Did I misunderstand this? If you’re infected it basically means death sentence, right? There’s no cure?
As it stands there are 12K infected world wide with this virus. Does that mean they’re all dead soon?
- The news is all unconfirmed rumors, I heard they it is responding with HIV meds, another rumor you get sick, then healthy but left with HIV, damaged immune sys.robotron3k
- Another news rumor is kills only Chinese people and v mild to outside race, leading some to believe it's been long active.robotron3k
- Now they are touting traditional Chinese meds as the cure...robotron3k
- Not true. Watch:shapesalad

- Essentially it causes inflammation in your lungs and you can't get enough oxygen into your blood - SARS.shapesalad
- But with professional care, as highlighted in that video, there is a chance of recovery.shapesalad
- And depends on age, gender, immune system, how the virus has mutated.shapesalad
- The issue is, it's perhaps present without symptoms = people spreading it unknowingly. So highly contagious.shapesalad
- And not enough known at this time about the mortality rate due to china covering up, fudging numbers and cremating dead immediately without autopsy.shapesalad
- LOL @ watching the "news" on this. So much speculation and rumors and utter nonsense. TV news is so reckless.nb
- Fuckin reckless indeed... But still unanswered question, does it act like sickle cell anemia and affects certain races vs others?robotron3k
- Yes you misunderstood. It only has something like a 2% mortality rate based on what I read.yuekit
- So why we freaking out then?NBQ00
- "If you’re infected it basically means death sentence"...lol, where did that idea come from?yuekit
- Cmon guys it doesn't much not to be total idiots...the info is out there, just takes a minimum of reasoning/judgment to see what is true and what is nonsense.yuekit
- My impression is governments are concerned because it's an unknown new virus...and because even 2% could be significant if there are millions of cases.yuekit
- But in terms of actual danger, this not much worse than the flu. Less lethal than past epidemics like SARS, based on what we know right now.yuekit
