No. 1. All viruses mutate, really fast compared to mammals, all the time. Mutation is a random process occurring by errors in copying genetic material. The resultant genetic changes are thus random. Mutation by itself means very little unless ...
China: U.S. Should Refrain From Overreacting On Virus Outbreak
- ekan commented Feb 2, 2020
Yes, I am aware. Known antiviral drugs also worked on SARS back then. None of that means that the Wuhan virus has a direct relation to hiv in any scientific/medical meaning of the word, let alone that someone "engineered" hiv-like behaviour in this ...

Not this BS again. Every virus attacks cells and hijacks their reproduction machinery to make more copies of itself! That's basically the definition of virus. Fatally or non fatally. With 2.5% mortality rate and mostly killing people who have ...

You look it up "for me", heh? Wow, thank you bones, even though it was absolutely unnecessary - I know how evolution works, even down to molecular level. There it is: "viruses undergo evolution and natural selection, JUST LIKE cell-based life". The ...

That will depend on the number and extent of second and following waves of infections spawned by the carriers from the first wave that originated from Wuhan. I'd say considering the systems and routines put in place in 2003 to deal with SARS are ...

You doubt?? But you do not know? Yet you try to judge who is expert and who is not? Hmmmmmmm....... May I suggest you go and find a few articles and Wikipedia entries to read and then come back after you know.

Yes, a new strain of a known family. Is like you go to a car dealer and drive out a Toyota Corolla, which is new relative to your old Toyota Camry. Both are Toyota sedans, so you drove the new one right away. Thew new one did not turn to be an ...

Correct, I think the Wuhan virus infection effect on currency markets as far as the major 8 currencies are concerned is minor (but not 0) compared to other events and developments, such as the last week's ECB rate announcement (it turned out to be ...

Some numerical data from a real Chinese source I just got: 4633 is infected, 6972 is suspected, 106 is dead, 73 is confirmed recovered The other file is China data broken down by provinces (Hubei, where the epicentre Wuhan is, is on top).

Too late. Cable went below 1.30 hours ago. And this: "The two sides will have until the end of the year to hammer out a trade deal." - No, they won't. BoJo has absolutely no power to make EU conform to his contrived deadline entirely set to please ...
GBP/USD Targets $1.30 Ahead Of BoE, Brexit

Again, bones' typical way to debate - make claims, then twist and turn in the next shot after the response arrives When did I say it is a non-event on the markets? I said the virus appears 1) not to be as lethal as SARS 2) that I'd rather in this ...

Cashbox, it is a serious illness and takes long time to recover. It is a coronavirus pneumonia, not herpes - it either eats your lungs and you die, or your immune system goes after the virus, kills it, and you recover. I just asked a Chinese friend ...

Only from time to time? Why not all the time? They need to report to their Wall Street overlords every quarter, don't they. I am sure can use a bit more profit from a designer virus they can manufacture as easily as Foxconn can build the next ...
