The state department issued a level 4 travel advisory today for China - do not travel..this is the same level as North Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, VenezuelaCy_Tolliver said:
Again, I ask why is the CDC not demanding restrictions on international travel from China?
They issue dire press releases for measles infections demanding action as if the world is ending even though measles is far less severe than other diseases and extremely rarely results in death.

Sorry - I'm asking about the CDC, which has been the guidepost for disease control. State Dept is under Trump which I would expect sanity. CDC is a corrupt organization. This type of thing is literally why they exist.Zemira said:The state department issued a level 4 travel advisory today for China - do not travel..this is the same level as North Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, VenezuelaCy_Tolliver said:

Serious question: why is this such a big deal? Flu kills so many more people and spreads very rapidly...more than 300 cases a day. Why are we so worried?
My real concern is that it's A LOT worse than China is letting on and they are scared ****less.
So to rehash the previous 59 pages just for you...
This is a new (novel) virus not known to infect humans before, so as far as we know no immunity. China is basically coming to a stand still economically, therefore the world Economy will be slowing also. There is reason to suspect that China was studying (if not modifying) this virus in a bio lab. China's reported numbers are suspected to be several times lower than real numbers. Infected persons are spreading the virus before showing symptoms. The mortality of this virus seems to be 20-30 times that of the normal flu. The spread of this virus appears to be 2 to 3 times more than the normal flu. I'm sure I have left off several other important facts.
Here is my personal answer again.
The death rate may be a lot lower due to the unknown number of cases that are mild and never wind up being tracked. Right now the death rate is only for those bad enough to go to the hospital or seek out testing. At least I hope...

Not sure why most of the shaded area is less than sars for contagiousness when there are already a lot more cases than ever of sars.

They raised it to Level 4 yesterday.
The article I listed gave evidence for and against several theories.JJxvi said:
Everything to do with "its engineered" is tinfoil. People are biting on the lines of internet trolls, and then the echo chamber and random coincidence feeds the conspiracy believers
Can you give us evidence that proves its not?JJxvi said:

Not likely, in this case. This is the Bt cotton of the virus world.KorbinDallas said:
In my opinion, just because it came out of a bio lab doesn't mean it was created there. It could have been naturally occurring and was being studied, trying to find a vaccine, or trying to manipulate.

So now people think this thing is linked to HIV? What the ****?
Can we just focus on where it's spreading and how many people it's killing?

Highly qualified researchers are studying the virus and we are posting information. We have the mental ability to do both.yukmonkey said:

Sounds like you are trolling then.JJxvi said:daggertx said:Can you give us evidence that proves its not?JJxvi said:
