On 21 November, the infectious disease monitoring network ProMED summarised a news report from China saying that hospitals in Beijing and elsewhere were “overwhelmed with sick children” with undiagnosed pneumonia. This has caused concern about a potential new pandemic and led the World Health Organization to request more information from China on 22 November.
The first of two ProMED posts on the topic cites “a Beijing citizen” as saying fever is the main symptom they have seen in children, with no coughing, but many developing what are known as pulmonary nodules. Neither of the ProMED posts mentions any deaths.
A rise in cases of an unknown illness in China is being investigated by health officials, with children being hospitalised
Infections have proliferated across China’s north-eastern regions, with Beijing and Liaoning, 800 km apart, being two major hubs. “One major hospital in Beijing has reported that on average every day, they are seeing about 1,200 patients enter their emergency room,” Al Jazeera reported on Thursday.

That's fair man and I get that.
I've never used that tick tok or vine stuff. I find it to be poison of the mind. It irks me to see my friends children just absolutely glued to that crap rather then going outside and having BBgun wars like I did as a kid.
But since it is a very popular app in Asian countries I can definitely see how some types of news from those countries would be available sooner on that platform.
I apologize for my previous comment as I read it again it comes off as a dig at you when I should have been more specific or just not said it.

You know what I do not understand is why they are saying the causes are common viruses like flu, RSV, walking pneumonia, and or COVID. They are making it out to be ONLY kids. What about elderly or immunocompramized?
ALSO and this is where I am the most sus, if these are the viruses they claim, why is there no coughing involved. I looked signs and symptoms for each. All of the above include coughing! If this is a group of common viruses, why is it that these outbreaks do not have coughing as a symptom? Why aren't adults affected?

That's where I'm curious as well - IF these are supposedly just butterfly effect(s) of COVID lockdowns, why are the symptoms different than the average and normal virus/sickness?
IMO, if this was what they say it is, it would be the normal run-of-the-mill pneumonia and not some strange Frankenstein sickness that has a different/altered set of symptoms.
This to me screams of something else entirely. Maybe this is what they were working on in that California lab that was found abandoned with all sorts of infectious diseases and lab animals.........?

GREAT...
the paranoid part of me is seeing similarities to the covid outbreak, at least this time MSM is running with it early, which makes me wonder about the election timing.
