I have been saying since day 1 - if they left the passengers on the ship they will all catch the virus for the simple reason that Cruise ship crew members are not trained in proper isolation procedure.

They can go through the motions but if you don’t do it correctly you may as well not do it at all.

I personally believe when all said and done it is the crew members that are spreading the virus (not on purpose but out of ignorance).

I agree. I wonder how many of the crew are sick now.

Watch the video, people, and remember, our bureaucrats are no less arrogant...
Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

No infection control?

You mean all the annual Norwalk outbreaks aboard cruuse ships lead people to expect that cruise ship companies know something about infection control?

SNORT.

Watched the Twitter video...wow!

The guy (that knows disease control well) was scared for his life just being on that cruise ship.

According to the video, they're barely doing the motions, and studiously keeping infection control specialists away from the ship.

A few people recovered from the first time by their own immune system, but the meds they use are damaging their heart tissue.

What meds are they talking about here?

Also impossible to shut down the ventilation system.

They'll have to burn the ship. Who'd want to sail on it after this?

It was stupid to think a quarantine could actually be accomplished on a cruise ship. They are more like floating petri dishes. To think that an airborne disease can be contained between rooms of a steel box with a common ventilation system without any filtering or disinfectant is absurd.

It is likewise stupid to think anyone on an airplane can be isolated.

Summer and sunlight are all that will pause this disease spread. The chicoms may have killed a lot of us with their booming economy and power and arrogance.
