What numbers are you going by? The communist government of China??
3 hospitals and now they're taking over arenas. It might be but I highly doubt it's slowing.I could see the possibility of it spreading slower. When it started it had almost 2 months in mass populated areas where the public wasn't told while they were having banquet festivals with thousands of families sharing food in close proximity. There's probably no better scenario for a virus to blow up quickly.
Now that there is awareness and precautions being taken I can see it not maintaining the initial spread numbers.
To be fair, ebola would have been a calamity if not for mutating to a less transmissible version and basically stopping itself. The harsh reality is that mankind with all of our fancy medical research didn't stop ebola. It stopped itself. Let's hope the novel coronavirus does the same.Remember when the world wws freaking out over ebola?
Anyone else think the CCP may now be fudging their official release numbers in order to manipulate the actual R0 on this virus into stasis at the 2.0 range or a nudge lower?
Pre-national update numbers
2,447 new cases
69 new deaths
4,002 in critical condition
184 released
The daily numbers the last few days are starting to get a little to "perfect" for me. Its been around 2,000 new cases and 65-70 deaths every day. If this was truly slowing down why would they be converting stadiums and hotels into mass quarantine locations in addition to all of these emergency hospitals? Doesn't make any sense.
