That is troubling if it is the UK where Western
sanitation practices and standards are observed.
I’m surprised that San Francisco and Los Angeles haven’t experienced a breakout.

No corona virus deaths in UK as of now.
A handful being treated in specialist hospital units and a similar number released after treatment.

Thanks...will do.

However, the trailer ignores the fact that they called doom and gloom on bird flu and swine flue and SARS....all duds. Next they conflate vaccination in general with a possible flu pandemic. Flu vaccine is a GUESS at what the likely fu virus will be for the coming year. Take a look at the side effect profile of these drugs and vaccines proposed for recent epidemics (extremely deadly by themselves)! Also, they tend to come much too late, after the outbreak disappears.

Adverse effects of remdesivir—the drug has not been approved for public use. I find at least one human clinical trial has been done on people “infected by the Ebola virus,” and another clinical trial is underway now. So far, I see no published list of adverse effects—probably because the drug is still in the test phase. Using this drug on “coronavirus patients” would certainly be experimental.
This is what I’m sitting here picturing: A person in Wuhan, who is having respiratory problems, owing to the unprecedented mixture of toxic pollutants in the air of the city, enters a clinic. He is given a chest CT Scan. He’s told he has a lung infection—pneumonia. Because a CT Scan is now absurdly sufficient for a diagnosis of “epidemic coronavirus,” he is given that label. NO test for the purported coronavirus is done. The person is shunted into a treatment room, and a doctor tells him his condition is quite serious, and he will be treated with a drug: chloroquine.
Go back and read the list of adverse effects again!

This video seems more political than scientific. A pig in lipstick is still a pig.
As to the Spanish Flu, it was the most un-flu like infection I have ever seen. All about it was different...

My point is to keep and open mind and follow the evidence. Do not shut down you thinking capacity in deference to authority. This may be the real deal, or it may be just another instance of the boy crying wolf.

Again, let me remind you of why Wuhan may be conflating and why death rates there will be higher than most anywhere else: Yale review which stated that the mixture of toxic elements in the air is unprecedented in human history.

'Three other cities listed as regularly suffering dangerous levels of four or five of the pollutants are Jining, also in Shandong, Wuhan in Hubei province, and Jiayuguan and Jinchang in Gansu. None of the seven appear in the lists of the ten most polluted Chinese cities published by the WHO or Chinese environment ministry. "

Skip the Docuseries "Pandemic" and watch Contagion instead ...

Did you see the film Parasite? It's not about a virus but it's the big Oscar winner this year.
It's relaxing ...

Is it just a coincidence that this Coronavirus originated in Wuhan, the same city in which the Wuhan National Biosafety Laboratory, the only high-security ("Level 4") virus research laboratory in China, is located?

It's probably pure coincidence, the 20 miles distance between the lab and the market.

Yep, tomorrow is going to be an ugly day in the stock market.
Traders and funds were buying calls until the mini flash crash Friday morning. Then you could see the buying of insurance finally..not a whole lot...though about double the normal volume.
This will be a break away gap down. We could limit down in the S&P as the German DAX could be down hard..
Warren Buffett has unrealized profits of 54 billion and shows that on his 2019 books....many more like him caught flat footed with no hedge....very nervous Friday and tomorrow for the funds.

Ron, again you are overreacting; the links I posted...two of them were already posted from a while back in this own very thread and are still, and the other one was from a scientist who recently died...RIP. They have zero to do with politics and answered your own question.

As a friend I suggest you relax and stop seeing negative where there's none, political bullshit where there's none.

You asked if there was a coincidence between the lab and the market @ proximity.
You had the best answer and you deleted it! Honestly sometimes you just mesmerized me.

Are you asking trick questions or are you genuine?

I appreciate you posting the map. That is very interesting, and it answers my question.

The Zerohedge links triggered a lot of fencing previously, and I did not want to risk having to deal with that again. The Sciencemag link had nothing overtly to do with Wuhan.
