(GATEWAY PUNDIT) RESEARCH SCIENTISTS NOW SAY PANGOLINS MAY HAVE SPREAD CORONAVIRUS TO HUMANS. THE DISEASE HAS KILLED OVER 1,000 PEOPLE WORLDWIDE AS OF TODAY, MOSTLY IN CHINA.
THE CHINESE EAT PANGOLIN MEAT AND USE THEIR SCALES FOR MEDICINAL PURPOSES.

Not too far off the subject, but does anyone have any idea as to who picks up the tab for all those extra days on the cruise ships while the passengers were quarantined? I’ve searched but can’t find the answer. I would think that the cruise lines would pay the hefty tab...

A Japanese couple that was recently vacationing in Hawaii for an entire week just tested positive for Corona virus. Apparently they were on and off a couple of Delta flights and naturally in and out of a couple airports.:shocked::shocked::shocked:

TInfectious Disease Specialist visits Diamond Princess in Japan and says the entire ship is virus laden, no one knows how to prevent the spead of the Coronavirus-even utensils are "dirty."
Diamond Princess: Professor Iwata described his horror on ...
Maybe some major lawsuits on this one but who is liable? Governments, Princess Cruise Line-who? I think Princess should have called in experts instead of letting the crew take care of the virus-apparently according to the specialist, they passed around the Coronavirus. They bear the major responsibility. Anyone want to go on a cruise and live, eat and associate in such close proximity to other people you don't even know? I think the cruise line industries are goign to take a big hit in revenue as passengers dwindle. Our own stock market fell and gold is higher than it has been in years.

In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died. That's fairly on par with a typical season, and well below the CDC's 2017-2018 estimates of 48.8 million illnesses, 959,000 hospitalizations and 79,400 deaths.Jun 20, 2019

Long incubation period, R0 as high as 6.7, spreads asymptomatically, 20x-50x deadlier than the flu

Earlier today Rush was saying percentage wise it is less deadly than the flew. Seem to recall something around 90% get over it with no ill defects. I have lung issues and for sure it would kill me.
