Senate Will Vote Tuesday on Bills to Stop Infanticide and Ban Killing Babies in Late-Term Abortions Two important pro-life bills before the U.S. Senate next Tuesday could save tens of thousands of babies’ lives.



Earlier this week the U.S. Senate held a vote on two critical bills to save babies' lives but failed to pass legislation that would prevent abortions after 20 weeks.

Stop the Pain. Stop Abortions.
Abortion not only kills a life, aborted babies feel pain as they die.
It’s horrendous, but it’s legal.
We’re fighting to ban this abhorrent practice.
A bill has been proposed in Congress to ban abortions after 20 weeks – when science has proven babies can feel pain.
Now is the time to act.
We’re fighting to defend the lives of all unborn babies, and this is a critical step in that fight.
We’re fighting against the abortion industry and defending pro-life laws and speech in court.
Now join us in urging the Senate and House to pass this critical bill to defend the unborn and stop abortions.  Sign our petition:


Our fight for the unborn has reached a critical time and we need your support. Sign our petition today and demand the Senate to pass the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act.


ACTION ALERT:

Senate Will Vote Tuesday on Bills to Stop Infanticide and Ban Killing Babies in Late-Term Abortions

Two important pro-life bills before the U.S. Senate next Tuesday could save tens of thousands of babies’ lives.

The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, Senate Bill 3275, and the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, Senate Bill 311, would increase protections for both born and unborn babies who are targeted for abortions.
Pro-life leaders are urging Americans to contact their U.S. Senators and tell them to vote for both important pieces of pro-life legislation.
The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, sponsored by U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, would prohibit abortions after 20 weeks when strong scientific evidence indicates unborn babies can feel pain.
There are more than 12,000 abortions annually after 20 weeks of pregnancy, according to the Guttmacher Institute, the research arm of the abortion lobby. If passed, the law could save tens of thousands of unborn babies from painful abortion deaths.

Nancy Pelosi and Democrats Push Bill to Overturn Every Pro-Life Law Saving Babies From Abortions



Imagine knocking out more than 500 pro-life laws in a single shot. It sounds too horrible to be true — except that in this House of radicals, nothing is impossible. When Rep. Judy Chu (D-Calif.) dropped her bill, the ridiculously named Women’s Health Protection Act, it was like loading a deadly missile — aimed at all 50 states.

If Chu and her 215 co-cosponsors ever passed H.R. 2975, it would be the single most devasting vote on the unborn yet, It’s so sweeping, Rep. Greg Walden (R-Ore.) warned, that even the original Roe v. Wade ruling was tame by comparison.

President Trump on Wednesday announced in a televised address that the U.S. is suspending all travel from Europe to the U.S. for 30 days beginning Friday at midnight in an effort to slow the spread of coronavirus. 





As of Thursday morning, the novel coronavirus has infected at least 124,518 people across 108 countries, resulting in over 4,607 deaths. In the U.S., at least 44 states plus the District of Columbia have reported confirmed cases of COVID-19, tallying over 1,300 illnesses and at least 36 deaths

Coronavirus in NY: 226cases now in New York state, 62 across NYC



UNCONFIRMED REPORTS THAT NEW YORK CITY MAY BE ON LOCKDOWN DUE TO THE RAPID RATES OF NEW CORNAVIRUS CASES!

THIS MAY HAPPEN IN STAGES!!

The World Health Organization has declared the novel coronavirus outbreak a global "pandemic."

https://www.foxnews.com/health/who-declares-coronavirus-global-pandemic

During a media briefing Wednesday, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the Director-General of the WHO, said there are now more than 118,000 cases of COVID-19 in 114 countries, with 4,291 deaths.


He said in the days and weeks ahead, they expect to see the number of cases and deaths "climb even higher," and expressed concern over the levels of "inaction" in some countries.


CREATION of a "containment zone" of one mile in radius around a "hot spot" of coronavirus in the New York City suburb of New Rochelle.


“It is a dramatic action, but it is the largest cluster of cases in the country,” he (NYS Governor Cuimo) said at a news conference. “The numbers are going up unabated, and we do need a special public health strategy for New Rochelle." New Rochelle is at the center of an outbreak of 108 cases in Westchester County, out of 173 statewide as of Tuesday. New York City has 36 cases, while its population is more than 100 times that of New Rochelle.


As of Tuesday morning(3/10/20), the novel coronavirus has infected at least 113,672 people across 103 countries, resulting in over 4,000 deaths. In the U.S., at least 36 states plus the District of Columbia have reported confirmed cases of COVID-19, tallying almost 650 illnesses and at least 26 deaths.

Here's a look some states impacted by COVID-19.

-Washington: 162 cases
-New York: 142 cases
-California: 133 cases (109 non-repatriated)
-Massachusetts: 41 cases
-New Jersey: 11 cases
-Pennsylvania: 10 cases

-D.C.: 1 case

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that schools, houses of worship, and businesses in an area of New Rochelle, a city just north of New York City, will be closed for two weeks in an effort to stem the spread of the new coronavirus.

One of the largest clusters of COVID-19 cases in the nation is centered in the Westchester County locale. After a lawyer who lives in New Rochelle and works in the borough of Manhattan in New York City tested positive, his family, and a neighbor who drove him to a hospital also tested positive for the illness.

Officials have since located more than 100 cases in the immediate area as of March 10, prompting them to implement what they’re calling a “containment area.”

As of 12 noon (3/10/20)... the number of confirmed cases in New York City is 36. That’s 16 new since yesterday and 11 new even since this morning at 7 a.m. when I last spoke about this,” de Blasio said.

  • Dr. Mitchell Katz, CEO of NYC Health + Hospitals, said local hospitals are bracing for an onslaught of COVID-19 cases.
  • Covid-19 is not a thing in NYC yet. Almost 2,000 New York City residents are in voluntary isolation while 30 people are in mandatory quarantine, he said. COVID-19 has infected more than 173 people across New York state, Gov. Andrew Cuomo told reporters earlier Tuesday. In the next week, this will go up at least 10 times. By Saint Patrick's day NYC won't just be shut down, it will be a mess.

The state will send National Guard troops to help clean surfaces and deliver food in the area, a 1-mile-radius (1.6 km) around a point near a synagogue connected to some existing cases, Cuomo said.

3 private schools in New York, Paramus closing amid COVID-19
Posted: 10:38 PM, Mar 05, 2020 Updated: 10:38 PM, Mar 05, 2020


NEW YORK — Three more private schools around the Tri-state area announced closings Thursday.

The Frish School in Paramus will be closed until Wednesday. According to the school's Facebook, 28 students in the school community were exposed to a Westchester person who was diagnosed as a confirmed case of COVID-19.
The possible exposures also stem from recent hockey games in Riverdale and students who attending a bat mitzvah at the Young Israel of New Rochelle and advised to stay home from school and self-quarantined until Monday, Mar. 9.

Meanwhile, the Collegiate School and the Spence School in New York City are closed Friday. Spence School confirmed it was for a "comprehensive sanitization" of the entire school campus. Collegiate School did not give an official reason.

2 more cases of coronavirus, bringing the number to 13!

The new patients include a woman in her 80s and a man in his 40s


“Neither patient has a connection to travel nor any of the other local individuals diagnosed with (the coronavirus), Both are currently hospitalized and in the intensive care unit. 

City disease detectives are tracing close contacts of both individuals and will ensure they are appropriately isolated and tested immediately.”










The wife, son, daughter and a neighbor of a Westchester County man who tested positive for the novel coronavirus have also contracted the virus, according to New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.


Yeshiva University, where the man’s 20-year-old son attends school, said in a statement that it was informed of the positive COVID-19 test result on Wednesday morning, and as a result, has canceled all classes on Wilf Campus in Washington Heights for the day, including in-person graduate courses and a boys’ high school.

 A second New Yorker has tested positive for #COVID19. He's a man in his 50s from Westchester County who did not travel to any of the "watch list" locations recently. He did, however, travel to Miami.








The first case of coronavirus in New York City was confirmed on Sunday to be a woman in her late 30s who recently traveled to Iran, a state official said.

https://nypost.com/2020/03/01/first-case-of-coronavirus-confirmed-in-manhattan/

Governor Cuomo released a statement on Sunday night announcing the first case in the state. A source told The Post that the woman lives in Manhattan.

The State Department is urging Americans to reconsider travel to Italy amid a coronavirus outbreak that has claimed 21 lives in that country.



The agency updated its travel warning to its second-highest level amid news that nearly 900 people in Italy have been sickened.

"Reconsider travel to Italy due to a recent outbreak of COVID-19," the advisory says. "There is an ongoing outbreak of COVID-19 caused by a novel (new) coronavirus in Italy. Many cases of COVID-19 have been associated with travel to or from mainland China or close contact with a travel-related case, but sustained community spread has been reported in Italy."

         ***Now Called COVID-19 ***


The newly named COVID-19 by the World Health Organizations (WHO) is a type of coronavirus—a family of pathogens that also includes SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) and the common flu. It first broke out in Wuhan in early December 2019.

https://m.theepochtimes.com/funeral-home-workers-across-china-sent-to-coronavirus-epicenter-of-wuhan-to-handle-cadavers-piling-up_3237216.html


COVID-19 - As of 2/25/20, There are more than 80,000 confirmed cases around the world, with approximately 3,000 people killed from the deadly disease.


Coronavirus 'could infect 60% of global population if unchecked'


The coronavirus epidemic could spread to about two-thirds of the world’s population if it cannot be controlled, according to Hong Kong’s leading public health epidemiologist.
His warning came after the head of the World Health Organization (WHO) said recent cases of coronavirus patients who had never visited China could be the “tip of the iceberg”.







Epidemiologists and modellers were trying to figure out what was likely to happen, said Leung. “Is 60-80% of the world’s population going to get infected? Maybe not. Maybe this will come in waves. Maybe the virus is going to attenuate its lethality because it certainly doesn’t help it if it kills everybody in its path, because it will get killed as well,” he said.
Experts also need to know whether the restrictions in the centre of Wuhan and other cities have reduced infections. “Have these massive public health interventions, social distancing, and mobility restrictions worked in China?” he asked. “If so, how can we roll them out, or is it not possible?”












































































There would be difficulties. “Let’s assume that they have worked. But how long can you close schools for? How long can you lock down an entire city for? How long can you keep people away from shopping malls? And if you remove those [restrictions], then is it all going to come right back and rage again? So those are very real questions,” he said.


Hubei province in China reported 81 deaths Saturday, which pushed the death toll for the virus to 811 -- past that of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which broke out on the mainland in 2002 and 2003.


The SARS outbreak killed at least 774, with 8,096 infections globally, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

According to the World Health Organization, 72 countries have implemented travel restrictions. 

12 confirmed cases in US.

China warns the deadly Wuhan coronavirus is 'mutating' and could spread further!!!!!!




The total number of cases in the U.S. was 12 as of Thursday morning, in six different states, but the outbreak is still focused largely in central China. 

NOTE/Post of an epidemiologist, who is deeply worried about this new coronavirus outbreak.
1) the virus has an upward infection trajectory curve much steeper than SARS.
2) it can be transmitted person to person before symptoms appear
— I.e. it is silently contagious

Small note: While there were reports of SARS having 0.49 after containment started, a WHO cited experts who said SARS had initial R0 of 2.9 then 2.0-3.5, which which fell to 0.4 after quarantine. But SARS is more symptomatic than this Wuhan virus.

😮😳 - THE NEW CORONAVIRUS IS A 3.8!!!

The expert says 'How bad is that reproductive R0 value? 

It is thermonuclear pandemic level bad - never seen an actual virality coefficient outside of Twitter in my entire career. 

I’m not exaggerating...' #WuhanCoronovirus #CoronavirusOutbreak 

https://t.co/6mmxIHL9Ue

 12/ What is the typical R0 attack rate for the seasonal flu in most years? 

It’s around an R0=1.28. 
The 2009 flu pandemic? R0=1.48. 

The 1918 Spanish Flu? 1.80. 

This new #WuhanCoronavirus reproductive value again? R0=3.8.

President Trump has signed a presidential proclamation, using his authority pursuant to Section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, temporarily suspending the entry into the United States of foreign nationals who pose a risk of transmitting the 2019 novel coronavirus.

As a result, foreign nationals, other than immediate family of U.S. citizens and permanent residents, who have traveled in China within the last 14 days will be denied entry into the United States for this time.
