Governor: Florida has first cases of coronavirus
https://www.wesh.com/article/florida-gov-says-coronvirus-2-presumptively-positive-tests/31180562

ORLANDO, Fla. —

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says two people in his state are the first to test “presumptively positive" for the coronavirus as he ordered health officials to declare a public health emergency surrounding the global spread of the coronavirus.

In a statement released by his office, DeSantis said the cases involve a person in Florida's Manatee County and another in Hillsborough County.

Older People,with a 'cold' or 'flu' - many with 'underlying' or 'overlying' conditions have been getting ill fO a very long time - and they succumb and die.

Many Do Not get a Panoply of tests and until now would not have received this New Test. Nor autopsies.

So, How many, over dA past Decades have died from Undetected Viruses?

I would Bet a Bunch. Not a Hit on Medical Profession. Heck, Old People Die a Lot and many many many deaths Do Not Get Scrutiny.

So, with a supposed New Virus Spanning dA Globe sickening and sometimes killing - Can It Really be said to be this 'New' Virus doing 'it'?

Like I've already mentioned: Something is 'Screwy' and I would not Doubt - a confluence of 'factors', which have been part of an Immensely Complicated World of Medicine have Finally become this Horrid Singularity.

The CDC states 9.3-45 million cases with 12-61 thousand deaths for the plain old "flu". In a worst-case scenario, taking the highest deaths with lowest cases, this is about 0.66%. Data from Iran suggests that COVID19 has a mortality of about 8-18%, and 3% worldwide from wealthier countries with correspondingly more health care technology. So it would appear at minimum to be five times as deadly as the flu, and perhaps much more so.

In years past, has anybody any Real Knowledge of what has sickened and killed People in China? I say No. And I say China also does not know.

For reasons not yet known, China seems to have released, at their convienence, news and data of a 'New' Virus sickening and killing their peoples. Whether it is Truly 'New', is yet to be determined.

Does China have any real data and knowledge of 'Numbers' of sick and dying during their 'cold' and 'flu' season? Have they ever released this info?

Has this 'New' Virus spread around da World before? When people get sick and recover or die during 'flu' and 'cold' 'season', are All these 'colds' and 'flus' scrutinized; tested; researched? Known about? by China or World? I Say No.

So we have a Perfect Scenario, for reasons Not Yet Known, of a 'New' 'Virus', with so far LOW Numbers of sickness and death, Scaring da Bajeebus out of Everyone in dA World.

When in actuallity, if these 'New' 'Virus' numbers are Morphed into dA 'Usual' Yearly 'Numbers' of Colds and Flu, no one would know a 'New' 'Virus' actually Existed.

World only knows because somehow, somewhere, somebody 'scrutinized' and ran 'tests' and FOUND 'IT'.

HMMMMMMMMM. Very Wierd I'd Say. And ON PURPOSE.

Yep

See what happens when the leaders of countries do not inform their citizens, or even themselves about the dangers of virus's.

Virus ravaging Iran kills confidant of its supreme leader
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — A member of a council that advises Iran’s supreme leader died Monday from the new coronavirus, becoming the highest-ranking official within the Islamic Republic’s Shiite theocracy to be killed by the illness ravaging the country.
...
Mirmohammadi’s death makes him the highest-ranking official within Iran’s theocracy to be killed by the virus. The virus earlier killed Hadi Khosroshahi, Iran’s former ambassador to the Vatican, as well as a recently elected member of parliament.

Iran stands alone in how the virus has affected its government, even compared to hard-hit China, the epicenter of the outbreak.

Those sick include Vice President Masoumeh Ebtekar, better known as “Sister Mary,” the English-speaking spokeswoman for the students who seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and sparked the 444-day hostage crisis, state media reported. Also sick is Iraj Harirchi, the head of an Iranian government task force on the coronavirus who tried to downplay the virus before falling ill.

The death rate in Iran is 4.4%.

Virus reaches new countries as crisis seems to ease in China
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The coronavirus appeared for the first time in New York, Moscow and Berlin and clusters of the disease surged around the world, even as new cases in China dropped to their lowest level in six weeks Monday and hundreds of patients were released from hospitals at the epicenter of the outbreak.

Almost nine times more cases were reported outside China than inside it over the past 24 hours, according to the head of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

South Korea, with the worst outbreak outside of China, said it recorded 599 new cases Monday, bringing the total to 4,335. The death toll rose to 26. To cope, the country said hospitals will be reserved for patients with serious symptoms or preexisting conditions, with mild cases now routed to other designated facilities.

“If we continue to hospitalize mild patients amid the continued surge in infections, we would be risking overworking medical professionals and putting them at greater risk of infections,” said the country’s vice health minister, Kim Gang-lip.

South Korea extended the shutdown of its schools two more weeks to March 23. And the leader of a church that has blamed for being the source of the country’s largest cluster of infections bowed in apology.

“We also did our best but weren’t able to contain it fully,” said Lee Man-hee, the 88-year-old leader of the Shincheonji church, which some mainstream Christian groups reject as a cult.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — A member of a council that advises Iran’s supreme leader died Monday from the new coronavirus, becoming the highest-ranking official within the Islamic Republic’s Shiite theocracy to be killed by the illness ravaging the country.

Sweden doesn't trust Iran's authorities.
The Swedish Transport Agency with immediate effect withdraws the permit for the airline Iran Air to fly from Iran to Sweden today. This is done at the request of the Public Health Authority with the aim of reducing the spread of the new corona virus in Sweden.
Sweden is the first country in the world to revoke the permit for the airline because of the corona virus, according to the Public Health Authority.
"As we know, there is a fairly large outbreak in Iran now and we have come to the conclusion that we do not trust the Iranian authorities to handle the situation in a way that has been done in, for example, China or South Korea," says Johan Carlson, Director General of the Public Health Authority.
The agency believes that the true spread of infection is significantly greater than the data reported by Iran.
" WHO has a team in place, but we do not get any feedback from it. And we can see that Iran exports the infection in a different way than the other countries with major outbreaks. The figures from the Iranian authorities do not match patterns in the rest of the world", says Johan Carlson.

On Monday, the World Health Organization (WHO) said that the new disease Covid-19 so far has a mortality rate of 3.4 percent - a significantly higher proportion than before.
It was at a press conference that WHO Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus found that Covid-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus sars-cov-2, is more deadly but less contagious than regular flu.
The WHO now themselves admit that the figure they communicated outward is probably exaggerated. Despite this, the organization has chosen to compare apples to pears - the mortality rate in common influenza to which WHO refers is measured over a longer period of time.
The large - and unknown - variable that will affect the estimated mortality of Covid-19 is the large number of people who are infected with sars-cov-2 without any symptoms.
Epidemologists say that a population-level mortality rate of 0.7-0.8 percent is more reasonable.

Report: Outbreak of idiocy spreading 10,000 times faster than coronavirus

https://thebeaverton.com/2020/01/report-outbreak-of-idiocy-spreading-10000-times-faster-than-coronavirus

TORONTO – Public health officials in Toronto have confirmed its first 50,000 cases of being a misinformed nitwit as xenophobic conspiracy theories and tales of false cures continue to spread across social media.

“Becoming a complete moron during an infectious disease outbreak is far more viral than we first thought,” said Dr. Jeanne Smith of Toronto Public Health. “Fact resistance is abnormally high especially among the dullard population, and the bottom 5% of your graduating high school class.”
