Corona Virus Updates

Eep, that's not good.

Last night on the radio they were interviewing a woman from China who said she was hearing from people in rural areas outside of wuhan who were preventing outsiders from entering their villages.They were making road blocks and not allowing people into their villages..
I know its not as horrific(and hope it won't get as bad),but it reminded me of a book I read,where small villages in England during the black death did the same thing-barricading their villages so people could not spread the plague.

Now I just read about these villagers who are literally bricking up the streets to prevent people from getting into their villages-

Sky News found six villages in Hebei - where dozens of cases have been confirmed – taking drastic measures to lock down into their own hands.
Residents in Xikangzhuang, close to the border of Shanxi province, have built entire walls out of brick, reportedly to 'stop outsiders coming to our village'.
Dongyinzhuang citizens have planned to create their own guardhouse – a portable building that has been winched into place by worried residents who have yet to hear from Government officials about what to do.

Thats a lot of action considering we are only being told 106 people have died.
I wouldn't like to guess what people will be doing if they are told 1000s have died.

No, it broke the 200-day moving average, that's why it pumped.

Simple estimated prediction.

Say ~50% increase compounded each day.

I don't think anyone knows the true case number in Wuhan. Too much chaos.

There are videos on WeChat and Twitter confirming that some villages are self isolating with barriers and roadblocks.

The Bitcoin phenomenon is somewhat artificial, and a byproduct of trading.

BTC are electronic, and are the electronic equivalent of the current evacuation, per se, from China. Maybe you can't smuggle out a gold bar, but BTC on a thumb drive - yes, you can do that!

So, people are buying BTC, leaving China and, taking their BTC with them, as possible; thus, bidding up the price.

It looks really bad with the reports coming out, incubation periods are starting to end and more people are going down. It’s getting to the point where even though it appears to have a lower mortality rate, we’re seeing significant morbidity rates.

Supportive care for large amounts of patients could even tank the system worse than a fast mover with high mortality like we see with hemorrhagic fevers. They’re eventually going to need to use the military for all kinds of issues as people get desperate in that environment.

Thanks for putting this table up cellty, it is spooky to watch how close it has been each day. So here we are at 28/01/20 ...with the death toll ahead of prediction, around 131 dead at the moment.bnonews.com..." target="_blank" class="postlink">bnonews.com... ses/ over the 105 predicted on this vector from 6 days ago... Looks like it could hit the million mark next month as predicted. We are going to know one way or the other very soon. This one feels real. I hope I am wrong.

Today's update/comparison with prediction chart that states 1.1 million dead by 2/21/20 is still on track:

For the date of 1/27/20 we have 4,573 confirmed cases (Predicted 3,460) 106 dead (Predicted 71).

Live tracking the care package of death stupidly being flown by the US state department into Anchorage from Wuhan for refueling.
www.flightradar24.com...

Local news had an article on this this afternoon, admitting the passengers would be offboarded and medically re-screened here in Anchorage prior to taking off again for mainland US and, shocker of shockers, the ADN site picked today to "make repairs to their comment software" so comments are down until late tomorrow night. There are no coincidences... the powers that be know they're bending this one over and having their way with it and they know the public is vehemently opposed to this horsecrap, so just silence the newspaper comments section to avoid giving people a platform from which to call out the decision makers' nonsense from. Problem solved.

I know exactly what bitcoin is, I just don't believe that it'll hold any value whatsoever in an event like this. Sorry.

Do you know who is on board.... are these the evacuated Americans/diplomats?
