Corona Virus Updates Part 3

a reply to: sirlancelot

Perhaps it’s time to show the videos of the body bags. Seriously. I have already had serious talks with my daughter and she is six. Slapped her hand once when she was messing with her mouth. She doesn’t do it now.

Dow is down -900 points... correction territory as we speak...its just crazy to see the market reaction...how the market has dropped in a week.

9-year-old who constantly scratches, rubs his nose. We told him last night because we were forced into finally talking to him about what *may* happen that if it comes to that, he's not going out of the house anywhere.

Yep, been telling that to my 3 boys for a couple of weeks now. They can go out, we own 5 acres, but no contact with anyone. My middle son balked and said he wants to see his friend up the road. Not going to happen.

We have also tried out a couple of meals that would be like what we will have if it comes to shelter in place. They seemed to like them, so that is good.

FYI, I tried to online purchase a 30lb bucket of dried eggs and milk substitute yesterday. Both places said they were out of stock, a run on them in the last couple of days. 3-6 weeks lead time. Sams Club still seems to have them, going to order from them today.

No updates on BNO News site since 6:40am EST. Maybe they're doing the updates less frequently to not frighten everyone. The US markets are taking another beating today...DJIA is down over 800 points.

Meanwhile, still 0.6% death rate on diamond princess... and going down fractions each days 3 orm3 cases are added each day....

While in Italy, their fatality rate for 528 cases is just under 3%. So.. which is it? It might be not 3%.. but it's probably not .6% either. Probably somewhere closer to the middle of that. I think the 2%-ish guesses are probably pretty close.

I was just reading an article on CBC that there was a woman in Osaka that tested positive for a second time. It's the first know recurrence in Japan. Does that mean she got sick, recovered and the got sick again?

Hmm he dodged the testing question, pretty fast.. onto precaution, I don’t like that answer..

Maybe ke knows the tests are not reliable.

I asked once before, I'll ask again...

If these tests are not reliable, and positives come up after 8 or 9 tests...

Who is to say that the 'positives' are not all or mostly false positives???

All those talks about HIV being natural. LOL.

We all know that the virus was bio engineered and tested on caught soldiers.

At least thats what we were told. That they tested the virus but no one got sick, nothing happened and the project was discarded, but it turns out the virus actually spread out of control without being intended by the people who were freed later on and that showed no symptoms.

My father seems to think this corona virus in fact is just a normal flu, but China purposely made a big deal out of it to crash the global markets. Obviously after everything passes china is gonna get back in track like it nothing happens and self-sustain, problem is no one else is gonna recover from the market crashes.

This Corona Virus is an expensive “nothing burger!”

What I mean by that, is there is nothing out of the ordinary about this flu. IT IS NOT UNCOMMON for the President of the United States of America, to hastily put together a press conference, to discuss and put together a team from the various agencies of the U.S. headed by the Vice President of the United States of America, for a flu that has sickened, over the last 30 days, 15 people, without any of the sick having died. Ignore BNONEWS saying 60, they are not an OFFICIAL U.S. Agency.

IT IS NORMAL for the President of the United States of America to ask congress for 2.5 BILLION dollars to combat a flu that has sickened 15 people, and to have the opposing party wanting to increase that amount to 8.5 BILLION dollars.
There is nothing to see here. Please resume your normal life, debating Sanders vs. Biden vs. Bloomberg and all of them vs. (impeached or acquitted) Trump.

In the Event of an Actual Emergency, the CDC would have told you. We are only talking about 15 people!!! Get over it folks. DO NOT pay attention to the rest of the world’s dealings with this flu. They are not Americans! The flu cannot cross the border into the U.S. without proper documentation. Illegally documented flu cells will be rounded up by the CDC with assistance by ICE and returned to the country of origin.

Some advice on potatoes. I have purchased many and if they start to sprout i plan to olant. However make sure you plant them in a checkered/random pattern so it doesn't look like a garden to outsiders. Most folks don't know how the potato plant looks like. Do not mow your lawn. Harvest at night so nobody sees you. Also supplement your diet with dandelions and purslane. If you make a garden that looks like a garden hungry neighbors will help themselves. Research survival garden / guerrila gardening.

I wonder what will happen if some preppers get with their entire fammilies and go into shelters for 2-3 years without knowing that aboveground nothing happened and everything got fixed 5 mintues after they locked themselves in.

I have pretty much zero confidence in this current administration to handle this crisis in the U.S. - it's going to be an interesting year.

I have a billion times more confidence in this administration than I would have in Barry's or anyone else before him.

It meant 2 things, one the virus was still in the lungs and 2 the virus was in the throat .
Here is her breakdown:
1. 2nd time lady infected
2. Jan. 29 test showed she was positive
3. Feb. 6 showed she was negative
4. Feb 19 sick again
5. Feb. 26 test showed she was positive

we are now understanding that the virus may gain strength and reappear in the lungs and in the throat where it may still remain alive

Hope that helps you to your question

On the one hand we’re getting pretty good doom porn from the CDC.

On the other hand we’re getting calm and reason from the administration.

I don’t know who is telling the truth and I don’t want to feed one side or reinforce the other.

The CDC is run mostly by a bunch of anti-Trump globalists... so there is that...

I wonder if they got too much attention and now maybe they have been warned to limit their posts 🤔 just a thought.

No need to wonder. There is a documentary about this from 1999.

Several Iranian government officials have coronavirus
From CNN’s Tamara Qiblawi, Ramin Mostaghim and Sara Mazloumsaki

Iran’s Vice President for Women and Family Affairs, Masoumeh Ebtekar, is the latest high-profile government official to test positive for novel coronavirus.

Here's a look at other high-profile cases:

Two members of parliament, including the chair of the parliamentary committee for national security, have also been infected by the virus.
One of the country’s top clerics, Hadi Khosroshahi, died on Thursday after he contracted the sickness.
Deputy Health Minister Iran Haririchi announced on social media Wednesday that he tested positive for COVID-19 — just 24 hours after he tried to downplay the threat of the virus in a press briefing.
Ebtekar, one of Iran’s most high-profile female politicians, was last seen at a cabinet meeting Wednesday with President Hassan Rouhani. During the meeting, Rouhani warned about COVID-19 turning into a “weapon at the hands of our enemies” for “propaganda” purposes.

Iran has emerged as a regional breeding ground for the pathogen, with the most confirmed cases — 245 cases including 26 deaths — in the region. The vast majority of coronavirus cases across the Middle East have been linked to Iran.
