Anyone wants to risk a bet on the eventual number of sick people? Dead people?

Is it gonna stick to the microchips?

It's a viral twofer, since the chips have computer viruses, too!

So, people have contracted Corona Virus because they did not get the vaccine?

I didn't get it either. Maybe pointing out their immune systems would be weakened by the Corona Virus and they may be more susceptible to diseases that have generally been eradicated via vaccines? That's my guess?

Using a virus outbreak to market health insurance. Who is winning here?
162   Heraclitusstudent   2020 Feb 6, 5:42pm  

Zhejiang has like 1000 cases reported, but 0 deaths. In fact most places where cases happened have 0 death. So the percent death is likely below 1%.
This suggests that Hubei has more than the reported number of cases. They just detect people when they are already seriously sick.
163   Tenpoundbass   2020 Feb 6, 5:54pm  

I bet the folks dying are the ones that keep getting vaccinated. And those that get the flu once or twice a year, don't even get it.

There are now approximately the same number of people outside of China as was reported inside of China on Jan 19th who've become Coronavirus homes. That's about 2.5 weeks.

Possible cases in Africa now.

Doesn't appear to be man made at all. Here is a link to the rushed paper that insinuated just that:

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.01.30.927871v1

It's still downloadable. At first those "HIV" inserts seem dubious. (Page-4, translated RNA-> protein sequence of SARS vs. coronavirus)

The authors focused on those inserts. All of the blue are also variation. It looks natural to me but don't take my word for it, read the comments from the other scientists who are laughing the paper out of publication.

Latest Study Suggests The New Coronavirus Is Also Spreading Via Feces. How bad will this spread in India and SF?

"Five British citizens contracted the virus in the French Alpine town of Contamines-Montjoie"

(You can't make up the name of this place. )

"Eleven Britons are thought to have been infected by a man who caught the virus in Singapore then went to France and the UK."

This thing seems to be spreading like wildfire.

I've heard it has spread much more than anyone knows through the 3rd world because there is no testing..

Looks like the world will be feeling China’s pain shortly.
I personally will be affected as my job depends on shipping from China.

I talked to a dad on the baseball team I coach last night, he said they are running out of inventory (auto parts) and their chinese factory has been shut down for two weeks.

Looks like the worst case scenario for economic disruption is in play.

Yet still another reason why we need to make everything in USA.

My company can't ship any hardware this month because our modems are built in China. We will probably miss our Q1 forecast due to this delay.

We are definitely re-thinking our supply chain plans.

We already have Typhus, Hepatitis, and Leprosy.

Just jumped from 45k cases to 60k.
183   mell   2020 Feb 12, 5:00pm  

The Chinamen owned up to the testing problem, but they simply labeled all pneumonias dxed via CT as CV cases to come closer to the real number of infections. Still this thing is overblown like nothing else. The majority of cases are so mild that we may indeed have more than we think and still the infection rates outside of Wuhan have been declining. While the supply chain problems are real, this is still a nothing-burger compared to the yearly influenza. I also suspect these "news" are used by short-sellers who have been desperately trying to bring the market down while getting their asses handed on a daily basis if you except the first few CV panic days. And that - while I do acknowledge there is quite some fluff in select stocks in this market - I don't support.

Publicly traded?

Short before the earnings call.

Just like cholera, the disease of the poor.
186   Heraclitusstudent   2020 Feb 12, 10:01pm  

"Fatalities in Hubei climbed by 242, while the number of infections jumped by 14,840, sending the total number of cases in China toward 60,000."

"The number of officially diagnosed coronavirus cases in the Chinese province of Hubei surged by 45% to nearly 50,000 after the Hubei provincial government began adding cases that were confirmed via imaging scans, alongside those confirmed with the previous method of nucleic acid testing kits.

The abrupt spike reversed the declining growth trend of previous days. The Hubei national health commission said it would now start including cases confirmed by “clinical diagnosis,” which refers to using CT imaging scans to diagnose patients."
