Coronavirus: Entire UK cities could be placed on lockdown in bid to contain spread

"Matt Hancock yesterday refused to rule out putting British cities on lockdown, in an echo of how China looked to first contain the virus to its Wuhan epicentre."

and so it begins...

...and especially the response of the health care system.


And that is the elephant in the room people are choosing to ignore. Your health care system can only respond if not overwhelmed with cases. There are cities with a finite # of hospitals, and they are having to refuse care. When some cases require weeks of help to breath, that's a massive problem. People are overestimating the U.S. health system if they think it can manage ICU beds and required hospital care for a large # of pneumonia cases.

That's why containment is needed. Countries are having to build emergency hospitals to help with the outbreaks. The preventive measure is to help contain the spread. They mangled this badly during the Spanish Flu outbreak. It would be a sad thing if we as a country were to repeat that.

We are way beyond "containment"......we are currently in the mitigation phase of the pandemic.

Especially in the U.S which supposedly is the one the most " ready" nations to fight such a thing, this will shatter confidence if it takes off, people will start wondering what else they think they are the best at that they clearly are not.

Some CT speculation working from the premise coronavirus is a bioweapon released by a third party (globalist cabal, NWO, deep state etc.) as a tool to implement world government through the agenda of depopulation and war.

Also some updates ;-)

Evidence the two "sides" are starting to blame each other.


Senator Tom Cotton Repeats Fringe Theory of Coronavirus Origins

Scientists have dismissed suggestions that the Chinese government was behind the outbreak, but it’s the kind of tale that gains traction among those who see China as a threat.

www.nytimes.com...

Wasn't there some discussion of a US gov inquiry of COVID being a bioweapon? Can't find it again.


U.S. Officials Link COVID-19 Disinformation Campaign To Russian Proxy Accounts


www.rferl.org...


Russia Knows Just Who to Blame for the Coronavirus: America

Conspiracy theories are all over state media, following past patterns of disinformation.

foreignpolicy.com...


Russian news portal mk.ru, on January 27, 2020, with Igor Nikulin, a former member of the UN Commission on Biological and Chemical Weapons (1998-2003).

Those countries that consider themselves victims of bioterrorism should investigate all these cases and bring them up for international discussion. For example, to the UN Security Council. To raise the issue of the activities of American biolaboratories outside the United States. We have to do something. Because a lot of people are already suffering from it. And in general, it is necessary to strengthen the biosecurity of the country.

China accuses US of spreading fear and panic over coronavirus outbreak

www.cnbc.com...

And this one is particularly worrying, from a Chinese military linked news outlet.


The new crown comes from the United States. China is the hot pot. The United States is the source of poison!
www.xilu.com...

American officials could be convinced by the deep state the corona bioweapon escaped from the Wuhan lab, or was deliberately released by the CCP to quell rising civil discontent.

How could Chinese officials be convinced it was released by the US? Especially now it seems certain it will effect the US, seems counter intuitive.

We have seen possible increased virulence in China and Iran. Claims of higher covered up death tolls. The videos of people dropping on the streets. A rumour of a different strain of the virus in Iran.

Could be explained by a stealth pathogen. A virus sarscov2 with other bioengineered elements HIV etc. contained within, activated by frequencies from cell towers, radio, or even phased arrays(like haarp).

Then we would basically have two viruses as mentioned by TD. The second even more lethal one, when activated, going through the four stage severe attack, causing the symptoms we have seen in China and Iran, but have yet to see elsewhere.


It's that latter idea that, in fact, one finds clearly outlined in the US Air Force document, on page 15 in the actual document, and page 26 if you're searching in the pdf file:

Stealth Viruses: The basic concept of this potential bioweapon is to “produce a tightly regulated, cryptic viral infection that can enter and spread in human cells using vectors” (similar to the gene therapy) and then stay dormant for a period of time until triggered by an internal or external signal. The signal then could stimulate the virus to cause severe damage to the system. Stealth viruses could also be tailored to secretly infect a targeted population for an extended period using the threat of activation to blackmail the target.

State of the Bioweapon: Stealth viruses just like the gene therapy, require a vector to be inserted in the body and lay dormant until a trigger mechanism is activated either internally or externally. Imagine having a cancer causing virus enter a human cell and lay dormant until an external signal triggers the disease. When the signal gets activated the cells become abnormal and could rapidly generate abnormal cell growth leading to a tumor and ultimately, death. Now, apply this concept to a population where an HIV virus gets disseminated within a target population. At a specific time chosen by the perpetrator, the signal would be triggered to harm an entire population all at once. Although this bioweapon is futuristic it is not improbable and deserves to be examined. (italicized emphasis added)

gizadeathstar.com...

The declassified document is from 2010, it's certainly feasable a stealth pathogen could have been developed since then.

Keep eyes on the Middle East and the South China Sea.

Update Bogotá, Colombia. 1:22 am . 02/03/2020

From what I've heard, people have started buying more face masks. Problem is, most people are ignorant and go for the surgical masks (that are almost useless for coronavirus protection) People aren't stocking up. Realistically speaking, most people cannot afford to stock up anyway.
Mainstream media says that there's nothing to worry about. "People should see how the situation is already under control in China" even our supposed epidemologists are telling the media that this is just like a common cold. If someone gets it, he should remain at home and treat it as he treats the ordinary cold. Also, media is telling people to not buy masks, nor to cause panic. There could even be penalties for such behavior!
The reality is that Colombia is heavily in debt to China. A company from there is supposed to start building a new subway over here later this year. Also, our supposed right wing president went last year to China, and left a wreath to a Communist monument over there. Just because he wanted to sell avocados to that country lol.


Concerning other countries:

Ecuador: Our neighbor to the south. Remember there was one case yesterday? now there's six.

Prague, Czech Republic: The city where I used to live. There are now 3 people with coronavirus there (this is Czech Republic) these are also the first cases to appear in Central Europe (Vysehrad Group)


CONCERNING RUSSIA: PLEASE TAKE THIS WITH AN ENORMOUS GRAIN OF SALT!
My friend told me about an audio message circulating on Instagram. Here I paste the translated text via google:

"In Moscow, they began to disseminate information that 20,000 people with coronavirus were in the city))) they create panic, they say that the government does not tell us anything, but in fact there are no places in hospitals and we need to buy medical masks, medicines and products)) )) but they don’t tell people because at the end of April in Russia amendments to the country's constitution will be adopted) I laughed))
 
I have a friend, he studied at a medical university, his many acquaintances work as doctors in many hospitals, clinics and private clinics in Moscow) he told him very laughed) he says that if that, then the doctors are informed first and he would know) but it’s very funny) "


So yeah, there's that audio circulating over there but most people think it's fake... I hope it is!


That's all for now.

Check this out...
ABC news

South Australian health authorities will have expanded powers to detain and quarantine people who may have been exposed to the coronavirus under new laws being proposed by the State Government.

Key points:

Under the proposed laws the chief public health officer would have the power to have a person detained

Asia markets and US futures are up. Maybe some good news we plebs either haven't seen or haven't listened to whilst circumnavigating our rooms crying about the sky's sudden adherence to gravity.


I was wondering the same..

There's no public information to make the markets have a sharp rebound.
Infact, the numbers out of China/Asia today were bad - worse than expected

edition.cnn.com...


Manufacturing activity in the country fell to record lows last month, according to a closely watched private survey. The media group Caixin said Monday that China's manufacturing purchasing managers index sank to 40.3 in February, down from January's 51.1 and the lowest reading since the survey began in 2004. It was also well below the 45.7 that analysts polled by Reuters expected.
The Caixin survey came days after the Chinese government reported that its official manufacturing PMI plunged in February to an all-time low of 35.7, down from January's reading of 50.
The official non-manufacturing PMI survey, which measures the services sector, skidded to 29.6 in February from 54.1 in January. Caixin's services survey will release later this week.


but all the stocks rebounded..even oil

Its suggested they're already pricing in stimulus/recovery packages from federal reserves..

The other thing about this person to person transfer bizzo is, if it actually takes off then I reckon it'd be a fair call to say that whatever came in from Iran is not the same thing that came in from China in early January.

They'll lock down Seattle followed by Portland once cases start spiking here..

Why do you think Nike is closing down and deep cleaning all of their facilities in Portland?..




PLEASE STOP THE nonsense about lockdowns and quarantines... its not going to happen this early.

lets please think rationally......


Ah, but that is the problem, isn't it? A lockdown and quarantine is not going to be of any use whatsoever UNLESS it is early on.

It's tough to be too early, but very VERY easy to be too late.

Every confirmed case of this coronavirus is proving to be the tip of yet another large iceberg. By the time you know it is here, it has already been here for 2 weeks.

IMHO.

it's not silly at all to consider - it's already a reality in some parts of the world - e.g. in Italy.
If someone had told me before this situation that some parts of Italy would be on a forced lockdown with a 3 month prison sentence for non compliance, I would have NOT believed it! But it is happening.
I think it's easier to lock down smaller zones, much harder for bigger cities with multiple roads in and out.
I believe the tweet could be real, but I would expect some build up or hints to it in the mentioned places e.g. San Fran which is huge. Unless the army could just roll up super quick and start blockades...
A question to military people here - is that possible? Would the military have to give notice for these types of things for the public to prepare or can it be done without warning? I have no idea about that.

a reply to: pasiphae



If a quarantine is optional for those involved, what would be the point?

So if it is going to be mandatory, how wise of an idea would it be to give advance warning to those people who are going to be quarantined?

IMHO.

Good morning,
update from the BeNeLux:
We have 20 confirmed in total. Netherlands :10, Belgium: 8: Luxembourg: 1

Morning news articles over here consist of the gov telling people what to do and what not to do, while virologists are openly arguing about the best approach. It seems that they are finding new cases by NOT following the WHO guidelines and a lot of doctors are urging the gov to start testing about everyone who has flu symptoms. Hospitals are booked full for virus testing.

In Belgium, a small country with 11 mil citizens, which is the same as the city of Wuhan, they are doing press conference after press conference, still acting like they can handle it.
Yesterday they said " we have 50 quarantine rooms ready".... 50? seriously? lol
