4 Hours Ago, 5 Brits Test Positive for CoronaVirus in French Ski Chalet

 

Feb. 8, 2020

Five Britons, one of them a child, have tested Positive. They were in close contact with another man, who had been on a 3 day trip to Singapore last month. He then flew to the French Alps for a few days before returning to the UK.

The Lancet Finds that 73% of Confirmed Cases of Coronavirus were Men as of Jan.2

 

By Jan 2, 2020, 41 admitted hospital patients had been identified as having laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection.

 

Most of the infected patients were men (30 [73%] of 41); less than half had underlying diseases (13 [32%]), including diabetes (eight [20%]), hypertension (six [15%]), and cardiovascular disease (six [15%]).

 

Median age was 49·0 years (IQR 41·0–58·0). 27 (66%) of 41 patients had been exposed to Huanan seafood market.

Chinese Lab Finds That CoronaVirus was Engineered to Be More Infectious to Asian Males

 

The new Coronavirus hitting China is definitely a bio-weapon.

 

Researchers in India have identified HIV insertions in the coronavirus that could only have been put there intentionally.

 

Chinese doctors have discovered the Coronavirus is designed to attach to lung receptors that are Five times more common in Asian males than in African or Indo-European males.

 

Asian females also have less than half the amount of these receptors than Asian males.

 

From the sauce Abstract:

 

A novel coronavirus (2019-nCov) was identified in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China in December of 2019.

This new coronavirus has resulted in thousands of cases of lethal disease in China, with additional patients being identified in a rapidly growing number internationally.

 

2019-nCov was reported to share the same receptor, Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), with SARS-Cov.

 

Here based on the public database and the state-of-the-art single-cell RNA-Seq technique, we analyzed the ACE2 RNA expression profile in the normal human lungs.

 

The result indicates that the ACE2 virus receptor expression is concentrated in a small population of type II alveolar cells (AT2).

Surprisingly, we found that this population of ACE2-expressing AT2 also highly expressed many other genes that positively regulating viral reproduction and transmission.

 

A comparison between eight individual samples demonstrated that the Asian male one has an extremely large number of ACE2-expressing cells in the lung.

 

In addition, the distribution of ACE2 is also more widespread in male donors than females:

at least 5 different types of cells in male lung express this receptor, while only 2~4 types of cells in female lung express the receptor.

 

This result is highly consistent with the epidemic investigation showing that most of the confirmed 2019-nCov infected patients were men (30 vs. 11, by Jan 2, 2020).
