I only can take a guess or speculate that is based on rumors and hope.
USA never gives jobs to incompetent politically appointed children of the elites
Solution … Build wall …. Go/stay home behind wall
Those that don’t die from the new virus will not die from the old regular virus.
The new virus is saving 10 of thousands of people from dying from the old virus

US Military Initiates “Global Campaign Plan For Pandemic”
https://www.zerohedge.com/health/us-military-initiates-global-campaign-plan-pandemicI have have seen very few articles on how the coronavirus could effect military readiness.
Sick soldiers, sailors and pilots. They move around a lot in close quarters. Seems an ideal setting to catch and spread this thing.
Ah, the Military, ain’t they grand.
I’m leaning towards carelessness and sloppiness, not diabolical subterfuge, on the part of the Chinese in the accidental release of Covid-19 from the Wuhan P4 Lab.
Just look at how the Chinese are handling the situation, the Keystone Cops would have done a better job.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/world/national-security/cia-crypto-encryption-machines-espionage/
But what none of its customers ever knew was that Crypto AG was secretly owned by the CIA in a highly classified partnership with West German intelligence. These spy agencies rigged the company’s devices so they could easily break the codes that countries used to send encrypted messages.The operation, known first by the code name “Thesaurus” and later “Rubicon,” ranks among the most audacious in CIA history.
“It was the intelligence coup of the century,” the CIA report concludes. “Foreign governments were paying good money to the U.S. and West Germany for the privilege of having their most secret communications read by at least two (and possibly as many as five or six) foreign countries.”February 13, 2020 at 4:37 pm #53902Dave NoteParticipantThis article explores the idea that simply keeping unspeakably dangerous and deadly pathogens is not a smart move if you can’t contain them. Having them even to study seems more and more like a self fulfilling prophecy of doom. Nobody is perfect, and handling these pathogens, well, you need to be perfect.
How Deadly Pathogens have Escaped the Lab — Over and Over Again
Research into dangerous viruses and bacteria is important, but for the deadliest pathogens, it’s not clear the benefits are worth the risks.

Amigos, good work keeping up. It’s hard to break news to all-y’all (collective plural form of “y’all”)
http://www.johndayblog.com/2020/02/losing-battle-last-night-china.htmlThis is very important basic science research. Wuhan coronavirus binds to ACE-2 receptors, deep in the lungs. Everybody has them. Some people have more.
It has been speculated that older men and Asians have more.
Well, yes, if older Asian men smoke more tobacco. BINGO!
In this study, we investigated the disparities related to race, age, gender and smoking status in ACE2 gene expression and found significantly higher ACE2 gene expression in lung tissue of smokers compared to that of non-smokers. This may explain the reason why more males (56% of 425 cases) were found in a recent epidemiology report of 2019-nCov early transmission by China CDC11. We didn’t observe significant disparities in ACE2 gene expression between racial groups (Asian vs Caucasian), age groups (>60 vs <60) or gender groups (male vs female).
file:///C:/Users/John.MEADOWS/Downloads/preprints202002.0051.v1%20(1).pdfElijah Magnier has Syrian-war update:
It is a new strategic turn in the Syrian war that Maarrat al-Nu’man, Khan Touman, Saraqeb, Tel el-Eiss, Rashedeen 4&5 are now liberated. It is an indication that Turkey will find it hard to protect its jihadists in the long run. The stability of Syria requires the liberation of its entire territory. Syrian stability is in the interest of Russia and its national security objectives. Russia walked into the Levant to stop the war. Its credibility is on the line. It has a large naval base offering unique access to the Mediterranean. It is also in the interests of Russia to eliminate al-Qaeda and all groups adhering to their takfiri ideology, notwithstanding their different priorities and names. The Uzbeks and Uighur jihadists in the Levant have no place to go and are expected to fight to the last man.
Turkey is showing its teeth to Russia by refusing to recognize Russian sovereignty of Crimea and offering 33$ billion to Ukraine in arms. Turkey is aiming for a more effective and recognized role in Libya where the central government is officially requesting Ankara’s support. However, the situation in Syria is different. Turkey knows its presence in Syria cannot last for long, and that the liberation of Idlib, even if it is not on the agenda today, will happen soon. It is only a question of time.
https://ahtribuFebruary 13, 2020 at 10:06 pm #53907WESParticipantJohn Day:. Your speculation a few weeks ago on how the covid-19 virus escaped into Wuhan market via lab assistants selling lab bats is still the best story I have read!
Yes poor Cecelia Payne not getting mention ranks up there with Keynes not getting credit for negotiating the conditions at the end of WW1 that created WW2.
It might take a few more years but eventually Syria will regain control of it’s borders. They simply have to make staying in Syria increasingly more expensive for their unwanted guests!
February 13, 2020 at 10:19 pm #53908WESParticipantSince China is doing nothing to contain the covid-19 virus, it is now up to the rest of the world to try and contain it.
Example:. Spain’s world mobility conference in Barcelona was recently cancelled because people noticed that thousands of Chinese were expected to attend.
One by one, companies cancelled their attendance! No doubt this was triggered by the companies’ own employees not wanting to catch the virus!
Basically if where ever you want to go is going to have any Chinese there, then you don’t want to go there!
February 13, 2020 at 10:31 pm #53909WESParticipantNow that Brexit has come and gone, I see that nothing has changed!
The sun wasn’t shinning before Brexit and still isn’t shinning!
Good old sunny England!
Once in 1983 when I was slaving away in a Siberian coal mine, I got 10 days parole, so I choose to escape to sunny England! Incredibly I encountered no rain! After returning to Siberia, an expat asked about my trip. I told him no rain, mostly sunny! He exclaimed to me! “You are lying! There is no way in hell you were in England!

February 13, 2020 at 10:46 pm #53911WESParticipantWhen it comes to Boeing, moving their headquarters to Chicago, sealed their fate.
This move indicated that the accountants had successfully sieged control of Boeing away from the engineers who had built Boeing into a successful aircraft maker.
No engineer would have agreed to shifting the 737 Max’s center of gravity forward the way an accountant would! Engineers would have insisted upon a new wing design with longer landing gears!
Notice Boeing after a year, is still trying to fix this by fixing software! By now engineers would have designed, tested, and built new wings!
Sometimes stupid can’t be fixed!
February 14, 2020 at 4:12 am #53912VietnamVetParticipantWaPo; “NASA finds ‘fundamental’ software problems in Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft”.
NASA/Boeing found a second software bug after launch and its failure to get to the correct orbit. They had to update the spacecraft to get it back to earth. More problems were found later. NASA admits to inadequate oversight.
This isn’t a bug. It is deregulation. Also, China is the sole source of most of America’s generic pharmaceuticals. The “just in time supply chain” is a means for the wealthy to get a bigger cut of the economic system. At the core of the problem is the Meritocracy’s accommodation to elite corruption to get their own cut of the pie. The Wuhan coronavirus pandemic shows how fragile the system really is. If the President and Congress don’t get off their asses, there will be no ventilators, intensive care beds or protective gear to treat the millions of old farts that will die at their hands. Too bad we will be too sick and frail to take on the Establishment one last time.
