Coronaviruses - Alert!
Extremely valuable info on this half-hour podcast. Start at 4 minutes in. WELL worth your time. Highly recommended, university level epidemiological class given in terms the layman will understand.
Wuhan must be a major hub for travel.
I think the saudi arabia virus was one caught being shipped by chinese spies out of Canada.
Cant remember details other Than it contained coronavirus versions.
Waiting to see if it effects non asians or mutates to effect them
“Wuhan must be a major hub for travel.”
Denver has loads of Wuhan IT workers.
How truly good./s
Thanks! (I have been somewhat prepared since SARS and ebola. Able to hunker down for awhile.)
Years ago, I worked for a mining company in Denver and we had engineers from all over the world. The new receptionists were always paging Wun Hung Lo.
Trump needs to declare a national emergency and shut down ALL incoming passenger traffic from China. Stat! As in “today”.
Come back in a week and see how right I was about this.
Why can't people be precise. "The patient took CheapAir flt 237 from Wuhan to LAX via the Phillipines on Jan 18 2020..."
This s4it is annoying.
Very much so, there's been about 14,000 flights to the US since the outbreak was discovered, roughly 5,000,000 passengers have taken flights through Wuhan have at least touched US soil. Many went onto other flights (and visited tourist destinations.) This doesn't count all those who took indirect flights to the US.
Which makes me kinda doubtful over the whole purported virulence of this infection. Oh, and of course also demonstrates how security theaters the actions are in 'isolating' areas; the cat left the bag weeks ago.
Don’t be silly...some hack judge will declare Trump can’t do that...
“Wuhan must be a major hub for travel.”
It is.
It is both a major North-South crossroads as well as East-West.
11 million people.
Up to 10 day incubation period.
I thought this British guy had it, but now they claim it is just a bad case of some other flu. He lost 70 pounds He was in a Thai hospital. He ad previously traveled through Wuhan. Wonder if their test was accurate.
British tourist feared to have Chinese coronavirus ‘just has the flu’ https://mol.im/a/7916283 via @MailOnline
