    I’d recommend though not to follow me but to make a list and add me (and other reliable sources to it). The deluge of posts from me might annoy some on their main feed! Plus you can come back to the list at any time to read (or search) my posts.

  2. The answer from other reports is these patients condition has got worse.

  4. Another example of “had a fever but it went away for a bit” but tested positive for 2019-nCoV later. This intermittent fever has been reported a few times (and seems to hinder diagnosis too). No good studies of it but WA state patient had fever break then URT symptoms appeared.

  5. And for public health that makes all the difference because you can differentiate these cases from colds or flu or “just feeling a bit crap but I’ll go into work today”. Asymptomatic vs subclinical doesn’t really matter for public health as the outcome is the same.

    There are a bunch of papers circulating about 2019-nCoV that are essentially rubbish. The general meme is “... shares homology over x bases with y”. Pretty much you can vary x and y to cover the entirety of life...

    “...2019-nCoV Spike protein contains a 39 nucleotide...sequence insertion, which shares homology to fish genomic sequence of Myripristis murdjan, an abundant fish type in Indo-Pacific Ocean.“ This is getting silly now isn't it?

  10. It must be serious! compare with Las Vegas/Atlantic City/Branson if a 2019-nCoV epidemic occurs in the US.

    Random musing. I hate the term pandemic (ironic given book title). 3 separate concepts: 1. Geographic distribution. 4 continents, 2 with local XMSN. But really China with sustained dz 2. Proportion of pop'n infected: 1/150,000 in China 3. Severity or # of deaths. <500

    It's the 2296 patients showing severe symptoms that intrigues me, but even more intriguing is the remaining 16000 + confirmed cases whose status is not recorded as recovered, dead or ???

    Any word in how many of the total cases are now well but never went to hospital, so don't get listed among discharged? Or is *every* well cases included under "recovered"

    Familiar threats are factored into the baseline. Novel threats increment it.

    Hong Kong’s first fatality has just occurred. The 39-year-old victim, a Whampoa resident, suffered from heart failure this morning. He was diagnosed 31 January, the city’s 13th case. 【武漢肺炎.最新】首宗死亡個案 39歲住黃埔男病人心臟停頓

    : China's case count has topped 20,000. Their new numbers are out. Up 3235 cases & 64 deaths. Their totals are 20,438 confirmed cases & 425 deaths. Global confirmed case count is roughly 20,600 & 426 deaths.

    In epidemic control terms that fine line doesn't matter much where everything is based on fever checks. If not having a fever is considered ok to carry on, stopping spread fails. China's campaign is fever-based. There's the rub.

    I want to be clear about what this means and does not mean: This does not mean that there are no asymptomatic infections. More proof of such infections may come out very soon. And it certainly does not mean that there is no spread from people with very mild symptoms.

    A fine line between “mild symptoms” and “Asymptomatic”. Limited cough, slight headache, intermittent tiredness or, sore throat. Have one of these-is that mild symptoms or Asymptomatic? What is clear is people are infectious quite long time and from quite early after infection.

    This paper includes an early version of EPI_ISL_403928 from which contained numerous artefacts of the sequencing process. This was subsequently corrected and the current version shows no such divergence. Current analysis here:
