Is it any surprise that the city that started the virus was China's first biological study office?
Coincide with Chinese New Year, when lots of Chinese travel.

If you have a full body wrap. With duct tape to make airtight seals at the overlaps.

Duct tape will compromise the shinyness. Multi layers are used instead.
Who holds the patent on the virus and cure???

According to reports, China is rapidly completing one hospital with a 1,000 bed capacity, and they have started construction on three more hospitals.
That's just par for Socialist countries, though -- building hospitals at break-neck speed to take care of the people the government cares for so deeply. :rofl:
It has nothing whatsoever to do with a massive outbreak of a disease with a 5%+ fatality rate and no way to stop transmission. :shake:

Every few years, the media over hypes a virus/illness. Bird flu, swine flu, ebola, regular flu, etc...But the difference with this one is that I don't trust the numbers that China is claiming to be affected/dead.
Why would they build 1 of 3 hospitals in 24 hours if it wasn't that bad. Or why would they barricade the entire city off (walls do work I guess).

Heard reports on the radio something about the Chinese "central gov't" is blaming (or at least at odds) with the local gov't for downplaying the initial reports, concerns, etc. That now many surrounding areas are totally blocked off from the ground-zero area. That sort of reports made me wonder when the "central gov't" will order firebombing of the ground-zero area, ala Outbreak movie.

I heard reports this morning that this strain is worse than the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918 because it spreads easier for whatever the reason. They did not state that it was more deadly or not. I don't think it will be much of an issue here although it could be YUGE in China. Actually it some ways it already is. Quarantine measures are much better these days as well communications. We cut off flights to China early on and brought out all of our citizens from the area. Whoever made those command decisions did the right thing and did it early. Almost as if they care about the American people...
For those of you who don't know the history of the Spanish Flu pandemic. Over a 2 year period it affected about one third of the world's population or about 500 million people. And about 50 million worldwide died from it. Usually only the very young, the very old and the sickly are mostly affected by viruses like this.

Heard about a chartered flight to evacuate US citizens from China (I think Wuhan). That they would be flying into Alaska first, with a screening process there, and then onto Cali, where there will be another screening. Something about the Cali location was designated a while ago for this sort of evacuation and potential quarantine scenarios.

Was this the flight that was diverted to the Air Force Base?
Since China has no 1a, very little info is getting out via the internet or other sources. So it's hard to get more updates. Some stuff is getting out, but I'm sure by now their government pinged their IP address.

What you said is exactly why I doubt we will ever see another pandemic outbreak like the Spanish Flu. We are fairly prepared for something like this. The Chinese are reacting quickly but took their time before they started reacting. They waited to quarantine the area and worse they waited to report the outbreak. Therefore the problem will be larger than it had to be. It could devastate a third world country. Hell, it could devastate China because they waited so long to start doing something about it.
I heard on the radio today that the number the Chinese are reporting dead more than doubled since yesterday. And that they felt the Chinese were waaaaaaay under reporting the actual number of infected and the number who have died. They also said the Chinese might have taken way too long to quarantine a large enough area. But that will have to wait to be seen. If they start seeing infections outside the quarantined areas you know they waited too long.

I don't speak Chinese, so the subtitles could be wrong. He might be talking about how he is the best Xbox player in the country.
All jokes aside, hope everyone here prepares for if SHTF. Not only food and water, but like he mentioned, medicine and other daily essentials if you can't leave your home. What do you have to do if outside is no habitable? Sit tight and go off of your supplies and cross your fingers.

Sometimes I wonder if there are folks with similar "what if type" minds that write these SHTF books and movies (or maybe same people). Then there are shows like Criminal Minds, Law Abiding Citizen, etc where I think to myself "what kind of an asshole would think up things like that". But hopefully we have enough in the US who do contingency planning. We have a group that does that at work, but for more focused group and scenarios.
The part about devastating a smaller country probably isn't very far fetched. With the areas around Wuhan being pretty rural and poor (at least reports I heard mentioned that), with access to healthcare and stuff like quarantine responses being pretty much non-existent, I would envision things spreading pretty wide in that area with incubation period of days to a week (or more).

He seemed very authentic, until he started criticizing his country and asking overseas Chinese to spread the word of how bad the response of China's government is to the current epidemic. How will demonizing China help those who are suffering in Wuhan?
Why not ask overseas Chinese to send medical supplies to Wuhan instead?
No way of telling if he is truly from Wuhan or some ethnic Chinese stooge who has been paid-off to demonize China.

I have a better question. Why is he DEMONIZING China? Isn't that what you're doing to the USA on a regular basis?
I see him as CRITICIZING China. That's a more honest characterization.
Demonize:
to try to make someone or a group of people seem as if they are evil:
The Nazis used racist propaganda in an attempt to demonize the Jews.
He's not saying they are evil based on no evidence. He is saying there are conditions there that indicate the gov't, includng local gov't, is not being honest nor reacting to the crisis in a rational or serious manner. Gas stations are shut down, all trains are halted, hospitals can't provide needed services, emergency numbers are not answering due to the volume of calls, etc, etc.
Demonize? Hardly.
You think China can't produce or obtain supplies? That they need to rely on overseas donations? Please! Most of what the world buys is marked "Made in China." :rofl:

Just because many things are made in China, does not mean the government can simply grab what has been produced for export. They have to produce what they need on-top what is contractually promised to their foreign customers.
With that online poster, there is no evidence that he is even living in China or a Chinese national. With all the anti-Chinese rhetoric circulating online, it would be no surprise that he is just one of those people adding to the evil-China propaganda.

You have evidence he's NOT living in China? Without evidence to support your arguments, you cast doubt on the video because he, too, didn't present evidence to establish his credibility.
You are welcome to have the opinion that the video can't be trusted, but without evidence to support that opinion, you're in no better a position than the person who may be risking his freedom (or life) to put a video out about local conditions.

Visiting taiwan, now i understand why they love american action films. Taiwan action films suck. Shitty gun scenes and cgi. On par with low budget action films here.
Taiwan has more movies/shows that involve talking, like soaps and stuff.

There is no way to know how bad things are about to get because governments all over the world including ours find the first amendment concepts to be highly inconvenient especially when it comes to a free press. There is no reliable source for information to make sound decisions on. All we can do is follow our bio-emergency protocols (if we have them) and hope it blows over liked all the other ones so far.

I was at Costco last night, and I saw 2 guys walking behind a cart with 3 or 4 cases of Corona.
I almost "warned" them that they ought to have it tested for the virus, but they probably would not have gotten the joke. They didn't look like they are "up" on current events.

I watched this. While it is a bit compelling I was put off by some of the things they said and showed. For instance, the video stated that San Francisco will probably be the major epicenter of where the US will get this pandemic, when our China Syndrome/Fukushima Syndrome starts here in the US. This is certainly very possible. But the video also stated that they deserve it. This includes Nancy Pelosi and all the elites that live in “Commiefornia”. Sorry, but I don’t think anyone deserves this. Even Nancy Pelosi. The scene with “Death” standing on the Golden Gate Bridge being shown over and over again was quite melodramatic. They also kept playing the same shocking scenes over and over again. It was over dramatized and that made this more unbelievable than believable.
While I’m not saying this is not a serious threat. I agree that China is not being honest with the numbers. They have a serious problem on their hands. We here in the US have a serious threat on our hands. So far I see our government handling this appropriately. The problem I see is that our MSM outlets lie so much now I cannot rely on them to give accurate information about what is happening here in the US.
Is this a WMD that got loose from a China lab? Until we have proof, this sort of speculation does nothing more than scare people that are already susceptible to believing everything they are told.

Better yet, how many products are in everyone's homes marked "Made in China?"
We've had radioactive and lead-containing products pulled from store shelves. Who's to say what kinds of nasty germs have arrived here?
Ever see Outbreak with Dustin Hoffman? It's not just the products we have to be concerned with, but the ships' crews that transport the products as well as any animals the crews may have as pets.
Not a farfetched scenario, actually.

President Xi came out today and poured some cold water on the "this will be over soon" wishful thinking. They were supposed to open the Foxconn plants today but we will see that that actually means. Indications are this is a lot worse than what they are letting on, but on the bright side Trumps trade war might be over.

I am not surprised by the updated numbers from "intel". A close friend is part of the State of Hawaii health emergency response-something-or-other and while no immediate alarm locally, the general message to me was the whole situation is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Mostly because the spread to poorer countries in the region (Vietnam, Thailand, etc) that have little to no resources for this quickly escalating virus.

sold the rest of my AAPL last week
for some reason, still up since then
Cramer was screaming about the effects of the corona virus on tech stocks
and yahoo reporting that docks are slow since shipments from china haven't restarted after Chinese new year
and also a report about most of pharmaceuticals coming from china
even if the infection is confined to china, it will still have a huge effect on the world economy
something or someone is still propping up the stock market, but I sold all my mom's mutual funds in her IRAs today
not that cash is going to be any better in the zombie apocalypse...

If you quote yourself and then post something new to yourself, isn’t that like talking to yourself? Heads
While I have made a great deal of money in the stock markets over the long haul, I lost my nerve back in early 2008 and sold all of my stock. In hindsight that was a great move because I sold right before the crash. The problem is I never jumped back in and missed probably the greatest rally ever. I decided to invest in real estate instead. Slow and steady wins the race they say. But it sure would have been nice if I could have sped up the process. I played the market back in the early 2000’s. I started with a couple of grand and turned it into a pretty good size chunk in a matter of a year. But I’ll never do that again. Too much work and stress for what I made. But the excitement and adrenaline when I sold big was amazing. I’m happy with my financial position I have now. I’m getting ready to retire. Just could have done better.
You can never time the market perfectly. You probably jumped out too soon. But if I learned one thing from my time in the markets. Never second guess yourself. See my comments above. I constantly second guess myself. It’s not good for you. So take your profits and wait out the virus. Just be ready to jump back in when the time looks good. Find something safe to put your money in temporarily until this whole thing blows over. Just one word. If the virus does not become a pandemic here in the US. And if our markets are not terribly affected by China’s shut down, our markets are not going to crash. So be ready every day to make that call. :thumbsup:

Selling AAPL years and years ago was a big mistake but hindsight is 20/20. At the time AAPL was up and down and was performing well. I bought stock in the tech company I was working for.
My IRA’s are in cash and CD’s now that I’m close to retirement.
I’m not on bigger pockets but my nephew is. He is on there a lot. His name is JEB Brilliant. He invests in real estate in Indiana. He does flips and rentals mostly.

As I write this the markets are off their all time high this morning. But they are still up for the session. I got cold feet as I got closer to retirement to get back into the market. I think it was the uneasiness I felt from the Obama economy along with my forthcoming retirement. I was terrified of timing the market wrong and then end up like a lot of my friends whose 401K's and IRA's were at a loss at the time they wanted to retire because they didn't look ahead to their retirement date. I, on the other hand went waaaaaay overboard and went to cash/CD's far too soon. Stoopid, hindsight 20/20, regret..... :grrr:
I had $300 or $400 lying in a dormant account and bought the S&P 500 ETF and I am up well over 25% in a year or two. ;D
So far the market is not effected much by this virus. But if it breaks out and really becomes a pandemic all over I see the markets tanking. But that is just my own opinion. So far, as long as the bulk of the virus stays in China, the markets will mostly ignore it. Break out, or major companies become effected by China's slowing economy and the markets tank. I think the market is seriously watching this virus. One little breakout will affect it even if only for a day or week.
Meanwhile a 13th person has been quarantined here in the US.

I just switched financial guys and consolidated some of my old/stray accounts. I had a 401k from my previous job that I had rolled over. But then I started getting notices and invoices from it. I was super busy at the time and didn't pay much attention. There were a number of folks who had left the company prior to them being fully vested, so I was getting distributions of their non-vested balances. I should have been watching as the account had some awesome gains. Too bad the figures were in the thousands of dollars. . . :(

There is a monitor of the co2 levels being released by the crematoriums in Wuhan. The amount of gas it's expelling is no where near a 800 person death toll. But being run round the clock, Auschwitz style.

I had not heard about Foxconn but I heard they reopened 10% of the Tesla plant and Apple (I think).
So the couch cover I ordered is coming out of Shenzhen. Which is the same city that Foxconn is supposed to open in. 600 miles from Wuhan. As of yesterday, they were told to go back to work.

I am not surprised by the updated numbers from "intel". A close friend is part of the State of Hawaii health emergency response-something-or-other and while no immediate alarm locally, the general message to me was the whole situation is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Mostly because the spread to poorer countries in the region (Vietnam, Thailand, etc) that have little to no resources for this quickly escalating virus.
sounds like it's in NK too
it could spread like wildfire there...

I won't mention the company. But one of the company's I worked for here kept taking my 401K contributions out of my paycheck and did not deposit them into my 401K account. I found this out when my quarterly statement came in the mail. Now, mind you, there were 25 or 30 employees there and I called almost everyone and asked them if the company was doing the same thing to them. And you know what they told me? "I don't know." "How do I check?" Do you know that no one ever checked nor even seem to care. It was quite the coincidence that the entire owner's family (Approx. 12 people) also went on a big overseas vacation right before I figured it out. I wrote the owner a nasty e-mail and threatened to turn the company in to the AG if he didn't put the money back into my account ASAP. Which he didn't do ASAP. He did it in two or three payments. Which was obvious to me that big vacation was taken on my 401K money. I finally got all my money minus the earnings I would have had. I left right after I got all my money back. BTW, the total amount he owed me was $900. I can't tell you how angry I was.

Watching KHON2 this morning and they reported for 2 days in a row, the number of people/new cases have dropped. Take with a grain of salt.
Still keeping my order from China, Shenztsu Provence. Virus can only live for a few hours with no host. So item takes at least 2 weeks once in the box is sealed. But I'm still gonna lysol the shit out of it when it arrives. Rubber gloves and all.

that means a 33% increase in infected cases and almost 20% deaths in one day
and even if you take into account the "slowing" over the last day, it's still a huge increase over 2 days

What I have been worried about is something like this where the number of infections and deaths just keep accelerating. Significantly. If the numbers keep going up in large percentages like what you posted, then we might have a lot to worry about. It’s cases like this that makes me wish I had bought that missile silo when I had the chance.

An hour into the new market this morning and the market down. What is not surprising is by how much. It is down 0.35%. About a third of one percent. It was down about a half percent earlier. Not much of a selloff if you ask me. That means the new Coronavirus numbers are bad but not worrisome at this time.
News this morning is defending China’s under reporting of the virus. They are saying that they don’t have enough test kits to make certain that the diagnosis are accurate. The new higher numbers are due to China finally deciding to diagnose cases based on symptoms. They said we should start seeing bigger numbers coming out daily for a while until the number of test kits catches up with infections. They said reporting is about 100,000 less than actual. If you can believe what they are saying.
I think the US, and particular the Trump administration, has done a good job tracking and quarantining possible cases. With the number of US citizens that had travelled to China and then came back, we only have 14 verified cases. It seems that this virus spreads easier than SARS, but most cases are fairly mild. Except for the rather young and elderly.
Right before I click post the market has dropped to 0.56% from the opening.

The new diagnosis and classification makes sense on the reported cases. The rise in deaths still concerning. Heard a “health expert” on the radio this morning and he explained the typical evolution of a new infectious disease and trends and makes sense. At first, they don’t have the virus or agent identified, so general symptoms. Mild cases maybe previously not identified. Yadda yadda yadda.
In any case, sounds like it isn’t as lethal as some precision infections, but spreads faster/easier.

Also, on the radio this morning they were saying this is related to SARS. Much more easily transmitted but not as deadly. They also mentioned the swine flu/Spanish flu pandemic of the early 20th century. They mentioned that it was a couple of different viruses that had mutated that became the swine flu/Spanish flu pandemic. They were saying that it is possible for this virus to mutate to having the worst features of SARS and Corona. Meaning it becoming easier to spread with the deadly nature of the SARS. Not saying it is or is going to happen. It was just conjecture. It just makes everyone nervous when they put these types of thoughts into people's heads.
I also read this morning that NK has a big problem with Corona and they are not reporting it because their health system cannot deal with it. They have a very porous border with China and they report zero cases of Corona. Seems impossible to me. It is easier just to kill and burn bodies than actually trying to keep people alive. We'll see what the truth is someday.

NK already doesn't let anyone leave the country. So when they start to, is when we have to worry. Kind of like if HPD supports a bill that seems pro 2a. It probably isn't and has many downfalls (taser bill).

Possible exposures in Maui and Oahu with the visitor who tested positive when arriving back in Japan today.

I've read/seen the virus, or a variant, can also infect people through the ocular membrane. if that's true, then no respirator masks will stop it.
Chaolin Huang and colleagues reported the epidemiology, symptoms, and treatment of patients infected by the
2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) in Wuhan, China. As ophthalmologists, we believe that transmission of
2019-nCoV through the eyes was ignored.
On Jan 22, Guangfa Wang, a member of the national expert panel on pneumonia, reported that he was infected
by 2019-nCoV during the inspection in Wuhan. He wore an N95 mask but did not wear anything
to protect his eyes. Several days before the onset of pneumonia, Wang complained of redness of the eyes.
Unprotected exposure of the eyes to 2019-nCoV in the Wuhan Fever Clinic might have allowed the virus to infect
the body.

Luckily most viruses are transported in droplets sneezed or coughed out, not just floating in the air individually. No mask is perfect but it is worth the risk reduction
But It does not matter here, Ace hardware and HPM were all sold out Friday afternoon of every mask they had.
Now I have a full facemask with the p100's cartridges ready to go that have been in my prep stuff for a while. Even those are not 100% but it is so much better than the simple paper masks everyone in China is walking around with.

Yup. Corona virus is causing apple to reissue its guidance for the quarter. This was expected by the experts but now is official. Since Apple comprises a large percentage of the Dow it is dragging the Dow down today. Right now the Dow is down around 200 points or about two thirds of a percent. China is having a hard time allowing workers back to work without spreading the virus further.

This weekend the news reported that the corona virus has spread to Northern Italy. I guess they quarantined off 10 counties already. Also, Iran and some other countries are reporting cases. But the implication is that Italy, being part of the open border European Union, could be the gateway where a pandemic starts in Europe. Let’s hope they can contain it.
Due to this the market futures dropped almost 1,000 points. So, the market opened down 997 points! About 3.5%. It has since come back up about 150 points as I write this. So it is not in free fall but a big sell off and not a crash.
Apple dropped 5% or 6% this morning. It seems like Mac is looking pretty smart this morning for his temporary flight to cash. Be ready to jump back in and make some more money.
I thought things were stabilizing until the news this weekend. The outbreak in Italy has huge implications as Europe was the hardest hit in the last big worldwide pandemic.

US Markets headed down....
Yes the markets dropped a lot today. However, it remains to be seen how much exposure a lot of our companies actually have in China. Also, a lot of our companies are quite nimble and have either moved a lot of their manufacturing out of china, or are in the process, or could easily do so. I suspect retailers like Walmart might be hurt the worst but their stock didn’t take quite the hit that the rest of the market took today. Chip manufacturers and electronics manufacturers could take a huge hit since their manufacturing is harder to move to another country. Even Apple had already started building manufacturing plants in other countries. Travel and cruise stocks are dropping like rocks right now.
It still remains to be seen how big a hit we will take. But at the same time there are a lot of other countries in much worse shape than we are due to this. I heard this morning that an email from Amazon was leaked and they are scrambling to bring as much product from Asia (particularly China) over to the mainland and stockpile it for Prime Day which is coming up. So they should be able to supply customers without fear of running out. Other news I heard is that some companies that get parts from China are sending over employees with big suitcases to transport the parts they need directly from China in order to keep their supplies continuous. While Indonesia and Vietnam are increasing their manufacturing output.
I will say this, if China doesn’t contain the virus, and if it starts spreading throughout Europe the global economy will suffer greatly. And it will effect us to some extent. However, it could also work in our favor for selling what we already supply like oil. China is Iran’s biggest customer for oil. And Iran went from like 3 to 50 (or 150?) infections overnight. All their neighbors have closed their borders with Iran. And China has backed off on oil purchases causing oil prices to drop. Iran is in big trouble financially and could be even worse if they cannot contain the virus. But I think that works to our favor.
Financial news this morning also said the clothing industry here in the US will take a huge hit because most of the sportier type clothes like sweats and hoodies a t-shirts and such are made in China mostly. So if continued look for price gauging and eventually lack of stock. Once again, this is big news and it is bad news but our exposure generally speaking is not as bad off due to the Trump sanctions causing some companies to move away from China. Our exposure seems to not be so bad. And our economy is still strong despite the rest of the world. The big thing is how well the virus is contained in other countries. And eventually our country. So far no Pandemic but it could reach that level quickly. I think we have to just wait and see at this point.

Yes the markets dropped a lot today. However, it remains to be seen how much exposure a lot of our companies actually have in China. Also, a lot of our companies are quite nimble and have either moved a lot of their manufacturing out of china, or are in the process, or could easily do so. I suspect retailers like Walmart might be hurt the worst but their stock didn’t take quite the hit that the rest of the market took today. Chip manufacturers and electronics manufacturers could take a huge hit since their manufacturing is harder to move to another country. Even Apple had already started building manufacturing plants in other countries. Travel and cruise stocks are dropping like rocks right now.
It still remains to be seen how big a hit we will take. But at the same time there are a lot of other countries in much worse shape than we are due to this. I heard this morning that an email from Amazon was leaked and they are scrambling to bring as much product from Asia (particularly China) over to the mainland and stockpile it for Prime Day which is coming up. So they should be able to supply customers without fear of running out. Other news I heard is that some companies that get parts from China are sending over employees with big suitcases to transport the parts they need directly from China in order to keep their supplies continuous. While Indonesia and Vietnam are increasing their manufacturing output.

I agree, I see the US not being impacted as bad if it can be contained. Auto industries are being hit. A lot of the plastic pieces and parts all made in china. Can't build cars without vent deflectors and headlight lenses...

Yeah, and even more infections in other countries effecting the markets again today. Then the CDC announces to us that we should be prepared for the virus to hit the US. That is going to effect the markets tomorrow as well I am sure.
Since we don't have a pandemic yet on our hands it still remains to be seen. I don't want things to get worse. We just have to wait and see what is in store for us...

Due to this the market futures dropped almost 1,000 points. So, the market opened down 997 points! About 3.5%. It has since come back up about 150 points as I write this. So it is not in free fall but a big sell off and not a crash.
Apple dropped 5% or 6% this morning. It seems like Mac is looking pretty smart this morning for his temporary flight to cash. Be ready to jump back in and make some more money.

Mayor London Breed declared a local emergency in San Francisco Tuesday amid the coronavirus outbreak,
despite there being no confirmed cases among the city's residents.
"Although there are still zero confirmed cases in San Francisco residents, the global picture is changing rapidly,
and we need to step-up preparedness," Breed said in a statement. "We see the virus spreading in new parts of
the world every day, and we are taking the necessary steps to protect San Franciscans from harm."
Meanwhile, the SF poop patrols continue to fight the ever-growing fecal matter "epidemic" that has created real cases of hepatitis, typhus and plague/
:wacko:

SF is no longer a place I will visit. Actually, there is not many places in CA I will go ever again. Poop, plague, Corona Virus etc. is not very appealing.
This morning the market is up at the time of my writing this. The market closed down another 900 points or so yesterday. We are currently up 1.25% or over $300. The level is solidly over 27,000 at 27,414. Of course that could change quickly.
China is reporting a slowing of infections and deaths. But Europe is reporting an increase in infections. Our own fed gov announced that we will get the virus here. Not a matter of if, but when. SF over reacted and declared a state of emergency. Most of the expansion of the virus is in Asia and especially the oil patch countries. The price of oil dropped to below $50 today. That is VERY low considering the norms that have been set in the Trump era. Gold, silver are down as well as the 10 year bonds are up. Meaning that people are back buying stocks again and leaving safe havens. But not in a big way. So it looks like a lot of caution out there. Most of big stock guys are saying this is a buying opportunity. Apple is up almost 3% this morning. So if you didn’t jump in when the market opened you missed the surge.

It looks like our markets are going into a correction. The market is selling off big time. But it is not in a free fall and not a panic, yet. It is a severe decline for sure. For this to happen right before my retirement could have meant disaster for me if I still had major holdings in the market. Man, I am glad I pulled out prematurely. Wait, what? :rofl: But seriously, this was my exact fear when I started to plan my retirement.
Our economy is still strong. But these interruptions in the supply chain from China could throw us into a recession of some sort. Stay tuned...

A few takes from this mornings news.
The market is in a correction. It is apparent that there is panic in the markets and the selloff is huge. Only those who are trying to garner market share are calling this a crash. It could eventually be called a crash but at this time the experts are calling this a panic selloff. Our economy is still strong the the supply chain from China and Asia is going to effect it soon. Buying opportunities are upcoming. Because eventually the market will recover. All American companies that make virus masks are up to the tune of 40%-50% already. A lot of that are on the hopes that the Administration is considering enforcing a law from one of the wars forcing the virus mask companies to start manufacturing more masks. It seems the world is not really panicking yet. But the worldwide investors certainly are. The flight to safety such as the 10 year bond rate is significantly lower. One unintended consequence of all of this is that China’s demand for oil is way down so the price of crude is also way down. Look for lower gas prices. One last thing, the FED has said they won’t lower interest rates due to the virus. But the experts are saying to look for the FED to lower rates as much as a half percent in March. So lower mortgage rates as well are coming. Time to refi?
The bad news is that the virus seems to be spreading in Europe. Some countries/areas are restricting movement due to this. This is causing a lot of the market panic and the current selloff. China is claiming the spread is slowing in China. Can’t trust them but that is their official word. The American drug companies are developing a vaccination. Look for it in about a year. But Israel announced they may have a vaccine much sooner than that. They apparently were developing a method of using the body’s own immune system to fight viruses and they were already using a similar strain of Corona as their base. So it is possible a vaccine may be coming sooner than later. We’ll see.

DARPA is supposed to be doing the same (or similar) method for developing a vaccine as Israel. They guessed having something in 90 days (was over a week ago I read the report), BUT testing, trials, and first to “high priority” groups (not us).

Due to our restrictions we may not get the early vaccines. But we may not have the need for them that some countries do. I have been reading about how woefully lacking countries with socialized medicine actually are. Most countries with socialized medicine do not have trauma centers. If you are that bad off, they just can't save you. I read this morning that a famous doctor is going around now speaking about the lacking of facilities in countries with socialized medicine. He uses the example of Princess Diana. She was in that bad crash in France. They apparently left her in the tunnel for over an hour before they could figure out where to take her because France apparently does not have a trauma center or one nearby. She apparently died because they couldn't stop the internal bleeding. For over 3 hours after she got to the hospital. Why? Because of a lack of qualified people who know what they are doing and the equipment necessary to facilitate that. In other words, if she had been in that same accident in the U.S. she probably would have been saved. Of course this is all theoretical. But it is realistic. My point in all of this being that the countries that are able to treat the virus have the abilities to treat the symptoms. I heard a lot of people who got Corona died from malnutrition and dehydration. That would be almost unheard of in this country. I would venture to guess when this thing is all over with the rate of death from Corona in this country will be much lower than most other countries. Assuming the info I heard and my assumptions are correct.

Regarding restrictions and prioritization, yup. I hear ya. I was just surprised to hear that DARPA was working on it. You can probably read between the lines on the whys. . .
Regarding socialized medicine, yup. I hear that too. I've been to countries where it's like that and f-me if I were to have needed medical attention when I was there. I probably would have gotten better treatment going to a local Long's.
On the numbers, I can totally see the malnutrition and dehydration part. That and the mortality rates will likely do down as the "mild to no symptoms" cases start getting documented via better diagnosing methods. Time will tell, but I agree with ya. Will have to watch as things start "heating up" in S Korea, Japan, and Europe.

First recorded death in the U.S. from this virus. That is 1 out of 69 reported cases here. I know there are not enough reported cases for any realistic numbers but 1 out of 69 is 1.4% death rate for those who are diagnosed. I am sure that will increase as the number of reported cases increases. But, still, 1.4% is sort of what I would expect here in the U.S. So far the corona virus has killed 2% of those who contract it worldwide.

Well, hopefully it won’t go over the current 2% worldwide no matter how many die from the virus. Even better the percentage would go down. I was thinking if worldwide the death rate was 2% then here in the US we would probably be around 1.5%. The issue is that we only have 69 cases of infection to use as case study. That is not really enough to say that the current rate of 1.4% is an accurate number.

The first fatality was a man in his 50s with preexisting health problems. Second was in his 70s and also with underlying health problems.
In a statement, Public Health-Seattle & King County said a man in his 70s died Saturday. On Friday, health officials
said a man in his 50s died of coronavirus. Both had underlying health conditions, and both were being treated at a
hospital in Kirkland, Washington, east of Seattle.
Washington state now has 12 confirmed cases.
https://abc7ny.com/health/coronavirus-outbreak-washington-state-health-officials-report-2nd-us-death/5978117/
Older patients and people with preexisting health conditions face the highest risk of dying from the new coronavirus,
a recent study found.
The study, done by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, found that the overall chances of dying
from COVID-19 — the disease caused by the virus — are 2.3%. Other estimates suggest the fatality rate could be
higher: around 4.3%. The current rate, based on the ratio of reported deaths to total cases worldwide, hovers around
3.4%.
But the Chinese CDC study found that the fatality rate rate rose to 8% for patients in their 70s and 15% among those
in their 80s. Out of more than 44,000 coronavirus patients studied, the majority of deaths were among those at least 60
or older.

https://www.health.com/condition/cold-flu-sinus/how-many-people-die-of-the-flu-every-year
Right, but the raw number of people who died to date or annually can't be compared. Have to look at the rate of deaths per infected, speed and ease of transmission, incubation periods, hosts (apparently dogs can get this new one), and ability of hospitals to treat patients in addition to their normal workload/bed space.
Coronavirus is actually the name of a family of viruses that includes MERS and SARS. It's just bad media reporting that nicknamed this specific strain, COVID-19, "coronavirus". Maybe if they could have thought of "Covfefe," they would have. :rofl:
Coronaviruses have been researched since the 1960s. Yet, the media wants us to believe it's some new virus that Trump helped create and spread.
There are hundreds of coronaviruses, most of which circulate among animals including pigs, camels, bats and cats.
Sometimes those viruses jump to humans—called a spillover event—and can cause disease. Seven coronaviruses
are known to cause human disease, four of which are mild: viruses 229E, OC43, NL63 and HKU1. Three of the
coronaviruses can have more serious outcomes in people, and those diseases are SARS (severe acute respiratory
syndrome) which emerged in late 2002 and disappeared by 2004; MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome), which
emerged in 2012 and remains in circulation in camels; and COVID-19, which emerged in December 2019 from China
and a global effort is under way to contain its spread. COVID-19 is caused by the coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2.
Thanks to research investments into the SARS and MERS outbreaks, NIAID scientists and grantees are better prepared
to develop diagnostics, therapeutics and vaccines against COVID-19. Included in those projects are basic research to
understand how the virus infects cells and causes disease; adapting platforms used to develop diagnostic tests and
vaccines; and evaluating treatments such as broad-spectrum antivirals and potentially monoclonal antibodies.
In fact, within two weeks of the discovery of COVID-19, NIAID researchers had determined how the virus enters cells.

As soon as we are able to start getting test kits for the virus into more hands you will probably see big chunks or people reportedly having the virus. Some are saying hundreds and some are saying thousands overnight. So theoretically, we probably already have infected in the thousands, we just don’t know it yet. I just think it is bad how the market is just panicking and predicting economic gloom and doom. I’m not saying it won’t happen but it’s not a pandemic yet.
-
I wasn't able to post about the market earlier. But as I write this the market is up big. Up almost 600 points or 2.33%. I don't know if this is a bounce or the floor where we just go up from here. But the Futures market was swinging wildly positive to negative and back again almost a 1,000 point swing. So the markets are still volatile. Buying opportunities abound. Especially Apple if that is what you are into.
The word is this rebound is probably due to the rumor (or news leak) that the FED is going to drop the rate a quarter of half point and might do some Quantitative Easing. The rate drop I like but the QE is harmful to our economy in the long run. If the markets stay up today and close like this we'll have to wait to see if it is just a bounce or the floor from last weeks losses. Either way, the economy is still strong and the virus is still spreading. Stay tuned...

I'm thinking this is the case. That many infected either have mild symptoms or symptoms written off as the "common flu". That now that there are faster tests (CT scans) besides the "official" CDC confirmation, that the numbers will rise. I think the same thing happened in China and what CDC mentioned as the typical evolution when a new virus/infection/etc comes up.
I think it is already a pandemic, just hopefully not quite a serious as many are making it out to be. People are losing their damn minds!

The flu season doesn't bother me, but what does is the possible lack of accurate numbers from China. They claim only 80K infected and 2K deaths. But you don't build 3 hospitals in 10 days for those small numbers. You don't have dioxide reports sky rocket if you're only burning 2K bodies. The dioxide reports estimate it would take the crematories working 24/7 which means 100K bodies are being burned. You don't bring in mobile crematories for 2K deaths just for "medical waste". You don't drag people out of their homes by force for 80K infected.
All these are what are causing my speculation for China to be hiding info. And the 2 layers of tinfoil that I'm using now.

WOW! Just WOW! The stock market seemed to shrug off all the Corona Virus panic and it closed up almost 1,300 points over 5%. Apple up 25 over 9% to 298.81. I suspected this would happen but just not today and not this much. I think the big thing is now let's wait and see how quickly China can recover its manufacturing and supply lines. If they can come back significantly in a month or less you will see the stock market respond significantly. :thumbsup:

I remember that pandemic. Obama took 6 months to declare a state of emergency. After 100’s if not 1,000 US citizens had already died. Around 12k US citizens died from the Swine Flu. I don’t remember the market tanking like it did last week?
It is obvious to me the difference between then and now is social media and the main stream media. They are willing to play to the emotions of the uninformed and divide the country in order to try and hurt the president.

CORONA UPDATE
From: "DOH.dirclerk"
Date: February 29, 2020 at 5:16:40 PM HST
Subject: COVID-19 Daily Update 2/29/20
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
DAVID Y. IGE
GOVERNOR
BRUCE S. ANDERSON, Ph.D.
DIRECTOR
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
February 29, 2020 20-009
COVID-19 Daily Update
DOH State Laboratories Division now capable of COVID-19 testing
Hawai‘i Department of Health (DOH) is now capable of in-state testing for COVID-19 and results can be ready within 24-48 hours of a sample being collected. This is a new, major development that enhances the state’s prevention and mitigation response capabilities to further safeguard the health of the people in Hawai‘i.
Previously, the state had earlier reported that testing capacity would not be ready until early next week. The DOH State Laboratories Division staff worked closely with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) around the clock to receive approval from the CDC and complete the validation process to move forward with the testing procedure in Hawai‘i.
No cases of COVID-19 identified in Hawai‘i at this time
Currently, there are no cases of COVID-19 identified in Hawai‘i. DOH is actively preparing for possible cases and working with state, county, and federal partners including the medical community in Hawai‘i. The following summary as of Feb. 29 shows the number of individuals being monitored or under quarantine. Many of these individuals were identified through screening by federal officials at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. These numbers fluctuate often as travelers arrive, depart, or begin and end their self-monitoring with supervision by DOH.
COVID-19 Summary of Numbers as of Feb. 29, 2020
(updated as new information becomes available)
Number of Confirmed Case(s)
0
Number of Persons Under Investigation (current, testing pending)
0
Number of Persons Under Investigation (closed, testing negative)
1
Number of Persons Under Quarantine
0
Number of Persons Self-Monitoring with DOH supervision
96
Of the 96 individuals who are self-monitoring with public health supervision, 88 are on O‘ahu, 5 are on Hawai‘i Island, 1 is on Maui, and 2 are on Kaua‘i.
Confirmed: Meets CDC criteria and positive test result received from a certified laboratory.
Person Under Investigation (PUI): Meets CDC criteria for investigation and testing pending.
Quarantine: Individuals are required to remain in a designated location and separated from others. They are actively monitored by Department of Health staff. Quarantine is enforceable by law.
Monitoring: Individuals voluntarily remain at home and refrain from work, school, gathering places, and public transit. They communicate daily with Department of Health staff.
Updating physician guidance and criteria for persons under investigation
On Feb. 27, the CDC updated the definition of a Person Under Investigation (PUI) to include travelers to other areas. CDC has posted updated Criteria to Guide Evaluation of PUI for COVID-19. On Feb. 26, the DOH issued a medical advisory which encourages clinicians to reach out to the health department to discuss testing if they have a patient who meets the criteria for a PUI.
Guidance for schools and childcare programs
The CDC recently posted interim guidance for administrators of childcare programs and K-12 schools to plan, prepare, and respond to COVID-19. School closures have taken place in Japan and South Korea.
Business continuity planning
State and county agencies are actively preparing for continuity of business operations to deal with the potential impact of COVID-19. The goal is to enable ongoing operations during a public health emergency. To address concerns about workers who have travelled to China, DOH developed a list of frequently asked questions and answers to guide local businesses.
Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT)
HDOT Airports Division is diligently working to clean and sanitize the facilities, especially common touchpoints like escalator handrails, doorknobs, and elevator buttons at airports statewide. HDOT is currently working to install additional hand sanitizer dispensers at HNL and neighbor island airports, especially in the lobbies and high passenger volume areas. Airlines are taking precautions by continually cleaning and sanitizing public areas, equipment and aircrafts.
National travel advisories
Before you travel, check out Travel Advisories and Alerts for your destination(s) at www.travel.state.gov/destination. The State Department and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provide specific advice to travelers on their websites.
Preventing the spread of misinformation and disease
The Department of Health is committed to sharing information as it becomes available. People are urged not to spread misinformation or inaccurate statements that are not confirmed, and keep updated and informed on the situation. Everyone can help prevent the spread of respiratory illness with these everyday actions.
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
Stay home when you are sick.
Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a facemask to protect themselves from illnesses, including COVID-19. Keep in mind that supplies are limited and we need to make sure there are enough masks for our front-line health care workers. If you are sick then wear a mask to protect the people around you.
Prepare for the possibility that people may want to stay home or may be asked to stay home to prevent the spread of illness.
If you have daily medication needs, have more than a week’s supply on hand and have as much on hand as your insurance will allow you to have.
Not everyone can afford to stock up on supplies or has the space to store them, but anything you can arrange in advance means one less inconvenience or one less trip to the store while you are sick.
Make family plans for the possibility of school or day care closures. Do some contingency planning in advance at the family level.

Screening of arriving passengers at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport in Honolulu
Foreign nationals who have traveled to mainland China within the last 14 days are being denied entry into the U.S. This includes not only people with a China passport, but all foreign nationals per Department of Homeland Security guidance. The exception is U.S. citizens, legal permanent U.S. residents or their immediate family.
Enhanced screening procedures are in place at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport to help keep the public and traveling community safe. An additional feature is the non-contact thermal temperature scanners that are used for incoming passengers from China. Airport passenger screening continues to be conducted by federal authorities from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

WOW! Just WOW! The stock market seemed to shrug off all the Corona Virus panic and it closed up almost 1,300 points over 5%. Apple up 25 over 9% to 298.81. I suspected this would happen but just not today and not this much. I think the big thing is now let's wait and see how quickly China can recover its manufacturing and supply lines. If they can come back significantly in a month or less you will see the stock market respond significantly. :thumbsup:
My guess is that it is a Toilet Paper Bounce. Retail is getting some love after a record number of store closures over the past few years. We will see what happens

So far this morning the markets are up/down numerous times already. Swinging back and forth. As I write this it is down 80 points or so. But I have seen 500 point swings already this morning. The market may be down/stagnant for a few weeks. The economy might take a bit of a hit.
Toilet Paper Bounce? I have not heard that term in a while. Could very well happen. Like you said, we’ll see what happens.

Best to assume the virus is in Hawaii, the department of health isnt allowing testing for patients were concerned about unless they have specifically been to china or have been in contact with a known infection. It is spreading in the states already without this criteria so we are not testing as much as we want. In oregon with that spontaneous case in Lake oswego the whole state has only done 50 tests.
So assume it is already here and take appropriate precautions. Dont want for the idiots at the department of health tell you what to do.
-
I think I need to call the media. Both myself and one of the docs from the urgent care here seeing patients who have just arrived from seattle and california cant get an answer when we call the health department to arrange testing. That urgent care closed today because they cant get the support and dont want to get infected themselves. The health department isnt even answering the phones for the hotline numbers they gave for physicians to call.
Inducing panic wont really help but we really need to induce some outrage that our health department is totally failing us on this.
The only think I trust less than a politician is the media though and I dont know how to get this information out.
stay safe out there, assume the virus is here and spreading. We should know if this is the case in 2-3 weeks if the hospitals get overrun with patient. But I cant test patients I want to test.

As I progress towards retirement and moving I have not had much of a chance to post in this thread.
The markets are in an obvious panic. Listening to Larry Kudlow this morning reinforced my thoughts that the economy is still very strong. Especially after the job numbers for February were released. Unemployment still at a low of 3.5%. Participation rate at 63.4%. Wages up month over month 3.0%. Added number of jobs for February is 273,000. These are terrific numbers and a leading indicator that the economy is still strong. The 10 year treasury is at an all time low as traders continue to pull out of the panicked market in their flight to safety. There is some concern that this rate could turn negative. This is the same deflation that Japan and Germany are experiencing. I have long said here that deflation is probably the biggest threat to our economy. Even tho we have never really experienced deflation, it is a threat that can be hard to recover from. On the plus side most mortgage rates are tied to the 10 year treasury so look for mortgage rates to drop if they have not already. Kudlow also said that some stimulus is on the table but it won’t be panic stimulus rather it will be targeted. The stimulus will mostly be used to help prevent our economy from slowing too much due to the market panic. So the administration doesn’t want anyone to think we are panicking because we are not. I’m not sure I like this. More liquidity usually means quantitative easing or printing more money.
On a positive note, China claims the infection rate is slowing as well as the death rate. I heard a rumor late last month which I have not been able to corroborate that Foxconn will be back up and running near capacity by the end of March. We’ll see if that is true or not.
I think we’ll see the markets bottom out when we see the virus infections slow down every where else in the world other than China.
Adding to this post:
I forgot to add that airline and hotel stocks, which have been some of the hardest his in this panic drop, are coming back up today. Could this be a sign the market is going to come back soon? We’ll see.

I am guessing that the panic will subside once everyone gets their share of the Fed money.

Well, a lot has happened this weekend. Looks like Italy is closing off their rich districts as CMO mentioned above. That is serious stuff.
But the big surprise this weekend was Saudi Arabia, Russia and OPEC. Since countries are closing off areas and travel has decreased significantly all over the world, demand for crude oil has dropped. It seems that Saudi Arabia wanted OPEC to cut oil production because demand for oil is slowing. Russia, being a member of OPEC gave OPEC the finger and refuses to cut production. Meaning they will produce more than demand causing the price to drop. If they cut production along with the rest of OPEC, the price will stay fairly stabile. Assuming everyone cuts production, they will make good money per barrel but not produce as many barrels. But because Russia turned their backs on OPEC and the Saudis the Saudis decided to take things into their own hands and increased their production. In essence dropping the price and competing directly with Russia. But now supply is much higher than demand. So the price of crude oil dropped 25% down to $34/barrel by late Sunday. This is a HUGE drop in such a short period. And the Saudis are much more efficient at production and can weather the price drop much better than the Russians can. So not only can we look forward to cheaper gas, but Russia is going to get hurt financially over this. Big time. I wonder if they are going to take some sort of action militarily against the Saudis? Just a thought.
Our oil industry is also going to take a hit since the price drop will hurt us as well. Stocks will probably drop. Not just the oil stocks but the wider markets as well. This will slow our economy. So it looks like in the short term things are not getting any better. But we’ll get cheap gas.

This may be good news if you are into stocks. Lower gas prices will ultimately fuel the economy, when the markets drop BUY. when things recover you'll make a profit. i'm waiting for 24K but, things may get worse before they get better..... That's my plan anyway.. each his own...

I realized I made a mistake in this post. Russia is not part of OPEC. But rather Russia has an agreement with OPEC to support their market pricing in order to keep prices higher and stabile. Which is probably why Russia reneged on their agreement.

The market dropped almost 2100 points this morning. They stopped trading for 15 minutes. It is currently down about 1600 points. I think this is the first time in my lifetime I have seen such a market sell off with the economy in such good shape. But this market sell off could trigger a recession.
The thought for the oil war between Russia and Saudi Arabia is that Russia decided to continue its production in order to drop oil prices purposely because they are trying to bankrupt the US oil industry. The shale oil we get from fracking requires a price of $45-$54 a barrel in order to be profitable. And since we are competing against Russia now that we are a net exporter of oil and gas, the Russians know the low prices will hurt our industry. And Saudi Arabia is trying to flood the market by increasing production because they are pissed that Russia did not live up to its agreement with OPEC. They are trying to hurt Russia’s economy. So the oil wars are on.

Got plenty, thanks! Just have to pay an additional $35 for an extra suitcase to bring it with me to AZ. I can’t take a chance that the shelves will still be empty when I arrive in a couple of weeks. Assuming my luggage doesn’t disappear in transit. TP is a hot commodity right now. :wacko:

News said there's nothing Hawaii can do right now to stop anyone from traveling here from any mainland US area, even those that have been seeing a large number of cases.
They also said we still have people traveling here from S. Korea, even though they have a rapidly increasing number of cases there. There's an "honor system" here. When they arrive, they are supposed to self-quarantine if they start to experience symptoms.
Of course, that does nothing for the planes full of passengers who were exposed BEFORE symptoms were presented.
Hawaii is 100% dependent on travel. They'll risk a massive outbreak before putting common sense restrictions on arrivals from anywhere that the feds don't make them.

My Family that lives in SoCal and AZ was scheduled to fly to Israel with a layover in France. Right before the fist batch left, Israel put a mandatory 14 day quarantine on all people coming from France/Europe. Exception was if you were on layover and didn’t leave the airport you didn’t have to quarantine. So they are there for 3 months and didn’t have to quarantine. Three weeks later the rest of the group’s flight was cancelled when Israel shut down all flights from Europe. Two days before they were supposed to leave.
A guy at work told me that Hawaiian is cancelling all flights to the mainland. This is how fake news is created.

My coworkers wife came in from the city where s.korea had the outbreak. Shes been there for a month. No symptoms, and she is not self guaranteeing. Her english sucks so he cant argue or make her do anything.
Instead, he will self quarantine. For 2 weeks he will stay home so he doesn't infect the office. She is in her 60s and hes in his 70s.

After waiting to sort through the facts from the fiction it now looks like c19 is the real deal. Not a world ender but life after will be different. US is totally unprepared, some states worse than others. From the initial outbreak it seems to take about 50 days to peak and run its course. That means Italy is about halfway through.
There are still sick people out and about so my guess is we are likely to get whacked pretty hard. The virus is one thing, but also dangerous is how people react. Locals are still going to work sick because they cannot afford to stay home. Will see if there is a spike in crimes of desperation but other states are already rolling out the martial law language just in case.
Right now we have something like 20 people per hospital bed so hopefully the tourists clear out and improve those odds. Today after watching an elderly man have a coughing fit at the supermarket I am voluntarily reducing unnecessary trips, especially if they involve large crowds and tight quarters.

Long before Trump ran for the job, he was saying how we are way too dependent on China and other countries to provide the manufacturing we need here. Now we see how China TURNED SHIPS AROUND to use the medical supplies and other goods they made rather than have them delivered to the buyers.
We rely on China, not only for the huge number of medical devices and products used daily to treat patients, but also our medications.
This should be not only a wake-up call to those globalists who don't believe other countries would be evil enough to deprive others of the things they themselves need, but also another in a long list of things Trump got right.
According to Sleepy Creepy Joe, China is not a threat to the US.
They are if we let them continue to be our sole source for critical products.

Which part?
This article is about how China could cause our hospitals to "CEASE TO FUNCTION" if they cut off shipments of medical supplies and pharmaceuticals.
Quality isn’t the only concern. Shortages could also arise from attempts by the Chinese to cut off supply, particularly amid the U.S.-China trade standoff.
“If China shut the door on exports, our hospitals would cease to function, so this has tremendous urgency,” Gibson said.
https://www.supplychainbrain.com/articles/30066-pentagon-sees-security-threat-in-chinas-drug-supply-dominance
That was published in Aug 2019, months before the pandemic.
As for recalling cargo ships, it's been reported early on in many newscasts, but since then has been downplayed online to cover for the Communist Chinese government.
It's possible the return-to-China stories were fake news, but the facts could have been multi-faceted. Returning to port not only eased the shortages China was experiencing, but it also could have been an effort to stop the spread of the virus to other countries as well as the restrictions enacted by those other countries on any travel -- including cargo ships -- from China.
Regardless of why, there are tons of articles on how the global cargo container industry is being upended right now, particularly with regard to refrigerated containers. That underscores how dependent the world, including the US, is on China exports.

Thanks. The problem with my searches were that they kept coming up with cruise ship links and after 20 or so pages I wasn’t finding anything.
I have been a big proponent about keeping local. Both here in Hawaii and in the US. Being that I used to work construction, a lot of the products we would use were made in the US. Like reinforcing steel. But the cement for concrete was imported. But since the concrete was made here, it qualified as made in the US. A lot of the other products are made in the US with Chinese components. Quality was not always great. Price is always a factor. We depend too much on China for too many things. I agree with the president signing an EO to make our medicine here in the US.

Knowing for the last 6 months that we will be moving I started to let my supplies run down so I don’t have to pay to move 500 rolls of TP and stuff that I could readily get just a few weeks ago. So when everyone started hoarding TP was like I have enough. But then I took count and I have enough to last me into mid April. I have been trying to score a package of TP for over a week now and I have come up empty. I even check the web constantly. Nothing. I went early to Target and Costco Saturday and Sunday and I missed out. I went early this morning to Target and I was 3rd in line. Guaranteed to get a package. When I got to the shelves there were less than 25 packages total. That’s all they had for the day. Even fewer paper towels. I got my one allowed package of 12 rolls of TP. About a months worth. So I plan on taking as much TP in my luggage I can and I’ll worry about getting more after I move. But then as I was opening my browser it was still on Amazon and a package of TP popped up as being available and shipped April 6-28. Got it so I’ll have a backup and I won’t have to go early to fight the crowds cuz I’m getting desperate. My container shows up 6 weeks later and I’ll have part of a package in there.
I sincerely hope this madness has calmed down by the time I get situated because walking thru Costco Saturday and Sunday I saw so many empty shelves. Eggs, chicken, hot dogs, all forms of beef except the really expensive cuts, hot pockets, etc were all gone. And I’m low on food. Surprising thing was there was choke bottled water.
This move couldn’t happen at a worst time. At least the president mentioned not taking the next step for at least 2 weeks. I move in 9 days. Now if my flight doesn’t cancel, I’m hoping I dodged a bullet.
-
At some point people will stop panic buying and the supply chain will stabilize. It is just a shame that some have ratcheted up the fear to such insane levels just to cut a profit. Yeah people are going to die and we will have to learn to wait for some of the basics a bit longer than we are used to, but the world is not ending. In six months we will all be looking back at the silly over reactions that will probably seem rather embarrassing than anything. Not to minimize the danger. The longer people stand in lines for toilet paper the more chances there are to spread the virus.
I think we should put a bounty out on toilet paper hoarders to shame them now rather than wait until the all clear. Post pics of your friends ridiculous TP stash and win cash!

Starting telework starting today. Made one last trip to Sam's yesterday, but to get a larger monitor to facilitate working from home better. Sam's actually wasn't bad yesterday. It was crowded, but lines were moving. Some people trying to hoard water and also trying to argue that they didn't see the sign for 2 limit (not sure if it was per person or transaction). They did have a lot of stock and could see a lot in the back. No TP. Lots of meat, but mostly in the back waiting for the cutters to process.

Stock market trading has stopped due to trading hitting a 7% loss. The dollar is growing stronger by the day and other strong currencies are at 20 and 30 year lows against the dollar. This usually is a sign that there is, or is going to be a global recession. If it is not already here it is coming. And I think we will see a recession here as well. Our economy remains strong even though we are headed towards a recession. Global investors and countries are buying dollars because we have the best and most stabile currency in the world. Even gold and silver are dropping meaning that the usual safe harbors are no longer being thought as safe and stabile. The 10 year treasury is going up meaning investors are leaving this safe harbor for the dollar. Very weird market right now.
The market reopened now. It’s still dropping.
Oil is at a 20 year low due to the trade war between Russia and Saudi Arabia. This is going to hurt our oil industry. Hard. We will have cheap gas for a while. That’s a good thing. We’ll see some oil companies go under or be absorbed by the bigger guys. Fracking is going to slow or stop. It remains to be seen how long they will are going to fight it out. One of them will have to give up eventually. I’m predicting it will be Russia as Saudi Arabia is a very rich country. I think they can outlast Russia. Actually, I think this is going to hurt us more than the CV is going to over the long haul. The CV and stock market is nothing more than a psychological panic. But this oil war is real and will hurt us more than is apparent currently.

Interesting take on the "emergency", and how these plastic bag and straw bans are likely contributing to the pandemic. It was stated that perhaps these bans should be temporarily lifted or postponed to reduce the risks associated with reusable grocery bags, which have been reported to have caused at least 55 deaths from bacteria deposited in the bags from fresh produce.
If we're sanitizing hand railings, chairs, doors and even the air to kill the coronavirus, why are we not also making sure the things that touch the food we feed to our families is not likewise sanitary?
Washing reusable bags carries it's own costs, as in water, detergent, heat (if using a dryer which helps kill germs), and time.
Another example of attempts to save the planet causing potentially more harm for humans.

The study was based on patients in China. What if the combination of "Asian" and "Type A Blood" is the reason for higher rates of infections & deaths, not blood type alone?
There are genetic differences between races that make some more susceptible to some diseases than others. Sickle cell comes to mind.

The study was based on patients in China. What if the combination of "Asian" and "Type A Blood" is the reason for higher rates of infections & deaths, not blood type alone?
There are genetic differences between races that make some more susceptible to some diseases than others. Sickle cell comes to mind.

By HNN Staff | March 20, 2020 at 1:49 PM HST - Updated March 20 at 4:41 PM
HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - The state Health Department on Friday confirmed community spread of coronavirus in Hawaii after two new cases were found to have no link to recent travel.
It’s a dramatic new development that will undoubtedly bolster growing calls for the governor to institute stricter measures aimed at locking down the state and stopping travel to the islands.
The Health Department reported 11 new cases of coronavirus virus Friday, including one child, bringing the statewide total to 37. Both of the new cases of community transmission are on Oahu, and the patients ― tested by private labs ― have had no direct contact with each other.
Six Hawaii residents and an injured passenger and her spouse on board the Maasdam cruise ship at Honolulu Harbor have been allowed to disembark.
The state Department of Transportation said none of the passengers had a fever or displayed any other symptoms of quarantine. They’ve been asked to self-quarantine for 14 days as a precaution.
Meanwhile, no other passengers or crew on the vessel are being allowed to leave.
“Allowing the Hawaii residents off the ship means they will avoid unnecessary air travel and reduces their risk of exposure to COVID-19," Gov. David Ige said, in a news release. "The woman with a fractured leg needs medical attention and therefore must be allowed off the boat.”
Keep safe everyone!
-
48 cases today. When they hit 50 does it cue the theme music?
All jokes aside it looks more like a lock down coming soon. Ige is waiting for testing surveillance but there is already community spread and as results come back in the numbers are growing exponentially.

This was not a briefing. It was an attack ad for his campaign.
He's not telling us anything useful. He's merely doing the only thing Dems know how -- sling accusations that the media picks up and runs with no matter how dishonest they may be.
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/489014-biden-trumps-failure-of-planning-and-preparation-worsened-coronavirus
The former vice president accused the Trump administration of ignoring early warning signs
about the pandemic and of downplaying the disease at critical points when the virus was primarily
concentrated in China.
“For too long, the warning signs were ignored,” Biden said. “For too long, the administration
said the threats were under control, contained, or like the flu. The president said no one saw
this coming. That’s just not accurate. Our intelligence officials were warning about the coronavirus
threat in January. Just based on public information I had, I warned the threat was getting worse
way back on January 27.”
"For too long?" LOL! :rofl:
The first known case in the United States of COVID-19 was confirmed in the state of Washington on January 20, 2020,
in a 35-year-old man who had returned from Wuhan, China on January 15.[4]
The White House Coronavirus Task Force was established on January 29.[2]
On January 31, the Trump administration declared a public health emergency,[5] and placed travel restrictions on entry for travellers from China.[6]
Joe said he knew things were getting worse "way back on January 27th". Must have had insider information from his China contacts that paid Hunter all that money.
Poor old Joe has lost the ability to gauge time.
Meanwhile, a guest on MSNBC said Trump's actions in January (while the Dems were busy impeaching him, btw) likely prevented the US from being another Italy with regard to number and rate of new cases in Feb and Mar.
This week, the DEMOCRATS blocked the Coronavirus Stimulus Bill -- TWICE. This ought to go over well in November when voters consider who was trying to help them in a crisis, and who was obstructing.

And it was likely caught from someone who caught it while traveling. So most likely someone in the household. I've been blasting friends on social media for traveling if it's not work related cause stuff like this can happen and that's how stuff spreads. My friend who's a RN went to Australia last week and came back. First thing she did was hang at the beach in Kailua on the weekend. Another friend is in Singapore for his wedding anniversary.
I blasted that girl from BI who caught CV while in NY trying out for the Jets dance team. Cause you know, it's not like NY is the #1 for CV cases or anything.

13th Century Poem
"A sickly season," the merchant said,
"The town I left was filled with dead,
and everywhere these queer red flies
crawled upon the corpses' eyes,
eating them away."
"Fair make you sick," the merchant said,
"They crawled upon the wine and bread.
Pale priests with oil and books,
bulging eyes and crazy looks,
dropping like the flies."
"I had to laugh," the merchant said,
"The doctors purged, and dosed, and bled;
"And proved through solemn disputation
"The cause lay in some constellation.
"Then they began to die."
"First they sneezed," the merchant said,
"And then they turned the brightest red,
Begged for water, then fell back.
With bulging eyes and face turned black,
they waited for the flies."
"I came away," the merchant said,
"You can't do business with the dead.
"So I've come here to ply my trade.
"You'll find this to be a fine brocade..."
And then he sneezed.

The SEIU union in California has located 39 million n95 masks. Kudos to them for their efforts. We have SEIU members in Hawaii, maybe they can get some for our medical workers.
The masks were found just days after AG Barr announced a warning to those who hoard or price gouge critical medical supplies. Coincidence?
I wonder just who had possession of these masks and how many different caches made up this stash of 39 million.

Fake news is anything that was published without verification and turns out to be wrong, among other types of Fakery.
They admitted they wanted to make information public as quickly as they got it. Maybe verifying it's true is just as important as rushing to make it public, if not more so?

Was watching the mayor's briefing this morning, they said that if people test positive, they would be contacting community, directly somehow ???, where the positive person resides, so they can self monitor for symptoms and take extra precautions.. for privacy concerns.
That's far fetched IMO, the can't even get their own facts straight from hour to hour....
The Ewa Beach man, currently in ICU, seemed to have caught it earlier this month, he is a Waikiki bartender. So between that time, when they kept saying "only visitor/import" infections was going on, the unfortunate man was exposed and exposing everyone from my side all the way to waikiki.
They seem to be keeping the real scoop under the radar, most definitely to prevent panic, but their inability to keep a straight story is telling.
Stay safe and take all precautions

The US is now performing 100K CV tests per day, thanks to a new 5 minute test we developed. It took 5 hours +/- before.
The US has exceeded 1,000,000 completed tests.
Both of those numbers exceeds any and all other nations, including China -- even though they started much sooner.
We stopped the distribution of (faulty) masks from China in the US. That action alone may have prevent thousands of new cases, particularly among healthcare workers and first responders.
So, if you read/hear that the US has identified more CV cases than any other country, it might be because we are screening more people in less time than any other country. This should help reduce the rate of transmission significantly as new cases are isolated before they spread it to more people.

Can someone tell me what the published number of pending means? I know there are more people than that waiting on their test results so I’m confused

Person Under Investigation (PUI):
1. Select “PUI, testing pending” if a PUI has been identified but the initial laboratory testing
has not yet been completed.
2. Select “PUI, tested negative” if a PUI was previously identified, but the laboratory testing
for the virus that causes COVID-19 was negative.
3. Select “laboratory-confirmed case” if a person has at least one respiratory specimen that
tested positive for the virus that causes COVID-19 by a CDC laboratory, state or local public
health laboratory, or commercial laboratory using FDA-validated COVID 19 NAA.
(Note: effective 3/14/2020 there is no longer the designation of “presumptive positive”).

Some show symptoms and may have been exposed, but they test negative. They might/will be quarantined for 2 weeks to make sure.
Even though those could count as negatives in the testing lists, they are actually "pending".
I'm not 100% sure on that, but it's what I've gathered from news discussions.

The Zaandam originally departed from Buenos Aires on March 7 — a day before the U.S. State Department advised to avoid cruise travel and before any substantial restrictions were in place in Florida. DeSantis declared a state of emergency in the state two days later.
Passenger Emily Spindler Brazell, of Tappahannock, Virginia, said they’ve been treated to extravagant meals, wine and unlimited phone calls, but have had to isolate in their rooms.
At least two of the four deaths on the Zaandam were caused by the coronavirus, according to Panamanian authorities. Carnival said nine others have tested positive. And while many more reported feeling ill, most of the passengers and crew on both ships appear to be in good health.
“Florida continues to receive flights from New York, and it allowed spring break gatherings to go on as planned. Why turn their backs on us?” Gabaroni said.
MIAMI >> Passengers from an ill-fated South American cruise are anxious to disembark once they reach Florida, but Gov. Ron DeSantis said the state’s health care resources are already stretched too thin to take on another ship’s coronavirus caseload. The U.S. Coast Guard said today that the decision would be punted to Washington if authorities can’t agree.
The ships became pariahs as country after country sealed borders in response to the pandemic. Passengers said they were asked to keep their rooms dark and leave their drapes closed as they passed through the Panama Canal.
[Curious why "keep their rooms dark and leave their drapes closed as they passed through the Panama Canal"?]

Off the top of my head, I would guess it's purely for appearances -- an attempt to make the ship look somber and serious, less like a cruise ship full of "wealthy" people just out for a good time.

New York (CNN Business) CNN anchor Chris Cuomo said Tuesday that he has been diagnosed
with Covid-19.
He is feeling well, and will continue to anchor his 9 p.m. program "Cuomo Prime Time" from his
home.
"In these difficult times that seem to get more difficult and complicated by the day, I just found out
that I am positive for coronavirus," Cuomo wrote in a message on Twitter.
"I have been exposed to people in recent days who have subsequently tested positive and I had
fevers, chills and shortness of breath," he wrote. "I just hope I didn't give it to the kids and Cristina.
That would make me feel worse than this illness!"

It's obvious the Chinese gov't is not going to do anything to help the US gov't look good. Hell, they tried to spread rumors that the pandemic is the result of a US Army bio-weapon.
However, they can earn PR points in the press by helping our Massachusetts hospitals out via a private endeavor. Even the private Boeing 767 was required to carry its own spare tires and parts (China can't guarantee parts if needed), and the plane was allowed 3 hours on the ground. They refueled, got the crew something to eat, loaded 1.2 million masks, and were airborne in 2 hours 57 minutes. I just hope someone performs some QA testing to make sure these aren't the bad ones other countries got from China.

Really exciting at first and then in a few short years you lie dying in a gutter with no friends.
The other argument is that without the US being the big bad enemy there is not much to hold the Xi regime together. They have a lot of problems but manage to distract their population with brinksmanship, like some other countries I know.

Awesome at regurgitation but limited in thought.
His googlefu is unmatched though.
And great at deflection and attack.
Not agreeing or disagreeing with anyone.
Just making an observation.
And the Coronavirus / COVID 19 sucks.
But I guess at least we’re living ( hopefully) through a historical event.
If we make it, our kids can tell their kids “ I lived through that shit” because it will be in the history books.
Stay safe everybody.

The difference between me and K is that I do not think America is inherently evil nor do I believe we should all be punished for the sins of our ruling class. My concern is that, as is happening now, the predictable fallout from a failing-empire crisis will give the derp state free reign to destroy what is left of our rights. The toilet paper hoarders will beg for some 1984/BNW/Handmaid Tale rules to "protect us" and effectively end the experiment with the greatest constitution ever written (as far as I know).

Not really trying to engage him. I just like to point out that there are others here that are right when he is wrong! :rofl:
You are definitely entitled to your opinion. :thumbsup:
BTW, I know you just retired and surely hope you are healthy because the American health system is very overtaxed at the moment, due to all overspending on the military, albeit indirectly resulting in the deaths of thousands of American citizens due to Covid-19.
But, if I am not mistaken, this situation is acceptable to you, as I once recall you saying something to the effect that you rather have the US spend more of its budget to the military over silly and wasteful domestic items such as health care.
I wonder if your views have changed...

"The difference between me and K is that I do not think America is inherently evil nor do I believe we should all be punished for the sins of our ruling class.
HB, I really need to reclarify something you posted above.
America, China, Russia, Iran, DPRK, etc. or any country for that matter is not inherently good or bad. Rather, it is the level of tyranny that its leadership displays to its own citizenry or to its international neighbors that one can make a determination of whether that nation is good or bad. In addition, empires and nation states on the decline also tend to be heavily corrupt and resort to miscreant foreign policies in order to divert its citizens attention away from doing the things they need to do to reclaim and clean-up their nation, so it can be sincerely respected and not feared amongst its peers.
As to your point of whether do I believe everyone should be punished for the sins for the America's ruling class; no I do not. However, I do believe everyone should be educated and reminded of those sins, if those sins continue to persist to the present.
"My concern is that, as is happening now, the predictable fallout from a failing-empire crisis will give the derp state free reign to destroy what is left of our rights.

Totally agree.
Although justified due to the current pandemic crisis, we now see becoming the new norm: curfews, concentration camps for the infected, the return of the draft this time for medical professionals, and the national guard on the streets. If this will be the new norm in the future, you can bet that martial law and the confiscation of firearms for our protection will be around the corner, if and, I pray not, when this country falls into an economic depression resulting in widespread civil unrest and riots, potentially as soon during the third quarter of this year.
-
My guess is we will see MAJOR crumbling in another two months, and it gets progressively worse, and then the SHTF thing you mention will happen NEXT year.
Could be wrong. Could be this year.

I hope I am 1,000,000% wrong and that there will be no economic depression and the multitrillion dollars that will be spent in the next couple of months will result into a situation of some normalcy by the third or fourth quarter of this year.
But, I will tell you that all of my economic colleagues have more or less said the same thing. If the nations of the World do not get control of Covid-19 in their respective countries by the end of Summer, the second wave of the virus will make a global comeback on the onset of the next flu season; hence, throwing everyone back into the same economic situation we are in right now.
If that happens, the whole World goes from a bad economic whatevers to an even worse one with hyperinflation and martial law declared everywhere. Suffice-to-say, American gun owners will have to gut check their beliefs of the 2nd Amendment because we all know what comes next, if we reach that point.

I don’t see it as an overnight event but more of a slow erosion of our rights for increasingly ridiculous reasons that capitalize on the cascade of crises. Pretty much just a continuation of what has happened so far. The boiling frog approach has worked really well so far. Why mess with a good thing?
Also most viruses of the past do their damage in a period of months, not years.

Once again, I am sincerely hoping you are right and I am wrong in that the transformation of the US into a true fascist police state will not happen when we wake up in the morning.
However, we are living in an unprecedented time where global economic history is in the making. Hence, the powers elite and ultra-wealthy know they have the populace in their grasp with the upcoming economic turmoil and may want to push the button first before the economic situation gets so bad that radical revolutionary forces begin to emerge leading to a potential Second American Revolution or Civil War II that finally throws them out of power.

Oh Kuleana,
You took my bait hook line and sinker. I trolled you and was totally upfront about it and you still decided to try and engage me. And this coming from the masterful trolling mind that started that military spending thread that eventually got closed down. This is meant as a total compliment, BTW. I purposely stayed out of it for that reason.
Unfortunately, you misquoted me but ended making my point for me. Which is surprising as I am not sure why you disagree with me? Basically I stated I was against Social Programs that are wasteful. I did not say I was against “wasteful domestic item”. There are some I actually like. I also stated I am for most Social programs just not in their current form. And I gave the example of people being on welfare for life. I believe in limited time welfare. And I don’t believe in government run healthcare system. But I believe there should be a limited government run healthcare system that has private sector oversight. Or possibly run by a private sector group. And I believe in having a choice. My wife would prefer to have a private sector health insurance plan but is FORCED to be on Medicare. She has NO CHOICE. That sounds like Socialism to me. Also, I want to buy a private health sector health insurance plan but I am FORCED to buy Obamacare. I have NO CHOICE. This smacks of Socialism to me. And by the way is quite wasteful. But I digress. This is a subject for a different thread.
But I am getting away from the point you made for me so eloquently. The point is “wasteful”. I am against all waste. And I am quite surprised that you are not supporting me on this. Why would you not be on my side on waste of taxpayer dollars? It sounds like you might be a Socialist.... :rofl:

However, they can earn PR points in the press by helping our Massachusetts hospitals out via a private endeavor. Even the private Boeing 767 was required to carry its own spare tires and parts (China can't guarantee parts if needed), and the plane was allowed 3 hours on the ground. They refueled, got the crew something to eat, loaded 1.2 million masks, and were airborne in 2 hours 57 minutes. I just hope someone performs some QA testing to make sure these aren't the bad ones other countries got from China.
Well, Mr. anti-China, GOOD NEWS for New York; it appears China will be coming to the aid of American citizens once again with sending 1,000 ventilators to that state! :worship: :worship: :worship:
Funny how COMMUNIST CHINA is rushing to help American doctors and patients in need of medical equipment, while AMERICAN CAPITALIST COMPANIES like 3M and other PRIVATE GOUGERS are shafting their own people just to earn a buck. :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:
What does this say as to who are the American people's real friends and enemies? :shake: :shake: :shake:
Communism is definitely NOT the right answer, but now we see capitalism too is NOT the right answer in all cases after all. :oops: :oops: :oops:

In case you haven't heard, the state is on curfew during the Easter weekend.
Starting Friday night, no vehicles (cars, trucks, bikes, mopeds, scooters, etc.) are allowed on the roads from 11PM through 5AM the next morning. This will be in effect Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights -- so ending Monday morning at 5AM.
Exceptions will be made for emergency medical situations, looking for prescription refills (no word on whether medical MJ counts :rofl:), going to/from work at a place that's on the "essential" list, etc.
Walking in your community is okay. Just no driving.
Cops will be out to enforce the curfew and other lockdown orders such as only essential trips away from home. Punishment for not obeying these rules can include a $5,000 fine, 1 year in jail, or both.

Today 23 new cases as of yesterday. :(

I’m convinced they go up nearing weekends due to free drive through weekend testing and results taking about a week to come back.
Who knows how much of this is out there!

By HNN Staff | April 17, 2020 at 1:37 PM HST - Updated April 17 at 5:30 PM
HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - The governor is now mandating that everyone wear a face mask or covering while in essential businesses — or while waiting to get inside.
The requirement was included in an emergency supplemental proclamation issued Friday and takes effect immediately. But it wasn’t clear how — or when — it would be enforced.
The face mask requirement applies to both employees and customers in essential businesses.
===============
I'm going to the bank now.

I read somewhere that Hawaii's trend for hospitalization shows that we've reached the peak ahead of the projections. Many starts are still trending upward in terms of hospitalizations though. Also something about there's a "next wave" expected from Europe to impact the US. The "second wave" has already happened in Hokkaido and when rules on migrant workers were relaxed in Singapore. Hopefully the healthcare systems in those area are now more robust and are better able to handle the resurgence.
Personally, I think the resurgence will happen quite a bit in the US. Just hopefully by then the healthcare system is shored up (more people, equipment, procedures, etc), treatments are better known or developed, other screening measures in place, etc to limit the effects.

Scary stuff. I was hospitalized next to the ICU where people
died. I heard it all day long, for way too many days.

Really?

“I get that we have to fund airlines, small businesses—Yeah, I agree 100%,
but you also have to fund state governments,” Cuomo said in his press
conference on Saturday.
When you fund a state government, you’re funding small business, hospitals,
and schools anyway, he added. “If you want [states] to reopen, we need funding.”

Amazon's policy:
As COVID-19 has spread, we have seen an increase in people shopping online.
To serve our customers while also helping to ensure the safety of our associates,
we have changed our logistics, transportation, supply chain, purchasing, and third-
party seller processes to prioritize stocking and delivering items that are a higher
priority for our customers. This has resulted in some of our delivery promises being
longer than usual. We're also hiring over 100,000 positions across the U.S. to enable
us to provide this vital service to people everywhere, especially to those, like the
elderly, who are most vulnerable.
I've had to cancel a pump for my washing machine and order from another site. Amazon had that order for 2 weeks, had not shipped it yet. It was showing May 15-30 for estimated delivery.
Same for a product I needed to fix a gasket.
I guess popping the heat spreader off the top of my Intel CPU and replacing the exhaust hose on a portable AC unit are higher priority than clean clothes and a working vehicle.
Each order that wasn't delayed took less than a week to arrive and only 1-2 days to ship out.
:wtf:
I'm not sure they have their priorities straight.
I placed the new order for the washer pump on the 19th late at night. It shipped today and should arrive by Saturday, Apr 25th.

FDA Authorizes First At-Home Coronavirus Sample Collection Kit
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration made a big revelation on Tuesday (April 21),
announcing it has authorized the first at-home coronavirus diagnostic test that allows
individuals to collect and mail their samples to a laboratory.
Reuters reported that the company conducts as many as 65,000 tests per day and is
able to offer results within two to four days.

We had to order bedding and some items related to my wife’s disability and they all arrived in less than a week. In most cases 3-4 days. However, I ordered a new phone case on the 19th and it is due to arrive on May 11. :wtf: I know its not a big deal, but still. Three weeks is ridiculous for something supposedly in stock. Also, I ordered a book on the 10th and it is supposed to arrive by May 7. It’s just a book. Again, almost a month for something supposedly in stock. In the case of the book it was shipped right away. It is the PO that is taking so long to deliver. My phone case has not shipped yet.
I really want this book so I’ll wait for it. But I’m thinking of cancelling the phone case. This lockdown will be over before it arrives.

Yeah. Some orders I placed to see if they would ship sooner than later -- to save a couple of bucks with Prime shipping.
After they took way too long and still didn't ship, I went elsewhere.
I understand their prioritization policy, but I don't think they're doing it right. :wacko:

As of April 17, 23,617 people have been tested.
The spike in cases on the Big Island is likely tied to a cluster of cases the DOH previously investigated involving two McDonald’s restaurants in Kona. The DOH previously said that 14 cases were tied to those restaurants. On Saturday, that number rose to 29, including 17 employees and 12 of their household members, according to a press release.
The governor has issued a moratorium yesterday on evictions, including for failure to pay rent, as Hawaii grapples with the colossal economic fallout of the COVID-19 shutdown. Violators of the order face a misdemeanor charge, punishable by up to a year in jail or $5,000 fine.
All schools are closed until the fall semester - any summer school sessions will be online.
Also Friday, the governor issued new rules that clarify that all beaches are closed, and that lounging or sunbathing on the sand is not allowed. People can still cross beaches to get to the ocean. The state also said that no more than two people or a single family are allowed on recreational boats, and group hiking is not allowed.
Social distancing and self-isolation are both helping. Wearing a mask in public is mandatory in the State of Hawaii - unless you are going into a bank or using an ATM. Includes public transportation riders.
The statistics show we will remain on lockdown through April 30.

The state has conducted 15,149 COVID-19 tests to date. Most of those who have been hospitalized in Hawaii for the coronavirus are over the age of 60. As of Tuesday, the largest COVID-19 patient cohort were people between 40 and 59 years old. Approximately 148 people were in that age category.

There have been 119 people over the age of 60 diagnosed with COVID-19, 26 of whom have required hospitalization.

Regarding how long we need to stay in isolation, the CDC recommends isolation should be maintained until at least 3 days (72 hours) after resolution of fever and myalgia without the use of antipyretics OR at least 7 days have passed since symptom onset, whichever is longer.
A Honolulu firefighter and a police officer have tested positive for coronavirus, authorities said Saturday.

Though not a medical researcher, a very impressive effort on what data he was able to collect and analyze. If I read correctly, it provides further evidence of what we intuitively expected all along. The closer and longer you are in proximity to an infected person with Covid-19, the higher chance of transmission from large droplets when that person coughs, sneezes, breaths too hard, laughs, or talks too loud.
What we need now is a thorough demographic, internal diagnostic, and state of health analysis from all those who have contracted Covid-19 to further pinpoint what kind of people are more susceptible to that illness. This information would prove most strategic in determining the personal protection protocols for people, especially those most at-risk, when returning to work.

Can anyone verify if the vid of the woman placing the dry ice in front of an air vent in a market is legit? The site that I get some info from is 70% accurate. Can't find info on anything else. But then again, I'm sure someone is trying to scrub the info.

First time seeing this, so to what end was the woman taking action? COVID mitigation? Dry ice = carbon dioxide....so mass suffocation?

First time seeing this, so to what end was the woman taking action? COVID mitigation? Dry ice = carbon dioxide....so mass suffocation?
She was spreading the virus which was infused in dry ice. She put the block in front of a vent that goes into the market. She works at the Wuhan lab as a doctor there. She then gets on a train after.

More acccurate than fact checking sites. I remember about 5 years ago, I googled something about Hawaiian history and on 3 occasions, fact check was wrong. Or maybe they're correct and Hawaii history books are wrong. InB4Kulena.

Dry ice is used very often to keep fresh food fresh as it makes a great refrigerant.
A block of dry ice has a surface temp of -109.3°F and turns into a gas as it returns to ambient temperature. No liquid to ruin contents or container, and the weight of the item gets lighter over time.
I've had Dungeness Crab packaged in Seattle for my trip back to Hawaii. They used dry ice. I was told it would keep for up to 48 hours.
I think it's reasonable to assume a "wet market" might offer the same packaging for customers shipping their purchases or not returning home for hours. Dry ice at that market? Meh ???

Smokers, you’re safe :thumbsup:
Heard report about test/study with nicotine patches effectiveness in reducing, or even blocking infection from CV19. I think it’s starting in France. It’s based on observations on numbers of smokers vs non-smokers in infected as well as hospitalizations.
And Trump didn’t recommend injecting disinfectant directly. MSM again :facepalm:

It;s a combo, why would a Dr. from the Wuhan Biolab be putting what looks to be a block of dry ice in front of an air intake vent? Then quickly get on a train? Coincidences added up tell what happens.

Can you identify her as a doctor 100%? White coats are used in markets, too.
Is there a better place for dry ice to circulate and make cold air than on a vent?
"Quickly"? As compared to how she usually has to hurry to catch the train? :rofl:

She was wearing a black coat actually, but I guess vid traces her from leaving the lab to the market. Then placing the object by the intake for X reason.
The reason for placing the object near the vent is to release CV and have it circulate in the market. It may not have been dry ice, but looks like it. Why else would a person place it near an intake vent? Is this common practice at markets in Wuhan? No it's not.
I'm trying to find the vid and story, but google has erased it. But the images are not super clear either. Same quality like when Kim Jongs brother was injected.

How come NYC had so many CV and Japan has much less? What is NY doing that no one else is? Both are densely populated.
Is there money to be made if someone goes to the hospital for CV? Thats why navy ship was so empty?

Breaking news!
It appears the US National Institute of Health was grant funding research to study bat-human virus transmission and had given funding to the infamous Wuhan Institute of Virology to do just that. Funding for this project to Wuhan started back during the Obama Administration, but was only recently cut by the Trump Administration last week.
Not surprisingly, US intelligence services and scientists reported that there was no evidence to suggest that the current Covid-19 pandemic was anyway connected to the infamous Wuhan Lab.

Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence -- nor of compliance with all security and containment protocols.
If you're trying to make a case that lack of evidence is proof of something, you need to revisit your beliefs on Hawaii-based ICBMs. :geekdanc:
-

The point is that the US played a role in bat-human virus transmission studies conducted at the Wuhan lab. Whether Covid-19 was a direct result of some sort of release from that lab has yet to be conclusively proven. It is just funny how talking heads in the US geopolitically attack and want to demonize China for whatever reason, but still relies on them to conduct scientific studies. :wtf:

Please elaborate on the "role" the US played. If it was merely the funding of research, I guess we should stop helping other nations 100% and never expect to benefit from their work?

America never helps any nation for free without any strings attached. In this case, the US grant funders funded human-bat virus transmission studies in Wuhan to obviously learn a thing or two on this topic that they felt was presumably within the national interest.

The year isn't over, and anything they have to date is a guesstimate.
They aren't currently testing all flu victims for CV unless their symptoms or travel/contact history says they ought to.
So, it's more likely the CV number will be undercounted and regular flu deaths over-counted.

New York City and other large cities have reported a decrease in murders, but a huge increase in property crimes, like burglaries and car theft.
Burglars and car thieves, though, seemed undeterred by the potentially deadly bug.
Both categories saw a significant increase last month compared to the year prior.
Burglaries were up by nearly 200 — or 26.3 percent — and grand larceny autos increased
by 61.7% or 187 more stolen cars.

I was expecting folks to start getting desperate due to loss of jobs as well as knuckleheads with nothing better to do. Was seeing more home camera type reports initially, but that seemed to go down as well.

Libtard coworker complaining that the virus is Trumps fault. And he's stupid and so is GA, TX, OH for wanting to reopen the economy. Of course she can grumble, because she still has a job and getting paid. Then she goes on to how it's also his fault many jobs are overseas like the mask being made in China. I kept my mouth shut because you can't educate morons with TDS.
But the guy she was talking to has more of an educated judgement. So I told him some info that showed she suffers from TDS and he agreed. He also brought up more stuff about CV that he didn't want to argue with her about.

:( >:(
The corner house at the top of the street with intersection with a main drag got hit a few times. They added bars on windows and doors in addition to their big dog. House location and proximity is definitely a factor.
I do recall reports of break-ins while people were home in the PC area. One family friend goes for walks in the neighborhood and talks story with pretty much everyone. Coconut wireless security system is pretty strong. They were the ones who let me know that the roofing on my dad's house was flapping in the wind. It was one shingle and very small section. My friend said someone from like 3 streets up noticed it one day. I was like "damn, these old folks must have been bored to notice that". :rofl:

Thats why many businesses boarded up their windows and doors. I would think home invasions would be less because everyone is home and bored. I expect car break ins to rise. Robberies not as much because no one is walking the streets, parking lots, malls.
It hasn't gotten desperate yet, maybe a meat shortage might push people over the edge.

anecdotally, in HI, we are experiencing the same thing...
In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died. That’s fairly on par with a typical season, and well below the CDC’s 2017-2018 estimates of 48.8 million illnesses, 959,000 hospitalizations and 79,400 deaths.
At least 14,000 people have died and 250,000 have already been hospitalized during the 2019-2020 flu season, according to estimates from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. More than 26 million Americans have fallen ill with flu-like symptoms.
So that's a 75% drop in deaths CLASSIFIED as flu.
Gosh Dang Muricle ! :o
I still think many flu and other "natural causes" deaths are being classified as CV-19 deaths, even if they were CV-19 infected yet that was not the CAUSE of death.

Hydrochloro cost $0.60 per pill. 12 companies make it, including that french pharma who is the 5th largest in the world. The one Trumps family trust has a mutual fund of which, 3% is allocated to it.
That stuff that Japan uses cost $0.40 per pill. Starts with an A something. 10 companies make it

BTW, your FAKE NEWS is showing. How can something that is in trials have any known costs for the public?
Not only that, but I must have missed the part where pills are being administered intravenously! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
Since January, Gilead has invested significant capital to establish a supply chain capable of large-
scale production of remdesivir.
The production of remdesivir is a long, linear chemical synthesis process that must be completed
sequentially and includes several specialized chemistry steps and novel substances with limited
global availability. The process is both resource- and time-intensive, with some individual manufacturing
steps taking weeks to complete. Because remdesivir is administered intravenously, production
also requires sterile drug product manufacturing capabilities, which limits the number of organizations
capable of manufacturing the medicine. This complex process impacts the ability to rapidly produce large
quantities of drug supply in an emergency situation like the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of these realities,
Gilead worked early on, before any clinical trials had started, to procure a steady flow of long-lead-time
raw materials that will accelerate large-scale production of remdesivir by our current and future partners
once these materials become available in significant quantities.

Dont fall for what the pharma is telling u how hard its to make and maintain quality via their own words.
The page is working now. Guess they had to add in how they make it to justify its cost. We will see if its a few dollars to be fixed or thousands...

What's your source for the cost, as you said, of $1000 per pill?
Or is that now being altered to $100 per some arbitrary number of milligrams? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

By the way, if the drug is already in liquid form, it's easier to administer. Using a powder requires reagents and possibly buffers and the like to preserve and emulsify the drug to solid form.
Of course, I'm not an expert, but it seems implausible that the drug is in powder form, especially when their cost breakout is by the pill! :wacko:

If they ban those, they have to ban all types of masks that use valves to allow exhaled air to exit unfiltered -- pretty much every single mask that uses replaceable filters.
Simple solution: wear a bandana over your mask.
BTW, most of those valves have a cover that is designed to prevent particles from falling into and collecting in the valve -- i.e. the exhaust holes face down.
If someone coughs or sneezes in the mask, any droplets will either collect on the inside of the valve cover, or it will be directed downward, preventing the droplets from becoming airborne.

Your analysis sounds good, but you know how Hawaii law makers think. SF already banned any valve type regardless which direction it faces.

They also let illegals live there without fear of deportation (sanctuary), have a massive poop problem in their streets, and made it a mere misdemeanor to knowingly be HIV positive and have unprotected sex with someone.-- without informing their partner of their HIV status.
It's obvious SF has the health and welfare of American citizens in mind when they make these decisions.

Keep in mind not all N95's are medical grade. The white ones are "carpenter grade". The blue ones are medical grade. Diff between the 2 is the blue ones are FDA approved and NIOSH approved. White ones are just NIOSH approved (with or without valve).

The 2 masks I wear have the valves -- one a soft mask, the other a half-face 3M with the dual cartridge filters.
I keep a bandana in my pocket, too, for whatever need arises.
I'd put the bandana over the filter mask if stopped. It'll be fun to hear the Cop complain that I have to remove the mask beneath it to be compliant. :rofl:

So, it's now a HATE CRIME to refer to the Chinese Coronavirus as "The Chinese Coronavirus."
Coronavirus: Ted Cruz says
San Antonio's ban on racist term
'Chinese virus' is 'nuts'
Calling the coronavirus the "Chinese virus" can be investigated as hate speech in the city of San Antonio,
Texas.
The San Antonio City Council voted 11-0 Thursday to classify terms like "Chinese virus" and "Kung Fu Virus"
as hate speech, and encouraged residents to report "any such antisemitic, discriminatory or racist incidents
to the proper authorities for investigation."
The resolution was introduced by the city's mayor, Ron Nirenberg, as a response to increased aggression
aimed at Asians and Jewish people in the city, stating "the safety and well-being of all community members,
including the Asian and Jewish communities, and in combating hate crimes targeting Asians, Jews and Pacific
Islanders."
According to Councilwoman Shirley Gonzales, a local Chinese restaurant had been the site of several racist
incidents rooted in coronavirus fears.
"It's been in operation for almost 90 years. They have been the victims of hate speech and hate crimes, with
vandalism and that sort of thing on their property," Ms Gonzales said.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/san-antonio-bans-racist-chinese-virus-ted-cruz-a9505881.html
So, basically, instead of catching and prosecuting the actual vandals and other criminals breaking actual laws, they want to make new criminals of people for using words which were already used in the official media to label the COVID-19 virus.
Too bad there's not a PC-Snowflake-Virus.

So China says Wuhan has 6 new cases so they're going to test everyone, all 11 million people (specifically stated this number). But the Mayor of Wuhan back in Jan before he resigned said half the city left prior to their lock down. Their lockdown is full on style. Road blocks and no one in or out. So did all 5.5 million residents return to Wuhan in the past 4 months?
I got money that there will be a "2nd" infection and the numbers will skyrocket because there is no way China can half as little deaths as they're claiming (4400 total deaths and 88K infected). They're going to use the 2nd wave to increase the numbers ten fold. They got caught in a lie.

I mean I'm no conspiracy theorist, but reports of whole provinces (not sure if that's the correct term) were locked down. And some areas on outskirts of Wuhan were pretty rural and were essentially cut off from neighbors. Some of those rural areas maybe not where cell phone usage ownership is as common as what we are used to, as well as starvation a pretty big concern in normal times.

Cell phone subscriptions dropped by a huge percent. So those who already had a plan, didn't pay or renew it for some odd reason...1 could say that maybe they're weren't making $, so they had to stop their cell plan. In this day and age, people find ways to keep their phones. Especially in a high tech country like China.

Point is that a lot of the public's perception that this virus was brought largely by tourists is not accurate. All the tourist "hating", the convoys were all misdirected. Think about it - was is the average length of stay of a tourist versus a returning resident?

Yeah, I remember hearing some of that. I was more referring to the folks in the boonies that I remember hearing stories of them being totally cut off by the next major metro area over. NPR covered one where the access to that area was a bridge over the river and the metro area locked it down, like in the movie I am Legend. The concern was that those people had no access to healthcare and no voice to report how things went. The theory was hundreds died due to starvation and numbers weren't reported. I'm not saying that that's the truth, but I would not be surprised at all if it came out that's what happened. Though it was in line with my concern more with the reaction to the virus than the virus itself.

100% accurate. Almost all the CV cases from Jan-March were from residents traveling. IDK how many were work related, but I'm gonna assume most work related travel was cancelled unless they're essential. So majority were from Vacation, even 1 of our senators. He went to Vegas end of feb for his reunion. Got CV. I have at least 10 friends on FB who posted pics of them on vacation from jan-March. And another 3 who were on vacation international. Luckily, none came down with CV because their pics on their pages continued without interruption. And during those early months, lots of CV was not known, so cancelling vacation would be the best option.
Now we understand more about CV and traveling isn't that bad, as long as you avoid the high CV areas like NY and it's surrounding states. WA has 200 active CV cases and OR has 800.

Today's DOH update on Coronavirus in Hawaii
Cumulative totals as of 12:00pm on May 14, 2020
Total cases (new): 637 (0)
Hawai’i County: 75 (0)
Honolulu County: 414 (0)
Kaua’i County: 21 (0)
Maui County: 117 (0)

There have been 637 cases of COVID-19 identified in Hawaii. Of those cases, 13% have required hospitalization, and 576 (90%) were residents.
As of May 13 the number of people who have been tested is 39,767. There currently are 73 active cases in the State that we are aware of.
Mayor Caldwell announced the rules included in a new emergency order that extends through June 30, and incorporates previous requirements for wearing a face mask in public and maintaining social distancing guidelines. The new order allows public and private outdoors sports fields and courts on Oahu to reopen for one-on-one activities in which it is possible to maintain 6 feet of physical distance between each other at all time. Some examples of permitted activities include singles tennis and pickleball, yoga, and tai chi. An example of an excluded activity would be one-on-one or team basketball.
The order also allows drive-in religious services starting Friday as long as worshippers remain in their vehicles and park at least 6 feet from each other or keep their windows up. Retail shops and malls open tomorrow.
Cumulative totals as of 12:00pm on May 13, 2020

0-19: 32 (2) - none were hospitalized (0 new)
20-39: 208 (0) - 7 were hospitalized (0 new)
40-59: 197 (1) - 23 were hospitalized (0 new)
60+: 120 (0) - 51 were hospitalized (0 new)
new cases are on Oahu and includes an adult and 2 children from a cluster being found at Kalihi Valley Homes Housing Complex.
As of May 12 the number of people who have been tested is 38,881. There currently are 75 active cases in the State that we are aware of.
The governmental administration is trying to figure a safe way to control visitors for now. A few days ago, while checking temperatures for people getting on and off the planes, they discovered a man from Arkansas that had been in Hawaii and was going to fly home to Arkansas had an elevated temperature. He was prevented from traveling back until he was cleared. Many hotels are now issuing single use room keys to visitors who are supposed to be doing 14 days of quarantine. If they leave the room for any reason, they need to check in with the hotel front desk to be issued a citation and a new key. Not all hotels are participating in this, but are using other methods to help maintain quarantine. The governor also stated that rental cars are not available to visitors until they have finished quarantine. This just shows how much easier it would be to test people before they got on the plane to come here. We are waiting for the appropriate test to do this. Then everyone could move about safely without worry.

We have 0 new deaths to report - and 2 new cases (see table). The new cases are on Oahu and are in the 0-19 age range. For 23 consecutive days, fewer than six new cases of the novel coronavirus have been reported statewide.
As of May 10 the number of people who have been tested is 38,042. There currently are 73 active cases in the State that we are aware of.
Hawaii’s hospital bed capacity is currently sufficient to handle the demand should we have a surge.
The state has a plan to increase contact tracing “should the number of cases grow to 1,000 per day,” according to the Governor. Laboratories across the islands are capable of conducting as many as 3,000 diagnostic tests per day, but currently process 400 to 500 specimens each day based on doctor referrals.

I expect Hawaii will be opening up faster than previously expected and I think that will be the tone for the Governor's press release. This is due to seeing the rest of the nation opening up rapidly, even in Democrat strongholds like Los Angeles and New York and Congresses reluctance on passing further stimulus and bailouts. The Hawaii legislatures cautious approach to the budget is an indicator of that. Also the media is letting up on the criticism of states reopening.
Hawaii is having a stronger realization on how everything is connected to tourism when businesses reopen but are still losing money because there are no tourists. This also affects suppliers to these tourism related businesses and other wide ranging effects.

I don't see Hawaii tourism recovering that quick.
If they institute limits on tourists such as quarantine,
verification of health before arrival, 6 foot spacing in restaurants,
beaches, et al. Nobody is going to want to deal with that.
Couple that with economics, not a lot of people are going to
want to travel and spend like they used to.
Another problem is most business's have the same costs.
Hard to run a restaurant/Airline/Tour at 50% of capacity in
a facility where they were barely making it at 100% capacity.
