Neither BNO News tracker or Johns Hopkins show any deaths outside mainland China.

Not sure about BNO but the Johns Hopkins tool only updates once or twice a day. It hasn’t been updated since 11am est today, but I expect it to get another in about a half an hour. I think it’s only updating with the official Chinese reports.

Ahh time to unwind after a stressful week of work with some video games, take my mind off of the likely out of control coronavirus...

There’s the thread title right there.


How long until people in the west start taking this seriously? I’m afraid that they won’t worry about it until there’s a dead American or two.

South Korea now has 433 confirmed cases and 2 deaths only three days after a cluster was discovered in Daegu. I feel like this is the first really accurate and timely information we’ve gotten about how COVID works in a general population.* SK has a free(ish) press and a good health care system so we’ll likely continue to see quick reporting on the outbreak. Unfortunately it appears COVID can spread to a lot of people relatively quickly, and it causes 1 in 5 to need hospitalization. If I’m correct, we’re in for a rough one.

* (as opposed to a weird circumstance like a cruise ship).

Edit: clarity

I love how trump comes out once a week and instead of calling on all Americans to give the middle finger to the ground in a show of solidarity against bats and also here’s the mypillow guy to give me a rose garden rimmer, he’s in the slump between his diabetic fugue state and his artisanal Florida shake-meth high so he comes off as serious. Everyone’s like ‘ohhh he’s changed his tone’

No, goldfishbrain, he’s coding after his 14th morning shamrock shake and he’s too bored to make something up before he gets his Hiesenburg.
