Videos of Chinese hospitals crammed with patients - Shocking footage shows hospital in China flooded with hundreds of patients amid deadly coronavirus outbreak as leading expert warns the situation 'is already uncontrollable' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7921709/Shocking-footage-shows-hospital-China-flooded-hundreds-patients-amid-coronavirus-outbreak.html Daily Mail is crazier that WWHH. Dr Guan Yi, whose team was among the first to identify the SARS virus 17 years ago, shared the concerns.
He confessed to Chinese media that the situation in Wuhan - where the virus originated - 'is already uncontrollable'. He feared that the new virus could lead to an outbreak at least 10 times worse than the SARS pandemic, which killed 775 people and infected more than 8,000 worldwide. 'I have experienced so much and never felt scared. Most [viruses] are controllable, but this time I am scared,' Dr Guan told Chinese outlet Caixin. The expert, who was in Wuhan this week, claimed he had to 'escape' from the city yesterday after noticing the 'jaw-droppingly' lack of preventative measures enforced by the local authorities. |

Patients In Alameda County Being Tested For Deadly New Coronavirus
OAKLAND (CBS SF) A number of patients in Alameda County are being tested to see whether they have contracted the Wuhan coronavirus, according to health officials.
A spokeswoman for the Alameda County Health Department stressed Thursday that there is no confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus that has led to epidemic fears and quarantines in China, as well as increased screening at San Francisco International and other airports. Spokeswoman Neetu Balram said "under 10 people" were tested for the virus and an undisclosed number have come back as negative. The patients had either been in Wuhan and showed flu-like symptoms or they had been in close contact with someone who had the virus. The patients samples have been shipped to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta and the for the remaining patients were expected back in a couple of days, said Balram.

China coronavirus: Wuhan medical staff being infected at much faster pace than reported as national death toll hits 25
•Fifteen cases of the coronavirus have been officially reported among medical staff in the city, but doctors say the true number is far higher •One says that ‘even now we don’t have enough protective gear’ but hospital workers have ‘no option’ but to carry on. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/3047441/wuhan-medical-staff-being-infected-virus-much-faster-pace?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=Social&utm_content=article Probably not wise to read much into the 'official' death toll. |

With flu + Wuhan coronavirus spooling at the same time and the public in a panic, I wonder how many of the people at hospitals have (or at least had) just the flu but with the public near panic levels they decide to go to the ER. Flipside is I wonder how many people died at home that they haven't discovered yet? |

Quoted: I suspect we will have a pretty good idea of what we are in for in a couple of days, the exponential growth will probably be very telling one way or the other. It's not going to help much in evaluating the virulence and propagation of the virus without real numbers. There have been too many reports of inadequate, untimely tests in China and deaths that may have been ignored in the 'official' numbers. It may be some time before we really understand whether it's a big nothing or a potential threat given the inherent stonewalling of information out of China. The one thing that is most concerning is the unprecedented actions to seal off such large population centers. Actions often speak louder than words. |

I'm seriously hoping we don't see a spread here. I'm the only hazardous-environment guy in my unit, and that means I'll get stuck with having to work with the coroner's office if it goes south.

Just remember all our STEM schools have been flooded with Chinese for decades.
If we were smart, and the WHO/CDC SJW's weren't calling the shots, the planet would slam travel shut until it burns itself out. But with Democrats and UN and EU nimrods everywhere, they'll keep travel wide open, because anything else would be racist or some other irrelevant reason. This may not be the planet cleanser, but it's just a matter of time. |

Just another reason why I've been saying for years now that we must put an end to this bullshit Student Visa program.
These shithole dwelling Chinese nationals come over and steel our tech, get taught by our schools, and ultimately bring over their shithole viruses with them. This just shows how open we are in regards to China. |

Enough people die from an illness, they'll believe and follow anybody that has "the cure". The only problem the theory (big problem, bad theory) is that the majority of the infected are already living in communism. |
