We'll know for sure if the epidemic pops up in Ukraine.Quote:

How does the economy of the world change if China is shutdown for next 3 months?

A long term risk is, imo, how does it affect travel and tourism since the service economy and transportation have been two of the main drivers of employment growth.
Well, the stock market freaked out about it today. And it's been quite steady to up through all this Trump chaos and trade wars.
Or possibly the whole thing.Quote:

Drive around and buy up all the masks

^^^wtf????
So I was told today that it is called a novel virus, meaning it can easily mutate so rapidly that we cannot contain it. So without these extreme precautions we could have another 1918 flu pandemic that wipes out 50-100 million. Maybe one of our resident docs can confirm that. So saying this is just media fear mongering is kinda right but it’s prolly a good idea to keep this shit in check asap.
My layman’s understating was the word novel just meant new.
The H5N1 is the bird flu from many years back, just made a re-appearance.
Bad times.
They also have the Pig Plague or whatever the fuck it is over there, killing all the pigs. They got some shit going on.
We all do. Ripples through the world for sure. I’d like to know what Bezos has to say about it. How many billions of goods has he already placed orders for? Are they going to ship or no? Clearly the humanitarian part is more devastating and I wish everyone the best in nipping it as fast as possible. If I lived over there I’d probably wear a bra in my face if I didn’t have anything else too. Ok just kidding, I’d wear a ripped up shirt...
I hear they may be ordering everyone to kill off their pets now.

What are the nurses saying?
Maybe posted already but

What about all the packages that left China a couple days ago on their way to your house?Quote:

A few hours I heard. But it wasn't a nurse so ...?
Yeah I called that one a few days ago. Ships are the perfect incubator. They don’t know the duration the virus lives on inanimate objects yet. Predicting a couple days to several weeks. More concerned about the people on the ship unpacking the things. Versus the things in the containers.Quote:

But isn’t it ironic that the chartered airplane of evacuees were put in quarantine on a us military base, all the while commercial airline traffic kept pouring into our normal airports?
Was the quarantine just theatre. Why worry about 200 while thousands pour in.
We can only hope.Quote:

I'm not surprised since they've used the whole damn book as an instruction manual.Quote:

The wet markets with abundant variety of wildlife meat are a result of aspirational wealth. Before globalization there wasn’t capital for demand. Let’s hope new generations turn it around.
“A campaign on Weibo, the social media platform, drew 45 million views with the hashtag “#rejectgamemeat.” The government has once again issued a ban on wildlife trade, and leading scientists and many Chinese people are calling for that ban to be made permanent.”
Serving animal parts in neatly wrapped plastic is palatable for us but not really the norm globally.
Too bad for the sharks, and elephants that the virus did not begin with them.
That country disgusts me.
