HMPV Outbreak In China

HMPV Outbreak In China

Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is surging in China, but health “experts” say that the risk of a COVID-19-like pandemic because of this outbreak is still very low. In spite of some alarm being raised, the hMPV outbreak doesn’t appear to be too severe.

HMPV is a respiratory disease that causes flu or cold-like symptoms. Those complications can become more severe or lead to more serious complications like bronchitis or pneumonia, particularly among the elderly, young children, and immunocompromised people. The disease is in the same family as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and has been around since at least 2001 when it was first identified in the Netherlands. Its outbreaks are concentrated during colder seasons, according to a report by The Guardian. 

The number of cases have been rising in northern China, particularly among children, according to local authorities. The country’s Centre for Disease Control (CDC) has warned people to take precautions with health and hygiene but has also pushed back against online claims of overwhelmed hospitals and fears of another Covid-like pandemic.

“Respiratory infections tend to peak during the winter season,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Friday. “The diseases appear to be less severe and spread with a smaller scale compared to the previous year.”

This illness is classified as a “common cold”, unlike COVID-19, although it should go under that classification as well.

There is a reason people are on alert when they hear of a new virus. Most are wondering when the next plandemic will strike making the ruling class and Big Pharma exceedingly wealthy while congealing power into the hands of fewer and fewer at the very top. “I think we’re just more cautious of outbreaks now”, said Dr. Jacqueline Stephens, a senior lecturer in public health at Flinders University in Australia. “Everyone is hypervigilant, and you hear this term human metapneumovirus and it sounds kind of scary.”

“There’s a range of [other viruses] … that are not notifiable because they are very common and lots of people get them. They make us feel terrible for a few days but if we rest and recuperate for a few days then we get better,” said Stephens.

HPMV “certainly can and does cause severe disease, that’s why I think it’s important that people know it’s out there,” said Professor Paul Griffin, the director of infectious diseases at Mater Health Services in Brisbane. “The challenge is at the moment there’s not much we can do except educate people [that] it’s around to reduce transmission. There’s no vaccine or antivirals, although there are some vaccines in development.”

That’s interesting. There always seem to be vaccines in development or being stockpiled for every little thing now, and human beings are sicker than they have ever been.
