    'A paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine on Thursday analyzed characteristics of 425 of the first people in Wuhan infected by the virus known as 2019-nCoV and found that none were younger than 15. The median age of patients was 59, and, at least as of mid-January, the youngest person to die from the disease was 36.'

    I know how you feel but this info about the Gates Foundation could probably be verified elsewhere. I might find time to cross check facts.

    I would be very, very careful of Alex Jones in any case. That shouting and screaming he gets up to all the time concerns me.

    The very opposite of Our Blessed Lady.

    A Profound lack of Inner Peace.

    There is a time and place for shouting and screaming I would agree; but he never seems to do anything much else.

    It grinds. It just grinds.

    Anyway.

    I pray to the good God this guy is wrong.

    How awful.

    But he's dead on the bulls eye. Perfectly logical. Perfectly correct. He never misses a step.

    You'll not get this any where else..

    I'm amazed they haven't shut him up or killed him.

    They'll get round to it if he gets more views, depend upon it.

    But until they shut him up, there you go he's still at it.

    Prayers for his protection. He's very , very, very innocent poor man.

    I agree with you about Alex Jones, but that information is available in other places on the internet. Much is hidden from us right now.
    If you google Pirbright Institute, they are saying they are not involved in the Wuhan corona virus. It makes one wonder who is telling the truth.

    Padraig, Alex Jones was just the bearer of bad news. This event was covered by many reputable sites. Check out the participants of this exercise in red toward the bottom. http://www.centerforhealthsecurity.org/event201/about

    About
    About the Event 201 exercise
    Event 201 was a 3.5-hour pandemic tabletop exercise that simulated a series of dramatic, scenario-based facilitated discussions, confronting difficult, true-to-life dilemmas associated with response to a hypothetical, but scientifically plausible, pandemic. 15 global business, government, and public health leaders were players in the simulation exercise that highlighted unresolved real-world policy and economic issues that could be solved with sufficient political will, financial investment, and attention now and in the future.

    The exercise consisted of pre-recorded news broadcasts, live “staff” briefings, and moderated discussions on specific topics. These issues were carefully designed in a compelling narrative that educated the participants and the audience.

    The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, World Economic Forum, and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation jointly propose these recommendations.

    Purpose
    In recent years, the world has seen a growing number of epidemic events, amounting to approximately 200 events annually. These events are increasing, and they are disruptive to health, economies, and society. Managing these events already strains global capacity, even absent a pandemic threat. Experts agree that it is only a matter of time before one of these epidemics becomes global—a pandemic with potentially catastrophic consequences. A severe pandemic, which becomes “Event 201,” would require reliable cooperation among several industries, national governments, and key international institutions.

    Recent economic studies show that pandemics will be the cause of an average annual economic loss of 0.7% of global GDP—or $570 billion. The players’ responses to the scenario illuminated the need for cooperation among industry, national governments, key international institutions, and civil society, to avoid the catastrophic consequences that could arise from a large-scale pandemic.

    Similar to the Center’s 3 previous exercises—Clade X, Dark Winter, and Atlantic Storm—Event 201 aimed to educate senior leaders at the highest level of US and international governments and leaders in global industries.

    It is also a tool to inform members of the policy and preparedness communities and the general public. This is distinct from many other forms of simulation exercises that test protocols or technical policies of a specific organization. Exercises similar to Event 201 are a particularly effective way to help policymakers gain a fuller understanding of the urgent challenges they could face in a dynamic, real-world crisis.

    Scenario
    Details about the scenario are available here.

    Recommendations
    The next severe pandemic will not only cause great illness and loss of life but could also trigger major cascading economic and societal consequences that could contribute greatly to global impact and suffering. The Event 201 pandemic exercise, conducted on October 18, 2019, vividly demonstrated a number of these important gaps in pandemic preparedness as well as some of the elements of the solutions between the public and private sectors that will be needed to fill them. The Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security, World Economic Forum, and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation jointly propose these recommendations.

    When/where
    Friday, October 18, 2019
    8:45 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
    The Pierre hotel
    New York, NY

    Audience
    An invitation-only audience of nearly 130 people attended the exercises, and a livestream of the event was available to everyone. Video coverage is available here.

    Exercise team
    Eric Toner, MD, is the exercise team lead from the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. Crystal Watson, DrPH, MPH and Tara Kirk Sell, PhD, MA are co-leads from the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. Ryan Morhard, JD, is the exercise lead from the World Economic Forum, and Jeffrey French is the exercise lead for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

    Exercise team members are Tom Inglesby, MD; Anita Cicero, JD; Randy Larsen, USAF (retired); Caitlin Rivers, PhD, MPH; Diane Meyer, RN, MPH; Matthew Shearer, MPH; Matthew Watson; Richard Bruns, PhD; Jackie Fox; Andrea Lapp; Margaret Miller; Carol Miller; and Julia Cizek.

    Event 201 was supported by funding from the Open Philanthropy Project.

  15. DEVELOPING: Three Hopeful Treatments for Coronavirus – One Treatment Using Anti-Viral Drug Remdesivir Shows Results within Hours! (VIDEO)

    The first person in the US to catch the coronavirus was successfully treated in Washington state and returned home late last week.

    Dr. George Diaz, a section chief for infectious diseases at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett joined Arthel Neville on FOX News on Sunday morning to discuss the successful treatment of the center’s coronavirus patient. Dr. Diaz told FOX News,

    “About a week into his course he got worse developed pneumonia. At that point given the reports we had gotten out of China… At that point we elected to give him… the experimental Remdesivir, antiviral medication. And within 24 hours he improved significantly. This was quite encouraging and he improved and thereafter remained without fever and felt much better. Over the next few days he improved to where we thought he could be discharged at home under the care of the local health district.”

    Dr. Diaz then added that authorities in China and have recently opened a large clinical trial of Chinese patients looking at those with severe disease as well as those with mild to moderate disease.

    On Monday Dr. Siegel confirmed that the Remdesivir treatment shows tremendous promise and the results were noticed within hours. Dr. Siegel also mentioned two other treatments that are showing promise. In Thailand they are showing an HIV drug with a flu drug and that is showing promise. And a third treatment is the use of antibodies to target the virus.

    The Washington state treatment with the aAnti-viral Drug Remdesivir shows particular promise.

    This is very good news for China and the global community.

    Some updates on the situation in China as well as newly released numbers from Russia (first I have seen) now who are admitting to 20k plus 6k Chinese nationals who are under medical observation. Russia is apparently making some statements about the effectiveness of the existing tests being less than stellar as well. At the 36 min mark are some videos of Chinese people being removed by force from their homes. It is disturbing so please pray for these people everyday. I cant help but be reminded of the comments of a Cardinal who advocated the perfect social order of China.
