🔥@BrianKarem:”With so few (#coronavirus) tests being done and the incubation rate being as much as 2 weeks, how can we accurately say that the risk is low, at this point?”

Pence:😳

More on Pence/Trump’s inept response to #COVID19 with quotes from me.👇🏼

“Dr. Grayson...has overseen the development of broad-spectrum antiviral drugs against deadly viruses. She believes the Trump administration has badly fumbled its attempts to contain #COVID19: ‘We are behind the eight ball...This checks all the boxes for a global #pandemic’.”
“The government’s response to #COVID19 is ‘totally catastrophic. A total #fail’.” ~me, quoted in this blistering piece about #coronavirus task force “leader” Mike Pence’s disastrous press briefing on our nation’s response to the #CoronavirusOutbreak.

🔥"#China’s errors–dating back to the very 1st patients–were compounded by political leaders who dragged their feet to inform the public of the risks and to take decisive control measures."

How It All Started: China’s Early #Coronavirus Missteps

#COVID19
wsj.com/articles/how-i…
"When doctors did finally establish the (wildlife market) link in late Dec, they quarantined (a patient) & others & raised the alarm to their superiors. *But they were prevented by Chinese authorities from alerting their peers, let alone the public*.

Just like 1918 Spanish Flu.
Even though we *just* saw the #CoronavirusOutbreak EXPLODE in #China in real-time, the Trump Administration *refused* to alert healthcare/public-health personnel or the public.

This has DELAYED our response, just like #China did.🤬

⚠️I *hammer* Trump's #COVID19 task force for its "blunders in our #pandemic preparedness by not quickly deploying #coronavirus testing kits nor having sufficient testing capacity EARLY, when containment would've been much more feasible."

@kashmiragander
newsweek.com/coronavirus-te…
As I warned, there will be a "massive surge" in #COVID19 cases thru March, initially due to increased testing, but also because #coronavirus has been spreading within US communities for ≥3 weeks with little/NO testing.🤬

The keys to containment are:

▶️EARLY detection
▶️Contact tracing
▶️Quarantines

Trump's #COVID19 "task force" TOTALLY FAILED and instead LIED about the seriousness of the #CoronavirusOutbreak and the availability of #coronavirus tests.🤬

⚠️Chinese doctors say autopsies of #coronavirus victims suggest that #COVID19 is “like a combination of #SARS and #AIDS as it damages both the lungs and immune systems,” and can cause “irreversible” lung damage even if the patient survives.

@thespybrief
news.com.au/lifestyle/heal…
This latest report of SARS-like lung damage is consistent with prior clinical reports of #coronavirus cases from #China. At least 1 patient who survived #COVID19 later received a lung transplant due to permanent fibrosis ("scarring") of his lungs.

nypost.com/2020/03/02/chi…
Lung inflammation + low lymphocyte counts ("#AIDS"-like immunosuppression) in #coronavirus patients presents a conundrum. Doctors sometimes use steroids to blunt the lung inflammation, but the downside is further immunosuppression.

Rock, meet hard place.

#Coronavirus Thread>>> I am seeing many patients with respiratory “flu-like” illness as I have every “flu” season for the past 2 decades. With mixed messages from the @realDonaldTrump administration and reports of cases without known exposure, people are concerned that they 1/7
might have #COVID19. I have thoroughly read the @CDC related guidelines, and I am still not entirely sure what to tell them. I know that their risk is low if they have not had contact with a known infected individual, and if they have not travelled to any number of 2/7
countries listed on the CDC website. Even as this outbreak evolves and we have more cases in more communities, the risk of serious illness with young healthy people is very low. The concern now is for the elderly and chronically ill population for whom the mortality rate 3/7

Think someone is lying to you?

First check to see if they bothered to add any variability whatsoever in the model they are using to supposedly report actual numbers from a complex system.

#coronavirus
The mortality rate they want you to report is the - 0 day rate: Today's Confirmed Death total minus Today's Confirmed Case total.

This has not varied outside of 1/10th of 1% in the last 5 prints.

#coronavirus
But even a minor adjustment of a few days in the mortality rate paints an entirely different picture

Is #China lying? Experts question why authorities suddenly kicked into action weeks after first coronavirus case was reported

Claims that the regime has used its superpower status to stop WHO declaring an international emergency

dailymail.co.uk/health/article…
More than 1,300 people have been infected globally with virus traced to China

Despite this, the WHO has failed to declare a global health crisis on Thursday

Experts have warned prominent Chinese figures pressed the WHO over crisis
Sophie Richardson, China director at Human Rights Watch (HRW) is concerned about China's transparency in light of the quarantine of victims & China's wider response.

'From a medical & human rights perspective, it's essential that people can trust the information available.

You are EXPLOITING this tragedy. Her family deserves compassion. Her evil killer deserves justice. By making it about immigration, you're USING a victim. Have you done this with: Makiyah Wilson, 10; Kayden Mancuso, 7; Nia Wilson, 18; Casey Nicole Kizer, 17; Megan L Metzger, 19?
This is correct:
(via @Maria_Hinojosa)
This is exactly right, and it holds for #Pence, #Trump, Fox News, and others who are exploiting this horrific murder.
