EXACTLY!!!
If ‘traffic’ from a certain area tends to be a generally higher risk, you block it!
I once worked for a company that had some manufacturing plants in China. We had remote users traveling to various hotels over there, vendors, the plants themselves, and various other traffic. It was a nightmare for awhile. At every place I’ve worked, all traffic from China, Russia, and a few others are blocked as just a ‘ground level’ precaution.
When you have to allow traffic from China it gets crazy. We of course tried allowing specific IPs, blocking everything else, but that created a lot of headaches. I eventually formulated a solution just before our helpdesk guys (understandably)committed mass murder/suicide. My apologies for straying off topic. Replying to your post reminded me of it all. lol

Reminds me of the disappearances of opponents in Latin American countries. USSR/Russia, too.
Remember that book of photographs where the Soviets would erase people from photos as if they were never there. No photo image, no......person.

Will he be quarantined for 21 days or 42?/s
I believe:
Duncan wasn’t the first in the US with it.
Pham’s bf has it or symptoms.
It is in China.
It is in Michigan.
It is in Queens Hospital in Hawaii.
I simply provided some information that apparently had not been reported previously, and provided a link to the source so that anyone could check it out and decide on their own what credibility to assign the info. And I specifically stated it was via twitter, and a caution to not spread rumors.
I didn't post it in breaking news or anything - My intended message was simply: this is all the additional info I can find, and it's not much, so keep watching for additional info.
There are plenty of more egregious examples of what you might consider rumor mongering, so I suggest you go share your omnipotence disdain with them.
It didn’t look like the same source, if it had, I wouldn’t have posted it. I am not a MR.
I agree, but so far nothing except twitter stuff from various sources.
mr= I was referring top the title of the source not you sorry for the misunderstanding

No Duncan was not the first here in US, they flew back 3 or 4, or are you talking about others.
I had heard something about Hawaii a couple weeks ago...but thot it was false alarm.
Do you have any sourcing for this information?
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Phim Pham sauce with the ausen fay....
Thanks for the ping!
