Re: WW3 Europe front. UPDATE page 532 -February 2024, the decisive month
I have been trying to get people to understand that is known and published since Jan 30th in the NEJM through a case study of contagion during a business conference in Germany, that nCov2019 is extremely contagious so all official figures are meaningless.

The official numbers might not be intentionally false, but the fact is that anyone that is infected starts being infective the next day, and symptoms start no earlier than a week after, so this thing was out of control since the beginning, and this rate of contagiousness is key to understand the harshness, ruthlessness and even disregard for economically suicidal Consequences of the measures taken by China. This thing is already spread trough the world and we had no way to see it coming.

[link to www.nejm.org (secure)]

“Transmission of 2019-nCoV Infection from an Asymptomatic Contact in Germany“

Anyone with a half decent working brain can take a look at figure 1 of this paper and understand its deep implications.
 Quoting: Red Hot Chilean Pepe



This is the main reason why only a few people believe in my model : the confirmed cases are too few compared to my numbers, which make them believe that my numbers are bogus.

For instance, they see the number of infected for today, according to my model, to be between 2.4 and 3 million infected outside China, and the official confirmed cases to be under 400 outside China.

But they fail to realize that the vast majority of the infected people are asymptomatic, the virus being in the incubation period.

More than half of the infected ones are contagious...and the virus keep spreading.

Over 80% of infected people with symptoms are mild cases, and almost none of them will go to a hospital. They will just pop pills for fever and cough...and that is it.

But they are highly contagious, being in the symptomatic phase.

Very few are serious enough to go to a hospital, and most of them are in India and Africa, where there are virtually no testing kits.

Needless to say that a fraction of a fraction of a fraction are tested...and the results will be announced, officially, 1-2 days later.

I might modify my numbers slightly, to account for a lower infection rate of the asymptomatic and higher for symptomatic...but because there are so many cases that will go undetected, the numbers won't differ too much.

I could be off by 10-15%, maybe...but really, when there will be 50 million infected outside China (Feb 13th-Feb.14th), would it really matter if there are "only" 40-45 million instead 50?

Or would it matter that this number will be on February 15th instead 13th?


Very soon my model will prove wrong or right. By the end of February, if the hospitals in certain countries (Singapore, Thailand, South Korea) will not be crowded with nCoV infected people, not only that my model will fail, the good news will be that the pandemic is going to die off before affecting too many people outside China.


I will stop updating my model on February 15th. There will be no point in doing it : the cases outside China will either explode from mid-February onward...or not.

Either way, the numbers won't matter anymore : we will either be doomed or we will dodge the bullet.

I hope we dodge the bullet. What freaks me out is the unprecedented and economically suicide measures implemented in China. No one in its sound mind would shop Himself a leg off if not absolutely certain that was the only way to stay alive.

I will leave this here, Just a reminder of what some allegedly powerful people wish for the world, and to keep that in mind at all times when thinking about anything that can be perceived as a global threat, specially if it’s origin is as puzzling as in the case of the nCov2019.

Maybe you should spend more time on researching.

Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong authorities, in the light of the cases in the last 48 hrs, came back with same results :

AT LEAST half of the asymptomatic cases are infectious.

Did you read the paper “ace”? Did you see how two Germans that never had any direct contact with the Chinese woman got infected because they had contact with the German that had contact with the Chinese woman?

There is really no point in updating past February 15th.

Most I can do, but that really depends on how things evolve next week (Feb 10th-16th) in Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and Japan, is to have a new, adjusted model, based on new data, for the week of Feb.17th-23rd.

It's not about the trolls. It's about the model.

I expect the number of confirmed cases to rise significantly next week, outside China.

If they do not, I will rework the model, and the result will probably be that this virus is just not that bad outside China.

And if it's not that bad, I no longer care about numbers...we dodged the bullet.


The entire reason for my model is to see IF we're fucked or not.

From the beginning I said that February 15th-16th are CRITICAL DATES.

Basically, and I will put this as simple as I can, if by February 16th, the number of OFFICIALLY confirmed cases outside China is going to be around 800...it's BAD NEWS.


My personal expectation is that the number of cases outside China, on February 16th will be close to 1,000.

If we will have 800-1,000 or more confirmed cases at the end of February 16th, outside China, there is no point to update the model...it's SHTF at the beginning of March.

Numbers won't change the outcome.

Re: WW3 Europe front. UPDATE page 532 -February 2024, the decisive month
FEBRUARY 9, 2020 ASSESSEMENT AND POTENTIAL NON DOOM OUTCOME – The next 10-14 days should tell with decent certainly how this virus will play out and the potential outcome. I stand by my previous statement that everyone’s personal outcome will be largely determined by where you live. India, Africa and third world countries will be hit the hardest because of low level healthcare and other social deficiencies (education, hygiene, communications, support, etc.) Sorry truth sometime is hard to swallow. USA, EU and other select countries on the opposite end of India and Africa will survive much better. Additionally USA only has two neighbors, Canada and Mexico. I have always believed USA’s geographic location is very advantageous for many reasons. USA is hard to invade without easy detection and also not to easy to get to. This leads to another aspect of this CoV virus situation. Airline traffic is still coming into the USA. But what type of individual can afford to make the trip? These few statements are just a glimpse of why I am optimistic about the USA being able to “minimize the hit” this virus will deliver to all countries on earth. Again, the next 10-14 days will tell but if the infected numbers do not increase with least the same rate as what Wuhan reported (should be much higher than what Wuhan has reported) then we certainly will have some answers.

One potential outcome might be – Only Chinese nationals that received certain vaccines will potentially die even with hospital care but do transmit the virus. All others who become infected with access to good home healthcare will survive a very bad flu. Regardless if pneumonia sets in hospital care is needed to recover. The above possible scenario is for USA and other developed counties too only. I fear slums have little or no chance, and little just left the room.

Finally, here in the USA I am carefully watching how Trump handles these next 10-14 days. He is very “market” focused but I believe he eventually will put the people before the markets. But when? He will not run and hide like others and is not afraid to make a wrong decision, as he knows how to recover from a wrong decision. So if he begins to make CoV announcements (tweets) that adversely affect the markets that is a clear indication this is most serious and other more severe actions will be forthcoming. He has already stated “the USA will come out good from this” but it may have been a statement to protect markets only as Xi lied to him and he has yet to get solid intel. But he will eventually get excellent intel and certainly in the next 10-14 days.

The vast majority of confirmed cases are serious enough to go to a hospital.

Those 800 confirmed cases are outside Africa, India, S&C.America, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and other countries (who do not have testing kits or don't report cases), which are about 4.2 billion people.

There are 6.3 billion people outside China.

So, 800 confirmed cases for about 2.1 billion people, which is about 1/3rd of the cases outside China.

Hence, the real number of serious cases is actually 2,400, but only 800 are tested and confirmed usually 24-36 hrs. after testing.

Now, serious cases are roughly 18% of the total SYMPTOMATIC cases.

Which means that there are around 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases outside China, with 82% of them being mild cases and confused with a light flu, and will not go to a hospital, hence, they are undetected and untested and, ofc, not confirmed...but they ARE 13,300 REAL people.

Now, in order to have 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases, who are out of incubation phase which is usually 14 days, according to latest data, applying a 2.2 denominator (the R0) for each "hop", and a "hop" is maximum 24 hrs. (it is usually less) it means that there are 2.2 x 2.2 (13 times in row) = 11,165 infected but ASYMPTOMATIC people for 1 of the each 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases.

Which is 11,165 x 13,300, roughly 148,500,000 infected people in total (asymptomatic+mild cases+serious cases) OUTSIDE CHINA.

Yes, 800 is a drop in an ocean...the problem is that those 800 confirmed cases cannot exist if there aren't 148,5 MILLION infected behind them.


I hope I made myself understood.

Re: WW3 Europe front. UPDATE page 532 -February 2024, the decisive month
I already posted this on the main Wuhan flu page but it bears noting.

The interesting part is even best case scenario too much money has been lost right now.
If by majic all would be healed the wave of bankruptcies in China is still going to destroy the economy. They just wasted their new years spending binge and are locking down for the month. Supply chain fail no matter what now.
I keep seeing hopeful stories of we open Monday last week too. Followed by later in the day stories of why quarantines extend another week then another week.
If your local grocer doesn't open and get paid for a month he shuts down. If your local plumber sits and watches tv instead of fixing toilets he loses his truck.
If your local union worker sits on his can and doesn't work, well he may not lose his job but unless he works for the government he doesn't get paid and then his bills default.
This is a cascading failure already. Financially we are hooped no matter what now.
go to the store and buy what ever cheap crap you usually buy that is Chinese made. It won't be there next month.
I finally understand what I was told back in November, if you are looking at something right now buy it, if it costs 5 bucks now it will be 50 or a 100 later.
I had no idea what he meant, and did not really listen, but I get it now.

Which is 11,165 x 13,300, roughly 148,500,000 infected people in total (asymptomatic+mild cases+serious cases) OUTSIDE CHINA.

Yes, 800 is a drop in an ocean...the problem is that those 800 confirmed cases cannot exist if there aren't 148,5 MILLION infected behind them.


I hope I made myself understood.

Dear Sir:

I fully understand now! uhoh

The math makes this whole mess frightening! uhoh

I suppose you are using exponential math?

For example a MAG 2.0 earthquake is ten times stronger than a MAG 1.0 earthquake and a MAG 4.0 quake is one thousand times stronger than a MAG 2.0

Is my train of thought correct?

Also, please let me know what you think about this:

Re: WW3 Europe front. UPDATE page 532 -February 2024, the decisive month
OP, I hope with all my heart that you are wrong and that I am wrong.

However, you make a good case and back up your reasoning.

You have helped me make a hard decision. I am going to isolate my wife and I ASAP.

We have a daughter in high school who will graduate this semester. She refuses to call in sick. I totally understand how bad she wants to graduate. If she calls in sick for two weeks, she will not graduate this semester.

So, I have to isolate wife and I in a different part of our house and allow the daughter to have her part of the house. I plan to cut off the AC, vents, and seal the doors with two barriers of heavy polyethylene.

Really hate to do this, but wife and I have a much higher chance of dying than the young one if we get this.

I have a bio suit to use in case the kid is sick and we have to enter to care for her.

Keep up the good work and stay healthy.

Just completely wrong.

There isn’t even an epidemic and even if there was, theses numbers are absurd.

I don't quite understand the OP's calculations, but considering the numbers he reached, hundreds of millions would already be infected in China and tens of thousands would already be dead. I do not know.

When can we expect to read "a new, adjusted model, based on new data, for the week of Feb.17th-23rd."

Thanks for the great thread!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78309681


On Feb. 16th. around 20:00 GMT, or a bit earlier.

Unless there is like a tsunami of data next week, that need a lot of adjusting.

If so, the model will be posted late night on Sunday, Feb.16th, early Monday morning, Feb.17th.
 Quoting: deplorable recollector


Well I for one thank you OP.
What most people refuse to acknowledge because nobody wants to be seen as racist, or elitist, but statistical models require that we honestly look at and appraise the lowest common denominator in the equation.
If that means people who will not wash, people who spread germs deliberately by licking ice cream , choose to laugh at those taking precautions, choose to ignore the facts in front of them as inconvenient, choose to be animals rather than humans, well, they must be counted too.

More confirmation of this being highly contagious within hospital conditions:

Much Less than 50%:


Question What are the clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)–infected pneumonia (NCIP) in Wuhan, China?

Findings In this single-center case series involving 138 patients with NCIP, 26% of patients required admission to the intensive care unit and 4.3% died. Presumed human-to-human hospital-associated transmission of 2019-nCoV was suspected in 41% of patients.

Meaning In this case series in Wuhan, China, NCIP was frequently associated with presumed hospital-related transmission, 26% of patients required intensive care unit treatment, and mortality was 4.3%.

All great truths begin as Blasphemies.

Chinese National Health Commission has changed their definition of #WuhanCoronavirus "confirmed case" in their latest guidelines dated 7/2. Patients tested positive for the virus but have no symptoms will no longer be regarded as confirmed.

YES PLEASE!!!!

OP, your info is invaluable. Please don’t let the trolls discourage you. Those of us with an IQ higher than a beer can of Halcyon Daze malt liquor desperately WANT your insights.

.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75214035


It's not about the trolls. It's about the model.

I expect the number of confirmed cases to rise significantly next week, outside China.

If they do not, I will rework the model, and the result will probably be that this virus is just not that bad outside China.

And if it's not that bad, I no longer care about numbers...we dodged the bullet.


The entire reason for my model is to see IF we're fucked or not.

From the beginning I said that February 15th-16th are CRITICAL DATES.

Basically, and I will put this as simple as I can, if by February 16th, the number of OFFICIALLY confirmed cases outside China is going to be around 800...it's BAD NEWS.


My personal expectation is that the number of cases outside China, on February 16th will be close to 1,000.

If we will have 800-1,000 or more confirmed cases at the end of February 16th, outside China, there is no point to update the model...it's SHTF at the beginning of March.

Numbers won't change the outcome.
 Quoting: deplorable recollector


Thanks for the great thread!

That said, I've read your entire thread and maybe I'm missing something.

Why is 800-1,000 cases OUTSIDE of China so significant? That's just a drop of water in an ocean compared to the billions of people who live OUTSIDE of China.

Thanks for your time, patience, and consideration. hf
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78309681


The vast majority of confirmed cases are serious enough to go to a hospital.

Those 800 confirmed cases are outside Africa, India, S&C.America, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and other countries (who do not have testing kits or don't report cases), which are about 4.2 billion people.

There are 6.3 billion people outside China.

So, 800 confirmed cases for about 2.1 billion people, which is about 1/3rd of the cases outside China.

Hence, the real number of serious cases is actually 2,400, but only 800 are tested and confirmed usually 24-36 hrs. after testing.

Now, serious cases are roughly 18% of the total SYMPTOMATIC cases.

Which means that there are around 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases outside China, with 82% of them being mild cases and confused with a light flu, and will not go to a hospital, hence, they are undetected and untested and, ofc, not confirmed...but they ARE 13,300 REAL people.

Now, in order to have 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases, who are out of incubation phase which is usually 14 days, according to latest data, applying a 2.2 denominator (the R0) for each "hop", and a "hop" is maximum 24 hrs. (it is usually less) it means that there are 2.2 x 2.2 (13 times in row) = 11,165 infected but ASYMPTOMATIC people for 1 of the each 13,300 SYMPTOMATIC cases.

Which is 11,165 x 13,300, roughly 148,500,000 infected people in total (asymptomatic+mild cases+serious cases) OUTSIDE CHINA.

Yes, 800 is a drop in an ocean...the problem is that those 800 confirmed cases cannot exist if there aren't 148,5 MILLION infected behind them.


I hope I made myself understood.

Does the 800-1000 infected outside China apply even if they are all located on a single cruise ship?
