China Corona Virus Outbreak

[shadow]

So it was from imported frozen food. This will have implications on policy re:food security. Developed countries will have to go local a lot more. In countries like ours it's probably gonna be business as usual.

Papatayin na talaga tayong lahat ng China.

baka ma offend si Pduts, ano kaya masasabi ni rokwe dito

[uls]

wala eh

interconnected ang mundo

wala yata bansa na hindi nag iimport at hindi tumatanggap ng tao galing sa labas

New Zealand got their community transmission under control but they're dependent on tourism so sooner or later they gotta let people in

and of course they cannot produce everything so they have to import stuff

[uls]

alas!
that is what the man on the street does not comprehend.

these rapid tests are also known as screening tests. their main advantage is that they are cheap and rapid.
but their results have a limitation that has to be addressed via more exacting test aka confirmatory test, i.e., the expensive PCR.

would you guys prefer the more painful and more expensive PCR, instead?

i have rapid test every 2 weeks

pag non-reactive result di ako nagcecelebrate

for me it means 2 things:

di pa ako nahawa o nahawa na ako pero wala pa ako antibodies

yan ang mindset ko

nasa gitna tayo ng pandemic... lalo nasa QC ako pinakamadami may virus sa buong Pilipinas

ang QC ngayon equivalent ng Wuhan in Jan/Feb

part na ng new normal itong regular testing

kung meron mas accurate na test na mabilis (in minutes) i'll ditch rapid test and go for the new test

PCR takes too long and it's too expensive

[uls]

meron pala pinakita sakin rapid antigen test

StandardQ brand

meron na ito sa Pinas

swab ito pero no need for lab or PCR machine




i think this will become popular

COVID FREE BEIJING ��
Btw it’s been 183 days since an infection was reported in Shunyi;
54 days since one was found in Dongcheng;
49 days for Chaoyang
45 days for Haidian.
0 new cases
6 left in the hospital(from second wave)
ctto Mike, Beijinger publication..
Beijing is 6 times the size of whole cebu island.
with camera everywhere, phones being monitored , which police every 10meters, no rally, where government reside President Xi. I always admire the government strict rules here. People abide, Cant complain (you need to follow rules of CCP or else��) All together fight virus.

By the way posted by a filipina in china.

The philippine media is really anti-china. Hindi binabalita yung maganda. Puro kumakain ng paniki.

Eh sa cavite at laguna madami kumakain ng daga at ahas doon.

hey!
a non-PCR-based antigen test!
sounds good on paper...
N.B. i googled, and the article i read wasn't quite clear what the test was detecting... antigen or antibody...

but my issue with self-inflicted tests,
are the correctness of the procedure,
and the potential problem of not understanding the interpretation of the result.

Kags just believes what he wants to believe.

Yan sinasabi ko uls. If they will ban rapid test, mas lalong walang magpaptest.

Ang mahal ng PCR and you can't do it regularly then istorbo pa dahil sasadyain mo pa.

kayo naman balik trabaho na nga china. Kung may problema jan eh hindi pwede masecret yan sa panahon ng smartphone.

ang angas nga nagrerequire mga papasok ng nega covid test.

Ito problema sa antibody vs viral load testing eh mas ok kung ihouse nyo mga empleyado wag palalabasin.

Look kung ano ginagawa ng NBA sa orlando. Tuloy basketball mukhang wala naman hawaan.

Ano ba maaachieve ng testing testing kung lagi naman lumalabas.

it won't be as accurate as PCR

and somebody has to do the swab properly

yeah PCR is too expensive and the result takes too long

diba mid-May nag MECQ (from ECQ)

doon nag umpisa mag rapid test ang mga companies

dahil sa rapid test madami naging candidate for swab test

at doon lumabas madami pala asymptomatic

if it weren't for rapid test di madedetect mga yan

for me ok ang contribution ng rapid test

nadiscover ang mga asymptomatic

ito ung sinasabi ko big name companies won't necessarily manufacture all the vaccines in-house

they will outsource production

and of course those outsourcing countries will have access to the vaccine

Ang Pinas hintay lang pag may sobra

Sorry ang Pinas wala tayo vaccine manufacturing capability

Outsource specialty natin back office work

[uls]

sigurado yan pag may vaccine na hindi pantay pantay ang distribution globally

rich countries specially the US will get it first

thing is madami anti-vaxxer sa kanila so many Americans will refuse the vaccine

[Sweetlucious]

Countries who got first dibs on vaccine, will they allow medical tourism kaya?

they want their lives to go back to normal.
if tourism is a big part of their normal lives...

i suppose,
that will depend on the stipulations of the contract.
