A virus that sparked pandemic fears in China has risen in the US this month, official data shows - and parts of the Midwest have become hotspots.
The CDC reports that 2.2 percent of tests conducted across America in the week ending January 4 were positive for the human metapneumovirus (hMPV).
That represented an increase of 25 percent compared to the previous week (1.77 percent) and means around one in 50 Americans with a cough likely had the virus.
HMPV, which some doctors describe as 'the most important virus you've never heard of', gained worldwide attention after being linked to a viral outbreak in China this month.
Footage of overcrowded waiting rooms and wards posted on Chinese social media were similar to the scenes coming out of China at the start of the Covid pandemic.
But the US numbers are not unusual for this time of year and doctors have reassured the public that hMPV is mild for most.
Didnt they say not to worry about COVID too in the beginning? Isnt hMPV spreading in India as well?
China Sees Massive Drop In HMPV Cases, While India Still On High Alert: Could This Deadly Virus Soon Strike Adults?
to the physicians, HMPV instances are growing in China mostly affecting children under 14, which raises questions over a possible new epidemic similar to COVID-19. Health authorities underline, however, that, unlike the new coronavirus, HMPV is a well-known respiratory virus with recognized characteristics.
Recent data showing an increase in HMPV cases in China, mostly affecting children under 14, raise questions over a possible new epidemic comparable to COVID-19. However, this is not the case as specialists advise that, unlike the new coronavirus, HMPV is a well-known respiratory virus with recognized patterns. Health professionals and the Chinese government claim that the epidemic is normal for winters and does not represent the same degree of hazard as COVID-19.
A little confusing based on the heading. Is the virus increasing or decreasing in China. However as the first article shows its spreading in the US like COVID did in early 2020. As we move close to solar cycle 26, currently in cycle 25, i believe one, possibly more, viruses will cause pandemic like problems for the world. Whether its Disease X in Congo, hMPV, Bird Flu, or some other respiratory bug. Regardless Sintx needs to get moving with its partners to release PPE before next major respiratory wave.

The current cycle is short and is already showing signs of the next cycles magnetics which could mean the next cycle will be extremely long. Solar cycles last from 8-14 years but generally last 11 years.
What was particularly interesting about COVID & Solar Cycle 25 was when the termination event occurred, Covid's potency died down. Termination event marks the magnetic end of the previous solar cycle. During COVID, magnetics connected to both cycles were occurring. Once solar cycle 24 ended, covid significantly weakened. My wife has told me covid and other respiratory infections are increasing in hospitals and im noticing more people coughing so it makes me curious if this is connected to the fact that solar cycle 26 has already began to appear. If Cycle 25 is short 8 years then that means cycle 26 will begin around 2027. However cycle 25 may not experience its official termination until 2030s. Meaning we could experience a pandemic that lasts 2-5+ years if it begins during this period.
Ive been warning about similar outbreak to covid since back in August after i read that solar cycle 26 has already been showing signs on the sun creating a magnetic overlap which may play into these pandemics. Now there are mask mandates in China & India due to a viral outbreak and now we are seeing a return of mandates in the US over increase in respiratory infections including bird flu. There have been two severe infections in North America pertaining to bird flu in Canada and Louisiana both showing similar type of progress infecting cells. The patient in Louisiana died. Unlike the patient in Louisiana which was over 65 with other medical issues, the one in Canada is a teenager.

For continued coverage of significant Airplane malfunctions and why Sintx Si3N4 aerospace products are needed goto my research board. 24 plane malfunctions since December 22nd.

Here is a collection of my research going over multiple subjects including Sintx connections with Zimmer Biomet, Solventum, Morgan Ceramics, & NP Aerospace. Includes other research topics as well.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=175357996
========================================
We already know Sintx and Morgan were working together. If there is going to be some sort of NP/Sintx merger, that just solidifies it. We also know Zimmer Biomet and Sintx have had a long standing relationship (going on 20 years) so as long as Sintx components for Arthroplasty are any good, Zimmer Biomet will come out from behind the curtain. With ZB comes ZimVie and I believe Solventum because of Bryan Hanson. Leaving only Cardinal Health which is suggested by Sintx hiring of Joseph Palomo who joined Sintx from Cardinal Health R&D division.
Morgan Ceramics = Aerospace products
Zimmer Biomet = Arthroplasty oriented products
ZimVie = Dental?
Solventum = Wound Care, Catheters, & possibly Cancer treatment products.
Ned Medical = Microspheres for cancer treatment
Cardinal Health = PPE & Medical protection apparel.
NP Aerospace = Armor plates & other possible products connected to TA&T.
========================================
Markets Si3n4/Sintx Ceramics can be used in (not comprehensive)
Otho Market = $64 billion
Personal Protective Equipment market = $79.53 billion
Global Catheter market = $55bn
Antibacterial market = $44.5bn
Wound Care market = $22.25bn
Biosensors Market = $28.9bn
Condom Market = $11.6bn
Dental Implant market = $4.99bn
Armor Materials Market = $13.59bn
Cancer Treatment (microspheres) = $5-$15bn
Total = $330bn-340bn

Could it be that there is a strategy to distract people away from looking at basic data?
Is it an exercise to create forum verbiage to drown out any serious discussion of evidence?
