Here’s what we know – or think we know – about the new coronavirus: China has claimed that, in Wuhan, which is Ground Zero for the virus, 1,975 people have confirmed cases of coronavirus, with 324 in critical condition, and that 56 people have died. In addition, there are 2,684 suspected cases. The virus is a relative of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (or SARS), another coronavirus virus that hit in 2002. Experts are currently saying that the new virus is not as severe as the 2002 outbreak, although it may be more contagious. So far, that’s not too bad.

But here’s what we also know: China has quarantined more than 35 million people and stopped all travel in or out of Wuhan during the busy Chinese New Year season. China has also announced that it plans to build a 1,000-bed hospital within a week to treat coronavirus. Those stories either indicate that China is taking very seriously its responsibility to its people and to the world at large to stop an inconvenient and somewhat dangerous virus from spreading or it means that the Chinese government is scared and panicking.

One nurse in China says it’s the latter. The nurse, wearing heavy protective garb that hides her identity, has published a video claiming that 90,000 people have the coronavirus in Wuhan

I am here to tell the truth. At this moment, Hubei Province (including the Wuhan area), even China, 90,000 people have been infected by corona virus so far. How much do you know about corona virus? If a person who is infected with coronavirus, if you can’t isolate someone who is infected with the virus, if you can’t make the right treatment to them, at least 14 people will be infected by that virus at once. That means 14 people who already infected times 14 people sooner or later. Now we are having the Chinese New Year. Every Chinese wants to go back home. We want to have some time with family. We want to have some dinner together. However, we are in a special situation right now. I would like to say that everyone who is currently watching this video should not go outside. Don’t party. Do not eat out. Once a year, we celebrate Chinese New Year. If you are safe now, you will be able to meet again your family healthy next year. Let’s talk about the current medical situation in Hubei (including Wuhan). At the present, all medical systems in Hubei. . . . We don’t care what the government says, I will tell you through social media. Everyone, please donate masks, glasses, and clothes to Wuhan. Please help us. Please donate disposable goggles, disposable masks, and disposable clothing. Currently all resources are not enough. Now all the doctors in all the hospitals in Wuhan area now, on the front line to prevent coronavirus. We are all standing at the deadline. I want everyone watching this video to pay attention to what I say. I will say it again. Please do not go outside during the Chinese New Year. The reason I work so hard is I want my mother and my whole family to be healthy. I hope you understand everything what I say. Some family members, relatives, friends, and some people aren’t getting this news right now. If you are watching this video, please spread this video away. We must be aware of this issue. This is a political challenge. (It seems the government keep the secret about this issue.) We should inform everyone that coronavirus is now growing up to secondary mutation. In other words, first-generation mutations can cure symptoms. But, if a second-generation mutation occurs, something really terrible happens will come. That’s because the infection is not just for one person, but for everyone around you (at least 10 people). If so, coronavirus will explode. I will ask again. Never go out and do not eat out. Thank you very much.

To date, 63 Americans are being tested in 22 states as possible coronavirus victims. You may want to stock up on disinfecting gel. Also, don’t eat bats, mice, or snakes. They are more likely to be disease vectors than our domesticated animals, which have been bred for human diets and are raised, slaughtered, and cooked in ways that minimize disease.

Meanwhile, the inimitable Paul Joseph Watson points out that, even now, both to “save the planet” and to show sophistication, the Left is encouraging Americans to eat animals not normally part of the Western diet – and contending that saying otherwise is racist (warning, not for those with weak stomachs or opposed to obscenities):
