Alright, to play devils advocate here...2000 deaths in China and a handful elsewhere. Would this be on the radar as anything but a bad flu season if we didn't have the ability to test for it now? How many times has something like this come and gone barely noticed because it looked like the flu? I'm not saying it won't get a lot worse, maybe it will-I hope not. But maybe this is something we've faced many times and we only now can identify it.

Watch the movie “Outbreak” with Dustin Hoffman. That is what we are facing here.

Yea but if we hadn't identified it, it would probably be many multiple times worse.And then when probably wouldve noticed it. Unlike all those things we dont notice

We are at 2,400 deaths currently in China, and it’s possible its higher than that. There was a panic about SARS almost 20 years ago, and this has shown to be much worse than SARS on the number of cases and total mortality. The info available today is much greater, so maybe that stokes some of the fear.

That’s a crazy long incubation for something that is potentially fatal

Article in question
quote:
Authorities discovered Friday that a 70-year-old man in Hubei was confirmed as infected after 27 days in isolation, while a man in Jiangxi province tested positive after 14 days of centralized quarantine and five days of isolation at home. On Thursday, authorities reported that a man in Hubei had tested positive for coronavirus after what appeared to be a 38-day incubation period with no symptoms.
Why does everyone seemingly question everything China puts out EXCEPT the worst case information?

Italy's got multiple areas on lockdown. Criminal offense to enter or exit the areas.

This thread is nothing more than a spin-off of the “Q” thread. False information, fake hysteria, and nothing but fear mongering

Is it true that most of our medicine that we would use to combat this virus is located in China. I thought I read earlier that it was close too 80%. China is run by a bunch of Commies that don't won't the world to know how dire the situation is. What happened to the videos and stories escaping there? Does anyone have anything new? There is a reason for that. Censorship. Why do people believe people who lie? So I admit that I, like everyone else, is just going by things that we have seen posted and videos from people who actually are on the ground there.The Silence is deafening.

This thread has everything from infowars bros who are basically saying the deep state leaked the virus from a lab to eliminate half the world's population to people saying there's nothing to worry about. Then you have people merely sharing news updates as they happen and discussing/posting models. Some people more panicked than others. Some cautiously optimistic.
There's actually a lot of good information + links in here.
