For all of us bugchasers, bat rear end is a delicacy.

Ruggan posted:if someone with like an actual degree or whatever could chime in that would be cool though Phd in wildlife disease ecology. Killing and removing bats in Africa increased prevalence of a deadly virus (Marburg virus, I think) in the remaining bats. Best to leave bats alone and educate people to cover their food and to how to safely remove bats in their homes. There's increasing evidence that intact biodiversity keeps viruses in wildlife reservoirs more in check.

The testing numbers / deaths being linear may be due to hospital beds, and testing limits.

Marlow posted:There’s the thread title right there. The US has already instituted complete access denial to any foreign national who "poses a risk" of carrying coronavirus, which basically means anyone flying out of or through China. There is also a mandatory 2 week quarantine period for any US citizen returning from the Hubei province, retroactively applied to anyone who came back up to 2 weeks ago. Anyone who's deemed at risk of being infected or who is confirmed infected is being quarantined and monitored That seems like a pretty serious set of responses to me, like it's not "quarantine all of Boston" like some people want but I don't think that would necessarily be helpful

The interesting thing is that the number of cases in Hubei is still going up, but the rate of infection in the rest of China appears to have plateaued and is actually going down. 611 yesterday and 557 today. Suggests China's response has worked as far as containing the spread goes, but the epicenter is still seeing big increases.
