But after seeing the spread-pattern, I have to wonder. There are still some intangibles and incongruities to this whole scenario. Firstly, where are all the dead birds? Have birds and other animals suddenly developed an immunity to the virus - if so, what immunity do they carry that is lacking within humans? What, within the human vector, determines whether you will get it or not? Up to this point, there have not been a significant number of children who have died with the virus - you would expect they would get the virus and die within some reasonable percentage of the population.
Finally, why point to Cuba? If (And I still say IF) this is an engineered event, could it not be coming from elsewhere on (or off) of the continent? Actually, given the spread rate, couldn't it be coming from multiple locales?
There are a lot of unanswerable variables, given our present body of knowledge about the pandemic. I'm not quite ready to say that there is a deliberate spread, but I'm not quite ready to doff the tin-foil either...
That's what I'm wondering. A bat eat thousands of mosquitos every day. To my knowledge, they aren't sure if the virus can be passed via ingestion. Wasn't there a case where a mother with the virus was breast feeding her baby and they were concerned about the baby? If it can be passed this way, then that would be really frightening.
