2019-nCoV WUHAN China viral outbreak! Continuously UPDATED ...CDC modeled Corona Virus Prediction using Plague Inc.
THIS IS THE FINAL UPDATE, POST CONTINUES IN A NEW POST
The outbreak of the Corona virus in China is now an undeniable FACT
5 8 10 11 18 Chinese cities are now quarantined & the president said on tv that this is a severe situation. Two days after videos appeared of people dying in the streets
MAJOR IMPORTANT UPDATE
Researchers into initial cases find first person with symptoms had no contact with market where disease is believed to have originated
The first person known to have been infected by the Wuhan coronavirus had never visited the city’s seafood market
There was also no epidemiological link between the first patient and the later cases, they found.
The first patient to die from the new coronavirus had continuous exposure to the market before he was admitted to hospital with a seven-day history of fever, cough and breathing difficulties, according to their report.
Five days after the onset of symptoms, his wife, a 53-year-old woman with no known history of exposure to the market, also presented with pneumonia and was hospitalised in the isolation ward, they said.
The absence of a link to the seafood market is one of the indicators for human-to-human transmission of the virus and the researchers identified another 13 patients who also had no direct exposure to the market.
Call for preparedness against airborne transmission, including fitted respirators and other personal protective equipment. Read more about this major news HERE
I will update this post several times a day
follow, share & revisit!
WHAT WE KNOW FOR A FACT!
The virus is spreading WorldWide
Official numbers do not add up with logic
This looks like a doomsday scenario from an apocalyptic movie, but there’s NO reason to panic!
BACKGROUND
By Jan 2, 2020, 41 admitted hospital patients had been identified as having laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection. Most of the infected patients were men (30 [73%] of 41); less than half had underlying diseases (13 [32%]), including diabetes (eight [20%]), hypertension (six [15%]), and cardiovascular disease (six [15%]). Median age was 49·0 years (IQR 41·0–58·0). 27 (66%) of 41 patients had been exposed to Huanan seafood market. One family cluster was found. Common symptoms at onset of illness were fever (40 [98%] of 41 patients), cough (31 [76%]), and myalgia or fatigue (18 [44%]); less common symptoms were sputum production (11 [28%] of 39), headache (three [8%] of 38), haemoptysis (two [5%] of 39), and diarrhoea (one [3%] of 38). Dyspnoea developed in 22 (55%) of 40 patients (median time from illness onset to dyspnoea 8·0 days [IQR 5·0–13·0]). 26 (63%) of 41 patients had lymphopenia. All 41 patients had pneumonia with abnormal findings on chest CT. Complications included acute respiratory distress syndrome (12 [29%]), RNAaemia (six [15%]), acute cardiac injury (five [12%]) and secondary infection (four [10%]). 13 (32%) patients were admitted to an ICU and six (15%) died. Compared with non-ICU patients, ICU patients had higher plasma levels of IL2, IL7, IL10, GSCF, IP10, MCP1, MIP1A, and TNFα.
Interpretation
The 2019-nCoV infection caused clusters of severe respiratory illness similar to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus and was associated with ICU admission and high mortality. Major gaps in our knowledge of the origin, epidemiology, duration of human transmission, and clinical spectrum of disease need fulfilment by future studies.

A new info map surfaced
United States ordered the evacuation of embassy personnel in Wuhan
23 confirmed cases in the USA, Chicago, New York & LA
all traffic in Wuhan is now FORBIDDEN
unbelievable but, A Quebec politician praises coronavirus for reducing carbon footprint
according to official numbers, we have,41 Confirmed Deaths, and more then thousand people infected in China. Social Media of Wuhan medical personnel speak of at least 90 thousand people infected and thousands of deaths.
Saterday 25/01/20
2019 n-CoV Virus coefficient of 3.8 (Spanish flu that killed millions had a 1.8)
I just woke up to the sound of ambulances,
Chinas Republic Army Declared WAR with VIRUS
Contamination is Spreading Worldwide
France announced a 3rd case
1st4 cases in Australia1st case in Israel
at least 3 cases in HongKong
Virus reached Korea
- last night people in Wuhan were protesting in the streets and the military marches in but now the streets in the city are deserted
Again the Simpsons predicted something like this with their self fulfilling prophecys
Friday 24/01/20
In This Video, a doctor from Wuhan talks about 90000 people infected and he says the virus has gone trough a mutation, and with at least ninety thousand people infected in that city alone, it makes it more logical why there are already so many city’s in quarantine
90.000 PEOPLE INFECTED
11 city’s are now officially in quarantine
- face masks and other equipment is out of stock in some hospitals and stores
- doctors are stressed and over worked
- the pressure on society is overwhelming
Press Conference health minister of France, a new case 48 years old, is now hospitalized in Bordeaux France.
The patient visited Wuhan, and has been in contact with approximately 10 people after returning to France. There’s little known about the patient in Paris (we think that could be the Michelin restaurant hopper)
2nd case CONFIRMED IN THE USA (The patient is a woman in her 60s, She had traveled to Wuhan in late December, flew back to Chicago January 13 .... so we have .....
approximation of 6 to 9 DAYS OF INCUBATION PERIOD where a person is contagious but not sick, we had approx A WHOLE WEEK OF WORLD WIDE TRAVELS between the announcement of HUMAN 2 HUMAN TRANSMISSION, closing of airports, quarantine and infected people popping up all over the world map
Where did the wuhan people travel to?
Just let that sink in for a moment
Recent pictures from hospital care unit interview on live tv for chinese new year
HOW TO DISPOSE OF A USED FACE MASK
REAL excerpt from interview with a virus expert
A Look inside Wuhan
Thursday 23/01/20
Death Tolls are Rising, and the virus has allegedly spread to 20+ cities in mainland china, also more other countries are having suspected cases.
WHO still not considering this a WorldWide Emergency
More videos emerging of hospitals being over run in Wuhan province
Stupid people, having disease symptoms are taking anti fever medication to be able to jump the plane to Paris to go and have a good time. Not taking in account, the many people this person could possibly endanger with their stupid, egocentric behavior, especially when you think about the words of warning from the viral expert!
I hope that, humanity realizes that we are all living in an inter connected world, living under the same sun, breathing the same air and we are all humans, made of stardust. And so we are connected
We Will Overcome, Love & Help Each Other Out In Times Of Need!
WHAT CAN WE DO?
And my initial thought for this post was, where could this go next.
*i used the Plague Inc. game for a prediction
And use the RTS simulation to check what possibly could happen.
And the outcomes are worrying
Especially taking in account that this is a game, where the Plague Inc. developer has spoken at the CDC about how he had modeled the spread of infectious disease inside the game as well as how games like Plague Inc. can be used to inform and educate the public.*
Following the talk, the CDC said that it was interested in Plague Inc. as "it uses a non-traditional route to raise public awareness on epidemiology, disease transmission, and diseases/pandemic information.
The game creates a compelling world that engages the public on serious public health topics".
As you can see we used the approximate location of Wuhan Centre For Disease as ground zero (coincidentally this happened by accidentally) i focused at the start of the game on air transmission of the disease, and that there is no cure.
What shows is a scary prediction of what could happen, if we are not taking any measures.
You could consider these eleven minutes of gameplay as a worst case scenario
THE VIDEO IS NOT A REAL PREDICTION, THIS COMES FROM A RTS DEVELOPED ON CDC MODELS!
And do not forget that many of the blockchain projects originate from China
I appreciate all of the charts, the photos. I believe in natural remedies.
