Wuhan Coronavirus - COVID-19 Analysis & Summary - This is not just fucking pneumonia. It is everything but the kitchen sink. Lungs, heart, kidneys, liver, brain, blood vessels, testes. It affects them all.

This. This thread.

This is why people join up here.

I can't stop laughing.

This is a beautiful beautiful thread. Times like this we all unite as one

Lolcow thread for him maybe?

 

[Bat Soup Reviews]

Mind you this is from a month ago, I cant imagine how much shit this guy has hoarded by now.

Haha. Ahah. Yeah.

MSA Millennium with Mira and Mestel 40mm CBRN filters, Duraskin gloves, Tyvek suits, Kappler Chemtape for my wrists, Diversey Virex and Oxivir disinfectant, drop cloths and duct tape to make a decontamination airlock, hatchet, hand-crank radio, matches, paracord, a ferrocerium firestarter, Lifestraw filters, chlorine tablets, canned food, Datrex bars, and all sorts of other shit. Oh, and a thousand rounds each of 9mm, 5.56x45mm, and .308, for my pistols and rifles, in case I have to shelter in place and someone comes for my supplies.

In this situation, no level of paranoia is too excessive. Even if this pandemic were to stall out, I wouldn’t even be mad I spent so much money. I’d just carefully store my stuff for next time.

If you have to go out in this shit, P100 full-face masks at the minimum. 40mm NATO CBRN better. Much better. And you have to decontaminate all the gear when doffing it, using quaternary ammonia or peroxide, and/or a UV lamp. It has to be full-face. The virus can enter your eyes through the ocular surface and it has 1000 times the cell-to-cell binding efficiency of SARS.

Furin cleavage site in the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus glycoprotein

The spike glycoprotein of the newly emerged SARS-CoV-2 contains a potential cleavage site for furin proteases, an observation with implications for the zoonotic origin of the virus and its epidemic spread in China.

Coronavirus more likely than Sars to bond to human cells, scientists say

Research by team from Nankai University shows new virus has mutated gene similar to those found in HIV and Ebola.

www.scmp.com

It looks like a lab-made GOF pathogen. It is practically optimized for human-to-human transmission, with spike glycoproteins with furin cleavage sites that use HIV-like methods to hook into human cells. It can effortlessly bind with your cells, unlike SARS-CoV.

Mind you this is from a month ago, I cant imagine how much shit this guy has hoarded by now.

This is the retard who declares scarcity as a sign of the end times all while he causes it by tard hoarding everything because he's a big fucking idiot.

The more I see, the more it's clear this faggot gets a boner when he thinks he's one of the chosen survivors, like all doomers and chicken hawks.

Just fuck up my sides

Shit, you people are going to use that against me, aren't you? Three years from now, I'm going to be winning an argument, against all odds, and someone's going to retort with "at least I don't rub my armpits on people".

 

[Drain Todger]

You got doxed as a complete and utter sperg that fantasizes about fucking horses and who is too exceptional to do any research or get when people are done with you given you can't sort information by relevence and YOU'RE STILL DOOMPOSTING HERE.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Now, now. Everyone has their kinks, else I imagine this excellent sadism site wouldn’t even exist.

I see you updated your Fanfiction.net account recently. Could you un-delete those Powerpuff Girls fanfictions you wrote? We would all love to read them.

Sadly, I lost those many, many years ago and don’t have a backup, at all. They were script-fics and fell afoul of FF.net’s rule changes a long, long time ago.

They were also hot garbage, to be honest. Too bad. I'm sure they would've been a hoot to read, twenty fucking years later.

Dude…No.
Instead of all this doom and gloom I suggest you read stuff coming out of South Korea. Or Japan.
Non-chink yellows are good at school for a reason.

Well, that's different. I'm not sure what the hell Japan are doing, but South Korea and Singapore are doing an excellent job at containment.

Are you expecting any kiwi to take you seriously at this point? Your optimism knows no bounds.

Honestly, I don't care. Everything is in the sources I cited, if someone who understands the terminology cares to read them. It's not me you need to take seriously, at all. It's the papers I linked.

What's that one rapper gif

I'm mostly just impressed that I went 20 fucking years being this much of a sperg online and you guys not only never noticed for that entire time, you didn't harvest the delicious milk.

However, this is completely irrelevant to the current situation. The fact that I thought COVID-19 was serious enough that someone like me was willing to wade into Kiwifarms, of all places, with information on the virus, knowing this forum's reputation very well, should concern you.

 

[Adamska]

I don't have to take anything you believe seriously, since you can't tell a good source from a bad and are a doomer sped who's been masturbating for the perfect time to murder your cats and whatever else in some delusional fantasy for over seven years. Plus you're only going this route after trying and utterly failing to DFE, meaning you have lost on that one chief. For a prepper, your ground game is very fucking shit.

And honestly, the attempt at being self-deprecating doesn't work since it's insincere and you're just hoping we leave you be if you try it so you can continue to be a doomer sperg and not have your name out in the universe on peak search engine results; akin to Linkara whenever he tries that shit.

All this time, you missed out on:

• A near-inhuman level of autism that shouldn't reasonably be able to exist in one person without causing a micro black hole.
• Me whining for years and years that Anita Sarkeesian isn't a real critic and political correctness is bullshit.
• Insert more sperging and clowning around here.
• Thousands upon thousands of words of trolling political commentary where I went on a forum full of neoliberals and proceeded to push their buttons by suggesting that post-scarcity economies are possible and we should pursue them.
• Anti-war stuff and tinfoil-hat theories about neocolonialism.
• /mlp/-tier Ponyfaggotry.
• Just generally being disgusting and perverse and whining that I can't post porn on SFW boards.
• Getting so frustrated with moderation on all the XF nerd boards I went to, I actually created my own XF board with lawlessness as the main theme. Currently closed, sadly. I'm getting sick of paying for server fees and domain renewals on a dead site, to be quite honest.

Aww, you edited this bit out just now! What, you don't want us to have your tl;dr of your various exploits over the years?

I edited it out not because I don't mind you knowing those things, but because I figured it was an unnecessary distraction from the virus. I would rather you all use your time and that sizable investigative skill digging into COVID-19 than digging into me, because, at the rate things are going, that would be a much better use of your time.

[Drain Todger]

Drain, buddy... everyone on this thread can now know at a glance how insane you are and why none of what you originally posted is worth reading. How? Because no sane person with worthwhile input or opinions would have taken this absolute ass pounding and stuck around.

I have consulted with PhD biologists, virologists, and immunologists on Discord, and I have have examined anecdotal reports from front-line doctors, and the general consensus is that yes, COVID-19 can do any of the following things. Technical terms in regular font, layman's terms in bold:

• Bilateral viral pneumonia leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome. Your lungs fill with fluid and you can't breathe.
• Lung fibrosis like someone who has inhaled asbestos all their life, leading to permanent scarring and reduction in lung capacity, and chronic fatigue. Your lungs turn into useless scar tissue.
• Myocarditis precipitating elevated troponin levels and myoglobinemia. Your heart muscle dissolves into your bloodstream and attacks your kidneys with acute kidney injury.
• Changes in liver levels and hypokalemia. You get mild hepatitis and your blood potassium drops.
• Bacterial co-infections. Your own gut bacteria starts eating you.
• Cytokine storm. Your body's own inflammatory response destroys more tissues than the virus itself.
• Injury to the seminiferous ducts of the testes. Patients are showing SERIOUS changes to their testosterone levels, with their hormones commanding their balls to make sperm that they can no longer make. Corona-chan can literally wipe out your balls and feminize you.
• Cerebrovascular and/or medullary injury precipitating dysautonomia. The virus attacks the lizard brain part of your brain and you can't breathe properly.

It's not "just a little flu". It's not just pneumonia, either. It's much, much worse. It can cripple people for fucking life, just like SARS did. Look it up. SARS survivors turned into PTSDed vegetables with chronic fatigue and breathing trouble years and years later.

'Alarming' mental problems seen in SARS survivors

Googling for five minutes to cherry pick via abstract and using a hypochondriac's heuristics and intentionally picking super rare outliers to make the Wuhan Flu into Super-AIDS isn't research. It's signs you are desperate to want to watch the normals die and live like the bullet merchant from Mad Max, a vindication to wasting years of your life waiting for some millenarian disaster to happen.

Only you're still gonna get killed, probably just by some scuzzy hobo in such an apocalypse it's clear you're rock hard for rather than the actual Road Warrior.

For real @Drain Todger, what @Adamska says is fucking on point. You call it an "unnecessary" distraction from COVID-19, but I argue the exact opposite. There are already people much smarter than any of us working on the frontlines combating this epidemic. Some random shitposter on a cyberbullying forum (i.e. you, or me, or any of us) isn't going to be the 'plucky maverick that cracks the case'. Most of us are not equipped to be studying pathogen epidemiology and virology, and it's arrogant as fuck to assume you can just purchase a couple of freshman-level biology textbooks and be "up to speed" in a couple of weeks.

So in the meantime, what's wrong with laughing at speds?

Well, they know now. Mind you, I was already contacting people weeks and weeks ago with this same stuff, before our doctors even knew for certain that COVID-19 could do all of these things, and one by one, their anecdotal reports are matching what I've said almost exactly.

A lot of our front-line doctors were completely blindsided by this thing. They laughed it off until it was right upon them, and then they realized, holy shit, this isn't the flu, and there are young people getting hemorrhagic changes in their lungs and coughing up pink froth.

A Medical Worker Describes Terrifying Lung Failure From COVID-19 — Even in His Young Patients — ProPublica

“It first struck me how different it was when I saw my first coronavirus patient go bad. I was like, Holy shit, this is not the flu. Watching this relatively young guy, gasping for air, pink frothy secretions coming out of his tube.”

www.propublica.org

His hospital had not prepared for this volume before the virus first appeared. One physician had tried to raise alarms, asking about negative pressure rooms and ventilators. Most staff concluded that he was overreacting. “They thought the media was overhyping it,” the respiratory therapist told me. “In retrospect, he was right to be concerned.”

He spoke to me by phone on Thursday about why, exactly, he has been so alarmed. His account has been condensed and edited for clarity.

“Reading about it in the news, I knew it was going to be bad, but we deal with the flu every year so I was thinking: Well, it’s probably not that much worse than the flu. But seeing patients with COVID-19 completely changed my perspective, and it’s a lot more frightening.”

Oh, and COVID-19 is also turning our docs into Vietnam vets with thousand-yard stares, if it isn't infecting and killing them:

Treating coronavirus takes serious toll on health-care workers’ mental health, study finds

A study of health care workers in China found that approximately 50% of participants experienced depressive symptoms, 45% experienced anxiety, 34% experienced insomnia, and 72% experienced distress.

www.inquirer.com

Miller said that for most physicians, to do a good job is to be able to take care of patients the best they can. Not being able to do that because they are overworked and lacking resources causes stress and can lead to depression, he said.
And the way that patients are dying from COVID-19 is “quite different,” Miller said.

“They’re dying while isolated, alone, begging and pleading with professionals to pass on messages to their families,” Miller said. Health-care workers "have to make tough choices, and there’s no visible endpoint to this. They can’t help everybody, and so the repeated feedback from their environment is that they’re not doing a good job.”

Over 100 Employees at Boston-Area Hospitals Test Positive for Coronavirus

Two Boston hospitals each reported that more than 40 employees have tested positive for the new coronavirus Wednesday, though one cautioned that most may not have contracted it at work.

www.nbcboston.com

Doctors at Massachusetts General have already found themselves in a marathon, one said earlier Wednesday, with no end in sight.

"Even our amazing team is getting worn down," said Ali Raja, who runs the hospital's emergency department. "They aren't used to having this kind of stuff affect their daily lives at home. that's what's so different about this."

The virus is highly contagious and has already deeply strained hospitals' reserves of personal protective equipment, including at Massachusetts General, whose president last week asked people with 3D printers to help make masks in an effort to keep his staff protected.

While everyone else was going "haha doomers btfo", I was compiling lists of PPE and gear and stuff that would be necessary for our healthcare workers to survive this virus, and I was trying to contact doctors and nurses on Facebook and warn them that they needed fucking PAPR hoods, like some real Hot Zone shit, if they wanted to avoid getting sick.

You know what? None of it mattered. The necessary PPE doesn't actually exist in the required numbers. These poor fuckers don't have P100s, CBRN respirators, and/or PAPR hoods or fucking balloon suits. They're gonna be stuck with surgical masks when the N95s run out.
