BEIJING — The Philippines on Sunday reported the first death from the new coronavirus outside of China, where authorities delayed the opening of schools in the worst-hit province and tightened quarantine measures in a city that allow only one family member to venture out to buy supplies. The Philippine Department of Health said a 44-year-old Chinese man from Wuhan, the epicenter of the outbreak in central China, was admitted on Jan. 25 after experiencing fever, cough and sore throat. He developed severe pneumonia, and in his last few days, “the patient was stable and showed signs of improvement,” the department reports. “However, the condition of the patient deteriorated within his last 24 hours resulting in his demise.” The man’s 38-year-old female companion, also from Wuhan, first tested positive for the virus and remains in hospital isolation in Manila.

NEW: The F.D.A. refused to accept an application from Moderna for its mRNA flu vaccine.

Its reason: The agency did not think Moderna compared the new vaccine to one of the best flu shots available. The company spent $750M+ on a 41,000 person study.

This week marks a year since 10% of the CDC work force was fired. We are more vulnerable to the next pandemic,outbreak monitoring is crumbling, measles is basically endemic again,vaccine guidelines are now RFK Jr fan fiction.
All it took was one year.

"Stop a U.S. Coronavirus Outbreak Before It Starts "
"If the virus is silently spreading among people without a connection to China [...] then it might take dozens of infections to notice an outbreak. By that time, an epidemic will be hard to prevent."

Second, these expanded criteria should translate into broader screening. It’s crucial to identify cases of secondary spread, in which someone catches the virus from another person who hasn’t recently been to China. Containing the virus will also require more labs that can perform diagnostic tests. Right now only the CDC is running tests, and the agency is showing signs of strain. It’s taking CDC about 36 hours to turn around results, even with strict limitations on who should be tested. Expanded screening will further stretch the agency. CDC is planning to distribute test kits as soon as this week that would allow designated public-health labs to run the test. Private test developers need clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to distribute or use tests. But that will take some time. Developers need access to samples to be sure their tests are reliable, and companies have to submit paperwork for FDA review.

Joe Biden: Trump is the worst possible leader to deal with coronavirus outbreak

(Jan 29, 2020)
#Coronavirus

USA TODAY OPINION Subscribe Sign In Joe Biden: Trump is worst possible leader to deal with coronavirus outbreak President has blithely tweeted that 'it will all work out well.' Yet the steps he has taken have only weakened our capacity to respond. JOE BIDEN | OPINION CONTRIBUTOR Updated 12:32 p.m. EST Jan. 29, 2020 Trump has rolled back much of the progress President Obama and I made to strengthen global health security. He proposed draconian cuts to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Agency for International Development — the very agencies we need to fight this outbreak and prevent future ones. He dismissed the top White House official in charge of global health security and dismantled the entire team. And he has treated with utmost contempt institutions that facilitate international cooperation, thus undermining the global efforts that keep us safe from pandemics and biological attacks.

FP SIGN IN SUBSCRIBE This article was published more than 6 years ago VOICE Trump Has Sabotaged America's Coronavirus Response As it improvises its way through a public health crisis, the United States has never been less prepared for a pandemic. By Laurie Garrett, a columnist at Foreign Policy and former senior fellow for global health at the Council on Foreign Relations. JANUARY 31, 2020, 11:07 AM When Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO), declared the Wuhan coronavirus a public health emergency of international concern on Thursday, he praised China for taking "unprecedented" steps to control the deadly virus. "I have never seen for myself this kind of mobilization," he noted. "China is actually setting a new standard for outbreak response.

If I were in high school today, forced to go in person and told the school cannot enforce masks, I would show up every morning wearing spaghetti straps, the shortest skirt I could find, and a midriff top-just to test the theory that the school cannot enforce a dress code. LET THE PROTESTS BEGIN.

Tweet from Bernie sanders that lists 8 countries with the number of uninsured in each country with caption “now, more than ever, we need a universal, Medicare for all, single-payer health care system.” 6 of the countries list zero people. The US has 30 million people without health insurances.
