With a 2-10 day incubation period a lot of people showing up with the virus now will have caught it before the lockdown. How well it's being controlled won't be clear for another few days at least.

First case of transmission in Europe to a person who has not been in China.

3 more people in Bavaria now tested positive. All three from the same company. What surprises me is that and how quickly people apparently get infected from people that do not even have symptons yet.
Interesting coincidence with Resident Evil movie. Here
The Danish minister of state had a response amounting to: "We have freedom of speech".
The tweet from the newspaper with the drawing got a lot of flak from the Chinese. However it was mainly really poor memes and what I think was Chinese sentences translated online to Danish.
This shit just makes me think if we had a zombie outbreak we'd all be fecked within about three minutes cause we're idiots and we don't take things seriously at all.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaay,zombies.
China coronavirus: Misinformation spreads online about origin and scale

The Wuhan nurse video is also discussed. The ones about dead bodies in hospitals are not even worth mentioning.

Travelling into work this morning, went through London Bridge and quite a few non-Asian people wearing facemasks. Odd to see.
Often see SE Asian people wearing facemasks in London, presumably for pollution based reasons, but quite a few white people with masks on this morning.

6000 confirmed cases, 132 deaths and 112 peoples cured.
Time to re-read S.King's "The Stand".
I read they've managed to replicate the virus in Australia so its not all bad.
Think they were saying the other day that to declare it an international concern there needed to be decent-sized outbreaks/enough to call it an epidemic in at least 2 countries. Thailand up to 14 cases now, Singapore on 10. Not sure if that's enough, but then I don't know how many makes an epidemic.
Thailand's health minister was saying they're going to have difficulty controlling the spread so that's probably a factor too, as well as what is now a large a number of cases overall.
The fact it can lie dormant for 14 days has been a key factor. The fear is that it can be spread covertly.
I live in the far north of Norway... So does my aunt.
She started talking to me today about this, on how it's going to kill millions of people and be the new black death. She has even gone to the step of buying tons of tinned food and locked herself up in her house far up in the woods.
Tried talking to her about how death-rate seems to be around 2.2-3.15% and that it's mostly people with other conditions dying. That they are already working on a vaccine and that despite it being fast at getting around that if it was nearly as bad as she talked about then Wuhan, a place you could fill 5.7 times into the region we live in has 11 million citizens, as opposed to our 50~ thousand would have had a shit-ton more incidents alone. That's before we consider that Chine has over 1 billion people. She refuses to see sense and is panicking. Can't calm her down with checking up stuff for her.
She even claimed WHO had said it was going to be the worst thing ever, just without saying it.
She isn't really healthy mentally, but it really saddens me to see. She's even scared of her man coming home from Thailand (he has spent some time there in his family's mansion, so not even out in the public) for decks sake.

Damn, China really fecked up here. Detained 8 doctors earlier in the month to try and stop them from spreading rumours about a new virus.
The new Russian Prime Minister ordered to close down the Russian/Chinese border on the Far East.
Shit's getting out of control.

M-O-O-N, that spells pandemic.
In York possibly.
It begins, we don't deserve redemption. Finish us mother nature! (Except me and a few and some chick called Eve).
Can someone have a word with China on behalf of the rest of the world. Seems like every patient zero is from there.
For obvious reasons. They’re a nation with atrocious personal hygiene standards and their food handling standards are probably the worst in the world. That they decide to eat anything that moves makes it all the worse.
Being over 1 billion people there is probably a big reason.
A big reason for what?
For "patient zero" often coming from China. You know, the thing you were talking about.
I was adding to your statement.
I just get Isolated System in my head whenever I open this thread. 
It's amazing there's any bats left in the place really.
Wilbur Ross done lost his senile mind, says Coronavirus might be good for America because jobs will be coming back.
What makes 0 sense is the fact that they didn't stop travel to and from China the instant the first incident came out. I mean how fecking stupid can you be?
Putin?
Christ, it's getting closer and I woke up yesterday feeling like shit as if a chest infection is coming on.
You're going to die.
Bet there's a fair few chinese people having fun with this, going round sneezing in public places.
Thanks, was nice knowing you I suppose.
