Wuhan Coronavirus

In an Obama administration, the team trained to spot these viruses would have been in place and it would have been a global effort, lead by the US. More than likely capped early on like all the others.

France’s flagship aircraft carrier the Charles de Gaulle is returning to its home port early after about 40 crew members showed signs of COVID-19 symptoms, the armed forces ministry said on Wednesday.

man, all these countries (including us) just need to harbor all the freaking ships. no cruises, no military ships, all that shit.

No shit. It's not like there is still a Cold War on with missiles pointed at each other.

Or you know, just stop shore leave

This

It's just not worth the risk, to them and to our security

There are a shit ton of labs doing research on COVID 19 right now and I assume the way they can do that is that they have a way to reproduce the virus.

If its possible to reproduce the virus, then is it also possible to reproduce the antibodies that are in plasma from people that recovered?

I read up on that, and it seemed like using these antibodies risks the recipient's body treating them as invaders.

Here's an interesting article regarding antibody drugs research:

https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/06/gla ... nd-crispr/

the guy that gets rich is the one that comes up with an artificial intelligence method that works like the bodies to identify a virus and then create antibodies to defend against it. i mean, somehow the human body figures out a way to develop antibodies to a virus like COVID 19 that it has never seen before. And every single person that had the disease and recovered, there bodies all figured out the exact same thing. So, there has to be a way to figure out what all of those bodies are doing exactly alike independently of each other.

So, you put the virus into a lab container, let the AI system go to work and then reproduce whatever antibodies it creates into some kind of a drug that can be given patients early to help fight it off.

History could portend a bad omen for President-elect Donald Trump: recessions are more common under Republican presidents.

Every Republican president since Teddy Roosevelt in the early 1900's endured a recession in their first term, according to an analysis from Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at stock research firm CFRA. Four Republican presidents suffered through two recessions while in office and Republican President Dwight Eisenhower presided over three. Meanwhile, Democrats have largely skated past the recession quicksand. Four in five Democratic presidents saw no recessions during their terms since 1945, Stovall says.

While history isn't gospel, the track record makes the odds that a recession might appear during President Trump's term all the more likely, Stovall says. "From a probability perspective, a recession is very likely in President Trump’s first term in office," he says.

Interestingly, recessions aren't the only indicator of economic slowdown that appear during times of Republican presidents.

Real GDP growth, a measure of economic activity in the U.S., averaged 3.33% during the 64 years and 16 presidential terms going back to President Truman in the mid-1940s, according to a 2013 research paper by professors of economics Alan Blinder and Mark Watson at Princeton University. With a Republican in the White House, though, the economy's growth slowed to 2.54%, the economists found. With a Democrat in office, growth jumped to 4.35% on average. A variety of other economic indicators, such as per capital GDP, stock market returns, real wages and the change in the unemployment rate, are also more robust with a Democratic president, the economists found. Unemployment fell by 0.8 percentage points with a Democratic president on average, while it rose 1.1% with a Republican.

"The U.S. economy has performed better when the President of the United States is a Democrat rather than a Republican, almost regardless of how one measures performance," according to the report titled "Presidents and the Economy: A Forensic Investigation."

Academics and market historians are trying to figure out why the economy tends to stall out with a Republican president. Such research that is all the more timely given Trump's largely unexpected win for the high office this month. Research offers a few suggestions, including:

* Random "good luck." Democrats have had the fortune of being in office when favorable random shocks go their way during their terms, Blinder and Watson found. Big drops in oil prices, positive boosts in productivity and also optimistic consumer outlooks tend to occur during Democratic administrations, they said. None of these factors are tied directly to the actions of the president, the professors found, These three factors explain upwards of 62% of the better economic performance.

* Lag times for policies to kick in. Evidence pointing to better economic growth under Democrats is an illusion created by the timing of when presidents enter office, says Timothy Kane at the Hoover Institution think tank at Stanford University. Factoring in the one-year lag between the time a new president is elected and when the policy effects kick in, "there is no statistically significant advantage for either party in the White House," Kane says. Presidents inherit problems that were created by policy decisions before they were elected, Kane says. Presidents Reagan, Bush and Obama faced recessions after they were inaugurated in 1981, 2001 and 2009, respectively he says.

* The business cycle. The economy follows a natural progression of expansion, peaking and contraction which is more powerful than the president, Stovall says. "I think the business cycle trumps the presidential cycle, and Fed policy is most important of all," he says. Currently, leading indicators like housing starts, consumer confidence and the Conference Board's Leading Economic Index don't signal a looming recession.



But the cycle inevitably turns, it's just unknown when. Trump faces a ticking clock in terms of the ongoing economic recovery's life, Stovall says. The economic expansion period the U.S. is in now is 89 months old making it the fourth longest expansion of the 21 since 1902 and twice the length of the median expansion, Stovall says.

So far this site has proven rock solid and provides up to the date info. Kwebber posted it weeks ago & I'm glad he did since I check it like 4 times a day now. For my county and town stats I use articles listed in NJ.com but that only covers NJ.

HOLY SHIT! I just saw a bunch of Mexicans coughing all over some sushi in a farmers market in Oakland, NJ!!!!

I've actually been kinda of proud about how everybody around here and nationwide has coped. Of course, stores finally limited items to 2 per way after that barn door was open. One local store (not named) had a creative solution. Tired of seeing total strangers from out of town sweep in and wipe the shelves clean of TP, paper towels, etc. They keep the shelves empty, keeping everything in back and people that live in this town can go to the manger and tell her what you need and she will bring it out. Brilliant. Also, I have not seen one instance of price gouging on anything. Stiffer state and federal laws obviously helped. But I sense since we elected our greatest President in quite a while back in 2016, may the morals that have made this County great for almost 250 years are returning. HOLY SHIT- INCOMING STAPES-CQ-TUESDAY- FCHMERTZ TOTAL MENTAL MELTDOWN. 6.5 ON THE RICHTER/

So easily duped. The Kennedy Center is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with the IRS, and according to the IRS, tax-exempt charitable organizations are barred from making political contributions.
