"The Coronavirus Saga Continues...."


 
Hello John and Doves,

Some people are actually waking up to see the 2019-nCoV viral infection as the world's next pandemic. 25 countries, as of February 6, have reported cases.  There are 3 cruise ships in quarantine now.  No one is letting them dock. The Japanese cruise ship (with 3700 passengers) now has 61 confirmed cases on board out of some 100 tested.

It's becoming apparent to the world that China isn't reporting accurate numbers - for their number infected, their number dead.  "According to WHO on 5 February, the risk assessment for the outbreak is very high in China and high at the regional and global level."  https://reliefweb.int/report/china/coronavirus-situation-update-dg-echo-who-ecdc-echo-daily-flash-06-february-2020

Containment of this coronavirus is no longer possible and experts are warning the world to prepare for global spread. The world was hoping that China could contain this.  Impossible.

"There is no doubt this is going to end up in most countries eventually, said Amesh Adalija, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security and a spokesman for the Infectious Diseases Society of America....the U.S....plans to quarantine at military bases potentially more than 1,000 Americans evacuated from China's Hubei province.  State health departments are activating emergency programs to isolate the potentially infected - a piecemeal approach that could range from specialized facilities to hotels.  Some hospitals have tents in stock to use as emergency isolation wards."https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-02-05/coronavirus-update-governments-prepare-for-pandemic

On February 1, our Defense Secretary Mark Esper approved housing at 4 military bases for the quarantine of 1,000 American evacuees from China.  HHS (Health and Human Services) will provide for the transportation, care and security of the evacuees.  DOD personnel are not suppose to have any direct contact with any of the evacuees. https://www.foxnews.com/health/coronavirus-cdc-seventh-case-us

On February 5:  "Multi planeloads of travelers from Wuhan will arrive this week at Travis AFB CA, Marine Air Stn Miramar CA, Lackland AFB TX, and Eppley Airfield, NE. (AlertUSA)

And now on February 6 they are planning on 'tertiary' locations (third set of locations):

SMS Alert Text:  DOD announces military installations near 11 major airports that could house 2019-nCoV quarantine subjects should HHS facilities become filled.  These are tertiary locations, and HHS already has primary and secondary locations identified that are not DOD facilities. (AlertUSA Homeland Security Threat and Incident Notification Service)

If needed, up to 20 people will be quarantined and observed at each location.  Again, HHS is responsible for all transportation, care and security of the evacuees.

Possible backups are:

JB Pearl Harbor-Hickam, HI
Great Lakes Training Center Navy Base, IL
Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base, TX
March ARB, CA
Travis AFB, CA
Dobbins ARB, GA
Fort Hamilton, NY
Naval Base Kitsap, WA
Joint Base Anacostia, DC
Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, NJ
Fort Custer Training Center

To date, 198 people are being housed at the March Reserve Base near San Bernadino, California.  These are American evacuees from Wuhan...their flight into the U.S. was suddenly diverted by the CDC - the flight was suppose to land at the Ontario International Airport, 35 miles east of L.A....but for some unknown reason the CDC suddenly changed plans.  https://thecommonsenseshow.com/conspiracy-health-united-states/cdc-diverts-flight-american-evacuees-military-base-california-coronavirus-pandemic-spreads

Setting up quarantine facilities for people with possible BSL-3 or BSL-4 viruses is no easy or simple task.  Is the HHS up to this??  Infected individuals can be asymptomatic and/or show no obvious symptoms for up to a 14 day incubation period (which could be longer) so how can anyone monitor these people appropriately or safely?  And most U.S. hospitals are not set up to take these kinds of patients.  China is reporting that hospitals in the stricken areas are overrun, overcrowded, out of supplies.  The Chinese have now sent in military medics to help Wuhan hospitals.https://www.foxnews.com/health/coronavirus-china-1400-military-doctors-nurses-wuhan-hospital-philippines-death

These American evacuees will be held for a period up to 14 days - if they show no symptoms they will be released into the public.  It is known some infected people are asymptomatic.  And the incubation period for some may be longer than 14 days.  And people being reported as cured are carrying active virus.

It is quite apparent that this coronavirus is not getting the special attention that it deserves by news outlets.  All the MSM is focused on the failed impeachment, the SOTU address, and now the backlash from the Democrats.

If is quite obvious from China's response that they know how dangerous this virus is.  They have taken drastic steps to quarantine numerous cities, each with millions of people.  Over a dozen cities are in quarantine - we are talking some cities with 9, 10, 11 million people.  The president of China has been told how extremely dangerous this biological warfare agent is.  Keeping people off the streets and home, closing businesses, and shutting down manufacturing plants, allowing one family member per family leave their home to get essentials every 2 days, spraying the streets, monitoring people with drones - this is not a simple flu that will soon peak and die off.  We didn't see this response with SARS, MERS - and China started these extreme and drastic responses to this outbreak with less than 40 deaths!

We see China's response to this - and still the virus is out of control...and other countries are at a loss as to how to contain it in their countries!  The numbers of infected and dead grow daily.  Will cities outside of China become new Wuhans? 

What is in the foreseeable future?  This is just the beginning...it's just started.  The U.S. is not moving quickly on this or taking this as seriously as it should.  Nor are other countries.  This is still at the level of a 'public health emergency' in the U.S. and other countries, but for China it's an absolute catastrophe!

Will this move right on in to the Tribulation period?  Some models are predicting the infection of hundreds of millions of people by the first of summer.  Surely our redemption draweth nigh!! 

God help us all.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Maranatha!
