The CoronaSphere Lounge Episode 12: The Case for Masks

Victor David Hansen is correct. The ChiComs discovered their first case of corona in early November, 2019. They did not alert WHO until 12 Jan 2020 and Trump banned air travel on 30 Jan 2020. With the interchange of people of the left coast with China, this virus undoubtedly got here and seeded many locations and people probably went on from November until January unchecked and unnoticed. No test existed and this was probably (as he states) attributed to the influenza A or other cold corona viruses (there are 4 of them that commonly circulate). Until the virus built up to a certain level and did not cause any spikes in deaths or serious illness, it would be classified as flu. We do not actually test for influenza, even of many people admitted to the hospital. We do much better recording flu related deaths. But dead bodies are also not tested and this virus would not have shown up on any flu test as it is a cold virus.

I had two acquaintances,one 63 and the other 83, came down with very severe cases of what was attributed to the flu. Both led to pneumonia and the 83-year old nearly died and was in the hospital 2 months. Neither was even tested for the influenza virus although both illnesses were attributed to it. Thankfully the both survived. They will both be given the antibody test for corona. Both these cases occurred in late December and early January before corona was on the dashboard. I would be almost certain both of them had the corona virus. We need to massively do the antibody testing to determine how far and wide the virus has already spread. We could already have 10-15% or more of the population immune. Without that number we also cannot determine the actual mortality rate (deaths/total population and deaths/infected population.) The current test is a snapshot in time. The media continually treats the newly identified positive infections as if they were showing a rapid increase in new cases. No, it is a rapid increase in detected current cases. The proportion of positives to total tests remains almost constant in every state. The total population of current infected and previously infected, now immune, could tells us that. The antibody test is only a few weeks old. It must be deployed widely before we go into a long term depression. The recession is already cooked into the books. And NO I don’t think Trump is getting good advice from Fauci and Birx. Fauci would shut the economy down until the virus spread goes to zero; we would no longer have a country if we did that.
