  • Re: nCoV 2019-2020 Outbreak

    I mean, you can mock that but the flu still is a bigger concern

    We shouldn't be taking the coronavirus lightly though.

      Especially since the mortality rate among flu victims is about 2%

        It's not mocking. Yes, the flu kills more people at this point. That doesn't address the problem. Coronavirus is new. We have no vaccine. We don't know how contagious it is. We don't know what the kill rate is. See the difference?

        We shouldn't be taking it lightly?

        Well the President of the United States is sure taking it lightly. He gutted all that Obama did during and after Ebola that would have been there to respond and contain new viral threats such as these. He did it with impunity. His press conference was a blatant attempt to bolster the stock market.

        There are two things you do NOT CUT in government right now. Cyber security and the CDC. You don't do it. Period. He slashed them both.

          Has the CDC said anything about a vaccine?

            Yes. It will take over a year to develop one. I'm sure the budget cuts are really helping them out.

                Clearly trumps admin isn’t going to take this seriously.

                To see how adults act, watch how Minnesota, Washington, Mass, CA handle it who have actual scientists with brains employed in public health.

                  It’s more like 2 years after proper testing

                      Aren't flu vaccines created by private entities? You know, Big Pharma, and corporations in general, the two primary targets on your hit list?
                      That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                        By the way. Anyone catch how Pence was put in charge? After what he did in Indiana you could not have picked a worse person.

                          Heard on beebs that attempts will be made to rush testing () but still perhaps next Feb-April at earliest.

                            Yes, and the one working on this already said they’ll try to keep it affordable but no guarantees.

                              These have been around how long now?

                              Huge difference (huuuuuuge)

                                A better question- should they be? Should we rely on companies who must make a profit to save the lives of a large chunk of the world population?

                                Why is it that we have to make everything we do profitable?

                                Pay the researchers, for sure. But once it gets beyond that, it should be open to the public for security reasons.
