Today (Friday, Jan. 31, 2020), President Trump declared that the novel coronavirus presents a public health emergency in the United States. Also yesterday, under the guidance of the CDC, the White House Coronavirus Task Force announced a 14-day quarantine for Americans who recently visited Wuhan, China, the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak. This will begin at 5pm ET tomorrow (Sunday). The 195 evacuated Americans (including a group of U.S. government workers and private citizens) will remain at a military base in Southern California until mid-February.
The U.S. government has not issued a quarantine like this in over 50 years.
On Thursday, the W.H.O. declared that the coronavirus is a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” (PHEIC).
India has reported its first case.
Russia has closed part of its border with China, and more than 7,700 cases have been reported, with 170 deaths.
Things seem to be ratcheting up!
What Is a Coronavirus (CoV)?
The name “coronavirus” comes from its shape, which resembles a crown or solar corona when imaged using an electron microscope.
Coronavirus is transmitted through the air and primarily infects the upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tract of mammals and birds. Though most of the members of the coronavirus family only cause mild flu-like symptoms during infection, SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV can infect both upper and lower airways and cause severe respiratory illness and other complications in humans.
It has yet been determined whether the latest coronavirus is as lethal as SARS. SARS is another outbreak that began in China in 2002, infecting people through 2004. More than 700 people died worldwide of SARS.
This new coronavirus (nCoV-2019) causes similar symptoms to SARS and MERS. People infected with these coronaviruses suffer a severe inflammatory response. Both SARS and MERS are classified as “zoonotic” viral diseases, meaning the first patients who were infected acquired these viruses directly from animals. Now these viruses can be transmitted from person to person.
Here’s a very technical article written by James Lyons-Weiler which suggests that the nCoV-2019 is likely a human modified virus which the Chinese created using SARS spike glycoprotein.
DON’T WORRY… BE HEALTHY!
But it’s not time to fret or worry. It’s time to become educated about this outbreak. And it’s time to make sure you are doing everything you can to get and stay healthy, as the most likely people to suffer the most are those who are already immune compromised.
Also, research over the past two decades shows that certain herbal medicines and plants can fight the new Wuhan coronavirus contagion.
Sayer Ji recently published an article written by Dr. Case Adams about plants that have been shown to inhibit coronavirus, so here is the list:
- Amaryllis (Hippeastrum hybrid)
- Snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis)
- Daffodil (Narcissus pseudonarcissus)
- Red spider lily (Lycoris radiate)
- Leek (Allium porrum)
- Ramsons (Allium ursinum)
- Taro (Colocasia esculenta)
- Cymbidium orchid (Cymbidium hybrid)
- Twayblade (Listera ovata)
- Broad-leaved helleborine (Epipactis helleborine)
- Tulip (Tulipa hybrid)
- Black mulberry tree (Morus Nigra)
- Tobacco plant (Nicotiana tabacum)
- Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica)
Other Possible Remedies
Recently, a novel antiviral compound (K22) that inhibits replication of a broad range of animal and human coronaviruses was reported to interfere with viral RNA synthesis by impairing double-membrane vesicle (DMV) formation.
Silver has been utilized as a medicine since ancient times to treat scores of ailments, including the bubonic plague. It works by interfering with the enzymes that allow a virus to utilize oxygen thus, in essence, suffocating it so it cannot do damage in the body. Silver nanoparticles have proven to exert antiviral activity against HIV-1 at non-cytotoxic concentrations, but the mechanism underlying their HIV-inhibitory activity has not been not fully elucidated. In this study, silver nanoparticles are evaluated to elucidate their mode of antiviral action against HIV-1 using a panel of different in vitro assays.
An extract from red algae (called “Griffithsin”) can fight SARS and MERS infections. Griffithsin contains mannose-binding lectins, which have been shown to penetrate and break down the shells that surround this class of viruses – which includes nCoV-2019 virus.
Griffithsin is “not the only species of red algae that contains mannose-binding lectins. Another mannose-binding lectin found to be antiviral against these viruses is the Scytonema varium red algae, also called Scytovirin. Another one was found in the Nostoc ellipsosporum algae species – called Cyanovirin-N. A 2019 study from France’s Institut de Recherche et Développement tested a number of other species, and found the Ulva pertusa algae species contained lectins that fight these viruses. They also found the Oscillatoria agardhii blue-green algae halt replication of these viruses.”
Also, licorice root has been used for thousands of years for lung infections with similar symptoms as viral infection, and has been shown to be effective at reducing MERS and SARS replication.
Lastly, several types of essential oils have been shown to possess antiviral effects, including eucalyptus, clove, grapefruit, cinnamon leaf, tea tree, and lemon balm.
Stay tuned to TTAC as we monitor the coronavirus outbreak!
Being a 2-time breast cancer survivor, I have really appreciated and shared your well-researched articles over the past decade. Thank you. Recently I have experienced distress in trying to read your emails on my phone as they seem to jerk up and down a line or 2 every 5 seconds. I don’t think it’s my phone as I don’t have this problem with anything else. Just thought you might like to know and hope it can be corrected. God bless you all.
Hi Sandy, thanks for letting us know! We’ll look into this. And thank you for being a part of our community 🙂 We are so happy to hear
Same with me. Hard to keep track of where I was.
Great article that was very informative thank you for sharing I really appreciate it!
FYI, Safe, Cheap, Self Treatment to end ALL Viruses
This is a MUST WATCH 20 min video on how easy it is to treat yourself with Ozone. There have been over 350,000 Ozone treatments in the USA in the past years for viruses & other serious health problems. Dr Rowen has done us a great service & in my opinion is a Medical Hero for posting this information for the world to finally learn about this Safe, Cheap, Self Treatment to end ALL Viruses –
Coronavirus from a Perspective Outside the Mainstream:
Of course there’s buying the proper equipment to produce Medical Grade Ozone at home. You must use bottled Oxygen to make Medical Ozone, but that is readily available. There are many different machines available & the sellers all make them look like their machine is all you need.
But if you know what specs you actually need, you will find machines 1/3 the cost with better Ozone output than the ones people will normally point you to. It pays to know what you’re actually getting for your money rather than just buying something that sounds good on the net.
Dr Rowen almost makes it sound rather easy to use, but there are some huge caveats in his video he probably will wish had had mentioned. You really need to talk to someone who has been self treating themselves with ozone to help you avoid the beginner mistakes that will hurt you.

Which video?? I don’t see a link. Thx!
I can agree with the comment of the ozone treatment. I used it on sarcoidosis.
But, it must be stated, that trustworthy bottled oxygen is not easy to get without a medical prescriotion. If I’m incorrect, I haven’t seen a resource.
I looked into bottled oxygen from welding supply companies. But did not find enough info to support it’s purity that I would want being absorbed into my body.
If it’s safe, I found no credible source stating such.
Another option would be use of a hyperbaric chamber, but again, typically need a prescription and no common medical doctor would do so.

You are so correct, David. I’ve had this article on my computer for several years. Inarguable facts! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for informing us of the use of of natural remedies in the fight against this new virus.I feel sure there is more than we are being told and it does appear strange the DNA was given so quickly,and the building of 2 new hospitals in 2 weeks ,in China.God bless
x–oh forgot to ask,I have read that black elderberries have anti viral properties ,they grow wild here in UK,wonder what you think about this?many thanks for all you do x
Purell hand sanitizer kills the corona virus. Officials of the company were called to the CDC to stop them from advertising this. They have an agenda. Please watch this short video on youtube before they take it down.

Thanks for sharing this!
There are many articles substantiating the protective effect of Vitamin D3 and Iodine, as well as B complex and C against influenza and colds. Grandma’s Cod liver oil still works today as it did a century ago. Greedy Pharmaceutical companies really love flu “outbreaks”.

how come that vitamin C is not mentioned here?
Carola – thanks for sharing! Yes, Vitamin C also plays an important role.
I’m curious why nearly all these “pandemics” seem to originate in China?
Consider these posibilities Geographic location location and population density for quicker spread of disease. Add to this questionable food quality and sanitation issues. We all know about years of female infanticide in China for the purpose of population control. It makes sense to start a pandemic in a country with these conditions.
Sherry, Most hand sanitizers have chemicals that can make a person sick, as they absorb through the skin. There are alternatives that are safer.
Hello, one of my family members is currently taking chemo for Brest cancer. Sessions one day every week.
Would please let me know what natural remedies or steps can she take while going on this process?
Thanks,
God Bless you
Hi Jo, here is a list of our articles which discuss breast cancer and natural treatments: https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/?s=breast+cancer. We also recommend visiting Dr. Veronique Desaulnier’s site to learn more: https://breastcancerconqueror.com/. God bless.
Check Weston Price Foundation for excellent article on latest on coronavirus info.
Eating fruit high in Vitamin C especially citrus fruits and taking zinc supplements are suppose to help fight colds and flus.
Thank you for your diligent work in spreading the TRUTH. More power to you and your work and your family and your team!! Eugenicists want our population decreased. Bill Gates has clearly stated in the past that population decrease will happen through vaccination. Its all taking place right in front of our eyes. This is genocide and these murderers need to be held responsible. We all need to keep researching the truth and dig deeper and bring it to light!! PLEASE KEEP GOING !!
Great info, but I am surprised to see no mention of elderberry or agarikon – two very well researched and proven, powerful antivirals. Does this mean they are not effective on this virus?
The homeopathic prophylaxis for the coronavirus recently recommended in India is Arsenicum album C30 taken 3 days in a row. To be repeated monthly as long as necessary.
Another prophylaxis is vit. A, C and D3+K2 daily. If you come down with anything, add echinacea. If a URI and fever develops, apply chest poultices (hydrotherapy).
Hi David,
Thanks for the info, but I do not see a link to the “MUST WATCH” video? Can you provide one, please? Thank you,
Rob
