Yes, been following those 2 bloggers, they’re sincerely trying to be informative.

My 2 cents.

1) Train to Busan is a great zombie film.
2) More and better gadgets are sold every year.
3) The world is a mess.

Coronavirus escapes China.

Go crazi

Train to Busan :+1:

So, some people call it the Wuhan coronavirus.

Others call it the novel coronavirus, though I don't quite understand that one.

My older sister in North Carolina works at a hospital, and they informally call it the kung fu virus.

Pretty bad, huh?

Bra-less, in Wuhan (had a run on face masks early on)

“Others call it the novel coronavirus, though I don’t quite understand that one.”

Squirrel says:
“I think ”novel” means new in the way it is used. However I certainly could be wrong.”

Approximately 8.75 million people live in NYC according to the internet. Wu Han has a population of 11 million. It has to be an almost unimaginable hell for people in that city if food becomes in low supply. I have heard medical services are just barely able to help the coronavirus sufferers. Lots of people in an area of that size have other medical needs also. It is so sad.

I did a little research...

"A novel coronavirus means that this strain has not previously been identified in humans."

And, yes, "novel" means "new."

They aren’t calling it Kung Flu?

The CDC is Kung Flu fighting...

Hopefully the CDC will find a KUNG POW! vaccine before the Hunanvirus
hit our shores. :frowning:

The miracle of wonders.

United States Postal Service Alert

ALERT: USPS WILL BE TEMPORARILY SUSPENDING THE GUARANTEE ON PRIORITY MAIL EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL DESTINED FOR CHINA AND HONG KONG, EFFECTIVE MONDAY, FEB. 10, 2020, DUE TO WIDESPREAD AIRLINE CANCELLATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS INTO THIS AREA.

Just saw this alert while checking the tracking on a package.

The extended Chinese New Year has just ended.

Extending the holiday or calling news something else doesn't change the facts

The Convoy Store on AE updated today to show delay in processing orders another week or two.

The coronavirus may continue to infect more until warmer weather arrives in China areas of infection and other countries where the virus has spread.

A small group from the World Heath Organization was allowed entry into China but the request to enter from the US CDC has been denied.

Just saw a video someone posted of the inside of those rapidly built hospitals. It seems they aren't hospitals at all, just beds, no medical supplies, no hot water, toilet outside 200 metres away.

There is a Dutch proverb that (badly translated) says: better a good copy, than a bad idea.
So unless you come up with a good idea ……….

For the cure goes the same: it probably will be ready when the next outbreak comes along.

But that’s not the greatest headache for the authorities. That’s the people itself. They want more, and they get more, bit by bit. The people now have reached third base, figuratively speaking. But they long for the one thing that is still missing: freedom of thought and speech. One spark is enough to set things in motion. Why all the weird cover-ups.
In this day and age word no longer proceeds with the speed of sound. Today word proceeds with the speed of light. And unlike sound, light travels faster than bullets.
