My only "agenda" is to give you and your friends a focus for your unspecified hatred and general sense of confusion.this is a forum, not your private mail inbox. the whole point of it is promoting unsolicited contributions.
looks more like a case of persecutory delusion and divinity complex. contrary to what you might believe, not everything in this forum is about you or your beliefs.
i agree it was not really necessary to comment on you using this thread to regurgitate your political agenda again but ... i'm glad to have our lion back anyway!
do you mean "western u.s. news"? coverage of the outbreak is quite regular in europe, afaik it's still considered "western". of course it can't compete with stuff that really matters, like the tragic sudden death of a sports hero.
Glad to hear that your cool with the "confusion" part, though
Just did another calculation. The statistics of this one is very shaky, but I tried to look at the number of cases reported outside of China. The most reliable numbers I have found were:
Nice work. Doesn't the accuracy of it depend on whether China is being forthright and truthful about the statistics?
If you look at the graph, you see that the orange dots are a model based on the official numbers. The grey dots are based on an estimate from Hong Kong University, saying that instead of 4,500 the true number might be closer to 45,000. That's rather inaccurate data to work with, but they both reach the same numbers within ~a week. Therefore it matters less whether the chinese numbers are accurate, as long as they are precise. Meaning that if they have decided to lower the official numbers, and I begin doubting that, then it would show once you start analyzing the data. I have seen examples of Chinese data that were very weird, but in this case they seem more honest than usual.
I think you're right. If the numbers are just roughly correct, then we will be somewhere around 1000-2000 cases outside China around a week from now. That'll give a much more accurate estimate.
My understanding is that those masks are next to useless after about 15 minutes of wearing them. I could be wrong........
Yes, as long as it's only old men kicking the bucket, then it's probably ok. Read that as well and noticed the female journalists having wrote that
According to this professor in virology from Nottingham university (you might call him an "expert"), they are pretty useless outside a hospital or a lab:

well, it's the rule of life, we old have to go first. one thing that would sadden me horribly is survive my own children. sadly small children are at high risk too.
