Quelle surprise.

Meanwhile, THAILAND

Thailand has confirmed three more novel coronavirus cases, taking the country’s total to 40, and authorities criticised one of the patients for denying a trip to Japan and said the country will step up efforts to contain the disease.

Two of the new patients, all of whom were Thai nationals, had returned from vacation in Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido and came into contact with the third patient, an 8-year old boy, said Sukhum Kanchanapimai, permanent secretary for public health.

Somewhere, in an ICU bed in this country, there’s a case of this that has infected every single medical person that’s come in contact with them. And the cleaning people. And the receptionists. And anyone who sat next to them in the ER before they were admitted.

But they haven’t been tested yet because they didn’t recently arrive from China.
