NYT {sorry} just came out

quote:

The authorities reported 15 new deaths in Wuhan, including a medical professional in his 60s.

RIGHT NOW

The State Department has ordered all American workers at the U.S. Consulate in Wuhan to evacuate. The city of Beijing has announced travel restrictions.

Seems strange to order evacuations. I would think that would risk bringing the illness back here.

Didn't say they return to the US. *I was wrong. Headed to the West Coast on a specially chartered flight with medical specialists on board just in case.

Am i the only one who feels like this is escalating quickly?

Like, if Winnie the Flu is out here making statements like this that cant be good, right?

Dry food, MRE, and cistern innawoods time!

kidding kidding. I really hope this is them going overboard to let everyone know China is still open for business. Because if certain people are right, and China is broke, and something like this causes just enough loss of business to ruin their ponzi scheme then this could be very very bad and the coronavirus will not be what people are worried about.

We need to find a cure and use it as leverage.

US genius scientists to the rescue!
This is one epidemic I’m in favor of using US resources to help bigly.

Yep. I almost pulled the trigger to sell off my stocks and holdings day before yesterday. I sensed some alarm and sure enough, the Dow dropped and I lost a tidy sum. May consider pulling it all out over the weekend and just put it into a highly safe investment, like arsenal and munitions.

Won’t this kill mostly the really young, really old, and people already in poor health?

Some of the responses in here are sickening, trrrible pun intended.

So far we’ve had someone say we should use a cure that would save people’s lives as “leverage” and another say we should allow it to kill homeless people in California.

Guys, we gotta call shite like that out. That’s stupid and it doesn’t represent this board. I’d go as far as to say it has no place here.
