EDMONTON — Alberta has expanded its coronavirus testing protocol to travellers returning from a number of countries aside from China as confirmed cases spike across the world.

The province is asking Albertans returning from Hong Kong, Singapore, Iran, South Korea, Japan and Italy to watch their symptoms, such as fever and cough, for 14 days.

Reporter in Brazil. No. 1 topic is corona.

The President will tell us true things.

Will he tell us what this is, and how we know? Probably not.

Will he tell us how many cases/quarantines there are? I hear of several that haven’t popped on the local radar.

Will he tell us “it’s already here?”

He will tell us truths. No accusing him of anything wrong. He is doing what he has to do and what he should do.

The economy is the market, dontcha know?

I think he he needs to keep things calm until they aren’t.

I live in Florida and have had the flu in the middle of August, so this myth that a flu or virus cant survive the heat is BS.

Re: Singapore -

It turns out the we have a perfectly good testing tool right here in the good ole US of A, and it’s been extensively tested in the field. See if you recognize one 4-letter American word in this article:

Stupid to put American lives on the line for global commerce at a point in time when that commerce is coming to a near complete halt.

Get killed by the yearly muslim holy stampede or by the virus? Choices, choices. Maybe both? Get sick, then trampled?

How do viruses survive in our bodies being we are at 98.6 degrees farenheit, if a virus is killed at 86 degrees?

The biggest scandal that is never mentioned is that the CDC messed up the Corona virus test kits they sent out. They are useless.

THUS For our population size, hardly anyone has been tested. While a South Korea is on the ball and is testing everyone who is suspicious.

So when crunch time came the CDC totally blew it. After all the billions they get each year. So much for faith in what they do in DC for our health and welfare.
