I'd argue that when the media isn't freaking out about something that would get attention and make them a lot of money, and instead focus on non issues is when you should worry.

That's basically what I said.

Except for the "sweating and glancing to the side", by which I mean he has armed government soldiers making sure he says only what he's allowed to say or they're "shut down" the studio with full auto-fire.
 
It's the premise to Contagion, but in China instead of Hong Kong. Alright then.

Well, I was only kidding.
 
Up to 8 cities locked down now.

Medical staff infected by virus faster than claimed as China death toll climbs

Then I misunderstood your post, at least from my perspective it sounded like you were describing business as usual with the media reporting on stupid shit. The media loves reporting and fear mongering on potential happenings whether it be a snow storm coming, or a peaceful protest that has a non-zero chance of turning violent. With that in mind I expect the news to be freaking out about this breakout hoping to get those sweet ratings, but with how fast this as escalated old media might just be slow on catching up.
 
I'm really interested in how this is going to affect international travel. Will the UN say that we all have to accept "coronavirus refugees" or will governments turn China into a No-Fly-Zone? Will there be any attempt to slow the spread of the disease by Chinese travellers, or will everyone just keep letting Air China drop off plague rats into their country.

I also wonder just how much repair was done to the biological hazard systems after they were pretty much dismantled after the Cold War.

I doubt this is going to turn into Contagion or The Stand, but it will be interesting to see the preventative measures taken by various nations.
 
This may not be so bad right now but if it mutates into something worse by next year by combining with an influenza virus we're hosed. That's why these raw bat eating subhumans need to stay where they are.

The virus migrates to a guy who has had a bit too much gutter-oil and evolves into super aids... its only a matter of time.
 
Apparently biochemistry students at Texas A&M University in College Station (where the 2nd US coronavirus case happened) were just offered a study abroad opportunity in Wuhan. The timing couldn't be better.

The fact that most of China is on SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING mode already is just oddly laughable. It seems like this thing is going worse, but not worse on global, (yet, I hope) but on China; as in most of the infected are Chinese.
Going a few pages back, some poster said that China people believe spreading them make them less sick. Now imagine doing that on your own kin. NOW imagine doing that on your family, which China believes on. Talk about making your own grave and lying on it.

I hope this makes security borders tighter from global after this.
 
SCMP is reporting 25 dead now. They've also quarantined 76(!) people who had "close contact" with some 80 year old dude who traveled north.

Pour one out for our homies :semperfidelis:

Honestly this just reminds me of the H1N1 aka Swine Flu pandemic of 2009. Mass hysteria over that too. Fighting over Tamiflu. I was just talking to someone I know who HAD it and had totally forgotten the whole thing until I reminded him.
