Closing schools for eight weeks or more may have a greater impact on mitigating the spread of the novel coronavirus than two- to four-week closures, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has said.
Shorter-term closures will likely make little difference in the spread of the disease, new CDC guidance states, even as K-12 school districts across the country began announcing school closures within the shorter time frame.
Closing schools also comes with its own setbacks, namely a potentially negative impact on academic outcomes, which the CDC also acknowledged in its updated guidelines.
The Department of Education recently issued its own guidance to educators about its flexibility related to student absences and testing standards.
In any school closure, students could still congregate outside of school and spread the disease, the CDC acknowledged.
Other mitigation efforts, including handwashing and home isolation, “have more impact on (the) spread of disease,” the new CDC guidance states.

After Regan called media COVID-19 coverage ‘another attempt to impeach the president,’ Fox Business says it’s shifting resources
Just days after Trish Regan created a mini-firestorm by calling coronavirus coverage “another attempt to impeach the president,” Fox Business announced that her prime-time program is going on hiatus.
The network, whose parent company Fox Corp. shares common ownership with News Corp parent of MarketWatch publisher Dow Jones, announced Friday that “Trish Regan Primetime” and “Kennedy,” helmed by Lisa “Kennedy” Montgomery, would be off the air until further notice.
“Due to the demands of the evolving pandemic crisis coverage, we are deploying all resources from both shows for staffing needs during critical market hours,” the network said in a statement, as reported by Deadline.
Regan tweeted that she supported the decision, as “we must all do our part to keep colleagues safe”
On Monday night, Regan incurred the wrath of many with a segment in which she accused Democrats and the “liberal media” of using the coronavirus to “destroy the president,” going so far as to say that Democrats were blaming Trump for the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We’ve reached a tipping point,” she said, as a graphic reading “Coronavirus Impeachment Scam” appeared on the screen beside her. “The chorus of hate being leveled at the president is nearing a crescendo,” she intoned, “as Democrats blame him and only him for a virus that originated halfway around the world. This is yet another attempt to impeach the president.”
On the Fox News channel, “Fox & Friends” guest Jerry Falwell Jr. came in for criticism earlier in the week after suggesting that North Korea created the coronavirus to hurt America. Like Regan, he argued that concern over the virus was being weaponized as the “next attempt to get Trump,” and claimed people were “overreacting” to the pandemic, which has spread to 147,838 people and killed 5,539 across the globe.
Fox News staffers were asked this week to “keep in mind that viewers rely on us to stay informed during a crisis of this magnitude and we are providing an important public service to our audience by functioning as a resource for all Americans.” It’s scrapping live guests in favor of Skype interviews, encouraging workers to telecommute, and ramping up sanitization efforts in the workplace, according to a memo obtained by the Los Angeles Times, the Daily Beast and other news outlets.

As the stock market was having its worst day in 30 years on Thursday, customers at a Bank of America branch in Midtown Manhattan, the financial heart of New York, were lining up to take cash out of their accounts — sometimes tens of thousands of dollars at a time.
So many people sought huge sums that the bank branch, at 52nd Street and Park Avenue, temporarily ran out of $100 bills to fulfill large withdrawals, according to three people familiar with the branch’s operations. The shortage hit after a rash of requests for as much as $50,000, said two people who witnessed the rush.
The problem was limited to large bills — the bank’s A.T.M.s stayed stocked and customers with routine transactions were still able to take out cash. By Friday morning, the bank had refilled its supply of big bills, two of the people said.
But the desire for cash persisted: A teller at a JPMorgan Chase branch across the street said on Friday that there had been a “nonstop” stream of customers stockpiling cash over the past two days.
Bill Halldin, a Bank of America spokesman, said the bank had enough cash available at its branches meet its clients’ needs. “We don’t keep large amounts of cash in big bills in the branches because it’s dangerous for our employees and there is low demand,” he said.
Even so, it appears the deep level of fear that has set in on Wall Street — as weeks of market gyrations have wiped trillions of dollars of wealth — has also permeated people’s personal lives.

usahitman--2020-03-11--Is Coronavirus Getting Started or is it All Fake News?

First let me post the first theory about democratic states/governors who are declaring state of emergencies .
Seems like this is a last ditch effort of trying to destroy Trump , our economy and our nation..
They are trying to create chaos it seems .
Most of the stores are already cleaned out of cans , toilet paper , and especially hand sanitizer/cleaners and it ’ s only will get worse when more people panic from the media coverage .
Below is all the quotes from news articles which outline the lock-downs in America .
Ill post other theories below @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thing is that most of the democratic states/governors such as New York , California , Washington , Oregon , Colorado , Massachusetts , Rhode Island , New Jersey , Connecticut , Kentucky have declared state of emergencies which will last for a 30 day period .
Now we recently heard the national guard is on the way to New York to help contain the virus .
it ’ s only matter of time before the national guard shows up in these cities , which I quoted below .
So what is going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should stock up .
I took time off from the website to prepare my self… Many of you should be getting water/food and other supplies before the chaos gets worse .

A public health emergency gives the state power over quarantine , while a civil preparedness emergency grants the governor broad powers over state institutions , allowing him to restrict travel , close public schools and buildings and more .

With that in mind , all Region 14 schools will close indefinitely , he said .
So far , Connecticut has tested 75 patients for the coronavirus , including 19 tests Tuesday for which the state is awaiting results .

N.J. Gov Phil Murphy declares state of emergency in New Jersey State of emergency declared in California over coronavirus Way For The Rich To Get Richer Now @ @ @ @ @ @ @ other theories .
Most know Trump will be reelected again ; what a great way to control the markets by causing havoc globally to drive all global markets to a reset period which was about the time before Trump was elected .
The goal was to plan a epidemic ; First step is to sell stocks you have before the virus outbreak .
Step two ; buy the stocks at it ’ s lowest rates when the stock market crashed .
Now the plan is for them to wait till Trump is reelected @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Then they will cash on the profits .
Possible Way To Force Vaccinations/Disarming Of Public ?
Since the so called deadly coronavirus has made a global impact on humans ; the only method of control of the virus will be a vaccine .
But the bad thing about that is ; it wont work and will only cause more harm and issues among the population .
Vaccines don ’ t work period !
So under false pretenses they will make forced vaccinations mandatory ; as we already seen the religious exemptions already being @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we get on to the disarmament of the public ; with the passing of many ‘ red flag ’ laws across the nation ; state governments have already displayed they ’ re arm of resistance of taking control of gun control and allowing them to remove your guns via court order if they think any kind of danger is present .
So with the declaration of emergency in many states ; what would stop them from disarming the public if chaos erupts when people are under lock-down with no supplies ?
This just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could likely happen , or is just a test for another time in the future… Could this all be fake news ?
What if China started this fake news virus situation ?
Or could it be the United Nations ?
WHO ?
Not sure but it could all be a giant hoax which has worked so well to create panic and ways for governments to secretly pass laws/budgets and other nonsense bills that will fly under the radar because everyone is focusing on coronavirus .
What happened to Epstein news , what about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ but hasn ’ t gotten media attention ?
Surely other things are happening .
Don ’ t forget about the depopulation plan of the United Nations outlined in Agenda 21 and the others which have been planned since the beginning of time ?
One minute there is a man of TV claiming he was cured by bed rest , and drinking all gatorade .
When people start dropping dead in America much like Iran , China and Italy ; I might rethink this theory of fake news .
I just find it hard @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this fast and quickly if it wasn ’ t being deliberately sprayed on the public .
Or could it be coming in the air from the jet stream ?
How about radiation pneumonitis ?
This has similar x-ray images to those who had coronavirus- could Fukushima radiation finally made an impact on the world ?
Or is everything an unknown ?
Is it even true ?
Could these sick patients on the media be all actors ?
We didn ’ t trust the Mainstream media before ; so how can we do that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is always something that happens every election year .
I don ’ t think they can/will use this to postpone the elections…Proceed with caution .
I will be updating the site more ; I took a week off to prepare… You should do the same – better safe than sorry

Democratic Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear declared a state of emergency on Friday, March 6. “While the overall threat to Kentuckians is still low, we as a state are going to take every necessary action to protect our people,” Beshear said during a press conference. “So, about five minutes ago, I filed a state of emergency so that we would have every tool that we could need to address this issue and ultimately protect our people.” Beshear’s announcement came after the state confirmed its first case of coronavirus. As of Monday, March 9, there are four confirmed cases of coronavirus in Kentucky. Seventeen people have tested negative for the virus.
N.C. Gov. Cooper declares state of emergency over coronavirus
Democratic North Carolina governor Roy Cooper declared a state of emergency over COVID-19 at a noon press conference March 10. The declaration activates the Emergency Operations Center, which will help agencies coordinate their responses, according to a press release from Cooper’s office. A state of emergency also allows the state government to protect consumers from price gouging, increases county health departments’ access to state funds and makes it easier to purchase essential medical supplies, the release said. Dr. Mandy Cohen, secretary of the N.C. Department of Health and Human Services, outlined the state’s recommendations for people at high risk — people over the age of 65 or with underlying health conditions should avoid large gatherings as much as possible, including church services, concerts and sporting events. Cohen also recommended facilities that where many adults live, including nursing homes, long-term care facilities and correctional facilities, restrict visitation as much as possible.
N.J. Gov Phil Murphy declares state of emergency in New Jersey
Gov. Phil Murphy declared a state of emergency and a public health emergency on Monday, effective immediately, to “contain the spread of COVID-19” as the number of coronavirus cases in the state grow. “The State of New Jersey is committed to deploying every available resource, across all levels of government, to help respond to the spread of COVID-19 and keep our residents informed,” said Murphy in a statement. “My administration will continue to work closely with our federal partners to ensure that local health agencies on the front lines of the state’s response are equipped with the resources needed to further prepare our health care system for a broader spread of COVID-19,” Murphy said in a statement. By declaring a state of emergency and a public health emergency, Murphy gives the state more flexibility to waive or suspend rules “which would be detrimental to the public welfare during this emergency,” according to the order. It also helps increase access to resources such as health care and allows towns and counties to be reimbursed by the federal government for certain related costs. It’s the first time that a governor has declared a public health emergency under current state law, said Murphy’s communications director, Mahen Gunaratna. That order lasts for 30 days and would have to be extended after that, if needed, he said.
State of emergency declared in California over coronavirus
Standing in a state Capitol media briefing room flanked by health officials, Gov. Gavin Newsom officially declared a state of emergency in California over the novel coronavirus on Wednesday afternoon. The governor’s declaration came hours after California had announced its first death from the illness, which has now been reported in 12 counties in the state and sickened more than 50 people.
Way For The Rich To Get Richer
Now this theory is an addition to the other theories. Most know Trump will be reelected again; what a great way to control the markets by causing havoc globally to drive all global markets to a reset period which was about the time before Trump was elected. The goal was to plan a epidemic; First step is to sell stocks you have before the virus outbreak. Step two; buy the stocks at it’s lowest rates when the stock market crashed. Now the plan is for them to wait till Trump is reelected which they know they cant stop! Then they will cash on the profits.
Possible Way To Force Vaccinations/Disarming Of Public?
Since the so called deadly coronavirus has made a global impact on humans; the only method of control of the virus will be a vaccine. But the bad thing about that is; it wont work and will only cause more harm and issues among the population. Vaccines don’t work period! So under false pretenses they will make forced vaccinations mandatory; as we already seen the religious exemptions already being removed in the United States.
Now we get on to the disarmament of the public; with the passing of many ‘red flag’ laws across the nation; state governments have already displayed they’re arm of resistance of taking control of gun control and allowing them to remove your guns via court order if they think any kind of danger is present. So with the declaration of emergency in many states; what would stop them from disarming the public if chaos erupts when people are under lock-down with no supplies? This just plays into the FEMA/Martial Law conspiracy which could likely happen, or is just a test for another time in the future…
Could this all be fake news?
What if China started this fake news virus situation? Or could it be the United Nations? WHO? Not sure but it could all be a giant hoax which has worked so well to create panic and ways for governments to secretly pass laws/budgets and other nonsense bills that will fly under the radar because everyone is focusing on coronavirus. What happened to Epstein news, what about all the other stuff that has happened but hasn’t gotten media attention? Surely other things are happening.

usahitman--2020-03-01--New Scientist in 2004: Could 1918 flu virus escape from labs?

The 1918 flu virus spread across the world in three months and killed at least 40 million people .
If it escaped from a lab today , the death toll could be far higher .
“ The potential implications of an infected lab worker – and spread beyond the lab – are terrifying , ” says D. A. Henderson of the University of Pittsburgh , a leading biosecurity expert .
Yet despite the danger , researchers in the US are working with reconstructed versions of the virus at less than the maximum level of containment .
Many other experts are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the virologists I have spoken to have concerns , ” says Ingegerd Kallings of the Swedish Institute for Infectious Disease Control in Stockholm , who helped set laboratory safety standards for the World Health Organization .
Work on the 1918 flu virus is not the only worry .
Some experiments with bird flu have also been criticised as dangerous ( New Scientist print edition , 28 February 2004 ) .
Kallings and others are calling for international discussions to resolve the issues related to such work .
“ It is time for influenza @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” she says .
John MacKenzie of the University of Queensland in Australia , who investigated how the SARS virus escaped from high-level containment labs in east Asia on three occasions after lab workers became infected , agrees .
“ A meeting would be beneficial.
” The researchers working on the 1918 virus say their work is vital to understand what changes make flu viruses dangerous .
So far five of the 1918 flu virus ’ s eight genes have been sequenced , using fragments retrieved from victims of the pandemic .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ of these genes to modern flu viruses , or plan to – in effect partially recreating the long-vanished pandemic virus .
The latest work was done by Yoshihiro Kawaoka at the University of Wisconsin at Madison .
His team showed that adding the 1918 gene for the surface protein haemagglutinin to modern viruses made them far deadlier to mice .
The researchers also found that people born after 1918 have little or no immunity .
The team started the work at the highest level of containment , BSL-4 , at Canada ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they decided the viruses were safe enough to handle at the next level down , and did the rest of the work across the border in a BSL-3Ag lab in Madison .
The main difference between BSL-4 and BSL-3Ag is that precautions to ensure staff do not get infected are less stringent : while BSL-4 involves wearing fully enclosed body suits , those working at BSL-3Ag labs typically have half-suits .
Kawaoka told New Scientist that the decision to move down to BSL-3Ag was taken only after experiments at BSL-4 showed that giving @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) in advance prevented them getting sick .
This means , he says , that if all lab workers take oseltamivir “ they can not become infected ” .
Yet this assumes that the mouse results apply to humans .
And the findings have not been published .
In similar experiments , Terrence Tumpey ’ s team at the US Department of Agriculture ’ s poultry research lab in Athens , Georgia , got quite different results : they found that mice given oseltamivir still got sick and 1 in 10 died .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ s mice fared better .
What is more , all the safety precautions are aimed at preventing escape , not dealing with it should it occur .
If any of Kawaoka ’ s lab workers are exposed to the virus despite all the precautions , and become infected despite taking oseltamivir , the consequences could be disastrous .
“ I experienced disbelief…regarding the decision to relocate the reconstructed 1918 influenza strain from a BSL-4 facility to a BSL-3 facility , based on its susceptibility to antiviral medication , ” Ronald Voorhees , chief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Health , wrote on ProMED-mail , an infectious diseases mailing list .
Yet Kawaoka ’ s decision does comply with the US National Institutes of Health guidelines for BSL-3 agents : those causing “ serious or lethal human disease for which preventive or therapeutic interventions may be available ” .
In fact , he is considered unusually cautious .
“ Kawaoka should be applauded for using BSL-4 at all , ” says Richard Webby , a flu researcher at St Jude ’ s Children ’ s Hospital in Memphis , Tennessee .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the first to experiment with genetically engineered 1918 viruses , did all its work at BSL-3Ag .
Meanwhile , Michael Katze at the University of Washington at Seattle is planning to expose monkeys to aerosols of 1918-type viruses at BSL-3 , a step down from BSL-3Ag .
The recent SARS escapes were from BSL-3 labs .
“ We would have to do any such work at BSL-4 , ” says John Wood of the UK ’ s National Institute for Biological Standards and Control .
In the US , the differing standards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fact that experiments on engineered viruses such as the 1918 flu are approved on a case-by-case basis by Institutional Biosafety Committees ( IBCs ) , composed of local scientists and officials .
Critics say these are free to interpret the official guidelines in a way that suits them .
“ There is no effective national system to ensure consistency , responsibility and good judgement in such research , ” says Edward Hammond of the Sunshine Project , a biosecurity pressure group in Austin , Texas .
In a review of IBCs published @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would not provide minutes of recent meetings as required by law .
He says the IBC that approved the planned 1918 flu study at the University of Washington considered only one scenario that could result in workers being exposed to airborne virus – the dropping of samples .

Kallings and others are calling for international discussions to resolve the issues related to such work. “It is time for influenza scientists to find a consensus on containment,” she says. John MacKenzie of the University of Queensland in Australia, who investigated how the SARS virus escaped from high-level containment labs in east Asia on three occasions after lab workers became infected, agrees. “A meeting would be beneficial.”
Gene sequencing
The researchers working on the 1918 virus say their work is vital to understand what changes make flu viruses dangerous. So far five of the 1918 flu virus’s eight genes have been sequenced, using fragments retrieved from victims of the pandemic. Several teams have added one or more of these genes to modern flu viruses, or plan to – in effect partially recreating the long-vanished pandemic virus.
The latest work was done by Yoshihiro Kawaoka at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. His team showed that adding the 1918 gene for the surface protein haemagglutinin to modern viruses made them far deadlier to mice. The researchers also found that people born after 1918 have little or no immunity.
The team started the work at the highest level of containment, BSL-4, at Canada’s National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg. Then they decided the viruses were safe enough to handle at the next level down, and did the rest of the work across the border in a BSL-3Ag lab in Madison. The main difference between BSL-4 and BSL-3Ag is that precautions to ensure staff do not get infected are less stringent: while BSL-4 involves wearing fully enclosed body suits, those working at BSL-3Ag labs typically have half-suits.
Kawaoka told New Scientist that the decision to move down to BSL-3Ag was taken only after experiments at BSL-4 showed that giving mice the antiviral drug oseltamivir (Tamiflu) in advance prevented them getting sick. This means, he says, that if all lab workers take oseltamivir “they cannot become infected”.
Contradictory results
Yet this assumes that the mouse results apply to humans. And the findings have not been published. In similar experiments, Terrence Tumpey’s team at the US Department of Agriculture’s poultry research lab in Athens, Georgia, got quite different results: they found that mice given oseltamivir still got sick and 1 in 10 died. It is not clear why Kawaoka’s mice fared better.
What is more, all the safety precautions are aimed at preventing escape, not dealing with it should it occur. If any of Kawaoka’s lab workers are exposed to the virus despite all the precautions, and become infected despite taking oseltamivir, the consequences could be disastrous.
“I experienced disbelief…regarding the decision to relocate the reconstructed 1918 influenza strain from a BSL-4 facility to a BSL-3 facility, based on its susceptibility to antiviral medication,” Ronald Voorhees, chief medical officer at the New Mexico Department of Health, wrote on ProMED-mail, an infectious diseases mailing list.
Yet Kawaoka’s decision does comply with the US National Institutes of Health guidelines for BSL-3 agents: those causing “serious or lethal human disease for which preventive or therapeutic interventions may be available”. In fact, he is considered unusually cautious. “Kawaoka should be applauded for using BSL-4 at all,” says Richard Webby, a flu researcher at St Jude’s Children’s Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee.
Exposing monkeys
By contrast, the team in Georgia, the first to experiment with genetically engineered 1918 viruses, did all its work at BSL-3Ag. Meanwhile, Michael Katze at the University of Washington at Seattle is planning to expose monkeys to aerosols of 1918-type viruses at BSL-3, a step down from BSL-3Ag. The recent SARS escapes were from BSL-3 labs.
“We would have to do any such work at BSL-4,” says John Wood of the UK’s National Institute for Biological Standards and Control. In the US, the differing standards applied by different groups are due to the fact that experiments on engineered viruses such as the 1918 flu are approved on a case-by-case basis by Institutional Biosafety Committees (IBCs), composed of local scientists and officials. Critics say these are free to interpret the official guidelines in a way that suits them.
“There is no effective national system to ensure consistency, responsibility and good judgement in such research,” says Edward Hammond of the Sunshine Project, a biosecurity pressure group in Austin, Texas. In a review of IBCs published this month, he found that many would not provide minutes of recent meetings as required by law.
He says the IBC that approved the planned 1918 flu study at the University of Washington considered only one scenario that could result in workers being exposed to airborne virus – the dropping of samples. Its solution: lab workers “will be trained to stop breathing”.

That guarantee is between the government and the people – and does not usually involve private companies. But there are rare exceptions in cases where a company becomes a “state actor”, performing a public function.
