Op-Ed: RSV is packing hospitals with sick kids, but it can be contained on a hospital’s doorstep

(NaturalNews) The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic began in Wuhan, China, where a team of researchers and scientists were working on a virus that would eventually become one of the most deadly viruses ever to be unleashed on the planet.
By mid-January 2019, that team had isolated the virus from a civet cat. What was it and how did it spread, no one really knew for sure. But, within weeks, all of China had their first confirmed cases of the virus. And, like a lightning bolt of lightning, the virus spread across the globe, first infecting more than 1,000 people in Southern China, and then moving rapidly to Japan, Thailand and the entire European Union.
“We have no idea why the virus is spreading like this, and when it will stop,” said Dr. William Gerberding, Executive Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
To his credit, Gerberding has asked that question himself. But, in light of the fact that his agency has done more than its fair share of lying, we have decided to take a deeper look into the coronavirus story and find out more about what’s going on. And, what we’ve discovered is that it does go beyond China, and it is taking hold in places all across the planet.
The Coronavirus is now moving its way across Western Europe, with Italy and Spain now reporting more than 5,000 new cases each week. And, as China falls deeper into chaos, it may soon join the list.
To date, more than 2,300 people have died across the globe from the virus. If the pandemic continues much longer, Gerberding fears the number of global deaths will grow far higher.
The virus is spreading like a wildfire and it is rapidly moving into new areas, like the USA which is now seeing more cases than all but two of its neighbors combined. The virus has now moved to every state of the Union, and has claimed the lives of more than 2,000 Americans: a staggering 2,098 people, or more than 16
