Now that the CDC has relaxed it's candidate testing for the virus, I really think the week of 1 March to 6 March will establish a good baseline for models in the USA. It's been foggy to date for sure. I'd expect the confirmed cases to reach about 300 in the USA by 6 March with "suspected" true cases being around 2,000 to 4,000 - but not identified or known about. What we decide to do as a country with regards to International Travel in the next 5 days will decide how fast we allow the virus to rip through, or enjoy the torture of a protracted period of decline.

The bulls we be out Monday on the Dow, but alas I fear this week gravity will simply win.
 

I enjoy watching this guy on twitter, he does his job pretty well.

A hospital in Chicago discharged an ILI patient with negative respiratory panel to home like...I don't know maybe 11-12 days ago?

That's not particularly a rare thing but if SARS-CoV-2 is potentially in your neighborhood you might not want to do that. This was shortly before the CDC spun up recommendations that made me think there was community spread somewhere.

So...it all kinda lines up with me thinking there's a silent outbreak in Chicago.
 
This is what I see. Entire sections of cheap shit has been removed. This is nothing fucking new. Even with your own damn picture you just proven it was a standard sale. Why is is there is still food and lots of it... INCLUDING the more expensive items in this picture??? This is fucking common when you have sales when the Ghetto people come out in their fancy ass cars and buy up shit. Seen this happen where I live so Show me something of mass panic items when entire rows of product have been removed from the shelves... THEN you might have something about people panic buying. This is fucking normal where I live.
Also remember that when the 1st of the month falls on a weekend, the welfare people get their cards loaded up the Friday before.
Food stamps are doled out depending on last number of your SS# so it's spread between the 1st and 15th (in my state at least).
We never go grocery shopping during the first week of any given month because of this.
 

Corona-chan cometh. Pretty glad I keep plenty of food stashed right now, I can't wait until the government start attempting China style enforced quarantine and London goes up in flames.
 
Looks like South Korea wants to punish the cultists.

The leaders of a religious sect in South Korea is facing a homicide investigation over some of the country's coronavirus deaths.
The city government of the capital Seoul has asked prosecutors to charge Lee Man-hee, the founder of the Shincheonji Church, and 11 others.
They are accused of hiding the names of some members as officials tried to track patients before the virus spread.
South Korea is battling the worst coronavirus outbreak outside China.
The country has reported 3,730 cases and 21 deaths so far. More than half of all infections involve members of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, a fringe Christian group.
Authorities say Shincheonji members infected one another in the southern city of Daegu last month, before fanning out around the country.

Also, their leader is being tested for Corona-chan.
 
Holy shieeet all she would have to do is to get to a weeb convetion and drown in neckbeards.

Does she expect to be a given a party mandated slanteyed Adonis?
You know china has a match making system going on right? I'm sure some one would recommend their government male man child.
 
That wasnt what I was getting at. 30 top flight bio rooms in a country of 330 million people seems awfully thin. It might be worse because I've seen some sources say the number is 20 (10/6/4 beds respectively) . Like I said, after all this is done with they should up the number some and have more than just three hospitals with them. Seems like a point of failure in the waiting.

Thing is. Ok. I didn't explain myself well enough.

The differences between a regular reverse pressure room and those rooms are as follows:
-these are close to biolabs of at least bsl3.
-they use better individual filters for air and water on top of the hospital's ones.
-their personnel is better trained.
-their doors have keyholes.

So let's go 1 by 1: as for 4, that's not to say hospital rooms don't have them. Just that for these ones its mandatory. Most hospitals use keys to avoid equipment theft anyway. So moot point. Also easy to fix.
When it comes to 1, that honestly doesn't matter that much, so long as the biolab is on the same region it should be fast enough.
2, the filters. Most hospital filters are already more than enough for almost all pathogens, the individual filtration is uber expensive and doesn't add that much more protection, the way the airflow is set already makes most rooms bout as good as they can be for an outbreak. It's much safer to separate the infected by wings and it's cheaper too.
Finally, the army is trained to aid contain outbreaks, at least most modern armies have divisions trained this way. In case of a deadly outbreak it won't be these room's personnel dealing with this shit. It'll be ay medics.

So these rooms AREN'T meant to stop outbreaks. Then what's the point? Simple. They're there for SCIENTIFIC purposes, not Healthcare. They're there for pre-outbreak studies of potentially lethal diseases. If the outbreak erupts their purpose will be to help ensure controlled environments for the sample size used to study the pathogen, not aid in the general effort.

Most countries have some, I know some were used here in spain last time some moroccan disease threatened us, I think it was ebola. But it doesn't matter for this. No country has that many, because they're not really for this purpose. 30 is more than sufficient.

Imma bet either she's such an autist as to have literally 0 social skills or she's such a total unrelenting bitch that no sane man would stay in the same room as her for over quarter an hour.

Also healthcheck: sorry for not sourcing yesterday the friends roped me in using my recovery as an excuse. I'm fairly sure I'm healthy now. My head hurts more than ever and I'm still on antacids but all other symptoms stopped and taking into account what I drank and ate last night I'mma bet its not corona doing this to me. Fucking hell I hadn't partied this hard since last carnaval.

Spain check: after first round of sentry samples cases rise to 74. Of which 72 are foreigners. Fucking kek, healthcare tourism memes keep rolling in. I do bet its probably because most spaniards know better than to go to the hospital with a "cuadro gripal" (flu symptoms) but 1st generation migrants are more jumpy. Hell not even 1 of my contacts, ALL of which exhibited symptoms at least symilar to corona, bothered asking for the sentry sample. So yeah... we really don't give a shit. In fact yesterday they did this questionaire about what is the biggest worry of the population and most of our neighbors said corona meanwhile spain said lack of jobs. PRAISE LORD KEK! Corona really is our waifu, people have just accepted her, fucking lol.

EDIT: news saying right now only 3 of those cases exhibit pneumonia, 0 deaths. All pneumonias are risk groups.

Han Bat Shul Lung Tang was one of five restaurants that lost business after being named in posts on a Korean messaging app that warned a Korean Air flight attendant with the virus had dined there during a layover in Los Angeles more than a week ago.

Han Bat Shul Lung Tang
The gods are just laughing at us now. What an unfortunate name for a restaurant.

You know what just pisses me off? I keep seeing perishables in those carts and the empty shelves photos are almost always of shit that takes mere days to decompose.

Hey fuckheads! Read the god damned expiration date! I'm betting in a few weeks most of the places where panick buyers got everything are gonna have food poisoning outbreaks from all these fucktards microwaving rotten crap.

I know. It's fucken great.

My own shelves are relatively well stocked with cans of soup, pasta, rice and stuff that doesn't really go off. I'll probably add some water and a few other bits n bobs but I can right now bake my own bread too if I want.
