It is, on purely statistical basis.   

 

As I said before, it's not in China's interest to suppress new cases, because that would open them up to much greater questioning on either the virus's origin or having the cure.

  Don't make either "G" in GG stand for gullible.  China is a closed society with traditionally very minimal media freedom.  I doubt that their leadership worries about covering up new cases as they don't expect it to reach the light of day in terms of the West finding out.  We are talking about a nation where most problems are dealt with in terms of soldiers having orders to shoot resisters.

Basing any kind of analysis on what the Chinese release is just plain a waste of time...Look at Italy.

 

My take....It is inevitable that like DT said....CV is going to "wash through" our country. Ultimately there will be hundreds of thousands...if not millions of casualties (pending a vaccine). 

 

No amount of economic help from the Feds can replace the loss of economic activity that is going to be incurred in a quarantine/shutdown. Think about this: A restaurant is in a plaza...shuts down - employees out of work. Restaurant has credit line with bank and a lease with a developer. Developer out of rent can't make payments might default on mortgage, restaurant out of credit line conditions with bank. Employees can't pay bills with a $1,000 check. Multiply by millions. 

 

This is the reality that we are looking at - and if you get a hold of leaked meetings and reports.....they know it

 

What I think is going to happen? A policy of low risk people get on with their lives and the high risk try to stay out of harms way. Hundreds of thousands if not millions of casualties and not much to stop it....and that is the choice that is going to be made. 

  I think that most of us can see a cascading effect through the economy.  Let's make changes starting with getting rid of the usury provisions that were dealt to the credit card companies back in the early 1980's.  For that matter let's punish any would be loan sharks by holding their legs under the lid of a garbage truck while the hydraulic rams make the lid crush down on the legs.

the JIT delivery system is is beginning to experience unprecedented stress. if indeed the CV washes through the States, how it fairs in the days ahead is going to be tantamount to how society's reactions fair. as long as it remains essentially viable, things should be okay. however, as i would think, due to logical progressions, there are going to be severe breakdowns in the JIT delivery system which will precipitate ensuing chaos.

Virus classificatione
(unranked): Virus
Realm: Riboviria

Family: Coronaviridae
Subfamilies and genera

 

 

 

axonomy[edit]

The family Coronaviridae is organized in 2 sub-families, 5 genera, 23 sub-genera and about 40 species:[2]

Coronavirus is the common name for Coronaviridae and Orthocoronavirinae, also called Coronavirinae.[4][5] Coronaviruses cause diseases in mammals and birds. In humans, the viruses cause respiratory infections, including the common cold, which are typically mild, though rarer forms such as SARS, MERS and COVID-19 can be lethal. Symptoms vary in other species: in chickens, they cause an upper respiratory disease, while in cows and pigs coronaviruses cause diarrhea. There are no vaccines or antiviral drugs to prevent or treat human coronavirus infections. They are enveloped viruses with a positive-sense single-stranded RNA genome and a nucleocapsid of helical symmetry. The genome size of coronaviruses ranges from approximately 26 to 32 kilobases, the largest for a RNA virus. The name "coronavirus" is derived from the Ancient Greek 'κορώνη', meaning crown or halo, which refers to the characteristic appearance of the virus particles (virions): they have a fringe reminiscent of a crown or of a solar corona.

This is wrong, no matter how many times you repeat it. When faced with the truth you just revert back to misinformation.

    Failures of the Administrative State in the Pandemic Crisis

    by Ned Ryun

    Original Article

     

    Within the next couple of weeks, the American people will have a clearer sense of how great a challenge our nation faces in the months and potentially years ahead. Despite Democrats’ insistent focus on making this pandemic crisis about President Trump and his Administration—and the media happily jumping on that bandwagon—there are facts that cannot be ignored, and many of them are things the Democrat members of Congress (or former members of the Obama Administration) don’t want the American people to know. Recall that Democrats like David Axelrod and members of the Obama national security team attempted to claim that the Trump Administration had “gutted” or “eliminated”

    As the regulars know I am in support of medicare for all.  Just like I am in support of this financial help for the economy.  In times of crisis the government must step in and help people.  The reason I support M4A is because the american health system is in crisis imo.  So many people out of work soon will be without health insurance as it is tied to employment.  That is going to be one of the many problems resulting from the fallout of this pandemic.

     

    On a different note, this is showing people's true colors like nothing I have seen before.  Some NBA players are stepping up to pay arena workers wage while their billionaire owners do nothing to help.  Some billion dollar companies are asking workers to share pto with co-workers while others like McDonald's and Starbucks are paying employees 2 weeks pay if they are quarantined.  I have been paying attention and will be speaking with my dollars to the companies that value their employees as human beings instead of cogs in a machine when this is all over.

     

    I am still working (healthcare industry) and have had conversations with my wife about what to do with a stimulus check.  I want to donate it and am looking for appropriate ways to do so.  I urge any of you in the same boat to do the same if possible.

    I hope there is a better cure than this for people's sake.  My wife was on antimalarial drugs and they were horrible.  The side effects were worse than the problem she was prescribed them for.  There has been progress with rheumatoid arthritis drugs showing signs of being effective as well which were much less painful.  With everyone working in lock step hopefully this is solved soon!

    RNA virus

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
     
     
    Jump to navigationJump to search

    An RNA virus is a virus that has RNA (ribonucleic acid) as its genetic material.[1] This nucleic acid is usually single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) but may be double-stranded RNA (dsRNA).[2] Notable human diseases caused by RNA viruses include Ebola virus disease, SARS, rabies, common cold, influenza, hepatitis C, hepatitis E, West Nile fever, polio, measles, and COVID-19.

    The International Committee on Tax

     

    Group III – dsRNA viruses[edit]

    There are twelve families and a number of unassigned genera and species recognised in this group.[7]

    Group IV – positive-sense ssRNA viruses[edit]

    There are three orders and 34 families recognised in this group. In addition, there are a number of unclassified species and genera.

    Satellite viruses

    An unclassified astrovirus/hepevirus-like virus has also been described.[24]

    Group V – negative-sense ssRNA viruses[edit]

    With the exception of the Hepatitis D virus, this group of viruses have been placed into a single phylum—Negarnaviricota. This phylum has been divided into two subphyla—Haploviricotina and Polyploviricotina. Within the subphylum Haploviricotina four classes are currently recognised: Chunqiuviricetes, Milneviricetes, Monjiviricetes and Yunchangviricetes. In the subphylum Polyploviricotina two classes are recognised: Ellioviricetes and Insthoviricetes.

    Six classes, seven orders and twenty four families are currently recognised in this group. A number of unassigned species and genera are yet to be classified.[7]

    Characteristics[edit]

    Single-stranded RNA viruses and RNA Sense[edit]

    RNA viruses can be further classified according to the sense or polarity of their RNA into negative-sense and positive-sense, or ambisense RNA viruses. Positive-sense viral RNA is similar to mRNA and thus can be immediately translated by the host cell. Negative-sense viral RNA is complementary to mRNA and thus must be converted to positive-sense RNA by an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase before translation. As such, purified RNA of a positive-sense virus can directly cause infection though it may be less infectious than the whole virus particle. Purified RNA of a negative-sense virus is not infectious by itself as it needs to be transcribed into positive-sense RNA; each virion can be transcribed to several positive-sense RNAs. Ambisense RNA viruses resemble negative-sense RNA viruses, except they also translate genes from the negative strand.[5]

    Double-stranded RNA viruses[edit]

    Further information: Double-stranded RNA viruses
    220px-Structure_of_the_reovirus_virion.p
     
    Structure of the reovirus virion

    The double-stranded (ds)RNA viruses represent a diverse group of viruses that vary widely in host range (humans, animals, plants, fungi, and bacteria), genome segment number (one to twelve), and virion organization (Triangulation number, capsid layers, spikes, turrets, etc.). Members of this group include the rotaviruses, renowned globally as the most common cause of gastroenteritis in young children, and picobirnaviruses, renowned worldwide as the most commonly occurring virus in fecal samples of both humans and animals with or without signs of diarrhea. Bluetongue virus is an economically important pathogen of cattle and sheep. In recent years, remarkable progress has been made in determining, at atomic and subnanometeric levels, the structures of a number of key viral proteins and of the virion capsids of several dsRNA viruses, highlighting the significant parallels in the structure and replicative processes of many of these viruses.[2]

    Mutation rates[edit]

    RNA viruses generally have very high mutation rates compared to DNA viruses,[6] because viral RNA polymerases lack the proofreading ability of DNA polymerases.[7] This is one reason why it is difficult to make effective vaccines to prevent diseases caused by RNA viruses.[8] Retroviruses also have a high mutation rate even though their DNA intermediate integrates into the host genome (and is thus subject to host DNA proofreading once integrated), because errors during reverse transcription are embedded into both strands of DNA before integration.[9] Some genes of RNA virus are important to the viral replication cycles and mutations are not tolerated. For example, the region of the hepatitis C virus genome that encodes the core protein is highly conserved,[10] because it contains an RNA structure involved in an internal ribosome entry site.[11]
