Ahh, an unsubstantiated theory. I see. That’s ok then.

Here’s a substantiated one. ICU patients in Singapore

Ummm... my unsubstantiated theory is wrt to the 'two different critters' element, not the lack of serious cases.

ICU

Ok, so, 3 of the 6 in critical condition are from Wuhan (so, chinese natives), the others are old and/or with compromised immune systems (from Bangladesh), that had close contact with one of the ones from Wuhan.

So, I'll give you that much, you have presented with looks like a total of 3 cases of non native chinese, who apparently are in serious condition.

Now, that is out of how many non-native Chinese outside China?

a reply to: misfit312

It says: “Test results were not coming back as false positives or false negatives, but they were being read as inconclusive,”

but that's probably... inconclusive

Man I hope I can have a Chinese takeaway soon.

I like you

You're contradicting yourself.

Not really...

In a comment of yours just a few before this one, you said it had been "in the wild" since mid-December or early December. That would be about 2 and a half months. So, which is it? 2 and half months or 3 to 5 months?

I was rounding, because it is entirely likely that it was definitely before Dec 1st. After all, the Chinese numbers are fake and much worse, which means it definitely started before they claim (Dec 1st).

I think you're making your figures up

No, just got lazy...

and trying to spread misinformation.

Rotflmao! Thats a good one.

Isn't that your definition of what others are doing on here? So, how are you any better? All I'm doing is pointing out inconsistencies, not claiming it's a "nothing burger" or the "apocalypse."

Pointing out inconsistencies? Or picking nits.

Yes, ya got me, I was being lazy when I said 3-5 months. Easier to type '3' than '2 1/2'.

So sue me.

The Black Crowes?

What, so you could tell them it's all bull hockey like you're doing to Tennisdawg?

Nothing tennisdawg is saying is provable, or refutable. It is his word.

It wouldn't be hard for those in the know to prove or disprove reports of major troop/equipment movements. Kind of hard to hide that kind of thing.

Still in ICU mate. So you going to put up or shut up - as you suggested?

No. I’d make barb at your name. But....

Damn I have to be so base. A Murder. It’s called a murder

The disconnect in the numbers?
Wuhan didn’t know they had a new novel virus. They had people getting ill with symptoms similar to seasonal viruses or other infections. It took weeks for them to realize something else was going on
Weeks of people infecting others without a tidbit of knowledge

Exactly. Weeks of traveling all around the world, flights in/out daily from WuHan to USA, and other countries all over the world.

What makes you think that we should only start 'counting' from the time there was an official pronouncement from China?

a reply to: Oppenheimer67

Chinese takeaway..... just look for the EMS vans LOL

Now serving murders of crows throughout China

a reply to: butcherguy

Because if this does what we see in China, it will be needed, but so far it seems to be behaving differently in the rest of the world.

We need to know why.

Is it only a matter of time or are there other factors at play?

I pointed out one is very old, and the others over 50 and likely with compromised immune systems due to their country of origin (Bangladesh), but already admitted you were right that there are 3.

I then asked what percentage of that was of the total in the rest of the world.

I still maintain that this is such an extremely low number as to be statistically insignificant.

London confirms its first case of cononavirus

Hmmm that was a link from The Guardian, wtf?

WHO have just made some announcements...I watched it on Sky News......one thing....they say the figures in China are going down!!!

They are sending masks, test kits etc out to various countries.

Sorry I have no link as it was live and a link to it is not available yet.

I don't have a clue as to what your attempting to say there. (What, you're saying you would make fun of somebody's name?) I was born totally color blind. When I was around 5, my parents took me to a doctor and found this out.

Edit to add:
So I do tend see things as either black or white.


Edit to also add:
I think I understand you now. When I said "The Black Crowes," I was referring to an American rock and roll group.

a reply to: misfit312

Tbh, American health care 🤦🏽‍♂️, eu countries generally have a better system ( at least from my perspective of having used them, and not owing any bills for treatment!, tbh I’d be f@d with medical bills if I was in USA !)

I'm not saying this is the apocalypse, but this thread has me seriously thinking about history. Throughout history when apocalyptic events happened, how many people went around yelling and screaming at everyone saying that they are ignorant and overreacting?

How many people listened to these people and in turn caused pain and suffering upon their family for not listening or acting on a possible warning?

While it is not the apocalypse for most, the one's who are affected the most, is most certainly living a doomsday scenario.

a reply to: ketsuko

Ket, like many here you suspect there is the “x factor”
Or missing puzzle piece, or something we are missing.

May I ask what you may think that might be?

Clearly tuned to the disinfo/missing info...

Somehow again we seemed to be hung up on nobody dying outside of being Chinese or in China. There a chance MSM and TPTB might be keeping deaths outside a secret?

Why would this matter so much to humanity and the rubber-necking?
