It’s crossed the border into North Korea.

No resources, terrible healthcare.

They cancelled their big parade.

No one will know cause as you know the lights are already out.

Patient in San Diego with Coronavirus, her lab results mislabeled at CDC, so she is released.

She wasn't "released", she was sent back to quarantine, instead of being sent to hospital isolation.
When the error was found, she was sent back to the hospital. If quarantine was being followed correctly, should be no harm, just :roll:

Chinese billionaire says 50,000 dead on TV. 1.5 million confirmed cases.

I don’t know, I’ll check the Harris County website for my not fake news.

I don’t believe is information or who he says he is. If a Chinese billionaire said this on “TV” the Chinese government would arrest him and take all of his assets.

On a side note: i do think infected is over a million with probably at least 100k dead. Blocking cities with military and shut down all celebrations and transit is huge

Even so, anything coming through or linked to zerohedge and/or Steve Bannon is immediately suspect.

Speaking of zerohedge... https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/ ... y-covid-19

At this point they're grasping at straws. Coincidences? Or forced comparisons of events that really don't have anything to do with each other? The Beijing lab incidents that spanned DECADES really isn't that common for China, and that lab is not closely watched by the international community like the P4 lab. Outbreak during the holidays? Last I checked, Christmas/Hanukkah isn't really celebrated by the South Chinese. The virus broke over a month before Lunar New Year. Militarizing of the Wuhan lab? Maybe there are live Covid-19 specimens there for study now as opposed to a few months ago, and the Chinese government really wants to make sure security is tight there. I can't read minds, but nor can that Tyler person who wrote that article. But then, stuff like this is what makes me entertained by Zerohedge, etc.

Regardless, it doesn't matter how it broke out. What matters is containment. The Chinese government was slow to react, but they seriously put the hammer down when they did react, and I commend them for it. Other governments are starting to do the same. Are the Chinese fudging the numbers? Yeah, probably. They are pathological liars after all, never to be trusted. But in this case, publishing lower numbers keeps people calm. I think I can live with that sin in this instance. As long as we stay safe stateside, I'm not going to worry about it. I'll just periodically monitor it to learn new stuff. Bio was never a strong suit of mine.

I'll believe it when someone more credible than zerohedge says it's so.

While back someone mentioned a second wave when healthcare workers get ill.

That may be happening.
