Things like this and the fact that you can be asymptomatic and can still be contagious points to me that it is possibly man made.
That hasn’t been confirmed yet... Germany would be the closest case but there is no certainty she didn’t show symptoms prior.

have not ruled out a bio weapon on the loose either. That would make the draconian response to this and the lack of information more believable. I hope not but really don’t trust the chicoms
Think about our president.
Now think about whether he would hold back or not if there was ANY inclination this was man made.

It's not official word from the WHO, but during the presser today when the US announced the new regulations, a US doctor basically said its legitimate.

Correct

I just think China has been exposed as shitty at treating pneumonia tbh

This a shitty virus to be man made. Highly contagious but it seems unlikely that someone would want to make something like this and have such a low death rate.

Any other updates? Still estimating 3-14 days incubation? Anything on method of transport?

some of the suspected cases were actually pneumonia, then some of the deaths could be as well...
Not true
Any of the officially reported deaths should be considered the result of this coronavirus. Technically, they are probably dying of pneumonia, but the cause of the pneumonia is the virus in the confirmed deaths.

It doesn't have to be really deadly itself. If it packs hospitals full, drains supplies, and forces people to occupy beds for a lengthy period of time that prevents others from seeking care for other health issues.

Hong Kong researchers estimate that more than 75,000 people could be infected with coronavirus in Wuhan, China — far higher than reported numbers, according to a new study

A virus doesn't have to be man-made for this to happen.

If our own CDC is saying the tests they're running isn't identifying people with the virus I can only imagine what the Chinese success rates are with their tests with the pressure they're under.

The clearest timeline we have involves the German cases.
In these instances, it appears to be 3-6 days until the development of symptoms.
The drawback is that it also points strongly toward asymptomatic spread.

I'm pretty sure we're all running the same test

Yes.
However, according to thst timeline, all 5 cases are no longer showing symptoms. I'm tempted to say they just stopped that darker color once they got a positive test, but patient 4's line goes past the positive test.
