Chinky figures can't be trusted.

They are burning bodies in secret.

Chinese-language news outlet Initium interviewed people working at local cremation centres in Wuhan, who said bodies were being sent directly from hospitals without being properly identified and added to the official record.

Make sure you are healthy! boost immune system with copious amounts of Vit C before after and while flying, don't drink too much, unless you go to Muddy Murphy's then you can have lots of Guinness.
I flew into Singapore during the height of SARS, seriously - I was the only person in the terminal apart from a few staff, probably get quiet for travel.
Good time to travel, Eyes open: No fear!

You sound like an old man that has lost touch to reality.
God bless your naivety.

Yea, it's not all under control in China, where the health system is unbalanced and understaffed

OhOh ! Go sic'em!
Let's hear some of your communist propaganda before you fall to your knees for your last count. GAME OVER !!!!

The coronavirus outbreak is much worse than Chinese gov't admits!!!!

Yea, dress it up afterwards as you wish . . . it's obvious . . . trying to plant seeds of doubt, obfuscating and deflecting

Ah, now it's 'our prejudices', not yours . . . see how you did that again? Nice try

As for watching TV news and MSN . . . you clearly haven't been paying attention as your throw-away sentence is a tired and boringly dismissive attempt at showing that you know where to get 'real' information

All the figures released up to date are gross numbers, which nobody has broken down into citizens of any country, genetic groups, sex, age etc. Although I did read an article suggesting more older people die, % wise, compared to children.

If you mean suggesting alternatives, offering sourced information, I agree. Lets get the "official clearly labelled facts", as opposed to non specified MSM you allude to:

"Verified" sources would be easy to find for such allegations, I suspect.

My sources are listed, yours, sometimes. Believe the sources that I post or that you post, if you wish to or not. It's up to you.

As many know there are always "sources" to supply the 180° view. Are your sources backed with any identified, responsible, person of stature?

U.S. declares coronavirus public health emergency after imposing quarantines

Snippets:

"The Trump administration, while insisting the risk to Americans from coronavirus is low, nevertheless declared a public health emergency on Friday and announced the extraordinary step of barring entry to the United States of foreign nationals who have recently visited China."

"In addition, U.S. citizens who have traveled within the past two weeks to China’s Hubei Province - epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic - will be subject to a mandatory quarantine of 14 days, the incubation period of the virus, officials said."


"Americans who visited other parts of mainland China will undergo special health screening upon their return, followed by up to 14 days of “monitored self-quarantine,” under the temporary restrictions."


The latest U.S. patient was identified only as a man in Santa Clara County, south of San Francisco, who became ill after traveling to China and has “self-isolated” at home, Sara Cody, director of public health for the county, told reporters.

She said the CDC was seeking to determine whether the man was infectious while flying home."

"The ban on U.S. entry of foreign nationals who have traveled to China during the past 14 days would exempt immediate family of U.S. citizens and permanent U.S. residents, Azar said. It was not immediately clear how long the ban would be in effect."

Pilots, flight attendants demand flights to China stop as virus fear mounts worldwide

Snippets:

"Pilots and flight attendants are demanding airlines stop flights to China as health officials declare a global emergency over the rapidly spreading coronavirus, with American Airlines’ pilots filing a lawsuit seeking an immediate halt."

"The Allied Pilots Association (APA), which represents American Airlines pilots, cited “serious, and in many ways still unknown, health threats posed by the coronavirus” in a lawsuit filed in Texas, where the airline is based.
American said it was taking precautions against the virus but had no immediate comment on the lawsuit. On Wednesday, it announced flight cancellations from Los Angeles to Beijing and Shanghai, but is continuing flights from Dallas. "

Germany confirms seventh coronavirus case

"Germany on Friday confirmed a seventh case of coronavirus, identifying the victim as a man who works at a company in Bavaria where five other workers had earlier tested positive. Earlier on Friday, authorities identified the sixth victim as the child of a male employee at the same company, car parts supplier Webasto.

“Thus, there are currently a total of seven known coronavirus cases in Bavaria,” the Bavarian Health Ministry said in a statement.

Details would be announced on Saturday, the statement said.
Originating in the Chinese city of Wuhan, the flu-like virus first identified earlier in January has resulted in 213 deaths in China. More than 9,800 people have been infected in China and more than 130 cases reported in at least 25 other countries and regions.

Webasto [WEBA.UL] said earlier on Friday that two more of its employees have tested positive for the coronavirus.
Webasto began disclosing the illnesses of the other workers this week in what was one of the first cases of person-to-person transmission outside China.
One of the newly-diagnosed employees was German and in Germany, while the other is Chinese and in Shanghai. Both were being treated in hospital, Webasto said.

All seven, five Germans and two Chinese, had taken part in various long meetings at Webasto headquarters in Stockdorf, Bavaria, the firm said. The Bavarian ministry later said the number of cases in Germany had risen to seven - including the child.
“A round of testing for employees took place there on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,” the ministry said of the company. “Of 128 results now available, 127 were negative.”

On Monday, the company first announced that a Chinese employee from Shanghai had tested positive for the virus upon return to China following a visit to company headquarters. Other illnesses in Germany were disclosed during the course of the week.
Webasto’s headquarters will remain closed through Monday.
Webasto, which has 11 locations in China, including in Wuhan has banned corporate travel to and from China."

Could we not just get The Donald to drop a nuke on the little nasty fukers. ?

He would do it in a heart beat God bless him .

The Guardian has stated in an article today that over 28,000 tourists from Wuhan and other infected areas visited Thailand in the past four weeks or so but allegedly the majority have now returned to China with the remainder to be airlifted by charter, as and when.
With the self imposed embargo on Chink tour groups leaving China, we can perhaps assume peak Chink threat has been reached and surpassed.

Certainly, here in Pattaya it is now self evident the China hordes have deserted the place. There are no lines of punters disgorging from tour buses crossing Beach Road for the tour boats to Koh Larn or the offshore paragliding platforms, nor are there any tour buses shuffling their way from their skanky cheapo chink hotels in Naklua etc into Pattaya Central or down Sukhumvit Rd to the bogus tourist sites between here and Bang Saray.

Pattaya's salvation delivering it from possible epidemic contamination was/is the not entirely insignificant fact most of the fuckers rarely travel independently and are shuttled everywhere by their tour buses and herded to whichever shithole is on their itinerary, lessening contact with we expats.

Bangkok, Chiangmai and Phuket are a different proposition but the next fortnight will be the reckoning.

I think most Chinese will be avoiding crowded transport terminals.

It seems the chinkies just love spreading viruses.

It's no wonder. They have a very lax attitude towards public hygiene. Some of those wet markets were a disgrace. They've actually made huge improvements around here the last couple of years but from the pics I saw of the Wuhan market where they they think all this started, disgraceful.

Oh, bless you
Old age is great, able to use common sense and logic rather than jumping on the "fear" wagon!
~150,000 people die everyday of various causes! so in the month of January since the virus was discovered 4,650,000 people have died, 131 of these were people that were "vulnerable" and died from the virus, let me think about that? should I be alarmed! More people probably died from drinking Corona beer that from the "Virus" not going to stress myself for a while yet

Poor hygiene pales into insignificance when one ponders the threat of keeping differing wildlife species caged together in close proximity awaiting their sale in these markets for human consumption.

That has been the threat that was revealed to the world in the SARS outbreak but because the mainland rural Chink, living in the boonies or as factory fodder in the urban environment, loves to eat shit the bastards have recklessly and stupidly persisted with this disgusting practice with the result the whole world is threatened by the bastards.

The whole of fucking China should be quarantined until they undertake to ban all these markets. Period.

On a lighter note...

This virus might be good for something after all.
