Corona Virus Updates Part 3

I posted this awhile back... we've been at "Stage 5" for some time (and probably stage 6 more recently but maybe not according to "official" reports):

For those wondering, waiting for ultrasound of gall bladder, liver & kidneys. My partner is comfortable and receiving good treatment. Will report more later.

I saw you post this earlier and my thoughts were that we're at 6 already. I think they are just kind of trying to get their "ducks in a row" so to speak before they come out and say that to the public because they need a PLAN to tell us before they spring that on us all. On another note... hope all goes well with you and your family. Hoping to hear good news later.

Edit to add... wow... I don't type that slow but multiple comments happened before I posted.

@DontTreadOnMe ok thanks for the quote link info i am new here





MOD NOTE

Yeah, she is the director over in the respiratory infectious disease stuff. Good people. I imagine they are given what can be said and what cant.. plus the CDC is having issues with information flow.

"Feb 21 (Reuters) - A 20-year-old Chinese woman from Wuhan, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak, traveled 400 miles (675 km) north to Anyang where she infected five relatives, without ever showing signs of infection, Chinese scientists reported on Friday."

So much for containment.

I'm not finding any reports that support your assumption.

Just reread the past 3 threads. Imho you are making yourself look a fool. (or a troll)

The q is:
Are the other provinces lagging behind or is there another difference? For example the suggested vaccination or the pesticides some think may have been used.

If the other provinces have no difference, but only lag behind, it would be an argument for it hitting hard in the rest of the world.

Uh I think you are responding to the wrong person lmao

My only concern. If this is the MILD strain. Similar to how the Spanish flu, began. It’s still spreading and the numbers being reported I think Is just a form of panic control..

This is why I don’t want to keep watching this..

Ive yelled it from the rooftops and Ketsuko has raised the alarm on this one... its the second wave we fear most.

Which as I have inferred before, leads me to believe that China is going through their second wave right now. Either by prior infection, or via a vaccine that was administered to them this past December or slightly before.

IMHO.

I've been reading somewhere that HIV NRTIs treatments seem to help fight the virus. I wonder if PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) has been tried in people without the infection. Though, I suppose to test this would require someone become a test subject.

I’ve been following the story of a UK couple from the diamond princess cruise ship.

Latest was they had contracted the virus and were being taken to hospital. Both looked fine and healthy except a cough.

Upon leaving the ship they went to a hospital, scans were given and they now both have a cold a flu and covid19 and pneumonia.

They’ve been moved out of nowhere from a good hospital with good quality care, to a hospital with no treatment and not in good standards.

The whole thing seems strange from showing to symptoms to this In a few days.

Search David Abel on YouTube to see the videos from his son detailing the whole situation

Lester Holt just had 5 minutes on the nightly news about it.

That's interesting, because on Thursday night, he had around a minute and it was very superficial. Two short stories: One about how it was losing steam in China and another about the cruise ship patients returning to America and there now being, what 35 (?) cases now in America. It was some number like that I remember because it was different than the 15 cases that had been reported up to that day. And these stories were pushed back to the second half of the show. The dramatic footage they ran earlier in the broadcast (opening story I think) of an airplane landing without landing gear in Florida was more crucial information to the world on the world news, I suppose.

What I'd like to know is WHEN she left. Certainly not any time recently right? They are all on lockdown. And yeah "containment" was never going to happen.

If anyone here gets tested positive with this current virus, can you document the whole process/information/procedures here or in a separate thread? Of course with permission with ATS and with verifying documents That you are in fact infected. This not only can inform us all but maybe save a life or two by learning about it in real-life what to do/not to do Documentation. I’ll do the same if I’m first with it here.

Just in: 4 people in Iran now have died of the corona virus. Not sure why 4 have died so suddenly though.

a reply to: TrulyColorBlind

It was followed by a segment on a mother whose child had died from the flu. Disconcerting indeed.

Also, for some reason, I think bno has been compromised.

Its in our back yard now (what I mean by that) is that we now have 2 infected locally and because we travel by train, well, the virus is airborne. The virus is easily spread by people breathing next to each other.

I will volunteer to do my best. I know many more here on ATS will do the same, and whomever has the (unfortunate) distinction to be tested positive first here on ATS has the honor / responsibility of leading this future thread.

I work in a hospital lab, and interface with phlebotomists drawing blood, and more … and have kind of just accepted the fact I could be infected early, and will self quarantine, or just stay at the hospital if they let me to continue working in a no-exposure environment. Unless they cut my internet or electricity, I should be able to keep posting. Anyone else here on ATS would probably do the same.

We have pretty much done our shopping , but now the wife wants to go out. I think I might let the air out of the tires of the car this morning. It is really sad to see Americans not taking this virus serious. We are now hearing the word "pandemic" more on the TV news updates here. That is some serious take, folks.

Here's the story quote:

According to the report by Dr. Meiyun Wang of the People’s Hospital of Zhengzhou University and colleagues, the woman traveled from Wuhan to Anyang on Jan. 10 and visited several relatives. When they started getting sick, doctors isolated the woman and tested her for coronavirus. Initially, the young woman tested negative for the virus, but a follow-up test was positive.

All five of her relatives developed COVID-19 pneumonia, but as of Feb. 11, the young woman still had not developed any symptoms, her chest CT remained normal and she had no fever, stomach or respiratory symptoms, such as cough or sore throat.

Scientists in the study said if the findings are replicated, “the prevention of COVID-19 infection could prove challenging.”

Key questions now, Schaffner said, are how often does this kind of transmission occur and when during the asymptomatic period does a person test positive for the virus.

Reuters

Meanwhile sounds like South Korea is blowing up with new cases... 142 new cases today; 346 total and 2 deaths.

ETA: This includes:
- 92 new cases linked to hospital
- 38 new cases linked to church
- 12 new cases unknown
