so there are no officially confirmed cases in Indonesia, right?

I bought like 20 items from Vaghina since the cerveca virus dropped, no probs so far.
i read today another 254 died and many thousands new cases…it looks not so good……and thats just per one day………who knows the truth,which will be probably much worst…
Let’s begin with stating everybody uses other numbers, and every dead person is one too many.
I have other numbers. Seems they have changed the “definition” of a person infected by Corona.
The number of cases has risen by 14,480 and the death toll has risen by 242 people in one day.
The new definition has increased the total number of deaths with 135 persons in previous days.
So the most recent death toll is “only” 107 persons in one day. Which is also horrifying.
right……but this source here is trustfully……and thats official…who knows….sincerely,for me is sad,that i can not order anything…but i saw also in my city some people with masks….weeks ago…chinese…i wasnt sure,if they are crazy or paranoic…now i understand…it totally crazy whats going on n China these weeks…
Any link/source to this subject?
Searched Eu vat packages, I think this site is relevant.
https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/business/vat/modernising-vat-cross-border-ecommerce_en
If the sites adapt and demand Vat for each orders, refunding it to the buyers country, then for my country there will be only 25 % added, no handling fees. As it will soon be now, it will also add handling fee $32 atop. Think this will result me to buy less of the cheapest brands, and switch to buy some of the premium brands instead. Ofc much less shopping and orders.
I did not catch the source but last night I heard that this has the potential to affect 60% of the world’s population. No fear mongering intended. Just saying.
Winston (surpentza on youtube) was right. He talks about the way China counts (or doesn’t count), the number of cases. And I suspect there is many more than what they are saying now
(link removed)
What I found most disturbing in Winston's video is that there are people with active symptoms who bragged that they circumvented the Chinese quarantine control. These people made it out of China and are now in France, Australia or anywhere else without being properly checked for any infection of nCoV. So much for the phrase "we have everything under control". With an incubation period of up to 24 days and a disease progression of up to 5 weeks until death or full recovery occurs things have become out of control some weeks ago already.
Usually, when politicians say "we have everything under control", people become alerted. This phrase serves only one purpose: to prevent any panic. Now that masks/respirators are out of stock, also urgent medication like ibuprofen is subject to panic buying everywhere.
I placed two orders from Banggood’s CN warehouse this week. One shipped almost right away, the other took a few days.
Just got a work e-mail about Covid-19 policy updates:
Here are a few excerpts:
The University has decided that staff and students should not travel on university business to China, Thailand, Japan, Republic of Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia or Macau … This list will be kept under review.
There have been reports nationally of some individuals being avoided or harassed. The university has a zero tolerance approach to any reports of behaviour likely to cause harassment or intimidation. Anyone with concerns should report them to ———- … … Incidents of abuse or intimidation may also be reported to the police.

A little freaky…
A virus called Wuhan-400 makes people terribly ill … in a Dean Koontz thriller from 1981
Of course I am a bit cautious, but I also would like to see how things are developping.
So yesterdag I ordered a (budget) light from Banggood.
And this morning (Feb.13th) I found an email in my inbox that it was shipped.
(arrived Mar.23th)
But the parts that BG shipped on Jan.13th are still out somewhere.
(arrived Feb.20th)
The parts I ordered from Kaidomain on Jan.23rd are still being processed.
(shipped Feb.27th, arrived Mar.13th)
And by looking at his status, I guess the Gearbest rep has not yet returned to work.
(MIA from 20191225 till 20200312)
I will keep you updated on any changes.
Hello, the Logistics has been normal the day before yesterday, we asked the logistics company today.
Seems like logistics will soon normalise.
There’s new evidence that the virus can spread before you show symptoms.
That’s because you’re carrying the virus before your body has fully launched its defense, releasing histamines and other immune responses that cause miserable symptoms of fever and congestion.
That’s a disturbing finding that is propelling U.S. efforts to contain the virus.
It means it is behaving like flu, which can be spread a day before illness.
If I’ve traveled to China but I feel fine, why does the U.S. want to quarantine me? That’s a question being asked in the wake of Friday’s extraordinary order of a mandatory quarantine of all Americ…
On Saturday, the World Health Organization announced “possible transmission of 2019-nCoV from infected people before they developed symptoms.” There are now 11,953 confirmed cases in 24 nations; of these, 11,821 are in China. There have been 259 deaths.
In the first documented case, scientists reported in the New England Journal of Medicine that a Shanghai businesswoman had no symptoms while on a January trip in Germany. She became sick only on her flight home.
But a German man who had meetings with the woman became sick. And he transmitted the illness to two other Germans.
In a Jan. 24 paper published in the journal Lancet, focusing on one family who came down with pneumonia in Shenzhen, one child with the virus did not show any symptoms.
“Because asymptomatic infection appears possible, controlling the epidemic will also rely on isolating patients, tracing and quarantining contacts as early as possible, educating the public on both food and personal hygiene, and ensuring health care workers comply with infection control,” Dr. Kwok-Yung Yuen from the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital, who led the research, said in a statement.
Harvard’s Marc Lipsitch said evidence indicates that the international cordon keeping coronavirus cases bottled up in China is a leaky one, and it’s likely that the relative handful of global cases reported so far are undercounted. If true, that will...
… Harvard’s Marc Lipsitch views with suspicion. Lipsitch thinks it is just a matter of time before the virus spreads widely internationally, which means nations so far only lightly hit should prepare for its eventual arrival in force and what may seem like the worst flu season in modern times. Lipsitch, professor of epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and head of the School’s Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics, talked to the Gazette about recent developments in the outbreak and provided a look ahead.
You do not need to be a Harvard professor to expect that as a possible outcome, follow the news, see the numbers and the easiness of transmission of this particular strain and you can come to that conclusion by yourself.
Still there are up to now surprisingly few cases outside China, the world is doing an effective job delaying the spread, and even if that only means that a pandemic is postponed, winning time gets us a tiny bit closer to an effective vaccine that is expected in a year and a half (that hopefully will be worldwide available).
Taiwan claims DHL packages unshipped to China due to corona
I’m just concerned about the cruise liners — which seem perfectly set up to spread the virus, not so much among well off passengers in their windowed staterooms with outside decks, but in the windowless shared below deck rooms used by staff and by low-cost cruise passengers.
Not all of the Americans on board the vessel, which is currently quarantined in Japan, are sick. Those who are will remain in Japan for treatment.
44 Americans on the cruise ship have been infected, though not all are sick.
Fortunately a lot of bat caves are closed to exploring due to the spread of white nose fungus, perhaps lessening the chance some sick caver will pass the virus to local bat populations.
I wonder what other mammals (and birds?) can host it?
