Chinese "Devil Virus" - anyone worried?

Anything is possible ... but as stated it is "highly highly unlikely", what is there in that statement that you can't comprehend you thick twat ? That isn't a zero value. Do you need a conjectural percentage so you can get you can get your brain around it and actually put a value on the meaning of 'unlikely' ?

And no they didn't make any suggestions that it was man-made. Only it's origin.

Though on the subject of being man-made:

.... disease ecologist Peter Daszak of the EcoHealth Alliance, dismissed Ebright’s conjecture. “Every time there’s an emerging disease, a new virus, the same story comes out: This is a spillover or the release of an agent or a bioengineered virus,” Daszak says. “It’s just a shame. It seems humans can’t resist controversy and these myths, yet it’s staring us right in the face. There’s this incredible diversity of viruses in wildlife and we’ve just scratched the surface. Within that diversity, there will be some that can infect people and within that group will be some that cause illness.”

No doubt then that it is was deliberately released in the wet market. Or maybe not someone could have just dropped a lab-made vial of this new virus into someone's soup by accident.

Of the 585 samples tested, 33 were positive for 2019-nCoV and all were in the huge market’s western portion, which is where wildlife were sold. “The positive tests from the wet market are hugely important,” says Edward Holmes, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Sydney who collaborated with the first group to publicly release a 2019-nCoV sequence. “Such a high rate of positive tests would strongly imply that animals in the market played a key role in the emergence of the virus.”

Like I said right at the start of the thread: stop eating bats, monkeys, snakes and civet cats

James Weiler is a fucking anti-vaxxer headcase and almost certainly insane

Headcase? He's got a Phd in molecular biology or something along those lines. I'll presume your considerably more qualified than him then on those subjects.

He's a well qualified headcase then.

Let's not forget that Mors is one of the leading tin-foil hat retards on this Forum. Wasn't he banging on about that plane that was obviously shot down by Iran being some kind of false-flag Mossad operation or some shit?

That was him. I wonder what he thinks about Andrew Wakefield? or Dr Andrew Wakefield, as he probably still calls him.

I'm clinging to this conspiracy theory no matter what.

Or else I'll have to go down the rabbit hole that is Jeffrey Epstein's posthumous bank transfers as evidence that he's still alive.

Rosco, that means you're on Mors' team! Or is HE on yours?
 
Work in an office with about 300 staff.

There's a chick who went to Hong Kong and Japan for 3 weeks.

The last leg of her holiday was China - and you'd think any sane person would just cancel that and bite the bullet on the monetary loss.

But no.

She spent last week in Shanghai full well knowing with whats been happening in China.

Landed back in Australia on Monday morning and she's now being held in 2 week quarantine by the government.

But but but they didn't do the same with the 100 US fire fighters who went there recently ? 26 million infected in the USA this season with 25,000 deaths ? No quarantine ? Racists !
 
People are fucking idiots.

The swimming class that the little ones go to had half the amount of kids in this week. The staff said it's been like that all week cos parents think they're more likely to "catch the coronavirus" at a swimming pool than at school, for reasons no rational person seems to understand.

You've also got wirral residents wearing masks when they go shopping. These cunts get to fucking vote. Scary thought.
 
Meanwhile my brother is in Canada on a business trip, had a few hours free, so decided to book himself onto a 'walking tour' of Chinatown and a Chinese market, and then texted us:

"It's dead weird, I'm the ONLY person on this tour, it's just me and the Chinese lad wandering around"

There was no joke or 'lol' attached. He was very bemused. I'm not sure he's heard of the coronavirus, to be honest

You're right. Most people don't act rationally the moment there is anything they don't understand or bother to educate themselves on. However I actually agree with the wearing of masks if you are carrying a flu virus (after having been to Japan recently, pre-this virus outbreak) and seen how they wear masks to protect others - not themselves (likely this has changed now of course). I believe I read they have a lower flu transmission rate because of this.

However wearing a mask in the UK to protect against 2019-nCoL now (or keeping children out of pools) is .. fucking nuts.
 
What the hell happened to the doctor? Supposedly had coronovirus in late December and then suddenly died? Yet apparently it only kills the elderly, or those with pre-existing conditions which weaken the immune system?

Conspiracy theorists are going to go into meltdown..

Latest situation in China (from John Hopkins CSSE) below. Currently running at bang on 2.0 fatality rate. Of course since most mild effects of this virus are never reported UK labs have estimated the number of infected is at least x10 higher. So even if some deaths are being mislabelled / unreported the rate is very likely far lower than 2.0.

Where are you based?
 
Hahaha ! I went around taking photos 😀

Since it was pretty quiet out so an American friend and I had a great time shooting anything and everything. Including lots of illegal firework displays going off 😗
Followed by coffee at Costa's and, since most restaurants were closed (it was the CNY after all), we had to suffer MacDonald's - my first time in one of those for years 😳

😱 That's on lockdown isn't it?

Hope the old lady is fine..
She had a cold which frightened her but of course - it was just a cold and she was happy we were there (to catch her cold) 🙄

Yeah I've a few friends there (American & British) and they are having fun photographing / videoing all the officials ! Lockdown is a bit strong but they don't want too many people on the streets so one person per household is permitted to go out and buy food etc.

I went to Walmart's before I came back to Shanghai - tons of fruit, veg etc. so food not an issue. Temperature checks everywhere of course - before going into Walmart's and at both Wenzhou and Shanghai high speed train stations (ultra hi-tech gear they use, no need to stop just walk through and it shows the whole body temperature like The Predator, not just a number on a screen).

So, I'm guessing there will be no Asain Tour pre-season then 😉

Two things...

1) Can't understand why they h chosen a hospital in the Wirral to house, or should I say quarantine people coming back from Wuhan... Would make more sense if they used an Air base in the UK. That way they could fly directly in and It would be relatively isolated should a accident occur, let chance of it speading

2) I have never been inoculated with the MMR vaccine and have bben in close contact with people would had measles, and mumps on a few occassions, never effected me... don,t even think Ebola would effect me. Yet a Cold or Flu... If someone sneezes in China then i have it the next day

But worried... No
