  Out of 320 million people, I am really going to go get some more supplies for something now!  The county had a house fire here and killed an 80 year old. I am going to not stay in my house now, they can be dangerous!

Isn't that the truth!!!!

Yup, and about 150 people in the US will die from colon cancer today. Another 96 will be killed in automobile accidents. Same thing tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow ...... But 3 dead from the virus .... OMG WHAT HORROR!!

50 times as many people died yesterday (or any day) from malaria

Gotta start somewhere. If 1-5 people die from a NEW cancer it would also be probably be news. I don't think we need to panic but I think this could realistically become 'another" flu like illness and we would be lucky if it is seasonal. For sure the elderly or other wise immune compromised don't want to get this thing.

One good thing this is keeping the media busy and other than the left wing zealots blaming Trump for not handling it "correctly" or accusing him of destroying the CDC I haven't heard anymore impeachment BS. I guess they are too busy stealing the nomination from Bernie to give to Bumbles.

 We just found out about a confirmed case in the county to our west.  The guy worked in the Indian casino over there.  They took him out of a middle school basketball game Weston and he's now in the horsepistol in Walla Walla. 
Lovely.  Just friggin' lovely.

I heard alcohol kills the virus. I went to the liquor store today and guess what? No lines, no waiting. All shelves fully stocked.

News this morning confirmed 6 dead in Washington state AND THAT 16,000 DEAD FROM THE FLU THIS YEAR.

Flu deaths are not in the news ...... only COVID-19.
 

Post up a link to 16,000 deths in U.S. since January 1st, please?
Yes, the flu is in the news everyday, but not drawing the attention of the fake news media like COVID-19, but we all know why...at least most of us do.

And the panic in Washington continues. This morning Seattle announced they are buying a motel to house the sick and homeless.

There's no doubt that certain people go overboard with their dramatizing the issue.   For example, you got caught up with it a bit yourself in that you did not explain that getting housing for homeless people in the Seattle area has been a hot issue long before the Coronavirus hit the news.  Not saying that you intended this to be the case, but at a time when people needs such information so as to rightfully downplay the situation...they did not get it from the link that you posted.

And they are going to put a sign over the entrance that reads;

It’s odd but earlier that article said it would house homeless as well as Corona virus patients and now the homeless is gone. Also heard on local radio that it would be used to house both. If Seattle was really concerned for homeless they would have done something years ago. But now that Governor Inslee announced a state of emergency he is looking for $$$$

They will probably get some things accomplished, but I doubt it will be anything near adequate.

Six died that were in a storage facility where they were waiting to die.  It sounds like nature taking it's course in a nursing home.

We are all in a storage facility and are going to die.

Scientists Discover HIV-Like 'Mutation' Which Makes Coronavirus Extremely Infectious

For those confused, what the latest scientific paper claims is that whereas the Coronavirus may indeed contain a specific HIV-like feature that makes it extremely infectious, that was the result of a rather bizarre “mutation.” However, since the scientists did not make the scandalous claim that Chinese scientists had created an airborne version of HIV, but instead blamed a mutation, they will likely not be forced to retract it, even if it the odds of such a “random” mutation taking place naturally are extremely small.

As a reminder, the running narrative is that the new coronavirus lie dormant in bats somewhere between 20 and 70 years, then ‘crossed over’ to humans through and unknown species – possibly a Pangolin – before it emerged at a Wuhan, China meat market roughly 900 feet from a level-4 bioweapons lab.

And what were they researching at said lab? Among other things – why Ebola and HIV can lie dormant in bats without causing diseases.

According to the new study, the ‘mutation’ can generate a structure known as a cleavage site in the new coronavirus’ spike protein, SCMP reports. “Compared to the Sars’ way of entry, this binding method is “100 to 1,000 times” as efficient, according to the study.”

 Working fine with a little help from China? In with the new and out with old! This is not the first pandemic either, and we brought in on Airliners bet on it! The government failed to contain it,I say through the dirty laundry out and hang  them  up to dry.
