As  posted to the Peak Prosperity YouTube Channel on January 30, 2020 (Run time 15 min 23 sec) In Update #7, on the Wuhan New Coronavirus (officially "2019-ncov"), Chris Martenson reports that on 1/30/2020 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared that the Wuhan Coronavirus is indeed now a pandemic. If that's not scary enough, the WHO then proceeded to downplay the risk to public health and went to great lengths to make it clear it doesn't recommend placing restrictions on global trade & travel at this time . . . when we may be in dealing with a viral outbreak as (or more) virulent than the Spanish Flu (aka The Great Influenza).

In this update, Chris walks us through the math here, showing how if the Coronavirus follows its current geometric growth, over 100 million people could be infected by the end of February. Don't take today's lack of 'news' as meaning the threat from this virus is dying down. This is very likely just the calm before the storm.

As  posted to the Peak Prosperity YouTube Channel on January 28, 2020 (Run time 8 min 30 sec) In Update #5, with regards to the Wuhan New Coronavirus (offially "2019-ncov"), Chris Martenson suggests that the Coronavirus has all the hallmarks of a true Black Swan event. In addition to presenting a major public health risk, the Coronavirus is already doing serious economic damage. China, the world's second-largest economy, is essentially "closed for business" right now. The disruption to global trade the Coronavirus is likely to cause is going to be material, perhaps severe. And that will have serious negative consequences for the financial markets, which have been (and is still!) trading at the highest valuations in history.

As  posted to the Peak Prosperity YouTube Channel on January 27, 2020 (Run time 11 min 58 sec) In Update #4, with regards to the Wuhan New Coronavirus (officially "2019-ncov"), Chris Martenson reports that pretty much the entire country of China is in lockdown at this moment which is unbelievable. In addition to the restriction of travel within and across its borders, the Chinese government has begun heavily censoring the data its sharing with the world. Chris calls into question the few statistics they're currently reporting, suspecting the situation is devolving into something much worse than admitted to.
