’s epicenter and S. Korea have equal exposure is flat out wrong at best, and willful intellectual dishonesty at worst.

High end real estate in Manhattan has been dropping as the economy in China is weakening. Chinese elites re losing money on their investments and have not been quite as liquid or able to transfer funds into the US. Buying high end real estate in the US was safer than Chinese banks. Now they have less money to invest and need the cash.

>>>Ok. Yeah, using hand sanitizer does do basically the same thing until you walk a few yards to the bathroom was WASH YOUR HANDS.>>>

Yeah, because a bathroom is always a few yards away. Dumber by the minute.

They reject anything that disturbs their fantasy that COVID19 is not just another seasonal flu. They firmly believe it is a hoax aimed at DJT. Its a waste of time to deal with these COVID19 trolls; they are on al the COVID19 threads insisting that everyone supply the with links documentation sources and so on and then finding fault with them while placing implicit trust in the CCP numbers ... go figure.

>>>I’m seeing that 3 out of 4 people don’t wash their hands in public restrooms>>>

Me too. However, I will say this. If I can take a leak without touching my junk, or anything else but my pants and zipper....I have skipped washing my hands because I figure I haven’t touched anything so why risk touching a faucet or towel dispenser, or anything now. LOL...know what I mean? It’s possible.....:)

Why in the heck would you accuse a longtime freeper of being a communist troll? Pretty small of you huh?

If I can take a leak without touching my junk,......Why is your junk filthy? I remember a Marine saw me zip up after pissing and as I left the area he said “we were taught to wash our hands after pissing.” I said “ We were taught not to piss on our hands.”

Isnt it weird how the same people on FR that dismiss all scientists when it comes to “climate change”, and will quickly tell you how “controled” the Chinese communist scientists are, and thus are all liars, are the ones that breathlessly post something from a scientist from China?

....

Exactly! Well said!

They get down right pi$$ed when you point out that less than 3,000 have died from COVID-19. You’d think they’d be happy, but they get more unhinged with their dire predictions! Very strange!

Guess I should have added </sarc>

Firstly, I can’t afford a pot to p&ss in, let alone a window to throw it out of, so buying property ANYWHERE is out of my league! Secondly, I much prefer Calgary to Vancouver in the winter, weatherwise. Thirdly, Vancouver is on the ‘Left’ coast whereas AB tends to be more conservative, so I would not move there.

If they confirm it is a bioweapon, they’ll have to find the source. Hopefully, it isn’t originally Harvard or that lab in Colorado....

What about the guys exiting the stalls that only touch the paper and not their ass? Hand washing is a good habit, even when you don’t go to the bathroom. (This thread is going down the drain lol)

I wonder if it’s a planned release in a way the world will not blame China, kill their own and ours, to weaken us, they can lose a few million, it may be war to them, we just don’t know it yet,,, I hope I am wrong, but have given up on a moral populous..
