Satellite images and online searches indicate China had coronavirus in the fall, Harvard study finds

Travellers line up with their belongings outside Hankou Railway Station after travel restrictions to leave Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province and China's epicentre of the novel coronavirus disease outbreak, were lifted, April 8, 2020.Covid-19 may have been circulating in China as early as August 2019, a new study from Harvard Medical School claims.

However, an analysis of hospital traffic and search engine data in Wuhan indicates that there was early disease activity in the fall of 2019, according to HMS researchers.published on Monday on Harvard University's DASH server, analysts used satellite images of parking lots at six hospitals in Wuhan to calculate vehicle counts and estimate hospital occupancy trends. The vehicle numbers were compared to trends seen during other flu-like illness outbreaks.

It found that between 2018 and 2020 there was a general upward trend in hospital occupancy — but there was a steep increase in occupancies from August 2019, which culminated with a peak in December 2019.

When I see anything that says “study by Harvard,” I think “so.” I don’t trust any study, student, professor from this liberal haven. Not the best and the brightest. Biased and contrived.

The financial crisis preceding the pandemic began in Lebanon.

By their lack of transparency now the entire world is n edge. Economically/ Socially, Among other things.

Imagine!

Duh!

Just a joke.

And earliest US cases were Sep 2019

Virologists from British/Norway making a Vaccine for COVID19 found that the current procedures may not work as SARS-Cov 2 contains RNA sequence elements that appear 'man-made' or 'inserted artificially'.(June 2,2020 Quratrl. Rev. Biophys).Heated discussion on... TV18News

This make sense. This virus took several month to become rampant in the west so as to China in the early stage. Chinese government was definitely concealing about the viral that time.

GOP Governors are still opt-in for the Business as Usual in the middle of a Pandemiun but they careless about you or me since they are not in our shoes at the end of the day. Let face it; it were never a full lockdown never no where. That what it were the correct move to do 1st.

It has been in the US since July. COVID19 TrumpVirus coronavirus. From July, 2019:

Harvard is ruining its credibility going on with this.

USTreasury Another round of relief checks are coming Yes, it's that bad

Since 1917

Surprise surprise :)

That seems suspect

China needs to be held accountable. Trump needs to be held accountable. The CDC needs to be held accountable. WHO needs to be held accountable. Did I leave anybody out? This would never got to this point if people would have acted fast.

希望美国疫情能快点结束，不再有更多的人死亡

very stupid nonsense disinfo circulating days ago, what a no brainer editor of CNBC post this again now?

Parking vehicles? I’m gonna laugh my ass off. Has any of the Harvard genius who wrote this study been to a popular city hospital Good luck to find a parking any day of the year.

So it's all a scam China

In a lab or what

CNBC is still circulating a debunked lame study without peer-review...

So the Chinese communist students in US universities going back & forth to China were spreading the virus for over a year ago. I don’t even want to think about all the chinese anchor baby moms coming here to give birth.

It doesn't make any sense.

May have been !?!?

A study will soon find out that Covid-19 existed as early as when Chinese started eating Pangolins! Stay tuned!

How many College Students come to America from China every year? They could of all been carriers not showing Symptoms.

Yes it's waiting President Trump Orders, when to attacks

Lookner

This study doesn’t make any sense

When Medical School start analyzing satellite images instead of medical experiment data, you know how far reaching that 'study' is.

utepper this is what we were saying. No way this all started in DEC/JAN

A shame that Harvard has traded in its academic rigor with China-bashing political point scoring. There are so many glaring problems with this study: 1) author using unreliableBaidu data 2) highly inaccurate translations of Baidu search words 3) blatant manipulation of said data

I feel so sorry to find Harvard descends to be a third rate intelligence agency that dedicates to politics

Genius! Satellite images of harvardmed parking lot and online searches indicate which employees are cheating on their partners, according to a follow up study from the same group with the same methodology.

Research car outside of hospital = coronavirus. No wonder whole world is laughing at us. Europe found few cases in Sep & Oct. Now western media need to change the narrative of the news to scapegoat & blame China again. Left right and center by hook or crook blame China.

This is interesting info and merits further study. I'm not ready to blame China. Cld be it took a while until they realized COVID is 'novel.' Some anecdotal evidence has worth and can lead to further clues along the way.

Poor data was used, likely this will be retracted in time... also you’ve never been to a Chinese hospital... they are beyond busy and near capacity even on the slowest day.

With China’s travel to the US, if it’s in China in august then it’s in the US in September.

Now medical school can analyse virus from satellite photos? Amazing magic!

It’s was in DMV June/July 2019 in nursing homes I believe m. I thought flu or pneumonia vaccine 💉complications because they had an enhance vaccine for Elders to boost immune system causing cytokine storms instead. cell-based vaccines

Anyone surprised? CCP lover their people very much, they cover it up for months to protect people in China. We are out here just a collateral damage. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯

I believe it.

This study has no scientific basis

Go on fooling yourself, the more stupid normal people are, the more quickly US declines.

China lied people died

covid-19 pandemic How can you assure that's caused by coronavirus ? Such study is unscientific and irresponsible. It's full of witch hunt.

WideAwake0804 I believe that ...

Since few cases were found in Europe during September & October. Now western media need to change the narrative to scapegoat & blame China.American research Cars outside of hospital = coronavirus patients. No media talk about cases in US.Blame China by hook or crook western media

George Floyd was a hard core drug abuser (fentanyl) he also used counterfeit money and had a long criminal history. In the coming weeks we need to explore his history so as to understand who he actually was.

Maybe not doing this would have helped us see it earlier:

ChinaLiedPeopleDied

First February, then January, now August. Thing probably been around since the 60's. What are we doing....

FUCK WHO

lauferlaw But Trump said “snuck up on us”!😂

This blame Trump crowd will not like this new science data. But the fact is that the West was seeded by Covid before anyone knew it was here.

Fuck China

China is a lying regime

No

We cant trust anything they say. They wanted to make a bio weapon and hide it from America

China, scientists dismiss Harvard study suggesting COVID-19 was spreading in Wuhan in AugustBeijing dismissed as 'ridiculous' a Harvard Medical School study of hospital traffic and search engine data that suggested the new coronavirus may already have been spreading in China last August, and scientists said it offered no convincing evidence of when the outbreak began. Try fall 2018 So, exactly what the lockdown skeptics have been saying for months now? Thanks. Typical blame-shifting. Why don’t they investigate the US?!

In Race for Covid-19 Vaccine, China Tries for a CoupChina is giving the U.S., home to the world’s biggest pharmaceutical companies, a run for its money in the race to develop a vaccine for Covid-19—a feat that would instantly change the dynamics of the fight against the deadly virus, and the geopolitical competition between the U.S. and China. DON'T expect me to cheer on CHINA. Did they release Covid-19 with intention of supplying the 'cure/vaccine'? By the CCP regime trying to patent Remdesivir 5 days after WHO announced the new pandemic seems awfully 'fishy' to me! I choose not to inject my body with a vaccine developed anywhere but a Country that is democratic. China already spread covid 20 of hate to divided and divert attention to blackmail and compramise on several issues for American govt.

Wearing a mask without covering her nose might be part of the problem. China has been transparent & honest in every aspect. Western nations are liars & racists! China will eventually be the dominant global power. Take the little bit of Truth and run with it. China with its Draconian rules is seeing a resurgence, American should start getting concern with its 'Liberate the State' or 'Open the State' attitude.
