Spying For COVID

China lied, the world died. China is asshoe.

Spy Data Study: Kung Flu In Wuhan In AUGUST???

Satellite images of hospital parking lots in Wuhan suggest the coronavirus – which stemmed from the Chinese city – may have been spreading in China as early as last August.

A new study from Harvard Medical School, which is yet to be peer-reviewed, found a “dramatic increase in hospital traffic outside five major Wuhan hospitals beginning late summer and early fall 2019”, Harvard Medical professor and lead author of the research, Dr John Brownstein, said.

Dr Brownstein said the traffic increase also “coincided with” an uptick in searches on Chinese search engine Baidu for “certain symptoms that would later be determined as closely associated with the novel coronavirus”.

While the team have acknowledged the evidence is circumstantial, Dr Brownstein said the study makes for an important new data point in the mystery of COVID-19’s origins, with the disease only thought to have originated in November.

While individual hospitals had days of “high relative volume in both fall and winter 2019”, five of the six hospitals showed their “highest relative daily volume of the analysed series, coinciding with elevated levels of Baidu search queries for the terms ‘diarrhoea’ and ‘cough’,” the team, which included researchers from Boston University and Boston Children’s Hospital, wrote.

Dr Brownstein told CNN the study was all about “trying to piece together a complicated puzzle of what was taking place at the time”.

“The data is especially compelling because we saw increases in people searching for gastrointestinal disease – diarrhoea – which were increasing at a level that we hadn’t seen at all, historically, and we now know that gastrointestinal symptoms are a really important marker for COVID,” he said.

“A huge percentage of people that actually end up testing positive in Wuhan actually had presented symptoms of diarrhoea.”

Yu can run, but Yu can’t hide.

So, we have eyes in the sky that can count and analyze the heat signatures of the number of vehicles in a parking lot. And we have deep enough access to the Chinese internet to be able to analyze the terms used in their search engines.

Abstract
The global COVID-19 pandemic was originally linked to a zoonotic spillover event in Wuhan’s Huanan Seafood Market in November or December of 2019. However, recent evidence suggests that the virus may have already been circulating at the time of the outbreak. Here we use previously validated data streams - satellite imagery of hospital parking lots and Baidu search queries of disease related terms - to investigate this possibility. We observe an upward trend in hospital traffic and search volume beginning in late Summer and early Fall 2019. While queries of the respiratory symptom “cough” show seasonal fluctuations coinciding with yearly influenza seasons, “diarrhea” is a more COVID-19 specific symptom and only shows an association with the current epidemic. The increase of both signals precede the documented start of the COVID-19 pandemic in December, highlighting the value of novel digital sources for surveillance of emerging pathogens

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
