Wuhan Virus

Post by TheCatt »

The State Department issued a new travel advisory Monday, urging U.S. travelers to "reconsider travel" to China because of coronavirus.
I was reconsidering travel within the US... They appear to have no clear knowledge on incubation.

Friend of mine is in Singapore now (living there 2 years). He says that if anyone has gone to China they have to quarantine for 2 weeks before they can go out in public.

I'm going into the air tomorrow and wondering if the world will be quarantined when I land.

Something I hadn't considered.... the kid's private school just put on a general message. Since a good chunk of the students are from Asia, China specifically, and since a bunch of them just spent the holidays home in China, we're on the lookout.

Yeah. We live in the most Asian part of the state, so similar deal.

Just realized being in Cambridge this week I'm surrounded by all those students at Harvard + MIT. Thank goodness they discriminate, or there'd be more :shock:

UK confirmed their first case.

Doctors announced today that you can spread the virus without symptoms.

Some asshat under quarantine in CA tried to escape. That proves the assholes who get bitten in zombie films and don’t tell anyone are real.

I am slightly wary of Asian people around me, but that's not racism. That's 'it started in China'

Guy wears gas mask on plane, everyone gets alarmed, he gets removed.
"My gut reaction was that he was probably worried about the coronavirus and had put on the gas mask as overkill kind of protection," Say told KTRK. "But then I noticed it didn't have the filter, so that didn't really make sense."
