Quote:Just spoke with @BOSTON_EMS A sick passenger was on a flight from Beijing that arrived @BostonLoga this afternoon. They refused transport to the hospital & did not meet the criteria for coronavirus.

Yeah and just what the fuck is the criteria?? THEY DON'T SHOW FUCKING SYMPTOMS.

FFMP
That's some bullshit, dude.
And look at the fucking video, they're ALL ASIAN.
God.

America needs to start shutting down flights to/from China fucking now.
People are about to start getting pissed over this.
Check out this MSM article smearing the names of Twitter users who have been at the top of reporting about this shit from the beginning...

https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...ter/605644

Will they attempt to take down the accounts of these users?

That would be a very, very bad decision.
ANYONE coming FROM CHINA "meets the criteria" of being infected with the coronavirus, ESPECIALLY since they don't show symptoms at first... PERIOD.

This incident ALONE proves that this situation is being mishandled on an extreme level in the US.
Have the Authorities now decided to operate under a "Yellow Alert"?
Quote:U.S. CDC says no new cases of coronavirus so far, but 97 people are still being tested. They expect more cases.

That 97 number is all the tests they took like 5 days ago still waiting to be verified.

Yes. This should've been implemented several days ago!

Hahahaha.
On a serious note, can you imagine the fatalities if/when this thing grows
legs and it hits the homeless communities there? They THINK SanFran is 
an open sewer NOW, ooooooh just you wait!! California will literally be up
shit creek with no paddles in sight.
Quote:Good tracker linking to case-specific news & overview here: data looks rather unreliable. Wouldn't be comfortable speculating about slowdown on that basis. cf also @osinthk among the best sources. https://3g.dxy.cn/newh5/view/pneumonia

Interesting link in that tweet, all in Chinese so must use translator add-on.

At the very bottom appear to be quite detailed sit-reps.

Quote:The number of people in serious/critical condition in Hubei province alone has risen to 988, up from 899 yesterday. It's also the largest number of new fatalities in 1 day since the outbreak began.

Quote:Airlines All Over The World Are Suspending Flights To China. The coronavirus outbreak is continuing to spread across the globe. While organizations try to figure out how to best counter the virus, airlines are increasingly suspending flights to China.

The only deaths they're counting are the ones which have priorly been verified as coronavirus infection...

Huge backlog of infection verification, likely shortage of test kits means that people aren't being diagnosed officially, and therefore when they die, they're not being recorded as having died from the coronavirus.

In short, these numbers are based upon cases that were verified most likely a week ago or longer.

Some of the most money hungry corps in the world are mothballing their China branches.
Quote:The World Health Organisation’s emergency committee will convene on Thursday to reconsider its decision not to declare a global public health emergency over the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus after “deeply concerning” new cases emerged, agency officials announced Wednesday.

Yup, just like I said...

2 or 3 days and they will be forced to admit a global emergency.
