The First Jar—Painful Sores Then I heard a loud voice coming from the house of God. The voice said to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven jars of God’s anger onto the earth!”
The first angel poured out his jar of God’s anger onto the earth. Painful sores were given to everyone who had the mark of the
wild animaland who worshiped his god — Revelation 16:1–2 NIV

The 666 Symbol¹
¹ That’s one of the best reasoning I’ve read for the underlying meaning and numerology of 666. Tangentially I cited another possible meaning in my blog Legacy Bitcoin Rises Surreptitiously as the Reserve in a new Two-tier Monetary System; whilst impostor Bitcoin Core Dies:
[2]The likely meaning of “666” is submission to the will (2/3 quorum) of the super-majority in politics, governance, mass mania, etc.. Refer toMatthew 22:21,1 Samuel 8,John 15:19andRevelation 18:4. Whereas,Romans 13:1appears to be an integral part of the 666 system (perhaps a corrupted translation instituted by Constantine?).

Biblical Plagues?
Threat to Agriculture [Due to] Climate Cooling:
When we look at the plague of locust in Africa which is now spreading to China, it brings up visions of the Book of Exodus, which recounts around 1446 BC the Egyptians experienced an exceptional ravenous Plague of Locusts which was the eighth Biblical plague:
“They covered the face of the whole land, so that the land was darkened, and they ate all the plants in the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Not a green thing remained, neither tree nor plant of the field, through all the land of Egypt.”
[…]
Pestilence in the northwestern provinces of China during 311 AD resulted in the death of 98% of the population. They blamed the crisis on locusts.
There was a link also with the rise in the population of rats that spread disease since they devoured the locust carcasses.[And the Black Death originated from Asia]
[…]
From a cyclical perspective, using the data from China, there were 116 major outbreaks over a period of nearly 2000 years. The average plague event seemed to be 17.2 years […] A recent study shows that locust swarms in China align with periods of climate turning colder […]

Clinical Novelty of the New Coronavirus
Widespread asymptomatic and/or mild symptoms , early-in-onset transmission would be a critically pertinent distinction between the original SARS (SARS-CoV) and the new SARS-CoV-2 virus².
Because it wouldprecludethe containment that prevented SARS (and Ebola) from becoming pandemics.
asymptomatic \ ˌā-ˌsim(p)-tə-ˈma-ti-k \ adjective. (of a disease or suspected disease) without symptoms; providing no subjective evidence of existence.
Note COVID-19 is the name of the respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
² Previously known as the 2019 ‘novel coronavirus’ aka ‘2019-nCov’ and hereto referred to as ‘nCov-19’ for brevity:
Why do the virus and the disease have different names?
Viruses, and the diseases they cause, often have different names. For example, HIV is the virus that causes AIDS. People often know the name of a disease, such as measles, but not the name of the virus that causes it (rubeola).
Hmm. Is the WHO expecting there to be an important distinction between the viral infection (analogous to HIV) and the disease (analogous to AIDS)?
Evidence of Asymptomatic and/or Mild Symptoms, Early Transmission
Consensus Document on the Epidemiology of SARS:
There are currently no reports of the transmission of SARS from asymptomatic individuals.
UK businessman asymptomatically infected 11 persons and perhaps many more:
He said he contacted his GP, NHS 111 and Public Health England, on learning he had been exposed to a confirmed case of coronavirus.
He added: “I was advised to attend an isolated room at hospital, despite showing no symptoms
~ ~ ~
A Person Can Carry And Transmit COVID-19 Without Showing Symptoms, Scientists Confirm
The case study is ~~the first~~[another] concrete evidence that a person showing no symptoms can pass the coronavirus to others [with a negative RT-PCR pre-transmission and positive test result post-transmission] — a fact that could make curbing the outbreak even more challenging.
[…]
For now, the woman’s asymptomatic transmission appears to be an anomaly, but health experts have documented other instances in which people tested positive for the virus without showing symptoms.
A report from the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention analysed records of all of China’s reported cases of the virus from December 8 to February 11 and found that
1.2 percent of patients confirmed to be infected showed no symptoms. [←very few asymptomatic patients were tested, so that actual percentage of those infected in the population-at-large is presumably much higher]A far higher portion of asymptomatic cases was found on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, where
322 of 621 people tested positive but showed no symptoms.
The ostensibly disinformation, hullabaloo, “Study claiming new coronavirus can be transmitted by people without symptoms was flawed” seems to misrepresent the totality of the Study documents first case of coronavirus spread by a person showing no symptoms, because it focused only on the extremely mild symptoms of the Index Patient and fails to even mention that Patient 1 apparently asymptomatically transmitted to Patients 3 and 4 during the incubation period. And the transmission to at least Patient 3 was 3–4 days before the onset of symptoms and only 1 day after Patient 1 presumably acquired the infection from the Index Patient!
Transmission of 2019-nCoV Infection from an Asymptomatic Contact in Germany
Even if we presume that somehow the Index Patient transmitted the infection to Patient 3 indirectly (they never met), one of the authors makes a point which may be even more pertinent than purely asymptotic transmission:
The German cluster does reveal another interesting aspect about the new virus, Drosten says. So far most attention has gone to patients who get seriously ill, but all four cases in Germany had a very mild infection. That may be true for many more patients, Drosten says, which may help the virus spread. “There is increasingly the sense that patients may just experience mild cold symptoms, while already shedding the virus,” he says.
“Those [mild symptoms] are not symptoms that lead people to stay at home.”
Additionally no where is it claimed the Index Patient was coughing and sneezing when she attended the business meeting with Patient 1. So WHO misrepresents the risk:
But even if they do, asymptomatic transmission likely plays a minor role in the epidemic overall, WHO says. People who cough or sneeze are more likely to spread the virus
Thirteen additional infections spawned from the aforementioned infected patients with mild symptoms.
The Chinese are staying at home but most Westerners are blissfully going about spreading the virus and not knowing it:

Did CDC Stop Disclosing How Many Americans Are Being Tested For Covid-19?
The Global Times, meanwhile, is now mocking the CDC [and WHO] for refusing to recommend that Americans should wear facemasks.
[…]
the CDC has stopped disclosing the number of Americans tested for coronavirus
[…] “The lack of testing is a scandal…This is the coverup.”

Novel Corona virus SARS-CoV-2 and technological decay:
Inability to produce test kits […] indicates an absolute decline in critical technology in the US
[…]
China used ten year old technology to develop test kits for SARS-CoV-2 in a few days, and now has millions of test kits.
Australia and Singapore have an adequate supply of locally produced test kits, with which they appear to be successfully controlling the spread. Everyone coming in at the airport with a fever gets tested, even if they do not have dry cough or diarrhea, everyone exposed to someone with corona virus gets tested.
In America, almost every case that has been detected among people who have not been overseas has been detected in people who are very seriously ill. Which tells me that there is no testing on contact tracing

The west has lost its nuclear technology. We cannot make Plutonium 238 any more […] Our [newest] fighter planes cannot fly as high, as far, or as fast
In New data from China buttress fears about high coronavirus fatality rate, WHO expert says:
Bruce Aylward, who led an international mission to China to learn about the virus and China’s response, said the specialists did not see evidence that a large number of mild cases of the novel disease called Covid-19 are evading detection […] Aylward pointed to an analysis from Guangdong […] worried people flooded fever clinics to be tested. Of 320,000 tests performed, just ~~under 0.5%~~[exactly 0.47% on pg 9³] were positive for the virus at the peak of transmission there, he said — which suggests that only 1 case out of 200 was being missed.
At that juncture the official count of cumulative, confirmed infection was 0.0084% of Hubei’s population. Citing a statistic from Guangdong is intentionallymisleading because the hospital system was most overwhelmed and thus unable to test everyone in Hubei. On the February 16 date of the WHO report³, Hubei had 44X more cases and has half the population compared to Guangdong. The official disparity continued to rise to 50X as of March 6 increasing from 14X at the juncture of the quoted 0.47% statistic.
From anecdotal reports and common sense, we know that the hospital system in Wuhan was refusing mild cases until at least February 5 when the exhibition center began accepting patients. Presuming all of the mild and a third of the moderate (c.f. pg 12³) were refused testing at the juncture of the quoted statistic then perhaps actual infections were ~1 ÷ 0.3 = 3.33 times officially reported. Thus ~14X × 3.33 = 47X and 47 × 3.33 = 16,327 cases which is roughly aligned with “suspected cases”. As China opened massive new makeshift hospitals for mild cases, official reporting may or may not have improved statistically because the case load may have been increasing much slower in Guangdong due to quarantine of Hubei. And the percentage of very mild cases may be skewed by mild patients being refused testing and/or mild patients not bothering to go to the hospital given the presumed high incidence of respiratory ailments in Wuhan (c.f. also SO₂ pollution satellite image below), difficulty of travel in the lockdown, fear of nosocomial infection, internment or overwhelmed hospitals. Also there’s the false negative rate as high as 50–70% perhaps due to swabbing in the throat instead of the nose per research cited below?
It seems plausible that China missed 80 - 90% of the infections. Thus estimated total infections in China as [of March 7](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:2019%E2%80%9320_coronavir
