This is missing that one time I played Plague Inc. on my phone in 2017 and named the virus after my girlfriend's mum
cum infections? half of the forum is safe.

Honestly the fact that there have only been 82 deaths tells me that this must be a little bitch virus
because on paper, it's terrifying. It's like influenza on steroids. Incubation of up to 14 days where you are contagious without symptoms? We should all be dead.

CNY Holiday Extended Amid Coronavirus Outbreak
The Spring Festival holiday has been extended until February 2 due to an ongoing outbreak of the novel coronavirus in China.

Some people will be happy with a longer holiday.

Considering the reaction of China to this virus I have a sneaking suspicion that the numbers have been heavily skewed. I wouldn't be surprised if there were hundreds of thousands of infected already with thousands of dead. Has there ever been such a massive panic to a viral/bacterial outbreak before? I don't recall being it THIS bad with any of the previous ones like Mad Cow, Swine Flu, Bird Flu or Ebola outbreaks.

Maybe, but here's an unpopular opinion: China's the perfect country to deal with it. They don't have things like 'human rights" slowing them down. They'll do whatever it takes to contain and kill this thing. And if the situation get super worse, they won't hesitate to get as drastic as it takes.

First case confirmed in Germany, the coronavirus patient didn't travel to china.
"Health authorities say the man who contracted the virus is from the state of Bavaria. It is the first known instance outside of China of the disease transmitting between unrelated persons"
dw.com
"According to SPIEGEL information, the infected person is an employee of a convertible roof manufacturer from Stockdorf in Bavaria, which has several large branches in China and a large plant in the Wuhan region. According to initial investigations by the authorities, the employee was infected by a Chinese colleague who had spent a few days in Stockdorf from China on January 19. It is now necessary to check whether other colleagues have also been infected."

I don't think other countries would deal with this in a considerably different matter. Unless we are talking about executing infected people or carpet bombing cities.

That's kind of what I'm saying. They'll get as drastic as it takes to beat this thing, without a lot of the reservations Western countries would have.

Yes, and that infected dude is like 1 kilometer away from my flat in a Hospital.
Amazing news..

It's called the recency effect.
For starters, quarantining a whole 10million people region would never be done in other countries.

Well, if a massive Ebola outbreak took place in New York you think everybody would just sit on their hands?

The fact that 5 million people managed to leave Wuhan right before the lockdown scares me.
Doing nothing for 1 month before ... didn’t help ... it’s good that they now take action but the virus has already spread in that month over the globe ...
And if the world didn’t know a flu that someone had in any country could already be the new virus ... as people don’t get hospitalized or checked if you have the flu ...
Also our hygiene is other standard so people can react differently on this virus ...
Could very well sizzle out ... but also the opposite can happen... viruses are smart and can adjust..

Welp! This model is already outdated, number of infection is now 4500+, we’ll reach 6000 by tomorrow, 2-weeks ahead of that model

NYC as a whole would never be quarantined.
They demolished roads, this would never happen. In the US Maybe checkpoints would be installed, but a lockdown is not permissable.

Well they would obviously not demolish roads (maybe?) but there would be checkpoints on all roads, all traffic in and out of the city would be restricted heavily. Schools would be closed as well as all theaters and shopping centers. It would effectively be a quarantine. FEMA would have a field day regardless.

For sure. SARS shut down air travel for a while. Bird flu was all over the media in a "They gon get yo ass! Birds gonna fly to yo house!" kind of way.

I know you are being factious but viruses aren't smart and don't adjust. They randomly mutate. Sometimes they mutate to become worse, sometimes they mutate and fizzle out.

Oh, you're an expert, corovirus just shot itself In the foot? I lived in China for 15 years, obviously I "don't know enough about Chinese culture" even though I've done the full cycle of the 12 animal years and respective CNY. Maybe I'll dig through the BBC News website where they quoted me back in 2009 saying it's amazing how the cities become ghostowns during CNY?

Put Tony Hawk on the case, he will smash any half-pipe double quick!
And I knew it was all bull because nobody really did anything. A couple of farms got exterminated but it was all business as usual.
