So the linked article about 16 weeks from sequencing to human trials

They started those earlier this week, end of last week.

Counting back 16 weeks gets us to November 25 2019.

When was the first case suppoedly in China again? When were the alarm bells being sounded?

Mark me down for one who doesn’t give a flying crap what people call the virus. You wanna call it the ChinaVi, The Chinese Flu, The Chinese Grandma Killer, go for it.

The American public thinks it is a good idea not to put any monetary cap on saving someone’s life, they aren’t that bright.

Bats cause coronavirus as your link stated (aren’t you supposed to summarize it?)

However, bat soup doesn’t cause coronavirus.

Having said that, there’s one good thing coming out of this for animals in China. Apparenlty “wildlife markets” are going to be on the outs in China.

Or people will start ignoring them. I can see a road out my front window, traffic is starting to pick up already around here.

The problem are the live animals at the market, not the ones in the soup.

Exactly, nothing silly about POTUS continuing to be the leading spoke person for everything us…

You mean I shouldn’t store my chicken cage on a ferret cage in a pigpen the goat likes to eat out of?

What the hell do you think we have now?

A few hard years to restore a better economy than we’ve ever seen and never again being in this position would absolutely be worth it. Those not willing to make the necessary sacrifices are of course free to leave.

I’d even support having the gov’t provide transportation.

How many millions sacrificed far more to build this Nation ?

Not to anyone with open eyes who cares about this country.

You folks gave up your last grain of outrage credibility when you turned :ok_hand: into a racist symbol so spare us the race baiting bs

It’s fine till you milk the goat😀

I’ve never seen so many medical experts on transmittable diseases as the posters complaining about what we should have done when because a graph tells them now everything they needed to know then.
And in the real world, the WHO was not declaring this a world health emergency at least as late as January 27. BTW, the WHO was opposed to closing off travel from China because of the damage it might do to the economy and the stigma it could cause.

Whereas our experts can look at a graph of what did happen and tell us they could tell from the statistics as to what would necessarily happen, the real experts were looking at a lot of factors concerning the incubation period and nature of the disease and did not know what might happen at that time.
For what was really known at the time, its best to look at what the real experts were looking at and considering at the time, not what our current graph readers can look at what did happen and now tell us they could have predicted it, though they did no such thing at the time.

You have now shown how mindless hate turns into delusional disorder.

Note the smile he,'s trying his best to hide while trying not to split his side’s open choking back laughter.

Utterly delusional.

Oh no, were you’re not watching the presser? When POTUS mentioned “The Deep State Department” it was just a joke. LOL. Maybe it went over your head?

Five star post!

The 1918 pandemic occurred for the exact same reason.

Because the countries at war didn’t want any bad news getting out.

Just like China didn’t want any bad news getting out.

Your insane desire to believe that we’re more moral than everybody is absolute insanity.

People have sucked since the dawn of time. It’s really time to stop pretending otherwise.

Pure bs. It happened because there was no understanding of viral epidemiology and the horrendous living conditions.

You are just lashing out in anger because you have been wrong at every step of this crisis.
