Trevor Bedford, a computational biologist at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, suggested the estimates are sobering and point to continued spread.

“If it’s not contained shortly, I think we are looking at a pandemic,” Bedford said, though he cautioned that it’s impossible to know at this point how severe that type of event would be.

Sounds like they won't even try.

Are we looking at a prelude to a "Planet of the Apes" type infectious disease that'll wipe out 1/3 of the population?

It’s interesting that its lesser pathogenicity makes it harder to contain.

From New England Journal of Medicine.

“A lack of severe disease manifestations affects our ability to contain the spread of the virus. Identification of chains of transmission and subsequent contact tracing are much more complicated if many infected people remain asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic (assuming that these people are able to transmit the virus). More pathogenic viruses that transmit well between humans can generally be contained effectively through syndromic (fever) surveillance and contact tracing, as exemplified by SARS-CoV and, more recently, Ebola virus. Although containment of the ongoing Ebola virus outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo is complicated by violent conflict, all previous outbreaks were contained through identification of cases and tracing of contacts, despite the virus’s efficient person-to-person transmission.”

We just got back from Aldis. There was a Chinese couple several spots ahead in line. The guy was coughing and sneezing. We ran back to the car and hit the hand sanitizer then drove home and took a shot of elderberry tincture and some colloidal silver. 😄

Maybe it’s time to stock up on dog food and coffee. Essentials in case there’s a disruption to society.

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.

First identified case: 01 DEC 2019.

Think about that; means exposure was sometime before 22 NOV 2019 and there has been 527 flights as week out of Wuhan International with an average of 275 people per flight. That’s 1.16 million possible vectors, many of which continued on another flight.

It most certainly NOT be contained.
No chance in hell.

But everyone can hope it mutates into a regular cold or something more benign. Or that a miracle vaccine is developed in record time.

Other than that you’re going to catch it eventually.

This will bring down governments everywhere as survivors realize government, with the principal charge of protecting its citizens, failed every step along the way.

And lied at each of those stops too.

When you can easily travel anywhere in the world within the time period of the disease being contagious this stuff is serious! Wait till it turns up in your town or village middle America.The CDC seems once again to be trying to perfume a pig.

Government propaganda alert! Government propaganda alert!

This is another of their scare tactics in order to try to get you to be like a little sheep and go for their poison they’re going to try to sell you otherwise known as vaccines

What is the answer to kill viruses you ask? It is colloidal silver you can either purchase it or make it yourself

Colloidal silver kills all viruses and you don’t need the government or vaccines and it’s all free
