Re: Coronavirus
Just heard from the hospital I used to work at in northern CA, they have just admitted their first positive corona virus pt. Pt not in isolation unit but up on the floors. Seems a little cavalier to me.

That’s opposite with how we overreacted with HIV patients. Nobody wanted to take care of those patients for fear of contracting the disease.

That's exactly how the staff feels! Management is calling the shots. I told her to get the union involved or at least alerted.

Re: Coronavirus
Apprehensions of illegal Chinese immigrants averages about 5 daily. Corona virus hasn’t been detected yet.

“Trump says there’s nothing to be worried about. He put Pence in charge of combating the corona virus.
In the meantime he’ll be at the golf course if anyone needs him.”
I just wanted to add that Pence is adding Kudlow and Mnuchin to his task force.

Switzerland just canceled the international auto show which is held annually in March in Geneva. I grew up in Geneva, for me this is huge.

The stock markets are getting the crap kicked out of them. I suspect tourism (including this area) will decline as people will be scared to fly.

Pt was from a cruise ship and was admitted through the ER. Now there are 2 US Marshalls stationed outside the pt's door.

Re: Coronavirus
First US death has occurred in Washington state. We are now starting to have community spread. Ina few months we can more adequately judge how it compares with the flu.

Re: Coronavirus
I guess my only additional comment is why are governments locking down cities ? In Italy, several towns in the northern part of the country are locked down. No one can leave, there are police check point. This is not done when the flu is around !

Re: Coronavirus
Just follow the money. No country wants to be labeled like China is right now. China is losing billions of dollars in trade at the moment.
Re: Coronavirus
I wonder how many people died from the flu or Dengue fever this year...but this is not news...seriously take more precautions, no hugging or shaking hands and follow good hygiene habits...safer than having to sit next to a "Service Anxiety Animal" on your next flight!!!

That's what Trump said. This, from the BBC news:
"Local health officials confirmed on Saturday that the man in his 50s died in Washington state's King County. They said he had not travelled to any high-risk areas."

Re: Coronavirus
So far 6 passengers have died out of 700+ who got infected with the virus on the Princess cruise liner. Although this is less than 1% mortality rate we will not know the final results until a few weeks from now. I’m sure most of these were healthy persons.

Re: Coronavirus
West coast IS going to get COVID clusters - flight staff, nonstops from LAX, SFO & SEA, PDX, of course YVR. The Korean Air attendant in LA probably exposed 1200 people minimum, 4 trips while asymptomatic.. Unless airlines are using Lysol type disinfectant each leg, dunno. If I had to get on a plane tomorrow, I'd be under a essential oil saturated shawl.. probably eucalyptus or orange oil =anti-viral..
People should stock up on their meds tho ~ could be shortages due to China supply chain issues, CDC is analyzing this now for number of drugs, not saying which ones.
And lastly, if a person ingests lots of high fructose corn syrup (aka Coca Cola, sodas) your immune system is compromised by definition, as it changes the gut lining. Immunity comes from the gut, so yeah, tequila is better than Coke, bump up probiotics & spiralina. UV from sun kills viruses, too.

Re: Coronavirus
The airline my daughter works for (Air Canada) has allowed flight attendants to opt out of the YVR to HK flights if they choose to. When I flew that route a week ago the plane was half empty but still a full flight crew.
Re: Coronavirus
So the US surgeon general is saying that the masks are ineffective and to stop purchasing them as it depletes the supplies available for medical professional who need them to take care of patient who tested corona positive. I think its time for a cold Corona.
