Latest data indicate that about 18% cases are severe, of which 3% require intensive care; and that the fatalities are mostly old patients and those with pre-existing conditions. Many medical personnel, almost 2,000 are getting affected with a few deaths.<\/p>\n<p>For those who study viruses, the large number of mild cases is reason for optimism. \u201cThis looks to be a bad, heightened cold \u2014 I think that\u2019s a rational way of thinking about it,\u201d said Matthew Frieman, a virologist at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. \u201cNot to diminish its importance \u2014 it\u2019s in the middle between SARS and the common cold.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The world was almost driven to a frenzy, and they certainly have us hanging, are we going to have a plague onto mankind or we witnessing viral hysterics? <a href=\"https:\/\/drsircus.com\/general\/deadly-viral-and-economic-reapers\/\">Huge economic consequences have already manifested<\/a> and will continue to do so even if we get the all clear sirens. As we shall see below, pneumonia kills thousands every day, and then we have flu deaths, which are very heavy this time of year. The coronavirus outbreak in China has been getting more headlines than anything yet catastrophe is striking with many <a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"http:\/\/endoftheamericandream.com\/archives\/10-plagues-that-are-hitting-our-planet-simultaneously\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">other plagues, which are being ignored<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In relation to a cruise ship docked in Japan, \u201cMany people are testing positive on the ship, but that is because we are testing everyone on board, regardless of their medical condition,\u201d said Shigeru Omi, the chief director of the Japan Community Health Care Organisation. \u201c<strong>And 70% of those testing positive are not showing any symptoms at all<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Doctors in Hubei province are reportedly <a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/coronavirus-covid19-diagnosis-diagnosed-china-162933283.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">classing people as \u201cdefinitely infected\u201d if they present with tell-tale symptoms, alongside a CT scan showing a chest infection.<\/a> Covid-19\u2019s initial symptoms are vague and flu-like, such as fever, cough and breathlessness.<\/p>\n<p>This might seem a little funny to some for CT scans do not detect viruses though they will expose the patient to large amounts of X rays. A CT scan can show complications of pneumonia, abscesses or pleural effusions and enlarged lymph nodes but is not a test for viruses. It cannot tell the difference between viral pneumonia and bacterial and fungus driven pneumonia or pneumonia caused by toxic exposures.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-banner--article-inside-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"c-banner--article-inside-variation-light-teal tracked is-special\">Learn a system of medicine that is safe, simple and affordable! <a class=\"no_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/drsircus.com\/natural-allpathic-protocol-info\/\" data-ga-category=\"Middle Post Banner\" data-ga-label=\"Learn How To Banner\">Discover Dr Sircus Natural Allopathic Medicine<\/a> \u00bb<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Before this change to diagnosis, patients were confirmed via a nucleic acid test. Nucleic acids are substances in living cells, making up the \u201cNA\u201d of DNA. Suspected patients had respiratory secretions tested for a specific nucleic acid sequence known to be in the Covid-19 virus.<\/p>\n<p>In the most severe cases of viral infections patients develop pneumonia, which  causes cough and breathing difficulties, as well as a rapid heartbeat, sweating and shivering, and chest pain. However, it is not clear how many of patients who are testing positive for pneumonia would have got it anyway without any help from the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>Why are we freaking out so much about coronavirus, so worried that we are allowing health officials shut down the world and kill off the world economy because of it? Pneumonia kills 2.56 million people a year around the world. That works out to 7,013 people per day. Are the health authorities tapping into these deaths and labeling some of them coronavirus victims? We are jealously counting coronavirus deaths but where is the daily counting of pneumonia deaths or the 26,191 premature deaths from cancer every day, are we forgetting about them too?<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC2909231\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pneumonia is one of the leading causes of death in adults and children in China<\/a>. In urban areas, pneumonia is the fourth leading cause of death, and in rural areas pneumonia is the leading cause of death. A recent article in the Chinese literature estimated that each year in China there are 2.5 million patients with pneumonia and that 125,000 (5%) of these patients die of pneumonia-related illness. Another study said, in China more than <a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/31891579\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">4.2 million pneumonia admissions<\/a> were identified in 184 Chinese cities between 2014 and 2017 probably with approximately 200,000 deaths.<\/p>\n<p>You might rightly ask, \u201cSo why hasn\u2019t pneumonia been labeled an epidemic in China in past years? Why hasn\u2019t the World Health Organization, at the very least, declared a state of emergency for China based on pneumonia?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For US adults, pneumonia is the most common cause of hospital admissions other than women giving birth. About 1 million adults in the US seek care in a hospital due to pneumonia every year, and 50,000 die from this disease.<\/p>\n<p>Pneumonia is only called \u201ccoronavirus\u201d if the patient is tested and the virus is discovered, though tests cannot be depended on for accuracy of diagnosis. With millions coming down with pneumonia every year in China alone it tells us that <strong>there is a gigantic pool of people with pneumonia, in China, who can be falsely labeled \u201cdeaths from the coronavirus<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There are other categories of illness like \u201clower lung infections\u201d and \u201cinfluenza.\u201d that can be merged with pneumonia, in the rush to diagnose people with the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignCenter\"><strong>Worse Infections than Coronavirus Spreads Around the World<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A hushed panic is playing out in hospitals around the world as a deadly fungus is spreading. Individual institutions, national, state and local governments have been reluctant to publicize outbreaks of this drug resistant infection, arguing there is no point in scaring patients \u2014 or prospective ones, meaning they do not want to scare patients away from going to hospitals. Officials are still scrambling to keep a lid on it as the infection is spreading around the globe.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Johanna Rhodes, an infectious disease expert at Imperial College London said \u201cWe are driving this with the use of anti-fungicides on crops and we have no idea where it\u2019s coming from. We\u2019ve never heard of it. It\u2019s just spread like wildfire.\u201d Thanks to the over-prescription of antimicrobial drugs had also laid the groundwork for this relatively new germ that preys on people with weakened immune systems according to the <em><a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/04\/06\/health\/drug-resistant-candida-auris.html\" target=\"https:\/\/drsircus.com\/sodium-bicarbonate-baking-soda\/why-use-baking-soda-for-fungus-infections\/_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New York Times<\/a><\/em>. The infection \u2013 a fungus known as Candida Auris, <strong>kills almost half of all patients who contract it within 90 days<\/strong>, according to the CDC \u2013 as it\u2019s impervious to most major anti-fungal medications.<\/p>\n<p>First described in 2009 after a 70-year-old Japanese woman showed up at a Tokyo hospital with <em>C. Auris <\/em>in her ear canal, the aggressive yeast infection has spread across Asia and Europe \u2013 arriving in the US by 2016.<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignCenter\"><strong>5G As An Additional Etiology?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A post on Facebook claims that Wuhan, China, the centre of the new coronavirus outbreak, was where 5G was first rolled out. It suggests that 5G has damaged peoples\u2019 immune systems and so boosted the virulence of the common cold. \u201cThe main implication of the claim\u2014that 5G can impact immune systems\u2014is totally unfounded. There is no evidence linking the new coronavirus to 5G.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That is the opinion of one person that mirrors what anyone in the mainstream would probably assume, yet we read that Switzerland, one of the world\u2019s leaders in the roll-out of 5G mobile technology, <strong><a class=\"external external_icon\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/848c5b44-4d7a-11ea-95a0-43d18ec715f5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">has placed an indefinite moratorium on the use of its new network because of health concerns<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Behind China\u2019s virus problem is a host of serious health problems caused by some of the worst pollution in the world, severe overcrowding (put too many rats together in a too small a space and see what happens) and now the added insult of high frequency radiation provided by 5G and you have a cocktail that still is only killing 2 to maybe 3 percent of those affected by the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>You will never read of people dying of pollution or from too much sugar in the diet nor from 5G or magnesium deficiencies.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/drsircus.com\/general\/mild-mannered-coronavirus\/\">https:\/\/drsircus.com\/general\/mild-mannered-coronavirus\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mild Mannered Coronavirus<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7511","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7511","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7511"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7511\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7511"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7511"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7511"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
