Didn't that rushed SARS vaccine induce narcolepsy in a bunch of people it was tested on?
it was a disaster and didn't get very far. it should be noted SARS vaccine research didn't stop, its been going on since 2003 without success and this is fundamentally same as SARS. granted a lot less resources were put towards it after it went away but its still an active area of research given it was always possible to come back, and it did. if 17 years didn't do it, i wouldn't hold out hope for anything in the next 18 months.

remdesivir (a more general anti-viral, not a vaccine) seems like it's not going to work and may be even more harmful with the bodies response

another attempt at using lopinavir-ritonavir (hiv drugs) was a failure

Most of the deaths will be attributed to CAP w/ acute respiratory distress syndrome in the absence of testing and the Republican party will insist that Trump saved us all.

Statistics will show that we have an additional 400-500k pneumonia deaths this season that are 'unattributed".

Business as usual in the smoothbrained right wing.

extremely cool cops are doing this and then locking people up in overcrowded prisons which COVID-19 is sure to turn into an even deadlier place to be

By the time one is detected, there will likely already be dozens with all the good our testing is doing.

They still aren't really testing in Ohio.



quote:

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention posted a map of US states and territories with one or more labs that are using diagnostic tests for the novel coronavirus.

All states are listed as currently testing for coronavirus, except Alabama, Maine, Ohio, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Wyoming; those states are listed as being in progress, according to the map.

Guam, Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands are all listed as being in progress, as well. The CDC says people should contact their state health departments with questions about testing. The information is provided by the Association of Public Health Laboratories, the CDC said today.

The CDC is now generally updating coronavirus case totals by noon on weekdays. CDC’s numbers close out at 4 p.m. ET the day before reporting. The most up-to-date case counts will come from states, CDC officials have said.

CNN’s tally relies on state totals and won’t always match CDC’s count – CNN has already counted at least 163 US cases, including 114 cases in 16 states detected through the US public health system.

According to the update Thursday by the CDC, there are now 149 confirmed and presumptive positive cases of novel coronavirus in the United States.

Today's update from CDC includes 46 people who were aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship, three people repatriated from China and 100 US cases.

Across the country: US cases are those detected and tested in the United States through US public health systems since January 21. Among the 100 US cases, there have been 10 deaths, according to CDC’s count.

The 100 US cases are in 13 states, according to CDC: Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Rhode Island, Washington and Wisconsin.

I think it was doing that early on in Italy

The Netherlands is still refusing to test most people who want to be tested. Today in parliament an MP told a story about someone she knows who was sick and called 5 times to various doctors and health agencies, begging to be tested, willing to pay for it, and they told that person no. A week when they expanded the criteria to cover all people who had been in Northern Italy, not just the quarantined villages, it was found that they and their spouse both had it (and had been at work all week). Most people do not qualify for testing

At the end of the debate most parties agreed that it was being handled properly and no further action should be taken at this time
