Just wondering if it seems odd to anyone else that there are dead doctors, whistleblowers and journalist all over a virus??? I dont buy the narrative that this came from eating bat soup or having sex with monkeys in cages or whatever the hell else excuse they wanna make. I'm fully confident the United States has a cure. They could make a James Bond movie out of this thing.
 
Lots of speculation out there. Who knows. They simply have too many people living in tight quarters.

Living in a small town has its (plus)!
 
We can't cure the flu or the common cold, what makes you think there's a cure for this virus?
 
So, about 1000 people died in the world, in a month, from a scary disease, out of a 8,000,000,000 people, doesnt quite sound like a pandemic to me!
I will be on a large cruise ship in less then a month, I am not worried. In fact if I have to die, being on a cruise in the southern Caribbean sounds like a decent place!
 
Information is key.

Keep an eye on this. John Hopkins is reputable.

Must be viewed on a computer screen, too much data to see on a phone screen. It is updated about every 8 hours. You can scroll around the map.

Ps,.. they can no longer test the number of folks who have it. Many estimates are 500,000 in china infected.

It is similar to the flu with 2 differences.

1) 2% die. Normal flu is .1%

2) It has a much higher transmission factor.


2% die with proper medical care, such as a ventilator. If hospitals are overloaded expect that number to be higher.

China has never been an honest player ,. and sure as hell isn't being now.

No one knows how this will pan out,.. anyone who says they do,.. don't believe them.

Information is key.
 
^^^^^ China has never been an honest player, and sure as hell isn't one now. Neither has COMMUNIST RUSSIA. But we seem to be very cozy with both ………….. aren't we?????

How many "AMERICAN" companies are set up over there??? Karma.

So I should be twice as scared as getting the flu! If I were in China, I would be concerned. But I am not, so I am not. What are the odds I will die in the US of the Coronavirus? Not enough to be concerned about. I will probably have better odds of being struck by an airplane while I am sleeping in my bed tonight, then that I am going to die of the coronavirus.

Hell of a coincidence that it all started in Wuhan. Just so happens the Wuhan Institute of Virology is located there. I'm sure the Chinese wouldnt dare to dabble in biological weapons of mass destruction like the corona virus only to have it blow up in their face and then start executing doctors, journalist and social media types. Would be a shame if they got sabotaged or if this led to major unrest with the communist party within mainland China or put a major hurt on their sputtering economy. Could be added on-top of unrest in Hong Kong, African Swine Fever and the trade war. Things aren't looking so bright for the communist party. I'm not worried about any problems here.
 
Who knows if it was a leak by accident, or how it happened, but I would think if they wanted to create a biological weapon, they could come up with something a little more effective? But I will admit, it is way over my head, and unless people start dropping around me, I wont leave sleep over it.
 
I lived in China for 5 years. There is not doubt in my mind outbreaks like this will happen from time to time. They are extremely careless with hygiene of all kinds.

I also worked in microbiology labs with Chinese, and they are careless with hygiene in laboratory settings as well. The same lab of Chinese researchers had the only two contamination violations I encountered. One woman spilled radioactive material on her lab coat, and another threw radioactive liquid in the sink without rinsing it.

I have heard MANY other stories of carelessness among Chinese researchers in labs, plus various rumors of espionage.

Bottom line: was it bat soup or a man-made bio weapon? Neither would surprise me.

You just never know with China. There are rumors out there. Weird strain they say.
 
Now they mention closing the borders to the usa? Should have been done already in my opinion. Looks like the human form of CWD(Chinese wasting disease). No would be a great time to send all of our democrats to china for a free vacation.jmho
 
My cousin has been over there for a month. We thats not technically true. He just got there late this past week. He has been in Cambodia for quite some time because of the facility he works at in china being shut down over all of this. He is supposed to start work today but he thinks they will shut it down again.
 
jsasker007 - More division - dems to China. Putin loves ya, and all like you jsasker. Don't run your mouth like that & then say, "UNITED STATES of America." It's people like you who divide it, much to Putin's delight.
 
Well I guess you really told me. You are right---we should have the DEMS back in power because then we were all treated so fairly right? And you think we should have open boarders? When I get a chance i'll send you a pick of the Christmas card I got from putin. Hang in there bb things will get better and you are special just like your mama told you. Have a wonderful day. Atleast you're not trying to control what other people think or say huh?
 
My apologies to the mods here--wasn't my intention to turn this into adult daycare. Sorry.
 
This forum is great until politics gets involved.... then we turn on each other eventually. Hate the parties, don’t hate the people who vote for them. It’s just people making a choice on their values. Something all Americans can and should be proud of.

there are reports in China that they are rounding up people who spoke out against communism in the midst of the Coronavirus chaos... that’s the real story here. Be proud to live in America with each other. It could be a lot worse.
 
Let’s see how the stock market plays out with the Coronavirus. Might be able to get some discounted shares.
