Give it a couple of weeks and it will be a frequent headline. Sigh.

I saw (forget case #) a poster in Singapore with a prostitute’s pic, name, working area, etc, asking for any “boyfriends” or other contacts to get tested. No HIPAA there.

There have been deaths every day.

WHO has a daily situational report.

WHO: Of the 794 cases reported outside China, 26 were detected while apparently asymptomatic.

I think it is pretty much a fact that the virus can be spread without symptoms.

As for the “24 days”, I’m more suspicious of that claim until confirmed by cases outside of China.

came down with a fever two hours into the flight to Travis Air Force Base in Northern California and was placed into the isolated section of the plane.


So they put him behind a curtain? That part of the plane have a separate air supply?

RE: The Princess cruise line airlift. Of the infected people the most ill were flown to Nebraska, after landing at Travis.One in a biocontainment unit. Doesn't sound good.

Actually it was a metal box with its own air supply separate than the main plane for what I’ve read.

The other 20% are a bitch though.

20% “not mild” is a big number though.
