Does anyone know if this is localized to China only?
I have a friend in Cambodia right now. They are staying at some very swanky resorts but I don't think this is just slummies that are affected.

Don't you think this is a bit of an overreaction?

Similar to "swine flu"
This one should be the "shrimp flu". It started in a batch of shrimp at a seafood market.

It is known this strain can be transmitted through direct contact.
So no I dont think it is.

Dammit. You beat me to it.
Shrimp Flu is the only name that should be considered.

Stopping flights or freaking out is gross overreaction. Thats my only point

We also don't know how transparent China is being with the information. This is a huge travel time in China, so there is some incentive for the govt and state media to downplay something like this.
