That is a problem with this new virus not having a short catchy name. If you google "coronavirus symptoms" you will likely get common symptoms for the general coronavirus family, not this specific novel virus which everyone is just referring to as "coronavirus" The WHO is recommending "2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease" which is definitely going to catch on any second https://twitter.com/WHO/status/1222945426606907393

Enfys posted:This coronavirus doesn't really have upper respiratory symptoms - it attacks the lungs. If you have cold symptoms like sinus infection/runny nose, etc you probably just have a boring old cold. So far I just have a slight fever and a cough  obviously I don't think I have it but it would be hilarious if the first largescale outbreak in America was caused by my incredibly stupid coworker.

Backweb posted:My friend in Hong Kong finally responded. She got herself all worked up and used the wrong word. Turns out she meant 90,000 infected, not dead. But yeah, even that source is unverified. Sorry about the wrong info. Tell your friend not to worry about it, because the actual number of infected is probably several times higher than that 90,000 figure she'd put out there.

pretty sure the only people who still go on cruises are all like 60+ so i guess we're gonna find out if china is covering up the mortality rate pretty soon on the plus side that would still probably not be as bad as that cruise where the ship almost tipped over and all the sewage leaked out and everyone was trapped in a boat full of piss and turds until they got rescued

Reminds of my father telling me he was at a business event when the news broke on 9/11 , and several people started getting calls from their stock broker telling them what they needed to do to make a profit out of it.

Mozi posted:the WHO makes recommendations and states are legally CNBC posted:Declaring an emergency doesn’t give the WHO extra funding or power, but it allows Tedros to make recommendations, including whether countries should impose travel or trade bans. It can also mobilize public health resources and galvanize public and political action, said Lawrence Gostin, a professor and faculty director of the O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law at Georgetown University.
