Wuhan virus (coronavirus) arrives in the USA

[Anonymous]

It spread through Singapore, which is high eighties every day.

You confusing spreading fast with slow spreading with no spreading.

Summer hot and humid kills a lot of germs once outside host so they don't infect that many that fast.
It gives people chance to manage this.

We are supposed to have a warmer than normal spring.

Good.

Does warm weather really slow the spread? Or is this one of those myths?

Let's see how it does in FL and AZ, as opposed to cool, unsunny Washington State.

Now that people know it has spread and will be testing this is going to be a daily headline for weeks since people will actively be tested now. Many many people lived with colds and viruses and “I think it’s flu but tested negative for flu” all winter and some almost certain unknowingly had this virus.

Singapores response to the virus has been hard hitting, implemented early and thoroughly. Far different from any other country. You cannot say all the reason for less spread in Singapore was due to temperature.

https://fortune.com/2020/02/28/singapore-coronavirus-contained-response/

The answer is maybe, and perhaps only with the unique combination of factors that Singapore brings: a top-notch health system, draconian tracing and containment measures, and a small population that’s largely accepting of government’s expansive orders. Few other countries battling an outbreak that’s now infected more than 83,000 globally and killed over 2,800, can replicate these circumstances.

Singapore was aggressive out of the gate and has continued to be. It was one of the first countries to impose restrictions on anyone with recent travel history to China and parts of South Korea. It has a strict hospital and home quarantine regimen for potentially infected patients and is extensively tracing anyone they may have been in contact with.

It’s charging a couple who gave false information on their travel history and taking away residency status from a person who breached his quarantine, among other punitive actions.

Singapore “will not hesitate to take strong action” against rule breakers, Law Minister K. Shanmugam said in a statement Thursday. “The deliberate breaking of the rules, in the current situation, calls for swift and decisive response.”

My theory is that if the coronavirus originates in certain climate and area it does not fare well in not native conditions. Just like you would move polar bear to Sahara and lion to Antarctica. Not optimal comdition. MERS died fast once out of the area of origin.

And I think the lethality of a virus in inversely proportionate to ease of spread.

This is the reason. The infected people died so quickly they didn’t have time to spread it.

The spread is EXPONENTIAL. Sorry for yelling, but we need to familiarize ourselves with the concept of exponential spreading. Please spend a few minutes googling that. It means it won't be increases "in the high eighties" every day, but it will move to hundreds then thousands every day, quickly, until we give up testing.

The government should take action now like the hospitals are already full because that’s the only way to slow the spread of an exponentially growing contagion like this. They must act proactively and not reactively. Unfortunately they won’t do that and in a week or two some people won’t be able to get treatment and we will see preventable deaths. That’s the part that everyone needs to pay attention to, the fact that the death rate is much much much higher if critical patients cannot get oxygen. Wuhan has a 5% fatality rate. That would be devistatinf here.
