I'm extremely interested in seeing what the stats will look like from an outbreak in a place with more transparent tracking. Apparently this virus mostly spares children.Should Canada stop all flights and arrivals from China and surrounding areas? I’m not sure but my thoughts are it can’t be stopped but can we slow the spread and hopefully get a vaccine. Most of what I’ve read says travel bans are ineffective but it seems logical that containment is a good thing. The Carnival Cruise lines out of Florida have banned Canadian resident passengers holding Chinese passports even if they have not traveled to China in 6 months, seems that is based on race not risk?
That's fucking terrifying. The Lancet published an r0 of 3.8 and a geometric doubling every 6.4 days. Los Alamos is one of the most advanced research centers in the world. I would trust their reseach but they can't possibly be tracking actual spread stats. It must be a model. Only the People's Republic of China has actual spread stats and they're turning down international help just to keep their weapon a secret.
Or ManitobaThe level of stupidity in building a level 4 virus lab in the middle of a city with 11,000,000 people is astounding, belongs in the Gobi desert.
Easily spotted from space. Easily destroyed.The level of stupidity in building a level 4 virus lab in the middle of a city with 11,000,000 people is astounding, belongs in the Gobi desert.
Don’t give Trump any ideals, that would probably not turn out well .Easily spotted from space. Easily destroyed.
Basically yes. That's what many governments are doing. Even the Philippines is doing that and Do Dirty is Pooh's boy. He is basically a member of the CCP for all intents and purposes and even he has banned PRC travelers. Taiwanese authorities have gone as far as to suggest the entire world quarantine mainland China off.Should Canada stop all flights and arrivals from China and surrounding areas?

The couple in Ontario are still testing positive for the virus after now being healthy for two weeks with no longer being symptomatic.Stats reported by the People's Republic of China on the novel coronavirus:
71,323 Confirmed cases
11,298 Critical condition
10,890 Confirmed recovered
1,770 fatalities
Note that test kits are on short supply and diagnostic criteria is stringent. Many fatalities are not included if other conditions underly, even when coronavirus is confirmed present. Therefore most epidemiologists dispute World Health Organization stats curated by the Communist Party of China. Models suggest an outbreak up to ten times greater. The outbreak in China won't peak until April and it is unknown if any other outbreak will spread as fast or faster. The quarantined cruise ship seems to be a tragic but interesting case.
