#Wuhan explosion, heard 30 km away. Dozens of military helicopters flew by immediately. #coronavirus
Reports of explosion in Wuhan. Some place it near the location of the newly built hospital / quarantine facility. No verification yet of the actual site or damage. Lots of theories, some video of smoke and explosion sounds.

Potential dumb question but if the Chinese are saying that people can become reinfected with this virus and are susceptible the 2nd time round with dire consequence how can they also say that transfusions of recovered people's antibodies would help to cure people?
Surely they are no/nor enough antibodies to create a healing response?
Wait a minute, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Wuhan on total lock down? What are all those people doing frolicking outside? That makes no sense.

The CDC provides zero guidelines on a process to “clean” an n95 with any material for extended use. They do have extended use guidelines, but Lysol, CS, or any other product does not fit their list of extended use
I imagine cleaning products like Lysol would have terrible funes to inhale. And n95s are not oil proof so oil would likely clog and degrade the filter

What actual evidence was brought forth, then? Instead of alluding to it, provide it.
as a fellow programmer, i'm sure you know the old saying: RTFM. to be precise, hundreds of pages of part 1 and part 2 of this thread.
as for the virus being engineered, i'll post this once again:
and before screaming "not peer-reviewed", think twice. he has credentials, his logic is sound, and he's not the only one saying that while everything that had to happen for this virus to show up could happen naturally, it's extremely unlikely as far as probability goes. if his claims mean, as you say, f.ck all, then that certainly applies to everything you're saying as well.
When I first saw that video in the previous threads, my mind went to one thing before continuing with the video: credentials, so I decided to take it upon myself to look him up. He has an MBA and a PhD in Management. He is pre-med.
Peer-review refers to articles/studies being subjected to review by experts in the related field. Pre-med is not an expert, by any means... he is not even a medical student. I will give the video another view when I have time later today so I can make a careful point-by-point analysis of his claims and see what actual experts in the field have to say about his claims (pretty sure the nonsense related to his BLAST re the bat SARS was already debunked by somebody who was actually an expert in the field; i.e. virology, or in a related field such as immunology).
Paul Cottrell received his BS and MBA from Wayne State University, Ph.D. from Walden University and pre-medicial curriculum from Fordham University. He is currently at Harvard University for an ALM in Biology.
His research includes using chaos theory to model financial markets and economic emergence. His work on economic emergence contains new theoretical concepts of economic evolution and the creation of self organizational structures.
In addition, Dr. Paul Cottrell has published works from his Harvard University studies in genomics, neurobiology, neurosurgery, endocrinology and microbiota.

Good info, thanks for not piling on. So, looks like the Lysol recommendation is just as bad as mine for oregano oil?
CS is basically water, so no way it could cause any more of a problem as water.
Regardless, I've no plans for masks, I'll just self-treat and use sane precautions.
