I'm going to bed!
In Spain - no news here apart from 2 cases on the islands who recovered, strange no more because many have arrived back from China. 50 came on UK evacuees plane alone.
Have masks for us and stocked up, have plan.

Something is bugging me and I cant put my finger on it!

What can hide in plain site but remain undetected or kept secret?
China's reaction is astronomical when you consider their annual flu death numbers which is indicative of the nature of this
beast. Was China developing a bio-weapon to be used in the future and a wip got out.

How long does it take (any bio scientists around?) breakdown the components of a virus? In order to know what ists made of?

Is it possible for a virus to chameleon like and hide an undetectable component part?

Goodnight

One thing I'm keeping an eye on is political rallies. Once they start canceling them, then you know something is up.

Yep, they tested positive right after disembarking so they let them on the plane.

They were "supposedly" in isolation, though.

Meh so we are going thru the information blackout. I just can’t keep watching this, to busy IRL. Still believe something is fishy in this story, so many possibilities on how this plays, out like I said a few days back, those writing the history books are the only ones who will truly see how this plays out. I for one do not for one moment believe the Chinese, I suppose they stopped reporting infected numbers by now, or made some other condition of what infected really is etc.

If I had to guess I would assume the markets will eventually correct in the coming weeks, considering China, has been brought to its knees economically. If it does not, then we have bigger problems than a pandemic.



Yeah everyone expects them to be "more truthful" now the west is involved, when in reality the west has probably told them to STFU and start winding down the numbers.


We did just send them 10 million dollars in medical aid, so maybe that was part of the agreement.

In response to that abhorrent video, makes me wonder if the Reddit article that was posted about melting people in warehouses isn’t something to be considered.

M Crichton’s book dealt with nanoparticles escaping containment and turning all living matter to “grey goo”

Also reminds me of the leaked reddit pics of a doctor exclaiming everyone is the new hospital was dead...

We are f*+#d as a species it’s not even funny anymore

I’d rather it be a bioweapon honestly. Sh!t makes me just want to cry, or admire plants, or just read a book. Maybe just pray. Not the M Chricton one (Prey?)

I think you are confusing 'governments' with 'society' (culture).

The highest levels would lose control first, down the pyramid of control back to a more 'local' level. How far would it fall? Well, families would survive, and neighborhoods next (local community), then towns would rebuild … next counties, in some areas cities, then 'states' … then maybe national governments, etc..

IT wouldn't be the end of the world, but TPTB want to stay TPTB, and then can't do that if the world rebuilds without them, after some (any?) serious calamity, because they are really superfluous anyway.

Society will be fine. That is human nature. Governments? Maybe not so much.



Thanks for the clarification. It is society that makes us more human (emotions toward one another ) in nature.

Have you ever known a virus to do ALL OF THAT?
That gives me shivers.

Hey texasgirl:

When it comes to viruses, it is always difficult to predict what they can or cannot do. It is instructive, however, to see what viruses have done in the past, and use that information to guide our thinking. Therefore we can ask: has any human virus ever changed its mode of transmission?

The answer is no. We have been studying viruses for over 100 years, and we’ve never seen a human virus change the way it is transmitted.

The spike glycoprotein of the new coronavirus 2019-nCoV contains a furin-like cleavage site absent in CoV of the same clade


Highlights
- The genomic sequence of 2019-nCoV indicates that the virus clusters with betacoronaviruses of lineage b.
- 2019-nCoV S-protein sequence has a specific furin-like cleavage site absent in lineage b CoV including SARS-CoV sequences.
- The furin-like cleavage site in the S-protein of 2019-nCoV may have implications for the viral life cycle and pathogenicity.
- Campaigns to develop anti-2019-nCoV therapeutics should include the evaluation of furin inhibitors.


Full access to this paper is behind a pay wall at this time. The Alex Jones Show does have a 47 min interview with Dr. Francis Boyle on Brighton.com, SMOKING GUN: China Bought Weaponized Wuhan Virus From U.S.

As part of this study, the past work of Zhengli Shi from 2016 is looked at. She has held a leading role at the L4 Bio lab in Wuhan and also holds a leading role in China's response to the virus.

SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronavirus pose threat for human emergence


In this study, we examine the disease potential for SARS- like CoVs currently circulating in Chinese horseshoe bat populations. Utilizing the SARS-CoV infectious clone, we generated and characterized a chimeric virus expressing the spike of bat coronavirus SHC014 in a mouse adapted SARS-CoV backbone.

The results indicate that group 2b viruses encoding the SHC014 spike in a wild type backbone can efficiently utilize multiple ACE2 receptor orthologs, replicate efficiently in primary human airway cells, and achieve in vitro titers equivalent to epidemic strains of SARS-CoV. Additionally, in vivo experiments demonstrate replication of the chimeric virus in mouse lung with notable pathogenesis.

Evaluation of available SARS-based immune-therapeutic and prophylactic modalities revealed poor efficacy; both monoclonal antibody and vaccine approaches failed to neutralize and protect from CoVs utilizing the novel spike protein. Importantly, based on these findings, we synthetically rederived an infectious full length SHC014 recombinant virus and demonstrate robust viral replication both in vitro and in vivo. Together, the work highlights a continued risk of SARS-CoV reemergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations.

While public health measures silenced the SARS-CoV outbreak 2, recent metagenomics studies have identified sequences of closely related SARS-like viruses circulating in Chinese bat populations that may pose a future threat... Therefore, to examine emergence potential of circulating CoVs, we built a chimeric virus that encodes a novel, zoonotic spike protein in the context of a viable CoV backbone...

SHC014 and WIV1 sequences represent the closest relatives to the epidemic SARS-CoV strains (Fig. 1 a,b), but maintain important differences in the 14 residues that bind human ACE2,

Having established SHC014 spike as a potential threat, we next synthesized a full-length SHC014-CoV infectious clone based on the approach used for SARS-CoV (Fig. 3a) 15 . Replication in Vero cells revealed no deficit for SHC014-CoV relative to SARS-CoV (Fig. 3b); however, SHC014-CoV was significantly (p < 0.01) attenuated in primary human airway epithelial cultures at both 24 and 48 hours post infection (Fig. 3c).


It is a smoking gun paper. For another on the growing suspect list, Coronavirus Wuhan's Bio-lab and Epstein's Mad Scientists


Shaun Attwood has been keeping up on the Epstein story and shares one story currently getting a thrashing on Reddit, JE has been grooming Bio scientists with +9 million dollars. Supporting genetic editing of bacteria and viruses. There has been a lot of connections with JE and Academia.


This SOOO makes my head and heart hurt!

Again, my analogy of a bunch of monkeys (no offense intended) playing with a box of matches in a gasoline storage facility. THIS is how human life on this world will probably end. We will all be wallowing feebly in our excrement and drowning from our own snot. All the while with our governments saying it is nothing to worry about. IMHO.

The virus and the economy. Someone in the State dept. said something in terms of like this: so those reading this, yes, the economy will have to CHANGE. I see it here in this country and its only 2 weeks old, from tour operators to hotels to food industry to taxi drivers.

On the other hand, a White House official who interviewed the report on the phone said that the effects of the spread of the new coronavirus on the U.S. economy were "detailed analysis of how the supply network from China will be affected. He said, and he thought carefully about the possibility of depressing the growth of the US economy.

Who the fudge is running this sh# show! A sheet of plastic to separate the infected on a 747 flying pressurized tube with recirculating air systems for heat, AGAINST the CDC Instructions, are they that damn stupid? Between almost no straight Info from China, Facepalm screw ups after screw ups, Something is definitely not right about this whole thing. It’s like a bad Monty Python 2020 movie script.

It'll hit the economy. Husband is glad his company never jumped in with China. They favor local supply chains, so the Chinese pharma supply issue won't impact them like it will some.


 


Walmart is full-in on China as supplier bottler of their equate 'Brand' of otc meds & stuff

since the Feb 2nd onset of the China breakout...i have decided not to use/buy the China asprins/suppliments in the pharmacy aisles of Walmart in the 'equate' brand packages


do as you all decide, i won't go back until months After the outbreak crisis is over & explained

I don't think that the CCP can be classed as a Communistic society anymore. It morphed into one more resembling a Fascist state, when the numbers of billionaires in the top echelons became evident.

That is the single biggest reason I think there are two unrelated pathogens.

Your theory doesnt make sense if "they" know the mild cold version is out of the barn. But, if they think there is still a chance to contain the high CFR pathogen (which almost by definition, does not spread as quickly), they might be able to cover that up and keep various economies flowing.


I see what you're saying but there doesn't have to be a second virus with high CFR. It could just be the second wave. First round is slow enough, impossible to contain, low CFR. Second wave eventually starts, higher CFR, just as slow (if not slower) and sneaky, but not limited to the old.


If this isn't a weaponized pathogen, I think it soon will become one. With enhancements, of course. It already has many characteristics that I would imagine would be on a check list of properties wanted in a debilitating and destabilizing biological weapon.

One enhancement could be to make the pathogen immune to being stymied by a vaccine. Perhaps even make any such vaccine leveraged into making the pathogen even more deadly. Of course, a first exposure would act just like being administered a vaccine. Oh wait, maybe we are seeing that already.

IMHO.

Will someone PLEASE take that pack of matches away from the monkeys?

The dichotomy is sureal! President Trump is having a rally in Colorado, there are around 8000 people inside the event and many more outside. The US Government does not seem concerned. Very strange.

You know youre correct. I still call them communist though. Like calling the dems dems or the repubs repubs and knowing inside they have mutated into some weird alien thing. LOL!

It doesn tmatter anyway what we call it.. it was collapsing on itself for a long time now. This virus and the response to it.. might just be a culture and government changer. Be an amazing thing to witness I think!
