A coronavirus carrier has concealed her symptoms and flown from Los Angeles to Beijing to seek treatment in China.

The Chinese woman, who lives in the US with her family, claimed to have been denied the coronavirus test three times by American doctors before resorting to the drastic measure, said officials in Beijing.

She gobbled down anti-fever medicine in the airport before boarding the 13-hour flight with her husband and son, authorities claimed.

Just another case via airline of “Chinese Virus Carry Out”.

There you go, being logical again. Can’t have that so stop it and return to hair on fire mode.

I am not a CV denier though, but I sort of was not considering it seriously. I consider the pandemic a serious threat. Why?

1. Different from flu, we have no natural immunity. It is to us like smallpox was to the American Indians
2. It is 4 to 6 times more contagious than traditional cold / flu virus. Why?
3. It is a very tough virus with a high rate of survivability in the environment. We have no natural immunity to it.
4. The relatively low infection and death rates for China as a part of the whole population are not average. They are for a population subjected to draconian measures and enforced quarantine. We have no such thing. Even with the Chinese efforts it was bad.
5. We are now at an infection rate similar to Italy of two short weeks ago. If we don’t do something serious to contain / mitigate we will be where they are now IN A HELL OF A HORRIBLE MESS.

I was a skeptic but upon study of the facts I am no longer. We are on self-imposed isolation and I have sent my helper home for at least two weeks. We may extend our program.

Not sure if this is Chinese propaganda or what

---

it doesn’t matter whether it is propaganda or not. It doesn’t matter if it is true or not. It doesn’t matter whether she stated her condition correctly to the medical professionals or not!!! It is racist and we are in a PANDEMIC. We have to panic. Create long last laws and regulations to ensure that something like this NEVER happens again.

OMG! The sky truly is falling {sarc}
