So we have about 10 cases and one death so far. Last year, the infection continued into May and fizzled in June, so I suppose, since there was a late start, that we are going to get a mini sars outbreak, except that the southern hemisphere is coming into winter and maybe it'll swing down here. People will react a lot quicker to cut down vectors of transmission this time around, so maybe it'll not get far.
Maybe it's the old story of clumsy, careless lab workers getting their comeuppance for sloppy work and it won't travel far at all.
So far, officialdom seems to have done a bad job of managing sars; especially Canadian quacks who managed to infect a lot of people. One would think that doctors, hospitals and officialdom would know about diseases and preventing propagation, rather than creating a brewery.
However, over the decades, I've seen how blundering and careless and profit focused most doctors are. Misdiagnosis and mistreatment have been common. I have a lengthy list now.
They should be deguilded, privatized, and treated like any other business. They'd have to live and die by their brand. If they buried a patient who should have lived, it would be like an airline crashing a bunch of people - others would think the airline is NOT one to travel on.
