I think the estimate is 20% of the infected population have complications (e.g. need hospitalization). And, a percentage of those hospitalized do not recover. I don’t know the current numbers but the last estimate I saw was around 2% (of the 20%). So a much smaller number but still relatively huge potential impact.

CCP reporting:

And, this guys needs to go:

WHO Director-General Tedros Ahanom Ghebreyesus opposed travel restrictions last week, saying “We reiterate our call to all countries not to impose restrictions that unnecessarily interfere with international travel and trade. Such restrictions can have the effect of increasing fear and stigma, with little public health benefit.”

CDC responds:

“Frankly, some people criticized when we decided that we wanted to temporarily suspend travel into the United States from individuals who were not Americans or permanent residents who had been in the hot zone in the last 14 days. Some people didn’t think that that was what they would do,” Redfield told Gupta on Thursday.

“Well, we felt very strongly that our obligation was to do all we can to protect the American public,” he added. “I would rather be criticized for over-protecting America than under-protecting America at this stage.”

Why just America why don’t they want to protect every one. They want a 90% reduction in population that’s why.

The CDC is an american institution chartered to specifically protect the US and it’s territories. They don’t speak for other country’s response. Though, I am fairly certain that there are other countries that model their response from the CDC recommendations. They aren’t chartered to protect other countries but have provided assistance and supplies, I believe.

The WHO, on the otherhand, is an international organization with representatives from a wide range of countries.

Recent scientific paper has estimated an R0 of 4.7 - 6.6. I’ll need to find the original source. That’s a huge number if true.

Ok, still half asleep, I thought both parts were WHO responses.

Patents and taxes allows us to track all kinds of things that would otherwise secret, you just need to know what to look for.

You can make people very ill with high and low frequency sounds, low frequency seems to cause a lot of problems compared to high.

Vaccines were not needed to be tested in the US by independent testing a few years ago when I checked. Good eh… Whatever the drug company said was good enough…for the FDA, one of the reasons I avoid them.

Perhaps this will be interesting to you:

Now go look carefully at the frequencies that 5G is going to use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5G_NR_frequency_bands

If you want the whole PDF of that document https://www.cia.gov/library/readingroom/docs/NSA-RDP96X00790R000100020002-4.pdf

Yeah I already know about fucking 5G the US use it as a crowd control weapon, when they first tested it in Brussels over a thousand birds dropped dead out of the trees in a 300 meter radius of the tower.

Even the people who are installing it are saying it’s fucking them up severely, there are several you tube posts from installers saying what it’s doing to there health in a very short time. I found a 5g transmitter on my router box from the cable company, told them to take it away and give me the old 3 G one back.

I had a buddy who worked at British aerospace, he said when they were testing low frequency sounds, there was a manager who nobody liked, every time he came into their department, they would fire LFS at him and make him piss himself or vomit in about 30 seconds, the poor bastard.

Wireless AC home routers already operate on 5.8Ghz

Higher data rates require higher frequency. That’s just physics.

China owns most 5g services. The fact that the uk is letting china install its 5g service is laughable. China will have more info than nsa
