What happens in Italy is terrifying.
827 died in less than 3 weeks.
364 died in the last 2 days.
This is starting to look like a real nightmare.
You can guess easily that the Chinese lied to the world with their 3000 deaths.

Very very tough for the Italians.

Maybe slightly off topic, but why is nobody talking about the reasons this all happened and stopping China from continuing their disgusting eating and filthy market place lifestyle? This is now at least the 4th time they have spread Animal based diseases but luckily never to this degree. This should never happen again.
Another resolution I have made is that I will now go completely out of my way to never support an economy of people that cause these issues for the rest of the world. I will spend more money, or just do without items if they are only made in China.

As a caution - how one passenger infected 9 others:
red - carrier
orange - infected
pink - he got infected, although he got in half an hour after the carrier got out (!)
Yes, this indicates there was either an aerosol particle containing a virion flowing around being recirculated in the air in the bus or picked it up from touching a surface.

one, it's not going to solve the problem today by finger pointing but their day of reckoning will come when this blows over. The CCP yields a lot of soft power around the globe esp in media, they even had the WHO eating out of their hand a day ago proclaiming what a GREAT job China has done. pathetic.

I fully understand what you are saying, and it is more than just Finger Pointing, it is reality they needs to be dealt with, not just ignored as it has been up to now in the mainstream media. China also has lied about it all from the beginning and most likely still are today.
It is unfortunate that the US economy is so dependent on China because many people will lose their jobs because they work at stores that sell 90% Cheap Chinese Junk.

I guess you haven't traveled to many lesser developed countries around the world. Wet Markets which are thought to be the breading ground for current and past outbreaks aren't unique to China. They can be found around most of Asia. I have seen how the poor eat in Brazil, Mexico. Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, China South Africa and India. What is disgusting in our eyes is often the norm for these and many others around the world. In many nations even those who are employed cannot afford to have kitchens installed where they "live" so they get their daily meals from street vendors and I am not talking of Taco Trucks or Hot Dog stands. The sharing off plates and eating utensils is common.
You indicate that we haven't seen anything to this degree. I am in no way understating the potential for the current outbreak to hit numbers not seen since 1918-20 but the HIN1 (Swine Flu) virus of 2008-9 saw over 60 million cases in the US with over 12,000 deaths, Worldwide there were somewhere between 152,00 and 500,000 deaths.
You have every right to avoid purchasing products from China and I don't want to sidetrack this thread to debate whether we should purchase products from countries that create these world wide health issue. I just think it is amusing that we buy and hold stocks in companies that source these products to low cost area while rewarding their executives with nice bonuses for moving our manufacturing capacity overseas.

Just to add to what Jim said: MERS originated in Egypt from camels. The Spanish Flu did not originate in China, either.

Dr. Marty Makary director from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health states that Chloroquine is showing promising results in the treatment of Covid 19 in South Korea. In the video below you'll see this illustrated. The doctor in the video is not Dr. Makary.
Dust off your micro biology textbook and follow along. If you sold your text book bear with the technical description from 1:30-6:00 to hear the promising outlook for Chloroquine. No it is not double blind tested here in the US but we don't have time for that. We have to observe what is being used empirically and works in other countries.

Thanks for posting this! I will be calling in a prescription of Chloroquine tomorrow to keep handy in case I come down with this virus.

Very cool. With my molecular biology background, I understood all of this...this looks to be quite effective.
Going to forward to my doctor.
