With a new warning from an expert that coronavirus could eventually infect 60% of the world’s population another sign of just how far this outbreak could spread, we get more proof from this story over at Focus Taiwan that we’re really only seeing the ‘tip of the iceberg’ in the number of coronavirus deaths and just how lethal this ‘virus’ really is from medical experts who’ve been studying the outbreak there.
From Focus Taiwan.:
'Experts have blamed a form of systemic inflammatory response syndrome called “cytokine storm” for killing some novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)-infected patients who were not very sick in the early stage of infection but eventually died of multiple organ failure, according to Chinese media reports.
The epidemic, which started mid-December in Wuhan, in China’s Hubei Province, had claimed more than 800 lives in China as of Feb. 8, including Li Wenliang (???), a 34-year-old ophthalmologist at Wuhan Central Hospital who tried to issue the first warning about the deadly coronavirus outbreak late last year but was silenced by the Chinese authorities. Li was confirmed Feb. 1 to have been infected after treating a patient who later tested positive for coronavirus. He died on Friday.
While most victims have been middle-aged, elderly or suffering from chronic disease according to official Chinese data, Li’s death, as well as that of a 39-year-old man in Hong Kong, drew media attention as the epidemic has attacked more than 37,000 people in 28 countries around the world.
According to Chinese media reports, Zhong Ming (??), a physician at the department of critical care medicine of Zhongshan Hospital in Shanghai, warned that in some novel coronavirus cases, patients who developed only moderate symptoms at the onset of the disease later fell seriously ill and died of multiple organ failure. He termed the condition a “storm of inflammations”
And with this story over at the Guardian reporting that a ‘super spreader’ of the virus had unknowingly infected at least 11 others in 3 different countries, a perfect example of how quickly this disease can spread without people even knowing they had it, how many more such ‘super spreaders’ are now on the loose across the world with even the Associated Press reporting millions had escaped Wuhan before the quarantine was launched?...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...
