    Next day up to 150lbs which should cover most Chinamen is $320. With 14 day incubation period, you definitely could go 2nd day and get it down to $207.

    Average kidney goes for $15k in China, but we just need him to cough on tine and I imagine he’d be so happy to be in a US hospital afterwards he’d be thrilled with a few hundred. I’m thinking with Uber and a few drinks at airport bar, this could be done for like $750.

    for those of you feeling like everythings going to work out fine and this is all overblown, this is literally china's official state response to the crisis this mornin:





    the chaos is apparently entirely our fault.

    It still had a good run left in it at the time, 2012...but yeah, u gotta just get out before something real happens to the market. Plus, this isn't something you could have bought back after the drop: it was liquidated and all 'investors' got peanuts for it.

    I was not really interested in this thing myself.

    ok so...

    2% fatality is the 'official' number but lets not tuck into how credible that is right now, lets just roll with it.

    the number thats interesting is the widely accepted '25% critical condition' figure. what that means, is that 25% of the people who get infected will end up in critical condition and require hospitalization to live. if they get that level of care, the vast majority will (in theory) recover.

    so ask yourself this:

    how many major cities anywhere in the world are actually ready to take in say, a thousand critically ill patients?

    ny presbyterian is the largest hospital in nyc. it has 2650 staffed beds, many of which are taken of course. pretty wild to think that if 3 people infect 3 new people every day for a week, we will likely max out the available beds there.

    i think we'd be fine considering that china is essentially a 3rd world country and the fatality rate is only 2% there.

    i think we'd be fine considering that china is essentially a 3rd world country and the fatality rate is only 2% there.

    I’ve saw a few doctors/scientists who dealt with SARS say that there is a good chance when they study this in retrospect, the mortality rate will be in the tenths of a percent. Structurally they say it’s more similar to viruses that they readjusted much lower after the fact.

    When tine posted that 75000 suspected cases number, they were of that thinking. That many are asymptomatic, and that if you have only 350 deaths or whatever with 75-100k cases, you’re looking at a much lower mortality rate. They weren’t positive of anything as scientists aren’t positive of anything they can’t prove, but that was their feeling. Obviously every facet of exactly what we are dealing with is colored by the fact it’s occurring in China where they aren’t transparent and have an incentive to downplay the situation. They were basically saying if the fatalities are even close to accurate, they suspect a far higher infection rate, which suggest actual mortality is quite low and confined to the weakest and most susceptible populations.

    I guess we will see quickly. If those Thai doctors who pounded it with antivirals to the point it was eradicated in 48 hours found the magic bullet, it would seem a matter of time and logistics to get that to the infected areas and you could probably quickly confine it. I can’t take this thing seriously until a few bodies start dropping in the first world that has ready access to medications.
