Attack rate? Interesting choice of words. Would that be the same as R0? They previously said that the R0 in high density areas could be as high as 3.8 Which is already damn high.

If attack rate is the same as R0 then this is unbelievably bad.

.... the new coronavirus’s incubation period was about 10 to 14 days, and that the period is contagious.

“There have been mild cases where observation has shown that the patients were contagious during the incubation period. The incubation period is around 10 days,” he said. “The shortest time before the disease’s onset was one day. The longest was 14 days. This is very different from SARS.”

n = 41 exposed, 6 deaths. 15% is NOT the mortality rate..

First of all, up till now we know 2000 have been infected and around 60 have died (official). However, many agree the number infected is vastly underestimated, something like 5% of the total... ie. 2000 x 20 = 40,000,,, So the mortality rate is 60 per 40,000,,,, or 15,000 per million... or 0.15%.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78176690


You're talking about the number infected being 40,000. BUT, of those infected, we don't know yet how many of those will recover or how many of those will die from the infection.

Here is what we know so far:

- Confirmed cases: At least 2,070 in China, 37 abroad

- Deaths: 56

- Cured: 49


[link to www.cgtn.com (secure)]

If we go by THAT information, out of a total of 105 people who've either recovered or died from the illness, 56 have died. That tells me that over 53% of the infections have resulted in death!

Expect many more of those currently infected to perish.

My take is the truth is somewhere between Chinese gov reports and these Taiwanese reports. Both are probably skewed.

China gov obviously cannot be trusted. Could have known about this outbreak long before going public. I've been seeing articles about Chinese officials warning they expect it to worsen. Such statements give them room to gradually increment the severity of their announcements. They've probably padded the numbers on the low side.

On the other hand, Taiwanese press know that any kind of bad news for China equals click-bait, for obvious reasons. Just like fear porn equals click-bait on here.

All indications are this coronavirus is quite damn serious, but it's good to exercise a measure of skepticism. We don't really know how long the virus has been spreading, but we might learn more about its degree of virulence over this and next week. I won't make assumptions purely based on Taiwan nor China news.

To maximize mobility, the weapon should minimize mortality at first. That means it will look deceptively innocuous. But mortality will drastically rise at the end of its cycle. If the average virologist is looking for a typical pattern, they might be baffled by its behavior. Right now, the Wu Flu's rate is reported as 3%, 15% or 55% mortality rate, depending on how its measured and who is measuring it.

If this is a chimeric virus, I'd expect the final rate to be closer to 55% than 3%.

Lab-Made Coronavirus Triggers Debate

The creation of a chimeric SARS-like virus has scientists discussing the risks of gain-of-function research.

Nov 16, 2015
JEF AKST

MERS coronavirus
FLICKR, NIAID
Ralph Baric, an infectious-disease researcher at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, last week (November 9) published a study on his team’s efforts to engineer a virus with the surface protein of the SHC014 coronavirus, found in horseshoe bats in China, and the backbone of to one that causes human-like severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in mice. The hybrid virus could infect human airway cells and caused disease in mice, according to the team’s results, which were published in Nature Medicine.

The results demonstrate the ability of the SHC014 surface protein to bind and infect human cells, validating concerns that this virus—or other coronaviruses found in bat species—may be capable of making the leap to people without first evolving in an intermediate host, Nature reported. They also reignite a debate about whether that information justifies the risk of such work, known as gain-of-function research. “If the [new] virus escaped, nobody could predict the trajectory,” Simon Wain-Hobson, a virologist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, told Nature.

In October 2013, the US government put a stop to all federal funding for gain-of-function studies, with particular concern rising about influenza, SARS, and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). “NIH [National Institutes of Health] has funded such studies because they help define the fundamental nature of human-pathogen interactions, enable the assessment of the pandemic potential of emerging infectious agents, and inform public health and preparedness efforts,” NIH Director Francis Collins said in a statement at the time. “These studies, however, also entail biosafety and biosecurity risks, which need to be understood better.”

Baric’s study on the SHC014-chimeric coronavirus began before the moratorium was announced, and the NIH allowed it to proceed during a review process, which eventually led to the conclusion that the work did not fall under the new restrictions, Baric told Nature. But some researchers, like Wain-Hobson, disagree with that decision.

The debate comes down to how informative the results are. “The only impact of this work is the creation, in a lab, of a new, non-natural risk,” Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist and biodefence expert at Rutgers University, told Nature.

But Baric and others argued the study’s importance. “[The results] move this virus from a candidate emerging pathogen to a clear and present danger,” Peter Daszak, president of the EcoHealth Alliance, which samples viruses from animals and people in emerging-diseases hotspots across the globe, told Nature.

How the numbers work:
if 9 get better and 11 die, then you only worry about the number of sick people for purposes of contagion. 9:11, or 11/20 die. That would be 55% mortality rate (of those cured or dead, which means, those that got over it, one way or the other).

Actual Given Numbers in "reality" (what we're *told*):
So far, it's been a bit all over the place, but...one source I'm seeing is 52 recovered, 55 dead. I know this isn't the be all end all and may not be accurate. There may be many many more deaths that haven't been counted, and there may also be many more people that caught it that refuse to seek treatment. But, going by that, it's 55/107, which is in reality 51.4% mortality rate.

If you have different numbers, then only add up "cured" ("C") + dead ("D"), and then taken the D/C+D. That will be the real mortality rate. It may change slightly (or greatly) as the affected populations change (might be different for various races, age groups, genders, regions due to environmental variants, etc).

BREAKING: Coronavirus Hits 15% Fatality Rate, 83% Infection Rate for Those Exposed; Lancet Publishes Early Study That Points to Alarming Consequences for Humanity
Saturday, January 25, 2020 by: Mike Adams

[link to www.naturalnews.com (secure)]

BREAKING: The U.S. news media is currently running about one to two days behind the Chinese media in covering the bombshell revelations surrounding the coronavirus pandemic. Natural News has Chinese-speaking investigators on the ground in Taiwan, and they’re scanning the Chinese media for the most important announcements.

Earlier today, the Taiwan media began reporting on a new mainland Chinese study that specifically looked at the individuals involved in this Wuhan coronavirus outbreak. We have a partial translation and link below. According to this news, which is widely circulating in the Taiwan press and is based on a study published in The Lancet, the Wuhan coronavirus fatality rate has leaped to 15%, and the infection rate among those exposed is 83%.

These numbers are virtually unheard of in the world of microbiology and infectious disease transmission. It means that 15 out of every 100 infected people will die. It also means that 83 out of 100 exposed people will become infected and able to transmit the disease to others.

So for every 100 people who are exposed, around 12 will die (15% of 83).

The only criticism of this study is that its sample size was relatively small, given that it’s still very early in the outbreak of this disease. The study looked at 41 cases of individuals who were exposed.

If the infection rate stands at 83%, this pandemic will be impossible to contain

Also note the more detailed list of symptoms offered by The Lancet:

Fever: 98%
Cough: 76%
Fatigue: 44%
Sputum production: 28%
Headache: 8%
Haemoptysis: 5% (coughing up BLOOD)
Diarrhea: 3%

Also note it took eight days to develop dyspnoea, or difficulty breathing.

the CDC/WHO models are flawed.

they're averaging the two states of the virus.

as an example:

mobility phase, suppose it has R0 of 10 and mortality of 1%.
mortality phase, suppose it has R0 of 1 and mortality of 60%.

their models can't account for the binary nature,
that's why the numbers are all over the place.

it depends on the current cluster, when it was measured, etc. and needs to be differentiated.

In Massachusetts army base they were losing over 100 soldiers per day where they died sometimes 24 hours after symptoms appeared... wasn’t the flu that killed them persay, but their body’s reaction to try and defeat something it didn’t know how to
