apparently in thailand they have 8 cases so far (all tourists from Wuhan plus one Thai tourist to Wuhan) and so far five have fully recovered and three are still being treated, with no deaths that's obviously a very small sample size but it suggests that the virus might be less deadly when medical institutions only have to treat a small number of isolated cases at once, and more deadly when resources get taxed like in Wuhan where they're running out of beds which would be slightly encouraging for the rest of the world, but still just as bad news for China or anywhere that some, like, infected mcdonalds worker spreads it to a thousand people in one town before becoming symptomatic

Agean90 posted:Kinda seems wierd they wouldnt do that to begin with. I would think it would be easier to limit exposure to other people at a military base than a local airport Apparently that airport is one that's been specifically designated as the place to receive people being evacuated from overseas emergencies like this one, and is outfitted with specialized equipment and specially-trained staff and so on.

apparently all the people on that plane to California have so far passed four different screenings, two before leaving the airport and two more by the CDC in Alaska. I would expect they'll still be quarantined for two weeks since that seems to be becoming standard for at-risk people exiting China the WHO has done another press conference, says they're highly concerned about the cases of transmission outside of China and that's why they're reconvening to discuss declaring a global emergency, but also that many (most?) people who get the virus only have mild symptoms and they estimate the death rate at about 2% (compared to 10% for SARS)

pigz posted:I really don't think they are doing enough testing yet, to get a good idea of rates you need to start testing peopel who aren't very sick but may have come in contact with those that are. I.e you need to capture people who get midly sick and that's just not something that seems to be happening right now. maybe the place to look for for this is testing of people outside China, like in the UK they've tested over 100 people now and all come back negative, in Australia all negative except their one patient in hospital, supposedly all 200 people on that flight to the US tested negative in four different rounds of testing, these are all people who were in Wuhan and so may have been in contact or proximity with someone who was sick, even if it was only mildly sick or even asymptomatic, and so far signs are encouraging that they haven't found more cases, but we really have to wait another two weeks or so to make sure given the potentially long incubation period the Australian scientists who managed to recreate the virus also said they would be able to use that to make a more accurate test, so that's encouraging
