The most important question so far. Quoted:
Quoted:
The Washington patient, was he symptomatic and contagious on the aircraft? Seems a whole bunch of people probably caught their connecting flights after exposure. It likely won’t be limited to Washington for long. Additionally we are heading into Chinese new year. They don't do family Christmas like we do in the US, but EVERYBODY gathers for Chinese new year. So one person on plane/train/bus going to family homestead in rural village place XYZ. then 2 days later they are back on a 747 headed for LAX, SEA, SYD, ect. |

News reports here revealed officials are not saying what local clinic he walked into initially and got tested prior to being transported to the hospital quarantine. No telling how many more may have been exposed.
"Last night, the Snohomish Health District coordinated with local partners to safely transport the patient to Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett. This is all being done following our jointly developed infectious disease protocols. No one wants to be the first in the nation in these types of situations, but these are the types of situations that public health and its partners train and prepare for. Because of this, everything has been going along quite smoothly," said Dr. Chris Spitters, Health Officer, Snohomish Health District. The assclown Inslee had the audacity to laugh it off as minor risk at his press conference.

Eventually the world's population will need a check, and mother nature will provide it 
It's probably gonna be bad when it happens  It's really only a matter of time before another pathogen like that hits us. |

This is how it starts. I guess we'll know in about 60 days if its going to be a problem. Meanwhile don't read 'The Stand'. :) |

I remember the Ebola tards and all the SHTF circle jerk threads years ago...here is to more entertainment from that crowd. It’s got to be exhausting to constantly think the sky is falling. 34,000 people died from influenza in the US last year and you guys are worked up over this? |

Dr. Niman says the death rate is higher than SARS.
Happy Lunar New Year and week off to travel and see family.
"Like many major holidays, Lunar New Year is best spent with family and friends. The tradition is so crucial that LNY travel is annually heralded as the ‘world’s largest human migration’. In 2019, 3 billion trips were projected to be made during the holiday season." |

And when has a communist country been known to give accurate numbers with regard to negative news? Bet it’s waaaay more deaths Let’s see this virus hit a western medical system before going full retard. |

Quoted:
From the video clips it looks like their medical teams are using a significant level of PPE. If that’s how they’re responding then either they’re being extra cautious or they’ve been working it for awhile. |

Quoted: Word is that despite the precautions a good number of them have fallen ill to it. I did all kinds of modeling of every type of disaster scenario you can dream up...with OEM officials from the municipal to the federal level. For almost anything we concocted, their was always some form of command and control that we came up with to respond to the situation. When we did pandemics, I basically told everyone that there is no realistic response plan....we are all dead.

That said, it is a crapshoot if government would allow such a thing. I could see them going door to door, rousting both sick and well people from their homes and putting them in one place "for safety". Look at 1917 Influenza if you want to see how things play out with draconian public health measures during a pandemic. They weren't rounding people up. Quarantines, travel bans, prohibitions on public gatherings, closing public venues, theaters, etc... |

Quoted:
videos in the tweet links Detection to over 440 confirmed cases (many more unconfirmed) in 3 weeks despite IC and PH... yay transparency, sequencing, and getting the PCR test available... BUT... Incubation time is unknown? Has to be relatively short. AND/OR R(0) is unknown? Has to be pretty damned high. 1 week incubation and R(0) greater than 7 just to throw out basic numbers... (ie shorter incubation and more contagious than SARS/MERS... WAY more contagious than the flu) How long are patients contagious without being symptomatic? CDC is advising airborne and contact precautions. So I mask the patient, put them in AIIR, and have everyone wear gowns, gloves, and PAPRs... only 25% of my ICU rooms are AIIR and that is a higher rate than most facilities. And why are the Chinese wearing full suits and containment stretchers like it's fucking Ebola? 20+ sick healthcare workers for 400+ confirmed cases... |

From the video clips it looks like their medical teams are using a significant level of PPE. If that’s how they’re responding then either they’re being extra cautious or they’ve been working it for awhile. Why so many healthcare workers in full PPE? There are dozens in the same room, with other people just walking around that are not in PPE. Something is not right about that. |

Quoted:
We have no idea if it’s actually 2% with a sample size as small as it is at this given time. Quoted:
Quoted: it is new ( large mutation ) and nobody has any immunity to it. A novel virus with a 2% + mortality rate that spreads as easily as the common cold is a big deal Or it could be a lot less with many infections that are unknown because they are not that sick and don't go to the hospital. It is too early to tell. |

So are we picking and choosing when and where we take the Chinese word for things or do you always believe the Chinese? Quoted:
Quoted: But if the chinese govt is saying that, it means they probably know it already has. This is the same govt that hid the SARS virus from the world until they could not hide it anymore They did it with H1N1, H5N1 and with SARS. SO not sure what you are getting at. When did the chinese ever tell the world about the truth about anything? |
