Imagine media is taking some direction from the Federal Government.

You might recall, all media went way overboard on Ebola in 2014. CNN is like a dog with a bone when it comes to stuff like this.

They all got the message. All but Hannity who saw the political opportunity leading into the midterms. He paraded obscure “ experts who speculated as if it were fact, including that it had mutated to airborne and could be transmitted without being symptomatic. He hammered Obama for not stopping flights from the 3 countries impacted- never mind there were no direct flights. All connected through Europe.

The day after the midterms, Hannity announced he would no longer cover Ebola.

107 deaths yesterday.

106 today.

I'm going to assume it's morphed into a zombie type illness and we are now in Walking Dead territory.
Wuhan population is 11 million.

Has anyone from any country other than China died of this virus?

No, I do not believe so. But the 3 year old in CA is not doing well and is intubated.

On the positive side China has agreed to let the WHO assist in their country.... on the bad side... I don't think China has ever agreed to that before.

CDC does not have effectiveness estimates for the 2019/20 season, yet.

Effectiveness in past years ranged from 40-60%, meaning vaccinated people are half as likely to get sick as unvaccinated people.

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/season/faq-f...-2019-2020.htm
That is when it is a good match and half means your odds go from 5% to 20% down to 2.5% to 10%.

Great.

My county in Indiana has a suspected case or coronavirus.

I'm going to die.

Bye y'all.

There have been less than a 1/2 dozen deaths in spite of hundreds of cases outside of Hubei province and none outside of China. Seems odd.
