Novel #coronavirus can be transmitted by touch, China’s medical authority reiterated on Tuesday. The incubation period of novel #coronavirus is usually 3-7 days. Young children and infants could also be infected.

So more likely to die than get cured?

Buddy of mine was in China but is in Taiwan now. He told a coworker of ours that the deaths are around 1,000.

Unless he counted the bodies he doesn’t know

Out of 2,714 cases in Hubei province, only 47 have been cured so far


From what I’ve read, a person must test virus free for 14 days before they are considered “cured.”

No. It's just quicker to die than be treated and released.

It's pneumonia; it's not like there is a set day and if you pass that, you're fine and ready to go.

For example, I think the people in America who are being tested have to have 2 separate negative tests spread 1 or 2 days apart to be deemed "negative."

Interesting thing I read today is that the lack of symptomatic children may suggest childhood vaccines are conferring secondary immunity.



Mfw the irony hits those wackadoo anti-vaxers that their efforts to keep their kids from autism made them now susceptible to this virus.

The first US case flew into Seattle on Jan 15th. He reported to officials a few days later. If the incubation period is as long as 14 days, hopefully Seattle will be in the clear by this Saturday.

If you don't think the Chinese government isn't giving the Ughyr treatment to many of this sick people you are crazy. I'm sure the cremations are on full speed because it is the easiest way to help contain the virus.

So 30 seconds of plugging numbers into an exponential regression calculator predicted 4,555 cases by today. I'll be damned.

Fwiw, that same formula would predict around 6,800 cases by tomorrow.

Without getting into the politics of vaccinations, I did a brief search for coronavirus vaccines; couldn't find any human childhood (or adult) vaccine for any kind of coronavirus. I'm not enough of an expert to say it couldn't happen, but not sure why any of the standard childhood vaccinations would confer cross immunity to a coronavirus strain.
