The Dr screaming video was translated by a reddit user last night. Can’t remember the subreddit but it was a wuhan specific thread. He said the dr was screaming at his supervisor because the doctors are working nonstop and they don’t have what they need. He asked what they were doing. Said something like, “I don’t care. I’ll quit.” Best I can recall.

If there are really 63 suspected cases in the US then we are fricked.





Are there riots in the streets? Infected meandering around? If you walk outside, what do you see? Can you send us pictures?

Well there aren’t 63 suspected cases. There are 63 people who were in close enough contact to a person with the virus that they are being monitored. That’s a big difference.

Hang in there. We will be praying for you and your family.

All we have heard is 63 potential cases in the US. Only 2 confirmed.

There is a Twitter link where a hospital worker or doctor is supposedly claiming the number of infected is 90k. Nobody knows if it is legitimate. (Guessing you won't be able to get this link)
Twitter Link to Hospital Worker in Wuhan

Edit: Technically its 63 people the CDC is monitoring. No idea on the number of cases.

Wrap them in a big plastic bag and airdrop them back over China.

from the comments

quote:

in mandarin She said in China around 90,000 people (infected or dead???) and if one infected person is not treated properly with the right medical care it can spread from one person to 14 others (1:14 ratio). She urged everyone to not go out and stay home. It is out of control

Every single person should be quarantined coming from china. Many ARE fellow americans. We need to look out for their safety as well as their families safety in mind

Is anyone really shocked by the 90k number with the number of people in that country and areas that have been exposed?

It's 2020. They can't cover up anything.

Not at all. Shutting down cities, blocking roads with piles of dirt and setting up a temp hospital seems like the thing you do when 90k are infected. Not the 600 hundred they are trying to pass off to the media.

Not shocked by the number but shocked by the difference in the reported number if true.

Well I guess that makes me feel a little better. Yes your right no twitter here either.

I still get push notifications for twitter, Facebook, etc but when I click it to open the app it wont load. Wonder why that is.

No riots. Everything is pretty quiet on the street here but honestly I havent left the house in 2 days.

Anyone who was skeptical of the motives behind the Hong Kong protests should take a long look at mainland China's handling of this situation. China's government is rotten to its core with corruption, blatant dishonesty, and a lack of respect for other people's humanity. It's a horrible shame, too, because I have a strong affection for many mainland Chinese citizens trapped in their bizarro world authoritarian government.

I posted this earlier but I am most anxious to hear what comes out of countries not named China when they start treating the infected.
