Corona Virus Updates Part 2

a reply to: Agit8dChop

OP, when you begin part 3, could you please include links to parts 1 & 2 in the opening post?

To anyone with the skills and interest, is there any way that a script could be written in order to archive all of the pages of each thread at Archive Today so that all of the information herein will not be lost due to some future problem with this website such as what happened with the original Fukushima megathread?

It could be done manually, but would take quite some time. If there is a quick and easy script which could perform that task then you would be performing a great service for future generations who might wish to look back at was was being said about this event as it was occurring.



This article in The Lancet answers some questions about how the virus progressed in the one patient in Nepal:

On Jan 13, 2020, a 32-year-old man, a Nepalese student at Wuhan University of Technology, Wuhan, China, with no history of comorbidities, returned to Nepal. He presented at the outpatient department of Sukraraj Tropical and Infectious Disease Hospital, Kathmandu, with a cough. He had become ill on Jan 3, 6 days before he flew to Nepal. He indicated no exposure to the so-called wet market in Wuhan.
...
His fever was no longer present on Jan 16, and his clinical condition improved. He was discharged the next day and instructed to self-quarantine at home. Laboratory tests showed no abnormalities. Real-time RT-PCR assays for influenza A and B viruses, and NS1 antigen rapid tests for dengue viruses, scrub typhus, and Brucella spp were negative. Follow-up assessments on Jan 29 and Jan 31 gave an RT-PCR negative throat swab for 2019-nCoV. Informed consent was obtained from the patient to be included in this Correspondence.

60k I heard yesterday at like 9gmt time am

It said 9 minutes ago was when that article was published.


PUBLISHED THU, FEB 13 20207:30 AM ESTUPDATED 9 MIN AGO

Earlier on the thread, someone posted information about SRAS vaccine that induced greater mortality rate to mices infected with SRAS . Was due to more aggressive immunity response.

Someone also posted information about new mandatory vaccination law in china.

If a country plan to develop a bio weapon, it would be normal to vaccinate their people against it first.

Just conspiracy theory here... And when the bio weapon virus is released, what if that vaccine make your own population sicker than the rest of the planet.... like sras vaccine did ..?....

I came across this week old article from Military Times via Twitter.

U.S. Northern Command is executing plans to prepare for a potential pandemic of the novel coronavirus, now called COVID19, according to Navy and Marine Corps service-wide messages issued this week.

An executive order issued by the Joint Staff and approved by Defense Secretary Mark Esper this month directed Northern Command and geographic combatant commanders to initiate pandemic plans, which include ordering commanders to prepare for widespread outbreaks and confining service members with a history of travel to China.

But it also goes on to say:

But in no way “does the planning indicate a greater likelihood of an event developing. As military professionals, planning for a range of contingencies is something we owe the American people," Navy Lt. Cmdr. Mike Hatfield said.

US military prepping for coronavirus pandemic

Can anyone here in the Military confirm if this level of preparedness is normal and was the same for past epidemics, like SARS, Ebola, etc.?

I have always thought that it was not right to be producing vaccines there in manufacturing facilities that are so toxic that ghost inspections were held rather then direct inspection. Also with all of the recent recalls late last year it is not in the publics best interest.

Funny thing, when this all began during the Nixon administration decades ago the talking heads warned about outsourcing. This crisis is a perfect example of 'every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction'. Now the chickens are coming home to roost.

Precisely.

It's one thing to have smaller, scattered outbreaks of this thing. It seems to me that most people who get this will be able to fight it on their own. It's the ones who develop the more severe version that we ought to worry about.

They will need concentrated care and close care for a prolonged period of time.

Will we be able to manage the illness such that we can keep our medical facilities from being overwhelmed as badly as China's have been? I think that's the critical question to answer. If we can, then I think we'll make it through.

I think the real issue is going to be that people that have little or no symptoms will not realize that they are contagious with the likelihood that they may spread the virus to some people who won't be so lucky with their symptoms being more severe.

And if it winds up being true that this virus targets Asians, well, if this is an engineered organism, it sure is a tricky little devil.

Global cases soar above 60K

I luv how most major news sources have created UpDate's on COVID19...a 24 hour update page...

I been using the John Hopkins or the DW (deutsch world) Updates lists & have already linked their page addresses
Thanks for another site... of great value as these pages usually got videos of importance....


wish more ATS posters would get familiar with these resources about the Outbreak disease/virus/'plague from China'

Yeah but the threat of terrorism is pretty low. At least here in the US.

tbh i think dance tables tinfoil hats on a bit tight .

a reply to: Maker22

most likely not as the virus is out of the bag,

Just looked on my Twitter 2 unconfirmed reports. Death of a woman in Iran due to the virus and video of police in China checking their weapons followed by people checking people who appear to be dead with gunfire in the background. People around the bodies not flinching at the sound of gunfire.

I use it as a flu because that's what it is, its a bat/rat etc flu that got transferred to humans

now its in humans we need to fight it

who here takes there pets for a flu jab

Soooo let me get this straight, the flu is virus, covid-19 is a virus. So, they're both flu (in your words)... That's like saying Ebola is the flu. Come on man.

She tested negative, was released, and then readmitted a week later.

That fits with the question of dormancy I've asked several times in these threads. Since it's not unusual for some viruses to be present in a body, laying dormant and virtually undetectable by standard tests, I am very concerned this virus does the same. (Which again would screw with the timeline and make these 14 day quarantines pretty pointless)

Yeah, the scary thing that is bothering me is that "recovered" victims might be recovered only from the symptoms, but NEVER cured of being a random and intermittent future source of infection to others.

The update seems to mean they have added more information. Edited the original report.

I have a LOT of links with updates and an aggregator. I have just gotten home maybe an hour ago and started checking. O did not link in posts anything that didnt have a recent update.

There should be 6 months to a year of tests and monitoring of a control group

Others members certainly know more, but from my understanding viruses never leave our bodies,we just become immune until it mutates.
shedding without symptoms is a spooky area and deserves more attention imo

Well we might not know who ‘they’ are, or already have a vaccine. I wouldn’t want to release a virus on the world without a personal antidote for myself and chosen few.
Well wouldn’t want to do virus bit in first place I’m happy to say though making such a plan is not completely beyond my level of comprehension of human nature.

Another perspective of this is perhaps the Chinese were working on just that, in the form of a vaccine, and the test subjects didn't react as designed. Perhaps they tried to have it targeting Asians for the enhanced immunity and it just all went sideways on them, big time. It sure would explain a lot concerning why China is trying hard to keep this all under wraps and destroying evidence as quickly as they can. IMHO, of course.

looking down and away, flushed face, yep either hes lying or really nervous about it, particularly telling is the " we don't yet know how big the iceburg is " which given they've been there is worrying, i mean they should know facts by now not still be guessing
