What do SARS, bird flu and Coronavirus all have in common?


Coincidence? Freak of nature?

Yea I'm just in an office environment now. Nothing medical related. Having been here for 10 years has made me slightly germophobic after witnessing inconsiderate/unhygienic behavior.

Guy came into work a couple weeks ago after having a fever/pain/chills all night. I asked wtf are you doing here. He just didn't want to call in sick. I told him I don't care about that your going to get people sick. Around lunchtime he then took orders and made a food run for 17 people (that didn't know he was sick). But he said since he didn't touch their food "it was ok."

I used to teach, and parents sent their kids sick because they didn't want to miss work. The worst though are people that go to church sick then brag about how spiritual they are for not missing.

People come to work sick all the time so they don’t have to use PTO. If you can work from home do it. There’s no medals for making everyone else sick.

From his petspective not sanitizing ground zero for the first case was harmful. He went to the market and it was business as usual in late December early January. No masks, no cleaning.
Of course different people only have a small perspective on this. Put it all together i think it was slow. Hospitals are turning away people who die later from it. One pt said they told her to go buy medicine and go home. Come back if it gets worse. They just aren't prepared for this. You'd think after bird flu and SARS they would have a planned response.
The WHO still hasn't classified it as pandemic. It's still no where near that.

No Chinas MO is to talk a big game but a lot of it is empty. See their ghost cities and interstates to no where.

Expert says coronavirus is spread through eyes as disease 'shuts down China'

What the hell does “spread through eyes” even mean?

Our hospital will go on protocol. All visitors will have masks. Worse case scenario, no visitors.
They have reported also that a few people have been put on ecmo, last ditch effort to oxygen the blood after organ failue in China. They have several serious cases reported. Seems to be hitting the elderly the worst, as would be expected. No pneumonia shot covers this.

Is this the same family infection as pneumonia?

What about children? Any cases reported of the young being affected?
