Corona Virus Updates

a reply to: Jonjonj

Incubation and viral shedding are not the same thing.

Incubation is how long it takes for you to show symptoms. You do not shed virus for all that time. For example, with ebola you don't typically start shedding viral particles until you spike your first fever. It's when you start shedding virus that your body fluids are infectious.

Think of it like zombie plagues. Most zombie plagues don't have their victims turn right away. The plague has to incubate first, and victim doesn't start shedding particles until he or she turns and starts trying to bite everyone.

So the key is at what point people get exposed and at what point they "turn" (shed virus). That's information I've not seen anywhere.

Hmmmm....why I am I starting to smell reverse 'psychology' here?
Could some other country that is in 'debt' to China have triggered/planted this virus so to destroy China's control through debt over them? This would also cause an economic crisis thus wiping out any country's debt to the Chinese thus gaining the 'upper hand'?

The only real way to contain it , is to close down all travel, since its incubation time is two weeks. It would appear that its to late to contain it. Consider living in a city like Sydney and wanting to go for a ride up to Brisbane, and finding some soldiers on the route out saying you are contained in Sydney until the epidemic is over. You would be very pissed off, this is happening in China at the moment, its like the government saying "Go back and die" Theirs going to be a lot of pissed off people in China.

Except Chinese society is much more acclimated to the authoritarian boot.

The problem with that theory is that it will lead to more "collateral damage" when the virus spreads to other nations or continents , probably even to the nation placing the virus.

The reward is not worth the risk.

Ahhhh...but I am starting to believe this version of the Coronavirus is contained in China and that is why the Chinese have such a lockdown going on....the other suspected Coronavirus IS NOT what is going on in China.
Hope that makes sense

Interesting, nonetheless.

How hard would it be to hide bodies?

I dont believe the number of infected, not by a long shot. I'm in the 10x camp - but this thing is super infectious so that could be low now too.

But the mortality rate, I think lots of people get the disease but only those with underlying health conditions die.

So, the fatality rate is about right - meaning the mortality rate is quite low - so this could just be a mass infection event.

hopefully.

Your first post didn't say predicted 100,000 cases. It said 1000 cases, and you said it's actually 100k. I was asking for a source for your claim it is actually 100k and not a prediction (which is what you should have said if that is what you meant).

Not too hard, I guess. Most of them would be in their homes, in bed trying to nurse through the ‘flu’, and then they died.
