CORRECTIONS:
1) Dr. Li Wenlian didn't put his first post on Weibo, as I reported, but on a private forum. It was therefore only circulated among health professionals. To call him a "whistleblower" may therefore be a misnoma.
2) The Wuhan market was closed for renovation AND sanitation. I missed the latter.
3) 3:08 -- One of the reasons SARS-Cov-2 was far more deadly is that, unlike the flu, there would be no natural immunity. Just to be clear, that refers to populations. There are always a few individuals who are immune to any new pathogen.
SOURCES:
I usually give my sources in chronological order and time-stamp each, so it can be easily referenced from the videos. However, this normally takes a couple of days, and the situation with the coronavirus is changing so rapidly that I would have to re-make the video after even that short period of time. Already I have had to change a segment about re-opening for business after POTUS first said he want to re-open the country for business by Easter, then within days shifted that to the end of April.
So I will just have to copy and paste all my sources, as is. And since I have no time to write out publications, dates, authors and titles of scientific papers, you will have to get these directly off the screen. If details are not visible, just put the title of the paper into Google Scholar. Thanks for your understanding
