Despite worldwide efforts to contain the new coronavirus, hot spots continue to emerge and the number of cases is increasing. It’s only been a couple of months since the virus, called SARS-CoV-2, made its first public appearance in seafood and live animal market in Wuhan, China. Since then, the virus has jumped borders, infected more than 82,500 people and killed 2,810. But as with all past outbreaks, it will eventually come to an end.

So how will this story end? Experts say that one possibility is that cases of the disease will begin to decrease when enough people develop immunity, either by infection or vaccination. Another possible scenario is that the virus will continue to circulate and establish itself as a common respiratory virus.

At this point, it is very unlikely that the outbreak is contained in some places, according to experts. “This virus is increasingly likely to spread throughout the world,” said Aubree Gordon, associate professor of epidemiology at the University of Michigan. “We can still have some chance to contain it, but that window seems to be closing.”

The outbreak already meets two criteria of a pandemic: SARS-CoV-2 can infect people and cause disease, and can easily spread from person to person, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said Tuesday.) from the USA.  As the virus begins to infect communities in more countries, it is approaching the fulfillment of the third criterion: the worldwide spread of the virus.

About 95% of cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, are found in mainland China. However, peaks are occurring in other countries, including South Korea, Iran, Italy, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, India, Pakistan, and Japan. The CDC announced the first case of probable “community spread” of the virus in a patient in Northern California with no links to an affected region.

According to Gordon, SARS-CoV-2 spreads very easily, most cases of COVID-19 are not serious and therefore cannot be identified, and the virus has a long incubation period, or the time between a person is infected and when they begin to show symptoms, Gordon said. Here are a few tweets from the World Health Organization; how to take safety measures against this virus.

In addition, all containment efforts are based on what we know about the virus, and there is still a lot we don’t know. Quarantine periods are usually 14 days, according to the first studies that suggested it was the longest possible incubation period for the virus. But there is some evidence that the incubation period could be much longer.

There is a possibility that, even if we manage to stifle this virus, it could become a seasonal disease, returning every year like other seasonal diseases such as the flu or colds, Epstein said. If that happens, there is a possibility that it will have less impact during subsequent circulations because more people will have accumulated immunity, Adalja said. But it is still unclear whether humans can be reinfected with this virus, Gordon said. The other circulating coronaviruses can reinfect people because our immunity to them can affect time.

However, unmodified immunity with all viruses. With viruses as the cause of measles, once someone has it or has been vaccinated against it, they will not be infected again, Schaffner said.

Although diminishing immunity is the most likely cause of reinfection, it is also possible for viruses to mutate enough to evade the immune system. “But at this time, there is no evidence that the coronavirus is mutating significantly,” Gordon said. “The available viral sequences are almost identical.” It is difficult to predict how the virus will behave. We hope the cure for this virus works more rapidly, as this is affecting all major industries globally. Let us know in comments what are your thoughts on it.

According to the recent news, it seems that Deadpool is officially in Fortnite now. Although it still cannot be used as a character mask. Recently, few glimpses of appeared online where we see the highlights of the unorthodox hero in different parts of his little secret hiding place.

The places are like when he was seen last week in the bathroom of the room, but all we saw was his feet at that time. Of course, it was in the trailer that revealed this season’s battle pass, but we haven’t seen it completely in the game until this third week of challenges. What is even better about the character’s revelation is that we now know an interesting fact about him: he is a Fortnite player. Sounds interesting and exciting we know!!

But to know about the Deadpool, you need to head to the secret room where Deadpool is hanging out after navigating to the battle pass menu just as you did when trying to access his previous challenges. Instead of a closed-door with his feet underneath, Deadpool is outside and in his hiding place.

What we see from the glimpse is that He’s sitting in the access of computer players to get his Deadpool challenges with a controller in hand. It is difficult to see from the widest view of the room, but once you select the computer and the camera approaches your screen to show the challenges, you can see what you are doing. As expected, he is playing Fortnite.

While, we assume that if Deadpool is already in Fortnite, it makes sense that he is finally playing the game in some way. But it’s still a good find as Deadpool came out of hiding faster than some people might have expected in some Fortnite games.

While this may also have consequences on where we will see it in the coming weeks as it apparently moves with every new set of Deadpool challenges. Whether the Deadpool Fortnite game in the game is canonical or not, it seems something the character might be interested in anyway.

It’s also not the first time we’ve seen Fortnite connected to a Marvel property before. Fortnite had Marvel crossovers in the past with things like the Avengers: Endgame event that brought superhero masks to the game. Fortnite also appeared in the movie when Korg played the game while dating Thor. Korg was frustrated with a character called “Noobmaster69,” so maybe that player was Deadpool all the time. The Deadpool look will eventually be available to Fortnite players, so be sure to continue completing each week’s challenges to make sure you can get it when it launches.

You can now pre-order a new Resident Evil 3: Nemesis vinyl soundtrack double LP, featuring remastered audio from the original 1999 game. By the way, it is not the upcoming remake simply titled Resident Evil 3, set to launch on April 4, 2020.

There’s a regular Deluxe Edition and Limited Deluxe Edition, the latter of which includes purple discs instead exclusive to the Laced Records store. Both include “audiophile-quality, 180g heavyweight vinyl LPs housed in a striking gatefold sleeve.

There are Two Version of the Soundtrack Available for Preorder

Both of these soundtracks will cost $35.00. There’s a regular Deluxe Edition and Limited Deluxe Edition, the latter of which includes purple discs instead exclusive to the Laced Records store. Both include “audiophile-quality, 180g heavyweight vinyl LPs housed in a striking gatefold sleeve.

The artwork presented in this vinyl set is made by Boris Moncel, who previously worked with Lace Records to create works of art for the Resident Evil 0 and Resident Evil CODE: Veronica vinyl soundtracks.

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis first came to PlayStation in 1999, as a continuation of Resident Evil 2. Massively popular since 1998 Both games occur in the same period of time and are closely linked, although the next remake of RE3 could unite the two more with its various updates and history changes. The new version of Resident Evil 2, which was launched in 2019, was updated to include small references to the next RE3.

It’s not clear if Laced Records will release a vinyl record with the new Resident Evil 3 soundtrack, but at least, you can enjoy the sounds of the original in just a few weeks. Capcom will also launch a Resident Evil 3 demo on the PlayStation Store sometime in the future.

According to the recent statements the second in a trio of legendary Pokémon from the Unova region, Thundurus, will be available to fight in Pokemon GO Raid Battles starting March 2,

If you achieved to catch Thundurus, you’re maybe speculating what your CP and thoroughgoing statistics are and if it’s worth it or not. Well look no further here is the maximum CP and Tornadus figures, according to the game press.

Is it value rotary on Thundurus? No! What makes or breaks an electric type Pokémon is its access to Wild Charge. By far the best electric type loading movement and, in general, an excellent movement thanks to its great damage combined with the flexibility of its two bars of energy. While Thundurus’ attack is decent, its strongest electric-type charging movement is the mediocre Thunder, and its other movements are not much better. Even Pokémon like Luxray and Magnezone have a rhythm of Thundurus.

Furthermore, the Thundurus now also has a second form known as the Therian form that has 295 attacks according to Game Press. Looking at the website’s DPS (damage per second) spreadsheet, this increase in attack could be enough to place it just behind other notable electric-type attackers like Electivire and Raikou. However, as with Tornadus, we can only get its Incarnate form with 266 attacks at this time.

In other news, Niantic will hold special Raid weekends throughout the month of March. While Darkrai will be available from March 6 to 9, the altered form Giratina from March 13 to 16, Cobalion from March 20 to 23 and Lugia from March 27 to 30.

Players will have the opportunity to capture their bright forms during those moments. In addition, Cobalion and Lugia caught during their time will know an exclusive attack, Sacred Sword for Cobalion and Aeroblast for Lugia.

During the Cobalion Raid weekend, a new Special Research mission will be available. In addition, the normal type Pokémon, fire, water, electricity, and ice will appear more frequently in nature and Nincada will also appear in nature, as well as 5 km eggs. Karrablast and Shelmet will hatch more often than 5km eggs during the event.

Lastly, during the weekend of Lugia Raid, Solosis and Gothita will make their debut in the game. Solosis will be available in the wild during the day and Gothita will be available during the night. Both Pokémon can also be found in 5km eggs. Psychic-type Pokémon will appear more frequently in nature, raids and 2km eggs.

Rockstar Games has recently updated its website with a new and mysterious work of art, which began to stir the rumors and speculation of Grand Theft Auto VI soon. Although the artwork did not show any solid proof of the next Grand Theft Auto game, the piece suggests a little more towards the next Grand Theft Auto series. Although it has not yet been announced, it is a fairly shared opinion that it would be available for the PS5 and also for the Xbox Series X.

Is there any hidden message in the updated website?

As you know, no one has been able to really decode the new work of art, what some suggest is that there is nothing to be mocked or hidden inside. While the latter is certainly possible, a recent finding of a particular work of art suggests otherwise. More specifically, the GTAVINR Twitter account noted that a piece features 16 logos all aligned, which is obviously a strange design choice if there is nothing else. That said, maybe there is more.

The Twitter account notes that Grand Theft Auto VI, the supposed title of the next installment of the series, also has 16 characters. Interesting and exciting, right? but at least it’s a very strange coincidence. As you know, Rockstar Games is very deliberate.

It is also known to drip open teasers in this way. And it is also known that fans trolls sometimes. Who knows what this could be an example, but whatever it is, has Grand Theft Auto fans talking and reflecting?

Interestingly, Rockstar Games currently has two private videos not posted on its YouTube channel. It is believed that one of these is related to GTA Online, however, it is not clear what the other could be. Naturally, fans think it could be related to GTA 6. Let us know in the comment section about your thoughts on it.

As we know that 2020 is the year of technology. This year there’s a lot of games coming with advanced upgrades. With all the upcoming games on the way this year, no doubt there will be great titles to keep us busy. With some exciting games on consoles of the current generation like Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, The Last of Us 2 and Cyberpunk 2077, we also have the PS5 and Xbox Series X on the way. Yes, we really weren’t kidding 2020 is going to be huge.

There is also a diversity of exhilarating independent releases to take into account in 2020, such as the 12-minute thriller. The Boyfriend Dungeon love festival and the soulful and welcoming Spiritfarer management simulator. And if you can believe it, that’s just scratching the surface of the frankly massive and growing list of star games.

This list covers all the most exciting releases we will see in 2020 on a variety of platforms, and because of the way it is already being formed, it will be a great year for exciting game releases.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

People have been imagining of a new entry in the beautifully gentle life simulator since New Leaf floated in 3D. Luckily, Nintendo responded to all our prayers when they finally announced a new adventure with the name of Animal Crossing: New Horizons that will make its way to the Switch in 2020. Plus, it looks amazing. Located on a deserted tropical island, you get the Nook Inc Getaway package and board a plane to go for the best long-term vacation. With craftsmanship, lots of customization and so many new features that reach the world of Animal Crossing, we are eager to meet Tom Nook and Isabelle.

Ori and the Will of the Wisps

This game is an unquestionably delightful game, with magnificent hand-painted backgrounds. A moving story and the kind of difficult 2D stages that are difficult to quell. And fortunately, this gem is receiving a sequel: Ori and the Will of the Wisps, which takes us back to the beautiful but treacherous world of Ori and shows us new regions and creatures in the lush forest of Nibel. The specifics are still confusing, but it seems that Ori will be joined by an owl with purple feathers whose species seems to have been eliminated (except for one) by some calamity.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX

Even if roguelike dungeon trackers aren’t your jam, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX guarantees your attention. Released on March 3, it is a new version of the Red and Blue Rescue Team and sees players leading Pokémon teams in dungeons to complete different jobs. There are 386 Pokémon to recruit with several new additions of Gen 4 and Mega Evolutions. With features like autosave, auto mode, and stunning new images, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX looks good.

According to the recent statements and news circling around about. Google now seeks to obtain a license from the US government.

This could be a breath of fresh air for Huawei and could restore access to Google’s mobile services on mobile headsets such as the Mate 30 and the Mate Xs.

After all the bans imposed last year by the US government. Huawei somehow still stands, but it is possible that luck runs out soon. The United States is back trying to force TSMC to cut supplies for Huawei.

While most US-based companies are still banned from dealing with Huawei without a license. For this reason, Huawei cannot now include Google’s mobile services (GMS) that include Play Store, Gmail, Maps and YouTube on their mobile devices, and Google itself is not happy with the situation.

The Google license was extended for a short time at the end of 2019, but all Huawei 2020 smartphones such as the Mate 30 and the Mate Xs foldable (which are not yet available in the U.S.). Already have an operating system Android cropped and an AppGallery store that does not offer support for popular applications such as Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Instagram, Uber, Netflix, Amazon, Spotify, etc.

It is true that Google previously warned that downloading Gmail and YouTube on affected Huawei devices could lead to security risks, but Google also knows that Huawei can contribute a lot of money by granting Android licenses on its mobile devices. Not wanting to further damage trade relations with Huawei, Google is now trying to obtain a license from the US government.

The possibilities may not be in favor of Google, since the US government. They are still accusing Huawei of conspiracy and theft of trade secrets through intercepted devices, doing everything possible to make the company impotent.

However, Google is aware that Microsoft was able to obtain a similar license for Huawei MateBook 13 and MateBook X Pro notebook models in December 2019, so at least there is a precedent. The success of Google would immediately allow Huawei to restore access to the GMS suite on all affected devices.
