says 2 confirmed dead in Cali and 2 dead in Illinois. Can anyone speak to this? First I have heard of deaths in the US and I can't find anything about it elsewhere.

HAM Radio. I'll be at my Crystal Peak bunker if SHTF.

Last I heard, it was 2 confirmed cases in Cali and 2 confirmed in Illinois with one of those just having been confirmed today as the first human to human known in the US.

I'd say someone looked at the numbers and assumed the larger number of cases being investigated is the number of known infections while the smaller number is the number of deaths. The rumors ran from there.

Reminds me of how ATS should always be.

if I'm not mistaken, there's a girl who tested positive for this virus in Tempe.
A college student at ASU.
Authorities are likely testing everyone she's come in contact with since she returned from China recently

Nah if you go check their data on the google spreadsheet it only confirm cases not dead pretty sure it's a GUI error

No deaths in US. Their dashboard is alittle cramped but it reads 2 confirmed cases only.

Actually there are 6 known, but we're still within the incubation period for the first wave of infections to be just starting to pop up.

Something tells me that if it's ASU there is going to be lots of testing done.

56 patients in the Philippines are under observation for the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) infection, Health Department tells CNN Philippines. Time stamp January 31, 2020 0934H

Someone in Philippines posted that, said it was on TV but provided no screenshot.

Confirmation of transmission before symptoms from offices Chinese news account and it also says harder to prevent than SARS. Video with subtitles.

Twitter

Not many new videos on WeChat. What people are doing now is recording voice and sending that coz they can’t listen to all that audio and censor it. Some interesting stuff but no way to confirm.

Please look under the "Total Deaths" (213 of them.) And scroll down. They are listed as deaths for sure.

Does anybody else have a CB radio?

How else are we gonna communicate when the net is scrubbed and the wifi is shut down.

My CB is a close range hand held unit. Not long range capable.

Smoke signals.

Yes, ASU Tempe they were specific to say student didn’t live on campus. It’s a young lady.

Here's one of my thoughts hope I can explain it right.

The coronavirus helps whatever this "poison" is get into the system.
So as the CV works it's way through your body it lowers you immunity. Then the poison works it's way slowly through the body after the CV.

Now while the CV is taking hold in the system if you are already a sick or older person you develop symptoms. Anywhere from cold to flu like.

If your normally healthy maybe no symptoms from CV but the poison still is slowly working its way though.

Then the poison hits it's target or is able to silently overwhelm the immune system

From here I think if you were ill already you probably won't make it wthout hospital support and even then iffy.

If you were healthy before you can survive but better odds with early detection?

Who knows that's just one theory floating around in my head.

I can't get in to the map from your link, It takes me to a login.

Actually, there was another student who recently returned from China, but not Wuhan, who had symptoms, but they would not test. I'm down the street, so am keeping a pretty close eye. Haven't heard much else since this, though.

"I spoke w/ medical professional involved w/ Arizona’s first novel #coronavirus case & another patient transported to the same hospital w/ cv-symptoms. Source says both are ASU students w/ recent travel to China. But only one was tested for the virus. Summary of our convo below." -Kari Lake, local news

.@StateDept is increasing the #China Travel Advisory to Level 4 – Do Not Travel. This is due to the spread of the novel #coronavirus throughout China & the @WHO determination that the outbreak constitutes a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. go.usa.gov/xdDx7


Just stop all the damn flights already. Where are your big boy pants?

a reply to: azamber

Big thanks for that! Interesting that CDC said don’t test the one who’s not from Wuhan. Sounds like they know something we don’t.

Here is the link again. Can you copy/paste in the browser to see if it makes any difference? I had no problem getting there. Never saw a login. It went straight to the map.

Edit: Sorry, I guess I keep doing something wrong. Here is a link to the post I got the map link from. It is the 3rd link down on that post.
