my guess is that this disease is pretty widely spreading already but most people don't have severe symptoms, apparently under 0.5% of infected middle aged people have died and even fewer younger people so it's basically just another way for pneumonia to hit older people. seems pretty possible it will just become a disease we see every year

Long term, I expect this to be far more disruptive for any country that isn’t China.

Can't wait for the fallout of all these modern remakes of the "let's kill all the sparrows that eat our seeds" Chinese smart brains politics. Like im 100 percent sure there's gonna be a lot of really dumb things coming out over the next years.

stephenthinkpad posted:They are talking about banning wild animal food market permanently. Sometimes all it takes to affect change is a small fissure. Maybe banning wild animal sales will contribute to the decline of TCM too as younger generations cling less and less to insane "cultural" behaviors, if you can tolerate using the word "culture" for things like eating dead bats and snorting powdered tiger dicks.

Do not travel, bitches: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/china-travel-advisory.html Lots of lost face here, as this basically says that China is on the same level of safety as the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa.

IT BURNS posted:Do not travel, bitches: The travel tips in some of the Level 4 country advisories are A+ reading. The first one in the North Korea one is "make sure you have drafted a will". One of the ones in the Central African Republic one is "designate a family member in advance to be a contact person for the media, NGOs and members of Congress in the event you are taken hostage". Also "leave a DNA sample with your doctor in case it's, um, needed later on."

I mean, I wouldn't be against eating bats. As long as they were cooked safely. Seems like is about as dangerous eating any mammal within an evolutionary stone toss of ourselves. Just wait when Japan gets their dolphin/whale flu. Bugs are still my cyberpunk dystopian food of choice though.

This fear mongering about "impure" foods or whatever is silly; unless you're talking about one of those ultra poisonous pufferfish in Japan or something. The problem is unsafe preparation and hunting sickly animals. And China is not known for their food safety standard especially in one of the "markets" it supposedly came from.

So the issue probably isn't secretly high transmission, it's probably just the difficulty of finding literally every person that an infected person has had close contact with.

I could be wrong (and I probably am), but I think the problem with eating bats is that they tend to carry a lot of nasty poo poo that can jump the barrier to humans more easily that nasty poo poo other animals carry. That said, I'm not going to deny that there's a fair amount of racism when it comes to what people eat and who's considered "dirty" for it.

Bats are basically the text book example of a virus reservoir so yeah, eating them wildcaught is not a great idea.
