“They, and not the Central Americans, are the real refugees...”

And white kids are too busy studying SJWism to be in class. Those Asian kids are disproportionately in Engineering and science.

They work hard are polite, a large number of them are Christian. If that is infested then we need more such bugs.

I was just reading already here in the DFW Metroplex there have been 11 flu-related deaths this year.

That is a pretty darned good mortality rate!

I thought it was lower than that. That is rather terrifying.

Sadly , I don't think so .
My sister lived in bay area for 30 years .
The kid gets a H1 visa job and moves the entire chinese extended family like a neighborhood over .
They are the ticket to take good American jobs here .
All are Loyal to China and CCP .
They all vote 70-80 Dem .
And spy .
They are told to gather data on the CCP interview to leave and on all return visits .
And now you know why we see Chinese in Mt Dora FL .

that is MERS not this strain. Time will tell but so far I haven’t seen anything that would make this worse than influenza

Yes. influenza is widespread and deadly every year but not nearly as sexy to talk and hyperventilate about.

Can you imagine Orlando with all those Chinese that visit and never leave.
They are pouring in like a broken city water pipe .

We need to stop all of these flights and screen people
outside the US like MIDWAY .

We have bats. The cats just this minute brought me a snake. All that's left is for a camel to wander through the yard.

Among confirmed MERS-CoV cases reported to date, the case fatality proportion is approximately 35%.

Take a wild guess what the "CoV" stands for.

There are hundreds of corona viruses. Not all of them are the same. Take a breath.

Yes, I think it’s out there. The mortality rate may be hard to determine (at first) because the Chinese always lie and in addition it’s mutating.

To make it worse, I read that Wuhan was in the news about a year ago because China moved its equivalent of the CDC with its most lethal contagious diseases research facility to Wuhan at that time. So who knows?

It is encouraging that the one or two cases we have had here appear to have recovered pretty quickly. We will see when we have more reliable data

Yep, I saw that too. It’s not helping my paranoia at all.
