There IS a law. HIPPA. If someone talked to the media they would lose their license , get fined, fired, and sue—personally. Plus the facility would get screwed.

Sucks to be hospitalized.

The Bay Area is about 1/4 - 1/3 Asian, predominantly Chinese.

Actually, 19% Asian (1/5th). So less than that are Chinese, many of which are Americanized for generations and don't travel overseas.

This article reports new CA virus patient is at UC Davis med center (WaPost also reports that). Article says med center wanted CDC to test patient on check-in last Wednesday, but patient didn’t meet CDC criteria for testing so wasn’t tested until Sunday.

(try again)

“Just make sure your pantry is well stocked.”

I’m at the point of filling old suitcases with food...way overloaded!

Also, the longer China stays locked-down, the worse it gets for us...so I just keep building reserves, day by day.

Solano County. Home of Travis AFB, isn't that one of the quarantine locations?

“Officials with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed the nation’s first coronavirus case of unknown origin Wednesday in Northern California in the latest sign of the virus’ rapid spread. “

one new case of supposed unknown origin added to the existing 15 is “sign of the virus’ rapid spread”? really?

Norovirus always starts with a body juice (technical term), typically fecal, but could be vomit.. It can be on a countertop, but it went from someone’s butt, to their hand, to the countertop, to your hand, to your mouth.

There was a local report last week about a potential case in Shasta County. Perhaps that is it. I will do some sleuthing...

“NEW YORK (AP) — A new coronavirus case in California could be the first in the U.S. that has no known connection to travel abroad or another known case, a possible sign the virus is spreading in a U.S. community, health officials said.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported the case Wednesday. It is a person in California who had no known travel to a country where a virus outbreak has been taking place, or connection to a known patient.

California officials said the person is a resident of Solano County and is getting medical care in Sacramento County. They said they have begun the process of tracking down people who the patient has been in contact with, a process known as contact tracing.

Officials did not immediately release any other details.....”

Solano County... That includes Travis AFB where some of the Japan cruise ship patients are quarantined.

Yup, they know. This unknown origin stuff is BS.

Travis AFB is about 20 miles from UC Davis.

The Flu is transmitted the same way coronavirus is...take the same precautions and your chances should remain close to the same...we have 360,000,000 or so here and 15-6 have unknown sourcing for being afflicted with it...show me a way to do that with the Flu...

Oh Dear, that’s so 2010.

Driving through the places like Saratoga, Cupertino and especially Sunnyvale and Mountain View you won’t see much of anything BUT Asians of various flavors now. That includes South Asians, i.e. Indians.

You can’t import hundreds of thousands of H1Bs and their extended families and not have this happen.

The upper Peninsula is heavily Chinese and Filipino (Colma/Daly City/South SF) and similar for Fremont / Newark / Pleasonton / Dublin in the East Bay.

There is no significant inflow of white people from anywhere. The inflow of Mexicans is far higher, with a smattering of Central Americans.

Whites are already only a plural majority in a few places - mainly North Bay / Concord - and will soon be absolute minorities in most of Bay Area cities as their median age is far higher then the non-whites.

As far as Chinese people who are “Americanized”, that’s a relative term. Since virtually all of them came here after 1965, the “generations” you’re talking about are maybe two.

They still have extended families in China / HK / Taiwan that they visit all the time.

Nope. That 2010 number gonna be obliterated. Live here, seen that. Google/FB don’t hire no whiteys unless they pass the PC test or have PhD from name school. So ever since about 2014, the influx has been turbocharged. Who do you think is buying 3 bed 2 bath houses in Mountain View for $2 Mil?

Ain’t folks from Kentucky or even Sacramento.

Stand by my numbers. South of SF, the actual number is probably 40%. Only diluted by North / East bay (whites and blacks in Oakland/Lafayette/Danville/Concord).

That too will pass, and the people whose ancestors built the Bay Area will become an insignificant hated minority in the land that was once theirs.
