Damn I wouldn’t be surprised
Hey, to any of our friends in China or who know people there- how is the extra week or two of unplanned time off effecting people financially?
It’s alright to sit at home & watch movies/ play games, but the food & rent still has to be paid.

Don't think of China as a capitalist form of government and people are fully in control of their lives and choices.
In China the government controls almost everything including healthcare and 100% of media coverage.

….ok, that’s unrelated. Can you share anything about what I asked? Or please allow others to
There are now 31,107 members on this forum. Almost as many as have been confirmed to have taken Corona virus (43,128). So for anyone to come on here spouting “truths” about what works to kill virus’s in the human body, they would have to know a LOT of people’s medical history! I have enough medical history that I know too well how some things affect other things. Take this, it X’s out that. Colloidal Silver is one of those things. It is not readily absorbed by the body and so it tends to sit in the Kidney for the life of the person. In older age, some medications the Dr.s might need to prescribe are adversely affected by the collection of silver in the kidney, which metabolizes a lot of the medicines we take. Thus, when you reach the point in life you need those meds, you are FUBAR. We are all the same, in more ways than we are all different. But those differences are critical. The number of people recovering from the Corona virus is growing rapidly, well over 4,000 now and climbing (4294). And yes, 1018 people have reportedly died from this new virus. Virtually all of them in the Hubei district of China (974). And only 2 deaths reported outside of mainland China (1 in Hong Kong and 1 in the Phillipines). This is a sad and unfortunate series of events that has hit a large community with little recourse for treatment. The way people are being treated in this area is largely unacceptable, unbelievable in this day and age even. And yet, there it is. I have read a report that suspects a Virological Research Institute in Wuhan to have leaked this virus. They have been studying it since 2016, the report states. And they have leaked before, causing much trouble in 2004. Perhaps the day will come that they understand what happened and how, and be better suited to treat people should such an occurrence happen again. The Flu is still killing +thousands+ in the US, hundreds of millions of vaccines given or not.
This may help you better understand how the system works. https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/12/30/rethinking-medical-associations-best-interests.aspx
Balance is the key. There is a place for both modern and alternative medicine. When one rules out the other, the balance is broken. Both sides have their shameful history and both have their merits.
I think it was wrong the way the cruise line informed those passengers of their plight when the Captain told them “I have good news and bad news, the good news is that your 7 day cruise has been extended to 7 weeks, free of charge”

RobertB:An eye opener from a couple people who’ve lived in china for 20yrs, and both married to chinese woman. One is married to a chinese physician, not sure what the other one does. They are both speak fluent mandarin. Way more people infected than being reported
264:According to Wikipedia “Youtuber SerpentZA (Winston)” was a English teacher and Motorcycle manufacturer, and blogger in China. Wiki does not mention anything about him being a medical doctor as he states in the embedded videos.
Winston Sterzel - WikipediaIn one of the videos Winston said he taught doctors western bedside manner and basic hygiene in a hospital setting. I inferred from that statement he meant he was a doctor also.
He has never inferred he was a doctor. But did teach English to doctors and hospital staff. That’s where he met his wife, who is a Physician. He personally knows many chinese doctors, including the one who just passed away from the virus.
Ok I misunderstood his statement. I was wrong.
I don’t think you have anything to say. You seem to just be posting about vague general ideas. Spit it out if you have something to contribute. Nobody here likes you enough to keep playing 21 questions to get through your insecurities.

It is related.
Our friends in China may not be free to post about what is truly happening there at the risk of government retaliation. Internet in China is highly censored. Big brother is watching.
On the Dutch TV-news was an item that suggests China also applies compartmentalization. People who want to go to work after the prolonged CNY holiday must go in quarantine for 14 days before they can enter their work place. That implies that the practical CNY holiday is extented with another 14 days. Till the end of the month.
I ordered from Simon (Convoy) on 02/04/2020, still pending shipping…
Has anyone seen the estimates of how much this has cost China financially, so far, and which portion of that or the amount that they have spent to date in dealing with this?
There are major layoff right now.
many of my contacts cannot go to their offices in the cities - but they started teleworking...
and some of the big warehouses are outside the shut down areas - they are operational as well and shipping items.
