Local hospital policy is all workers who have not had the flu shot must wear a mask when contacting patients.

H1N1 did not necessitate the quarentene11-40 million people, nor cause the PLA to be deployed.

“Supposedly this is more contagious but not as deadly”

Then people shouldn’t panic. And no one knows yet how contagious it is.

Current run rate for reported cases in China is 3+% fatality.

As hospitals fill, the number will go higher.

Consider this: What happens if the corona virus starts running around California’s & Washington’s homeless encampments?

I'm much more concerned about how this coronavirus will inevitably disproportionately effect the black transgender population.

They are digging up roads and the PLA has shut down the airports and train stations.

I mean do you need this many troops to shutdown a rail station?

They are in a panic.

What happens if you want to leave? Are the Commies shooting people.
If that happens, you know you have a Chinese Apocalypse.

No one has ever even attempted such a thing. The troops in hazmat units were reportedly:

I’m watching it because
1) it’s China,and one assumes they’re lying,
2) they’ve “quarantined” over 40 million people and have taken other measures never before taken there,
3) and infectious disease, especially new strains interest me. I’m a nurse.

It sounds like it’s very contagious.

One super spreader gave it to 14 medical professionals.

It’s spread to 11 nations already.

Maybe it will be like SARS and peter out after 4 or 5 transmissions. But quarantines make sense. And precautions make sense.

WOW, digging up roads so cars cant pass? This is just crazy.

Imagine doing that in the US. People would be freaking out and rioting.

In China, they are afraid of being imprisoned or shot.

Numbers game - SARa only reached 8000 in a year and 800 people died.

We will likely see 8000 infected within 10 days
