Not necessarily. You can be as deadly by indirect means (cloging up the hospitals with infected, disruption of infrastructure, ect.)
i will stick with the original story that this is mutated strain of SARS that became a pandemic after the last failed SARS epidemic, it mutated and became more infectuis but less lethal than previous strain
I'm not saying it's a bio weapon but Chinese might fuck up big time just by accident.
this is only possible in asia/africa/middle east because of the unsanitary markets and livestock farms
is it no wonder than previus 2 outbraks were SARS and MERS
That contributed to the spread, for sure. But there are a lot of "coincidences" around this outbreak.
The rule of thumb for me is : if governments shit their pants on the prospect of it appearing in their state then it is serious.
And I forgot to mention. Worst case scenario that some are speculating is that it is uncontainable and will become seasonal. Like a ful that can destroy your lungs, give you a heart attack, kidneys damage and sterilize you.
A meme to inspire
wholesome
we'll see if it spreads at the same rate outside of china in a few weeks
Already had the chance to spread at the same rate in Japan and it didnt
its likely due to the density of infections in China that the rate is so high
not quite, we'll see how japan does in two weeks
the incubation time is LONG
Japans first major spreader was over 3 weeks ago
and chinese reaction started weeks before the initial response came out
He only spread to 4 people despite having contact with over 300
The incubation period has been confirmed in Japan as under two weeks in most cases
Several people have had incubation periods of under 5 days
And the virus is not a bioweapon. Gnome is already sequenced. If it was a bioweapon we would already know about it
+Lethality is too low
why are governments using HIV medication to treat symptoms?
Because HIV meds are extremely powerful anti-viral drugs. We dont actually have alot of drugs that directly combat viruses because they are hard to kill and usually not serious enough to warrent a threat to the body.
It might be that other anti-virals work but HIV meds are the strongest in common usage so it was the natural first attempt to combat it
The same drugs worked on SARS back in the day too so doctors reached for them right away do to the virus being 70% or more SARS DNA
How the hell Italy got 80 cases of Wu flu?
Tourists?
This is some movie horror shit. People are aperantly starting to lose their marbles.
Good God. The Italians don't even know where the source of their cluster comes from.
Just great.
too many siestas
155 cases in Italy... What the fuck is going on?!
They start to isolate cities
Yeah it's concerning
Time to stockpile stuff for when it inevitably hits Hamburg and the surrounding areas
It was already detected in Germany but most confirmed cases are already "cured".
