Event Update For 2020-02-05
http://jumpingjackflashhypothesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/jumping-jack-flash-hypothesis-its-gas.html
The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2020-02-05 - Tencent may have accidentally leaked real data on coronavirus deaths:
http://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3871594
http://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10904402/coronavirus-chinese-media-giant-lists-deaths-as-24589/
http://www.thebigwobble.org/2020/02/coronavirus-day-38-feb-6th-accidentally.html
Quote: "On late Saturday evening (Feb. 1), the Tencent webpage showed confirmed cases of the Wuhan virus in China as standing at 154,023, 10 times the official figure at the time. It listed the number of suspected cases as 79,808, four times the official figure. The number of cured cases was only 269, well below the official number that day of 300. Most ominously, the death toll listed was 24,589, vastly higher than the 300 officially listed that day."
Quote: "There have also been reports from crematorium workers in Wuhan - the epicentre of the virus - that they are being sent corpses not added to the official tally. Meanwhile hospital staff have leaked videos purporting to show dead bodies across ward corridors in Wuhan."
Quote: "According to Mr. Yun, his facility needs 'at least 100 body bags' every single day. If every other cremation center in the city is handling a similar workload, that would strongly indicate that the true death toll is far, far larger than the official numbers we are being given."
Note: 24,589 deaths out of 154,023 confirmed cases is a 15.96% death rate, far higher than the highest estimate (10%) for the deadly 1918 Spanish flu. Even if you count the suspected cases, the death rate is still 10.5%. And if that ONE crematorium in that ONE city is burning 100 corpses per day then the 'official figures' can't possibly be correct. If those higher numbers are the real stats then it is no wonder that they're hiding reality with a second sanitized less panic-evoking set of stats. If those higher numbers are correct then what they're hiding is the fact that this is a veritable doomsday virus. That would spook the herd. Better a dead herd than a spooked herd!

What happens when China's supply chains break
When China's Supply Chains Break, so Will the Delusion the U.S. Economy Is Invulnerable
http://robinwestenra.blogspot.com/2020/02/what-happems-when-chinas-supply-chains.html
The reality is that much of the supply chain is at risk of financial collapse. Many if not most of the thousands of spontaneous protests in recent years in China are not political; they're workers demanding back pay or promised bonuses from shuttered supply-chain companies.
Here's how bankrupt supply-chain factory owners deal with bankruptcy: they leave in the middle of the night and vanish. The workers get stiffed and there's no recourse, no court hearing, no nothing.
U.S. corporations that assume their supply chains will return to normal in a week or two are in for a big surprise: consequential chunks of their supply chains, likely chunks they never paid much attention to, will dry up and blow away. The factories will not re-open, and the workers won't return.
Any way they cut it, costs will rise whether Corporate America seeks suppliers outside China or alternative suppliers in China. With global wages stagnant for the past decade or two, raising prices is a non-starter. Net-net, corporate profits will fall even if sales remain robust, which is unlikely given the world's largest economy and manufacturing center is grinding to a halt.
Once the supply chain breakdown comes home to roost in Corporate America, the mass delusion that the U.S. economy is invulnerable will collapse in a heap. [more]
