CDC BUSTED FOR FAILING TO TEST.. ONLY 1,895 PEOPLE TESTED FOR COVID-19 FIRST 3 MONTHS. WHY?

FIRST SOME GOOD NEWS: BOTH CHINA AND SOUTH KOREA REPORT A SHARP DECLINE IN NEW CASES AND A RISE IN RECOVERED CASES.

UPI REPORTED THIS GOOD NEWS ABOUT CHINA ON MARCH 9. 


AP REPORTED ON SOUTH KOREA'S DECLINE TODAY. 

WHY ISN'T U.S. MAINSTREAM MEDIA REJOICING WITH BOLD-TYPE HEADLINES?



Above is a photo an emergency room patient in Hawaii took of the assessment of his visit to E.R., noting that he met all but ONE of the FIVE criteria CDC demands be met before they test anyone for COVID-19.

According to U.S. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii), "He was told that because he doesn't have a fever, even though he's been exposed and is sick and has traveled to identified countries, he doesn't meet the criteria to get tested. His elderly mother in law and 5 children live in his house and are at risk if he's positive."

And that is one way you spread a virus, America. REFUSE to test people for it. 
North Carolina has 300 test kits and 100 counties. The state gave three to Mecklenburg County, a county with a population of a million or so people.

CORONAVIRUS CASES TESTED IN U.S. REMOVED FROM CDC WEBSITE, ACCORDING TO CONGRESSMAN: 'AMERICAN PEOPLE DESERVE ANSWERS.'
NEWSWEEK: 

"This is unacceptable.I just sent a letter to
@CDCDirector demanding answers to why their website removed public data on the number of patients tested in the United States. The American people deserve answers."

"Inexplicably, today (MAR.2, 2020), the CDC's public webpage dedicated to COVID-19 data no longer displays how many persons have been tested for, or who have died from COVID-19. I would like to know why," Mark Pocan, who serves Wisconsin's Second District, wrote to director of the CDC Dr. Robert Redfield on Monday.  

BELOW IS A SCREENSHOT OF THE CDC PAGE ON MARCH 1 AND ON MARCH 2. YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE 


Sanjaya Senanayake, professor of infectious diseases at the Australian National University told Newsweek: "The stopping of publishing those figures is surprising, but perhaps there is a good reason for it."

"During an outbreak of this scale where the general populace is worried, it is really important for governments to make the people feel that they are being kept abreast of various aspects of the outbreak, especially pertaining to their own country. So it is a good idea for a government to give as much information as it feels it responsibly can."

Senanayake added: "This will help maintain a trusting relationship with the public which will be very important if the outbreak gets worse, so as to minimize panic while keeping the public informed with information that they feel is reliable."  The CDC did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Newsweek."

Coronavirus update: Italian tourist in Rajasthan tests positive for COVID-19

AMERICA IS NOT TESTING FOR COVID-19 AS IT SHOULD.
WHY NOT?

FEWER THAN 2,000 ACTUAL COMPLETED TESTS WERE FOUND BY 'THE ATLANTIC', LESS THAN HALF WERE PERFORMED BY CDC.

ALL STATES ARE REPORTING A LACK OF TESTING AND ARE COMPLAINING OF THE CDC RESTRICTIONS ON WHOM CAN BE TESTED.
IT'S NO WAY TO STOP THIS VIRUS!

Alex Michael Azar II, the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, told ABC News Sunday, March 1, 2020 that  there are 75,000 virus test kits in the United States, but that number will "radically" increase in the next couple of weeks.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Is it time for -- for broader surveillance, testing in communities, taking in people who may not be showing symptoms?

AZAR: Well, right now it's important that we test people who have any type of respiratory illness -- respiratory symptoms that is unidentified. And that's why we -- we, a week ago had -- or actually a week-and-a-half ago expanded to six key cities -- Seattle, San Francisco, L.A., Honolulu, Chicago, and New York -- that if anyone's tested for flu, they also will be tested for novel coronavirus. That is a key part of our emergency supplementals.

THAT'S SIMPLY NOT TRUE, AS PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE  AND CURRENT U.S. REPRESENTATIVE FROM HAWAII TULSI GABBARD POINTED OUT. 
"My friend is sick, has had contact with someone who tested positive for
COVID-19.
He's at Urgent Care Hawaii to get tested & was rejected, saying he doesn't
meet the criteria. In the hour he's been there, three other sick people
were turned away,"
Gabbard tweeted on Friday afternoon, MARCH 13, 2020.
In her post, she tagged the social media accounts for the Hawaii government, the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA).
She also ended the tweet by seemingly asking Hawaii Governor David Ige for an
explanation, writing: "Gov. Ige??"
FDA MANAGED TO STEP IN AND HELP CDC LOCATE MORE AND BETTER TEST KITS. The Food and Drug Administration also has expanded access to private, commercially-manufactured tests so hospitals and doctors can more quickly access tests.

Because these tests are authorized by the FDA, the CDC does not confirm positive results from these commercial tests.

THAT'S LUDICROUS THAT CDC WON'T CONFIRM ANY TEST RESULTS NOT USING THE CDC's VERY OWN KIT! 

WHY WOULD CDC DO THAT?


A COMPANY HERE IN THE U.S. MANUFACTURES RAPID RESULTS KITS AND EXPORTS THEM GLOBALLY. 

"A Cincinnati company’s stock price skyrockets on news of Coronavirus outbreak."
     

THIS WAS ON JANUARY 28, 2020...A READY-TO-GO, MADE IN AMERICA, QUICK LAB TEST HAS BEEN AROUND FOR A FEW YEARS NOW, BUT CDC CHOSE TO DEVELOP ITS OWN, WHICH WAS FLAWED?

"The stock price of Newtown-based Meridian Bioscience was up 40 percent at one point in public trading Monday.

The reason? A product called Lyo-Ready 1-Step RtaPCR Mix.

In layman’s terms, the mix is a screening kit for Coronavirus. But it’s not just that — it’s a screening kit that’s faster and cheaper than most of its competitors.

Meridian China General Manager Liang Zhang, MD, said in the release. “This means that patients can be screened very quickly to help stop the spread of this virus.”

What does that mean? Zhang continues, it means patients can be screened quickly, which in turn can slow the spread of the disease.

On Thursday, March 5th, Vice President Mike Pence said the U.S. did not have enough tests "to meet what we anticipate will be the demand going forward."

For those that we believe have been exposed, for those who are showing symptoms, we’ve been able to provide the testing,” Pence said, adding that there’s roughly about a million and a half tests currently going out to hospitals. 

Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) asked for an explanation as to why the U.S. is not using a World Health Organization (WHO) test and an estimate on how many patients will be able to receive testing in the near future.

The senator’s state of Washington has been hit hardest by the outbreak in the U.S. At least 10 deaths have been reported in the Seattle area, with at least 70 others infected.
Murray also leads the Senate health committee.

COVID-19 Coronavirus - Update: Last updated: 2020-03-14


WHAT IF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID-19 AND YET FEW DIED IN COMPARISON?

THAT WOULD END THE GLOBAL PANIC, WOULDN'T IT?

WHAT IF THERE WAS 19 TIMES THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE INFECTED BUT STILL LOW DEATH RATES?

THE FACT THAT CDC STOPPED PUBLISHING THE NUMBER OF NEGATIVE TESTS, THAT CDC REFUSES TO SHARE THE STATISTICS FROM U.S. STATES PUBLICLY SIGNIFIES THAT, JUST LIKE ZIKA, THE DANGER OF DYING FROM CORONAVIRUS IS QUITE LOW.

INITIAL CDC ESTIMATES PUT THE RISK AT BETWEEN 0.01% AND 1%, GLOBALLY. THAT'S NOW SUDDENLY GROWN TO 3.4%.

OF ALL NEWS MEDIA, THE ATLANTIC FINALLY FIGURED THIS OUT...ALMOST...AND DID SOME GOOD INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM THAT EXPOSES THE CDC AS AN AGENCY ENGAGED IN YET ANOTHER FEAR-MONGERING FRAUD.

BY DIVING DEEPER INTO THE SCENARIO OF "PANDEMIC", THE ATLANTIC UNWITTINGLY ALSO EXPOSED MAINSTREAM MEDIA AS A COMPANION IN MISINFORMATION CRIME TO KEEP THE FACTS OUT OF THEIR MAINSTREAM HYPE.

AMERICA NOW HAS ABOUT A MILLION COVID-19 TEST KITS BUT DAMNED FEW ARE BEING TESTED.
WHY?

Some coronavirus test kits shipped to states are not working as expected, the CDC says - KRDO

"The COVID-19 test kit could have been in use earlier if the CDC had used one initially developed by the World Health Organization. Instead, the CDC raced to develop its own. (SO THE CDC COULD CONTROL RESULTS?) 


The CDC initially chose to develop its own test based on genetic sequencing of the coronavirus initially reported by scientists in China, where the outbreak was first detected. The test measured tiny DNA samples to confirm whether a person is infected with novel coronavirus, or COVID-19. But soon after the tests were shipped in early February, states had trouble validating one of three components in the CDC’s test kits. States could not confirm the test results. The flaw delayed rapid testing among state and local labs, just as the deadly respiratory virus gained a foothold among infected travelers returning to the United States.

The CDC reviewed the glitch and concluded using two components could accurately detect coronavirus. The CDC began making kits with two components and sharing those kits with states and local public health laboratories." 



STOCKS FOR TEST KITS HAVE SKYROCKETED AND THE KITS WERE ALREADY AVAILABLE FROM A U.S. MANUFACTURER! 

CDC RECENTLY CONFIRMED JUST OVER 500 TESTS PERFORMED N U.S. CITIZENS, WHILE THE ATLANTIC CONFIRMED 1,875.

WHY SO FEW? 

BECAUSE BOTH NEGATIVE TESTS AND POSITIVE TESTS WOULD SHOW CLEARLY THAT THE DEATH RATE FOR CORONAVIRUS IS NO WORSE THAN FOR COMMON FLU, SOMETHING THAT WAS INITIALLY STATED IN LEADING NEWS MEDIA AROUND THE WORLD?

LET'S LOOK AT WHAT THE ATLANTIC HAS EXPOSED.

AS OF THIS WEEK, THERE WERE ABOUT 128,000 CASES OF CORONAVIRUS REPORTED WORLDWIDE.
THOSE WERE ALL DIAGNOSED BY POSITIVE TESTS.

GLOBAL DEATH TOLL FOR THOSE WHO WERE DIAGNOSED WITH COVID-19 IS NEARING 4,700.

SURE, THAT LOOKS WORSE THAN NORMAL FLU, BUT IS IT?
NO!

NO, BECAUSE, FOR WHATEVER REASON, THE U.S. AND OTHER NATIONS ARE NOT TESTING BROADLY.
IN MANY CASES, EVEN THOSE WITH "MODERATE SYMPTOMS" ARE NOT GETTING THE TEST UNLESS THEY GO T HOSPITALS AND SOMETIMES NOT EVEN THEN!
 

“The CDC got this right with H1N1 and Zika, and produced huge quantities of test kits that went around the country,” Thomas Frieden, the director of the CDC from 2009 to 2017, told us. “I don’t know what went wrong this time.”

NOTHING WENT WRONG; IT'S JUST THAT CDC WANTED A PANDEMIC AND NOW WE HAVE  ONE.
CDC AND W.H.O. HAVE DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES IN THE PAST.

SEE FOR EXAMPLE:

Why Zika Is This Year's Scary Virus BY NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC. 

The Zika Fraud Is Just Another Pharma Scare   


THEN THERE WAS THE "HORRIBLE" SWINE FLU SCARE, AND NOW THAT SAME H1N1 IS CONSIDERED OUR "NORMAL FLU STRAIN" AND NO MORE PANIC.

UK MEDIA WAS CHARGED WITH OVER-HYPE ON THAT ONE.

"Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, head of health at the Council of Europe, accused the makers of flu drugs and vaccines of influencing the World Health Organisation's decision to declare a pandemic.

The 'atmosphere of panic' led to governments stockpiling the anti-flu drug Tamiflu and putting in place 'sleeping contracts' for millions of doses of vaccine.

Dr Wodarg said: 'The governments have sealed contracts with vaccine producers where they secure orders in advance and take upon themselves almost all the responsibility.

'In this way the producers of vaccines are sure of enormous gains without having any financial risks.

'So they just wait, until WHO says "pandemic" and activate the contracts.'

AND THE AVIAN FLU, REMEMBER THAT SCARE?

The case of “the impending pandemic of the Avian Flu” might as well have been a fictional mini-series made for television, but as usual, reality is stranger than fiction. It would be hard to make up a story as filled with greed and political corruption as this one.


IF THE CDC TESTED HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OR MILLIONS OF AMERICANS AND FOUND TENS OF THOUSANDS POSITIVE RESULTS, BUT ONLY A RELATIVE HANDFUL DIED, THERE'D BE NO SCARY, HYSTERICAL PANDEMIC HEADLINES. 


THE ATLANTIC ARTICLE: 

"Normally, the job of gathering these types of data in the U.S. would be left to epidemiologists at the CDC. The agency regularly collects and publishes positive and negative test results for several pathogens, including multiple types of the seasonal flu. But earlier this week, the agency announced that it would stop publishing negative results for the coronavirus, an extraordinary step that essentially keeps Americans from knowing how many people have been tested overall. 

Then, last night, the CDC resumed reporting the number of tests that the agency itself has completed, but did not include testing by state public-health departments or other laboratories. Asked to respond to our own tally and reporting, the CDC directed us to Messonnier’s statement from Tuesday.

Our reporting found that disorder has followed the CDC’s decision not to publish state data. Messonnier’s statement itself implies that, as highly populous states like California increase their own testing, the number of people the CDC reports as having been tested and the actual number of people tested will become ever more divergent.

The federal tally of positive cases is now also badly out of date.


Our reporting found that the capacity to test for the coronavirus varies dramatically—and sometimes dangerously—from state to state.

California claims the highest testing capacity of any state, and has tested the most individuals so far. As of yesterday afternoon, it had tested 516 people, with 53 positive cases, a spokesperson for the Department of Health told us. The department now has the capacity to test 6,000 people every day, and it expects that capacity to expand to 7,400 people a day starting today, the spokesperson said.

Washington State, the site of the country’s largest outbreak thus far, can test roughly 1,000 people a day. The state health department’s laboratory can test 100 people a day; the rest of the testing is being done at the University of Washington’s Virology Lab. Officials have found 70 positive cases in Washington so far, though a genetic study has estimated that there may be hundreds of untested people who have COVID-19 in the greater Seattle area.

Oregon, situated between the California and Washington hot spots, can test only about 40 people a day. Texas has 16 positive cases, according to media reports, but the health department’s website still lists only three cases. The Texas Tribune has reported that the state can test approximately 30 people a day.

Other states can test even fewer. Hawaii can test fewer than 20 people a day, though it could double that number in an emergency, an official told us. Iowa has supplies to test about 500 patients a day. Arkansas, though not near a current known outbreak, is able to test only four or five patients a day.

New York can test 100 to 200 people a day. Neighboring New Jersey and Connecticut have not shared any information about how many tests they have run, or about their daily testing capacity.

Pennsylvania can test only about a dozen people a day, and Delaware can test about 50 people, our survey found. An official in Massachusetts, where two of 20 tests have come back positive, said that she did not know the Bay State’s daily capacity, but that its health department “currently [has] an adequate supply of test kits.”

Currently, most labs require two specimens to test one person. Single-specimen testing capability is being developed, but right now the top-line number of available tests should be cut in half. In other words, “1.5 million tests” should be able to test roughly 750,000 people.

Some states, such as Colorado, told us how many specimens they could test a day (160), not how many patients (about 80). Other states shared the number of patients they could test, but not the number of specimens.

Through interviews with dozens of public-health officials and a survey of local data from
across the country, The Atlantic could only verify that 1,895 people have been tested for the coronavirus in the United States, about 10 percent of whom have tested positive. And while the American capacity to test for the coronavirus has ramped up significantly over the past few days, local officials can still test only several thousand people a day, not the tens or hundreds of thousands indicated by the White House’s promises.

LET'S LOOK AT THAT.
THE TESTING CAPABILITY IS CURRENTLY AT "SEVERAL THOUSAND PER DAY", PER DAY, BUT ONLY 1,875 HAVE BEEN TESTED IN 3 MONTHS?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

THE WHITE HOUSE CAN NEITHER FORCE TESTING NOR FORCE RELEASE OF RESULTS TO THE PUBLIC, CAN IT?
IF IT CAN, MAYBE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT TRUMP SHOULD DO.

ONLY 1,895 PEOPLE TESTED IN AMERICA.
1,201 CASES REPORTED IN AMERICA AS OF TODAY, MARCH 13-14, 2020.


Of those cases in the U.S. (pictured above), at least 48 were diagnosed in individuals who were repatriated to the United States on government charter flights from Wuhan, China, and from the Diamond Princess cruise ship.

33 HAVE DIED:
 MOSTLY ELDERLY WHERE AN "OUTBREAK" IN ONE WASHINGTON STATE NURSING HOME IS UNDER INVESTIGATION.
MOST OF THESE ELDERLY HAD OTHER PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS THAT MADE THEM MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO SUCCUMBING TO ANY VIRUS.

Despite the growing number of lab-confirmed COVID-19 cases in the U.S., the figures pale in comparison, for instance, to the seasonal flu, which kills an estimated 12,000 to 61,000 people per year and affects between 9 million and 45 million people in this country alone, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

WHY DID THE CDC STOP REPORTING RESULTS? 

THE ATLANTIC: "Throughout February, the CDC published a regular tally of Americans who had been tested for the pathogen. Last Saturday, several days after the country’s first case of community transmission was confirmed, that figure was 472.

Then the agency stopped updating the tally. It did not publish new numbers of how many Americans had been tested for the virus on Sunday or Monday, as public criticism of the sluggish response to the disease began to mount. On Tuesday, it announced that it would stop publishing the figure altogether.

Our reporting has found that the CDC has not made good on Messonnier’s assurance that state numbers would be available and up to date."


As of March 13 2020, 32,771 people have been tested in the UK, of which 31,973 were confirmed negative and 798 were confirmed as positive.
  Ten patients in the UK who tested positive for COVID-19 have died, all of them were aged over 60 and had underlying health issues.

The worst European outbreak is currently in Italy, where more than 15,000 people have been diagnosed and 1,016 have died. The  severity of the country's outbreak means it has been put into lockdown.


BUT THE U.S. HAS TESTED FEWER THAN 2,000!
DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, DOES IT?

AN EXAMPLE:

Q:
"Should I be testing all patients for COVID-19?

A: Clinicians should base their decisions on whether a patient should be tested for COVID-19 on:
-Signs and symptoms,
-Local epidemiology, and
-If the patient has had close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 patient or a history of travel from an area with sustained transmission within 14 days of symptom onset.

WHY NOT JUST TEST ANY WHO SEE A DOCTOR AND HAVE SYMPTOMS , TEST THOSE WHO WANT TO BE TESTED AFTER POSSIBLE EXPOSURE?

TOO LOGICAL?
OR TOO REVEALING?

THESE ARE THE SAME GUYS WHO GAVE SADDAM HUSSEIN BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS SAMPLES. 

"A letter written in 1995 by former CDC Director David Satcher to former Senator Donald W. Riegle, Jr., points out that the U.S. Government provided nearly two dozen viral and bacterial samples to Iraqi scientists in 1985--samples that included the plague, botulism, and anthrax, among other deadly diseases. According to the letter from Dr. Satcher to former Senator Donald Riegle, many of the materials were hand carried by an Iraqi scientist to Iraq after he had spent 3 months training in the CDC laboratory.


The American people need the truth. The American people need to know whether the United States is in large part responsible for the very Iraqi weapons of mass destruction which the administration now seeks to destroy. We may very well have created the monster that we seek to eliminate. The Senate deserves to know the whole story. The American people deserve answers to the whole story."  

AS WASHINGTON POST REPORTED:

"The story of U.S. involvement with Saddam Hussein in the years before his 1990 attack on Kuwait -- which included large-scale intelligence sharing, supply of cluster bombs through a Chilean front company, and facilitating Iraq's acquisition of chemical and biological precursors -- is a topical example of the underside of U.S. foreign policy. It is a world in which deals can be struck with dictators, human rights violations sometimes overlooked, and accommodations made with arms proliferators, all on the principle that the "enemy of my enemy is my friend."

SEE ALSO: How Reagan Armed Saddam with Chemical Weapons

"Not only did Ronald Reagan’s Washington turn a blind-eye to the Hussein regime’s repeated use of chemical weapons against Iranian soldiers and Iraq’s Kurdish minority, but the US helped Iraq develop its chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs."


THESE ARE THE SAME GUYS WHO KEEP "LOSING" SAMPLES, KEEP SENDING SAMPLES TO THE WRONG LABS, KEEP SENDING SAMPLES THROUGH NORMAL  MAIL ROUTES, ETC. 

Lost vials of smallpox found in abandoned NIH closet - UPI

BETHESDA, Md., July 8,2014  (UPI)
-- "Don't worry guys, we found the missing smallpox vials.""According to the NIH, several scientists came upon three vials of smallpox left over from the 1950s.
Though it's been sitting in a storage closet for more than 50 years, experts say the vials could still hold a potent virus.

The CDC says there's no evidence that the stash of variola vials was leaked, and that there is no risk to public health.

Believed to have emerged around 10,000 BCE, the viral disease has killed millions over the course of history. The disease killed roughly half a million Europeans annually during the latter stages of the 18th century. Successful immunization programs eradicated the disease entirely by 1979.

Technically, the vials are in violation of an international bioterrorism law that says only a lab at the CDC's Atlanta headquarters and a lab at the VECTOR Institute in Russia are allowed to host strains of smallpox."


CORONAVIRUS HAS BEEN "STUDIED" IN THE U.S. FOR YEARS.
WE'VE HAD MANY LABS WITH "SAMPLES". 


Scientists were close to a coronavirus vaccine years ago. Then the money dried up.

Dr. Peter Hotez says he made the pitch to anyone who would listen. After years of research, his team of scientists in Texas had helped develop a vaccine to protect against a deadly strain of coronavirus. Now they needed money to begin testing it in humans.

Instead, the SARS vaccine that Hotez's team created in collaboration with scientists at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston is sitting in a freezer, no closer to commercial production than it was four years ago.

"We could have had this ready to go and been testing the vaccine's efficacy at the start of this new outbreak in China," said Hotez, who believes the vaccine could provide cross-protection against the new coronavirus."

ARE YOU BEGINNING TO SEE A PATTERN, AMERICA?
WHY DIDN'T ANYONE WANT A CORONAVIRUS VACCINE YEARS AGO?

1- GO OUT AND FIND VIRUSES.
2- WEAPONIZE THEM.
3- SHARE SAMPLES WITH OTHER LABS.
4- OOPS! IT 'ESCAPED' OR 'SUDDENLY REAPPEARED SOMEWHERE'!
5- WE NEED A VACCINE.
6- MEDIA-HYPE THE LIVING HELL OUT OF IT.
7- GOVERNMENT FUNDING FOR A VACCINE.

RINSE.
REPEAT.


Before President Trump's national emergency declaration, Democrat Rep.
Tulsi Gabbard introduced her own resolution
calling for emergency universal
basic payment in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Her proposal includes
giving $1,000 per month to every American adult to help them "weather the
storm created by this crisis."
"The coronavirus pandemic has created a threat to the health and well-being
of the American people, as well as to our country's economic stability.
While some in Washington are focused on taking care of Wall Street, everyday
Americans get left behind. That's wrong," Gabbard said in a statement."

WHEN THERE IS NOTHING ON THE SHELVES,  NO GASOLINE, NOTHING
NEEDFUL LEFT TO BUY, WHAT GOOD WOULD $10,000 A MONTH DO? 
No milk, no bleach: Americans awake to coronavirus panic buying.

"In Union, New Jersey, a Target opened at 8 a.m. and had sold out of its full stock of milk and bottled water five minutes later.
In Austin, Texas, some gas station pumps ran dry.
Not a bottle of bleach could be found at a Home Depot in Fairfax, Virginia.

As dawn broke across the United States on Saturday, thousands of shoppers lined up outside supermarkets and grocery stores before they opened, eager for a chance to buy essentials that have flown off shelves as the country hunkers down to slow the spread of coronavirus.

“It’s crazy. People have gone crazy,” said Alexis Coppol, a Washington, D.C. resident who was shopping at Costco. “I mean, I’m not too worried, but if we get put on a lockdown I want to make sure I have food.”

Americans have been stocking up on goods for days.

[And toilet paper is now selling on eBay, the only place one can find it for sale, for $4.00- $200.00 PER  ROLL, or 4 rolls for $9.88 PLUS $55.15 shipping.]

IT'S RAMPING UP TO A CHAOTIC GLOBAL PANIC BASED ON MEDIA FEAR-MONGERING, MISINFORMATION, MASS HYSTERIA THAT IS FED DAILY AND WE JUST CAN'T IMAGINE HOW OR WHEN OR IF IT WILL END. 


MARTIAL LAW?
TRUMP HINTED AT THAT JUST TODAY.


MARCH 15, 2020, REUTERS

"U.S. death toll hits 65 from coronavirus, Fed cuts rate, NYC will shutter restaurants, bars, theaters.

With limited testing available, U.S. officials have recorded nearly 3,000 cases and 65 deaths, up from 58 on Saturday. Globally more than 162,000 are infected and over 6,000 have died.

Pence also said the government on Monday morning would issue updated federal guidelines, which he described as “broad-based recommendations for the American public.”Americans are waking up to a new reality as coronavirus spreads, with store shelves stripped bare of essentials, schools closed and millions of jobs in jeopardy as businesses temporarily shut their doors. New York City joined the nation’s other major public school systems in calling off classes starting this week."

THAT'S OUR SITUATION HERE IN AMERICA.

WHEREVER YOU ARE, I HOPE YOU WEATHER THIS SENSELESS STORM.

HOW IT ESCALATED TO THIS POINT GIVEN THAT SO FEW, GLOBALLY, HAVE BEEN INFECTED AND MUCH FEWER HAVE DIED OF COVID-19 THAN IN OUR 'NORMAL FLU SEASON" IS BEYOND MY UNDERSTANDING.

I HOPE YOU ARE ALL WELL AND STAY THAT WAY.

LAST REVIEWED IN 2011? WHY? WHY SO LONG AGO? 



--Early efforts to develop a SARS vaccine in animal trials were plagued by a phenomenon known as "vaccine-induced enhancement," in which recipients exhibit worse symptoms after being injected [with the potential vaccine] — something Dr.Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), said researchers must be mindful of as they work to quickly develop a vaccine to protect against COVID-19.

That kind of research — figuring out which vaccine strategies work and which don't — potentially could have been completed before the new outbreak, said Jason Schwartz, a professor at the Yale School of Public Health who studies vaccine development. He said the global response to the coronavirus exposes broader flaws in the way medical research is funded, which he says tends to be market-driven and reactive, rather than proactive.

--WUHAN-400?
Novel predicted China coronavirus outbreak 40 years ago?

The text in the picture reads that the virus was developed at a lab outside of the city of Wuhan, and it was the four-hundredth viable stain [sic] of man-made microorganism at the research center.   

In a strange coincidence, the novel mentions the existence of a research laboratory where the virus Wuhan-400 was developed, and in reality, there is the Wuhan Institute of Virology that studies the deadliest viruses, just 32 km away from the epicenter of current coronavirus outbreak.   


HAD KOONTZ TALKED WITH SOMEONE AT NIH, CDC?

IT'S CRAZY WHAT WE MAY NEVER KNOW, FOLKS. 


-- Arab media: Coronavirus a sinister U.S. plot

"From Ebola, zika, SARS, avian flu and swine flu, through anthrax and mad cow disease to the corona[virus] – [all these] deadly viruses were manufactured by the U.S. and threaten to annihilate the peoples of the world," Hussein Saqer, a columnist for the Syrian daily Al-Thawra wrote.


On the Egyptian news website Vetogate.com, journalist Ahmad Rif'at explained why the U.S. chose the Chinese city of Wuhan as the epicenter of the disease.

"American factories are the first to manufacture every kind of virus and bacteria, from the virulent smallpox virus and the bubonic plague virus to all the viruses we saw in the recent years, such as mad cow disease and swine flu," he wrote.

Rif'at claimed the biological "war is not only intended to worry China, trouble it and cause it to spend billions of dollars on emergency measures and medicines – which, by the way, will be manufactured by an Israeli company."


"The U.S. wants to inform the world, and especially China itself, as part of a propaganda war targeting [China's] prestige and status, that [China] is still a backward country whose citizens eat bat soup and which exports diseases and epidemics to the rest of the world!"WHO KNOWS?

  1. March 14, 2020: Why were so few people in Alabama tested for coronavirus?
    “One of the reasons we hadn’t had a positive case is because we haven’t run enough tests,” said Dr. Paul Goepfert, a physician and researcher at the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
    Alabama didn’t perform its first tests for the novel coronavirus until March 5, two days after the CDC approved widespread testing and more than a month after the first U.S. case of COVID-19 was reported.
    The Alabama Department of Public Health received its first batch of kits from the CDC in February, but federal health officials recalled the tests because they were unreliable.
    Initially, one of the main reasons so few Alabamians were tested was that criteria for who could be tested was narrow: those who had traveled internationally to a small number of specific countries, had close contact with a diagnosed patient or an underlying medical condition. Nobody else.
    Dr. Scott Harris, the state health officer for Alabama, said those guidelines simply reflected rules passed down from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
    “The U.S. as a whole has been slow to roll out testing,” Harris said. During several press conferences Harris told the public there were likely cases of COVID-19 in Alabama that weren’t being caught.
    “In a perfect world with unlimited resources, we would test every person every day,” he said.

    AGAIN, IT WAS A CDC FAILURE AND IT APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN INTENTIONAL.

  2. Readers have reached out to AL.com saying they were denied coronavirus tests despite having symptoms or coming into contact with people who’d traveled to infected areas.
    Patients showed up at the emergency room at Huntsville Hospital last week with symptoms like fever and coughing, asking to be tested for coronavirus, said Jeff Samz, the chief operating officer for the Huntsville Hospital Health System. But many of those patients didn’t meet the CDC’s criteria and were not tested. By Friday the hospital had sent around 23 tests to the state lab for testing.
    David Spillers, CEO at Huntsville Hospital Health System, said the hospital, like other hospitals around the state, was following CDC’s criteria for testing.
    Jeffery St. Clair, president and CEO of Springhill Medical Center in Mobile, said Friday that his hospital hadn’t had a patient yet that met the CDC criteria to be tested. Since criteria were relaxed, he said the medical staff has discussed new criteria.

    “While our new testing requirements aren’t as stringent as what the department of public health and the CDC had us prior to (Thursday), we still go through a lot of ruling out before we’ll order a test,” he said. “Ordering a COVID-19 test is not our first line of defense.”

    Alabama is on track to see a testing boom in the coming week, now that the state health department relaxed testing criteria.

    Friday afternoon, a long line of cars wrapped around the block at a drive-thru coronavirus testing site in Vestavia Hills, operated by the private Assurance Scientific Labs. The lab, which says it can test 10,000 samples a week, opened a second location in Bessemer.
    Hospitals like Huntsville Hospital are also trying to get certified to be able to process tests in-house, rather than sending them out to private labs or the state, cutting wait times for results down to just a few hours.
    “Testing is more accessible than it was four days ago,” Wise said. “But realistically, not everyone with symptoms will get tested.”

  3. Coronavirus evacuees in Alabama: What you need to know about FEMA’s Anniston facility.
    YES, FEMA IS ALREADY SET UP THERE WITH JUST 6 CASES OF COVID-19 REPORTED IN ALABAMA.
    WHY? FOR PATIENTS WHO TESTED POSITIVE ELSEWHERE.
    The plan announced Saturday by the Department of Health and Human Services includes housing American passengers evacuated from the Diamond Princess cruise ship at the Anniston facility.
    Some 300 Americans were evacuated from the cruise ship as it docked in Japan amid a coronavirus outbreak onboard. More than 3,700 passengers on board the ship were quarantined after testing positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus. Two passengers died.

    According to FEMA, the passengers who will stay at the CDP tested positive for COVID-19 although, at this time, either they do not have symptoms or have a mild flu-like illness. The Department of Defense has set aside military bases in California, Colorado and Texas to house evacuees during a 14-day quarantine. An unknown number of patients are expected to be transported to the Alabama facility next week and will stay in the existing dorms that are typically used to house first responders in the residential training program. In the event an evacuee becomes seriously ill, they will be transported to “pre-identified hospitals” for medical care, federal officials said. However, Calhoun County Emergency Management Agency said officials have not shared a plan related to transporting patients to a hospital.

  4. CDC CLAIMS LEGAL RIGHT TO QUARANTINE. YOU CANNOT REFUSE TO GO.
    CDC has the legal authority to detain any person who may have an infectious disease that is specified by Executive Order to be quarantinable. If necessary, CDC can deny ill persons with these diseases entry to the United States. CDC also can have them admitted to a hospital or confined to a home for a certain amount of time to prevent the spread of disease.

    HOW THE CDC HAS LAID OUT ITS "PLAN" FOR PANDEMICS.
