I came here to read your views on it but since a thread does not exist yet, I am creating one. Let this be the single place to read info about how to prevent this devil from entering your body. Those of you who are in Noida / Bangalore, what are your views? Assuming the Noida man had this thing since 20th Feb, he would have gone to a lot of crowded places in last 10 days and since incubation period is 15 days, we may not know who all locally caught this in last 10 days !

Recent news is many kids and parents are at risk in Noida because of the infected person attending a kids birthday party confused Hyderabad lad travelled to home town in a bus full of people. Chances are we are looking at least 100+ infections. Stay safe people pray pray shit is hitting the fan.

Let me do some maths:

The 1 south korean women who went to church infected more than 40 people in 1 hour.

If the Noida man was out in open for 10 days (10 × 4 hours) and we are so much more densely packed than south korea, he might have infected 40 × 1 × 40 = 1600 people and each of these will go on infecting more and more hushed

It’s just a panic and mass hysteria. Death cases upto 40 years is 0.2% and above 60 it can go upto 10% that too depending upon people examined by countries. South Korea which is tirelessly finding covid suffering people on govt expense has less than 0.1% fatal reports. It is because most cases either go unnoticed or only people above 60 age are in danger while below 20 has almost nil chance. It’s just another flu which is dangerous only if you are 1) above 60, 2) male, 3) have serioua health issues and 4) came in contact of someone with covid 19. Rest others, 99.9999% world doesn’t need to worry.

You have a higher PROBABILITY of dying from Tuberculosis or influenza or car accident even in China.
I know it’s dangerous to look at the numbers. But if you follow statistics well, you’ll know that the death rates are decreasing day by day.
And the maths to 1600 cases is not so simple. By this means China would have had over 1 crore Covid-19 cases.
I would really like everyone to go to worldometers dot info and study the statistics. It’ll reveal the real picture and not what the media spreads. You have to know that it’s media’s job to state Covid-19 as pandemic. They will lose out on competitions if they don’t.
Out the confirmed cases, you have only 0.2% chance of dying by Covid-19 if you are under age 40 or 50(I don’t remember the exact number)
Plus if you don’t have any disease then you have 0.9% chance of dying by CoronaVirus if you are in the list of confirmed cases.
I just want to say, it’s better to stay calm and informed rather than being worried without being informed.

@OnlineLootera ji, Jahan log diwali par nasa ki tasveer bhejna nahi bhoolte, national athem ko unesco se bar bar best anthem dilwate rehte hain, acche din ki ummid lagaye baithe hain unko media par bharosa jyada hai, sach par nahi. wink

Yes bro. But it’s okay. Even the best minds of the country follow media. It’s not wrong. And yes, I don’t think so we should not be worried. We should be worried. Any virus capable of doubling can actually be pandemic. It’s just that we shouldn’t have the wrong view. We should be calm and informed and take all the precautions.

I think the main issue is:

1 – Symptoms show upto 15 days to show. So no amount of airport checking will help. Like it was the case for our infected friend, they were all-clear at airport but developed symptoms after 10 days. How will you solve this? You cant. WE have started swab test, but even that will not help.

2 – After getting ‘cured’ and testing negative , several people test positive again. How will you take care of that? You cant.

So i think the cases will increase in coming time.

WHO has released new stats and death rate has increased to 3.4% (By comparison seasonal flu death rate is 0.1%)

  • In the past 24 hours, #China reported 129 cases, the lowest since the 20th of January"- @ DrTedros
  • “Outside Flag of China, 1848 #COVID19 cases were reported in 48 countries. 80% of those cases are from just three countries: Korea, Iran, Italy. (annoyingly they used flags instead of names and I hate this trend).
  • 12 new countries have reported their first cases & there are now 21 countries with one case only. “The actions these newly-affected countries take today will be the difference between a handful of cases and a larger cluster”
  • “This #coronavirus is not SARS, it’s not MERS & it’s not influenza. It is a unique virus with unique characteristics. Both #COVID19 & influenza cause respiratory disease & spread the same way, via small droplets of fluid from the nose & mouth of someone who is sick”- @ DrTedros
  • “However, there are some important differences. First, #COVID19 does not transmit as efficiently as influenza. With influenza, people who are infected but not yet sick are major drivers of transmission, which does not appear to be the case for COVID-19”
  • The second major difference is that #COVID19 causes more severe disease than seasonal influenza. While many people globally have built up immunity to seasonal flu strains, COVID-19 is a new #coronavirus to which no one has immunity"
  • “Globally, about 3.4% of reported #COVID19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected”
  • “Third, we have vaccines & therapeutics for seasonal flu, but at the moment there is no vaccine & no specific treatment for #COVID19. However, clinical trials of therapeutics are now being done & more than 20 vaccines are in development”
  • “These differences mean we can’t treat #COVID19 exactly the same way we treat flu. But there are enough similarities to mean that countries are not starting from scratch. For decades, many countries have invested in building up their systems to detect & respond to flu”
  • “Because #COVID19 is also a respiratory pathogen, those systems can, should and are

Govt should take all necessary step to avoid spreading before it’s too late. I live in jaipur and recently a couple from Italy diagnosed with corona positive in jaipur . Instead of shifting them to an isolated ward , the dumb doctors in sms hospital shifted them to a normal ward risking life of 54 more people.

Reports spreading across twitter that another employee working in a company (please do not disclose the name even if you know about it until it is confirmed) in Raheja Mindspace, Hyderabad, has been isolated and samples sent for testing. Rumours claim building no. 20, the one that hosts the company, has been shutdown for now.

Raheja Mindspace is one of the largest spaces hosting thousands of employees in Hyderabad. Hope this doesn’t turn serious. Do keep watching the news and stay safe!

The is large in size with a cell diameter of 400-500 micro, so any mask prevents its entry so there is no need to exploit pharmacists to trade with muzzles. The virus does not settle in the air, but on the ground, so it is not transmitted by the air. The corona virus, when it falls on a metal surface, will live for 12 hours, so washing hands with soap and water well will do the trick. Corona virus when it falls on fabrics stays for 9 hours so washing clothes or exposing them to the sun for two hours is enough for the purpose of killing him. The virus lives on the hands for 10 minutes so putting the alcohol sanitizer in the pocket is enough for the purpose of prevention. If the virus is exposed to a temperature of 26-27°C, it will be killed, it does not live in hot areas. Also drinking hot water and exposure to the sun is good enough. Stay away from ice cream and cold food is important. Gargling with warm water and salt kills tonsils and prevents them from leaking into the lungs. Adhering to these instructions is sufficient to prevent the virus. #UNICEF #SharedAsReceived

Absolute bullshit! 500 microns is 0.5mm so you intend to say we can spot coronavirus particles with naked eye?
