    I think 3 out of 240 some have died, although several are in intensive care

    The CDC is screening travelers from China at 3 major international airports. Might not be enough.

    Yeah, short of worst Korea, China is about the worst possible place for this to happen. We’ll likely never get the trust about its spread.

    I'm actually sick and back in the U.S. :gfa: (pretty sure I got a bug in Vietnam or Singapore...long flights aren't good for health).

    This was actually reported quite early in China, for the record. The numbers are no doubt being minimized, but the seriousness with which it is being handled is likely appropriate. Public health concerns are a pretty big deal with the near-term history in the region. Hong Kong was already on high alert before the Western world started hearing about it.

    Am I naive for theorizing that these coronaviruses aren’t actually that easily spread from human-to-human, which is why they always seem to occur in and be mostly limited to densely populated areas?

    Also, in 3 days starts the largest movement of people ever recorded with the lunar new year festivals. This is not good timing.

    Zika and Ebola aren't coronavirus. Coronavirus can spread via respiratory secretions making them highly contagious. These viruses wi continue to mutate which will make it easier to transmit. Just think how easy it is to get a cold from someone. That is most likely a coronavirus.

    This isn't even it's final form.
