According to the Chinese Embassy in Kazajstan, they have reported and warned their citizens about a new Pneumonia Virus deadlier than Coronavirus, spreading from Kazajstan.
In a message comming from the Chinese Embassy in Kazajstan capital, Nur-Sultan, they're warning their citizens to avoid traveling to said country because they've got reports of said virus, with a far more deadlier than COVID-19, that so far has provoked 1172 dead victims of said virus in just six months, and that there is a large number of nearly 700 victims on this past month of June.

At first, the Embassy communicate named these new death cases being provoked by "the" "Kazaja Pneumonia", but later changed the term to "Non-COVID Pneumonia".
But a health organization in Kazajstan reported that these affirmations from "Chinese media" doesn't correspond to reality, though, they've never alluded directly the Chinesse Embassy message.

Either way, Kazajstan Ministers have indeed accepted to have cases of patients registered for a strange Pneumonia that's not been caused by COVID-19, as tests for said virus were negative among patients with Pneumonia symptoms.
Kazajstan has given information regarding these statements and they've clarified to be fake news, but they've said to have a peak of Pneumonia cases in two cities called Atyrau and Aktobe.

Let's all remember what Chinese has brought us this year:
  • January - Coronavirus
  • June - New Swine Virus
  • July - New Bubonic Virus
Update? Source: Unknown / Twitter
"It's caused by a careless translation of Kaz health official's updates on regular pneumonia, to which the embassy added the word "unknown" -- and became a misleading news story."

I too have my doubts... what if it's true and gets underestimated, just like Chinese government hid Coronavirus info since last November?
What if it's all a lie? Well... in this case I'd be more reliefed.
I'm not exactly sure how fast a Virus can mutate, but this seems very ... likely? Again, this is still a rumor.

This may offend some people "Mods I'm Sorry" But China have some very questionable eating habits and this is kinda why we have these type of diseases. Also when a disease happens in China they try to downplay or "silence" the whistle blowers. It is strange lately viruses been coming from china lately.

It's bad enough we have to wear a mask almost everywhere we go.

Alright, that's enough. Your message and your avatar are starting to scare the shit outta me.
Before a weekend.
I'm outta here.
Am I really that creepy?
I guess I understand why Alan got scared when he noticed me too.

Funny thing is that I'm being serious and not genuinely creepy. That's something reserved for some members.

Do you wanna feel really scared (possibly)? Check my predictions for this month: https://gbatemp.net/threads/julys-deadpools-start-your-bets.568842/

You guys are all the worst - collectively.

Racist bunch the whole of you.

Bareley any grasp on reality.

But racist - so theres a bond.

WIll not contribute to this thread.

gbatemp, where bigots are born obsessing over death, and how to attribute the cause to a freaking nationality.

gbatemp, where no one cares to say anything about this anymore - because no one cares about you guys.


'Is chinas health system worse?'


No the truth is the US health system is the worst equipped for any pandemic outbreak. The US culture is the worst equipped for any pandemic outbreak, and the US social system is the worst equipped for any pandemic outbreak. Amongst all major nations.

Now search for a scapegoat on that.

(China can quarantine and control outbreaks in ways no western country can, bummer. Not pleasant for the people that are controlled, but effective.)

No, the truth is, that china did more for the global prevention of Covid deaths, in direct help, equipment, science and shared knowledge, than the US ever could have managed - in a hundred years.

While you guys are philosophizing over a chinese bat, a chinese pig, and a kazajstanian goat, that for some reason - also sounds chinese to you.

Er.....you are replying to the wrong thread, maybe?
OP just said there;s a new virus, some people are nervous, some believe it is covid. Yeah, so, what are you talking about?
Not every discussion involves race.
The China references? People are just fuckin around, relax.

Yeah, somehow this entire thread is about

'Is chinas health system so rubbish'
'Three new viruses in three months, thats the chinese for you'
'Kazachstan - its practically chinese'
and why are we better than the chinese?
-

Here are some more tidbits americans could discuss instead:


Truth is - even currently, in the face of this:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us

qXc1UMb.png

and this:
euH4frD.png


all the US leadership still has managed, is to lie citizens in their face, that 'death numbers are the lowest they've ever been'

Truth is, that the US spends 2% of GDP on education, meaning - just in going with public sentiment, US citizens will never find out anything.


This also might be a reason, why a FREAKING new VIRUS, is FEARMONGERED in this community whenerver some FREAKING sensationalistic news item reaches someones newsfeed.

And you dont care the freaking least, to post anything other than deathrate.

So hows propagation rate, is it transmitted from human to human, ... Have you literally ANY information about it, other than that one dude said something klilled 700 people in Kasachstan.

On a normal newsday you wouldnt have touched that newsitem with gloves on, but since you now have to construct your 'how rubbish are the chinese really' narrative, suddenly you are caring about worldnews.

But only the ones that put the fear of god into peoples hearts, so they finally can start and hate the chinese, for no actual reason given. Just platitudes, just a list of 'a new pandemic virus every week' you constructed with no idea on the actual threat model of any of those three viruses.

You dont even know what Covid-19 currently does in the US, nor do you care - but to effing denegrate chinese people, you are now reading the Kazachstan Daily.

Because some right wing outlet made sure it comes up in your facebook feed.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

sure they did :O


I believe the US did the same with russia or no ventilators.

Help never is given out naively, but always with at least some political motive, if it is 'state financed' ask africa in relation to european aid.

If the US had actually stood their man, and helped anyone in this crisis, to any significant extent (which they dindt (also, because the werent equipped to)), you could be sure, that their political enemies were the last people that would have received help from them.


gbatemp, where five dogwhistles in a row, to hate the chinese, arent even 'about race'. (Actually, partly true, because most of the statements made in here are about nationalism, to the point - where people complain, if the chinese cant look after their animals better, so they dont get sick...).


China - actually acted on the presumed cause of the Covid-19 pandemic and outlawed living exotic stock in many wet markets, and they are enforcing that stuff. Oh - that didn't come up in your fear centric (fear centric, because fear is one of the prime emotions, that makes news go viral far more likely than other emotions - we've mapped that stuff out to a T) facebook newsfeed? Bummer.

(And your contribution is, that you want tell everyone, that you'd have been the first that discovered the next Corona scare on facebook? I dont quite understand. Oh all the glory, that will bring you - when you finally know anything about the virus (propagation rate, infection path, ..) at all.

We had exactly the same with the 'swineflu' strand not more than a week ago. People just wanting to play disaster tourists, to tell their neighbors, that they've been the first that talked about it.

While on Covid-19 an actual pandemic, with the case rate rising exponentially in the US, you just don't care... But whats the next? Whats the next?)

What are your eating habits? Are they questionable?

We don't actually know how we got covid-19, we probably will never know. It's unlikely that it jumped at the wet market in wuhan though.

Sure. ;) But every week?

Last Pandemic was 100 years ago, now we have one every week, because your facebook feeds says so? Quick, share it with everyone!

But only share death numbers, so people really freak. And dont fail to attribute it to the nation, we dont like.

people are just too dumb to realize that themselves are dumb: take an example how stubborn americans refused to wear masks cauz it's their freedom to choice about their body? they are maybe a cure for pandemic in the future but there's NO cure for people's stupidity.

And do you know that the numbers of people who died to Spanish Flu and Africa's HIV each year are far higher than COVID? right?
