CDC Director,Dr. Robert Redfield, says to prepare for coronavirus to become widespread in America

“So far we’ve been able to contain it, but I think this virus is probably with us beyond this year, and I think that eventually the virus will find a foothold and we will have community based transmission, and you can start to think of it in a sense like seasonal flu, the only difference is we don’t understand this virus.”

“Right now there’s no evidence to me at all that this outbreak is under control, it’s definitely not controlled, and the sooner we can help [China] get it under control, the better for the whole world.”

“Our whole issue right now is as I said, aggressive containment to try to give us more time, it’s gonna take one to two years to get that [vaccine] developed and out, to prepare the health systems, to be able to be flexible enough to deal with the potential second major cause of respiratory illness…”

    I see a fudging of figures and another round of forced vaccinations...

      They'll pump this up in the media to justify forced vax, yes. Nobody except me will say, "Hey, wait a minute. This has killed less than 10% what the regular seasonal flu kills in America." Won't matter. There's money to be made on bullshit.

        I think you're right. Anything to get more victims.
        (My business partner's daughter is insisting that he get a flu shot before visiting his newborn grandchild. He never gets sick under normal conditions.)

          I guess there would be a grandchild I would have to wait to see. I haven't had a cold in over 40 years and NOBODY sticks a needle in me unless it is an absolute must.

            She's asking him to come visit to help her with the baby while she has some meetings (at the college where she is a prof in Family Therapy.) Guess that's the purpose of grandparents to young mothers these days.
            Glad I have never needed family therapy (from someone who is so skilled.)

              A few angles to this sub-story-
              - a person can be a carrier without having symptoms, babies cannot be vaccinated so a carrier is a deadly threat.
              - the mother has prime responsibility, even if wrong.
              - parents have always used grandparents, mainly the grandmother, for childcare. Women live longer than men, the woman past child bearing age has an essential function in child care, evolution has selected women for long life as it gives survival advantage to the grandchildren. Men who could no longer fight and hunt were of no value.
              If commercial childcare becomes more popular, in a thousand years we will see the age difference vanish.

                A person can be a carrier even after vaccination unless they are very careful with where they put their hands.
                Yes, grandparents have been a great help to parents in the past especially when mothers had several children to care for. A mother who thinks going back to work (5 weeks after giving birth) is more important than her only child doesn't get my personal approval (especially when the father is making far more in his business than is needed to support the family.) Demanding that the grandfather risk his health so she can go to work further reduces my opinion of the mother.

                  Good points.
                  Suppose you can identify two threats. Do not choose but eliminate both.

                  Those who are against vaccination may like this recent article-
                  childrenshealthdefense.org/news/vacci...
                  My opinion fwiiw- I think that org goes in for very selective searching rather than evaluation of all evidence.

                    I have worked in healthcare for many years now. I'll make is simple. If the government is used to mandate a health treatment, run away.

                    I was contacted by the organization in that link once, asked to assist with something. It was interesting. RK Jr. understands things quite clearly...

    Anthony Fauci (who is more of a politician, than a scientist considering his past activities at the NIH), thinks the potential is there that this virus will casue a pandemic:

    Well, sailing around the world in a closed incubator of the virus like a cruise ship is a good way to spread it.

    There are controversial hearsays: some says the spread is decreasing in China, but there have been deaths in France, which can be expected since in the past few weeks people who were infected moved around.

    I am a veterinarian who holds most vaccine companies in contempt. Back in the day of the canine Parvo epidemic (which was real and many dogs died) vaccine companies made a ton of money producing the vaccine. When the hysteria died down and the epidemic was controlled and sales dropped the vaccine companies decided to create new hysteria by promoting a corona vaccine for dogs (not the same as humans but close) and a calici vaccine for cats. Both of these diseases are minor but to listen to the companies they will kill everything in site. The calici vaccine results in massive side effects in cats that are worse than the disease. As for me, I get vaccinated when I can remember it but I have a real sh**ty memory.

    Government will fail at stopping this disease. Individuals are far more powerful and effective by keeping their immune systems up to par, staying away from crowds of sneezing people, eating right, getting rest, and washing hands.

    First, I think this is interesting.
    Unlike SARS, they are NOT scare mongering everyone.
    Unlike SARS, this thing is killing more people, and spreads WAY WAY faster.

    those two facts don't jive for me. Something is afoot.

    Keeping people on a Cruise ship with a start of a contagious outbreak... SOMEONE should be SUED. They should have evacuated and quarantined IMMEDIATELY. Think about it. If ONE cabin had it, the STAFF who touch everything will QUICKLY spread it to other cabins. AS HAPPENED.

    Worse, you walk down the hall and you TOUCH the wall for balance... Bam... OMG this was stupid.

    The R0 is quite high, and THIS video points to the fact that this virus has GAINED FUNCTION at least 4 times, without giving up function... Which could IMPLY a man-made variant.

      By the time its over on that quarantined cruise ship, nearly all the passengers will get the disease. STUPID idea to stick all the people together in a confined space with some of them sick. Eventually all will be sick.

    As far as I have discerned from the news, quarantine is being practiced and even the people being flown here from China have been quarantined (or re-quarantined.) So that should keep it from spreading.
