Looks like it's exploding in Iran.
They have little in the form of health infrastructure as do many countries in the region, we should be mobilizing resources in anticipation of this kind of thing and sending aid, vaccines too when we get them. The poor will be especially vulnerable both to to infection and poor outcomes, it will be a tragedy and add misery to already hard lives. I used to work with folks from philippines and they have a large immigrant community here in Canada.South Korea is seeing a daily doubling rate for the last few days. That's still only 540 cases but it's not a pretty picture. It will probably spread badly in the Philippines.
You may be right.It may not have been engineered but I still think it was a leak from the Wuhan lab, they were collecting bat viruses and the market supposedly was not selling any bats.
There are many people being monitored (volunteer quarantines) all through the country. State and medical officials are on a gag order from the CDC to not disclose any information. The cruise ship and in recent days South Korea, Italy and Iran just show how high the Rnaught of this thing is. Get ready people this is coming to a county near you.Holy shit, 325 people in Michigan being monitored but not quarantined. There was only like 3 people a few weeks ago.
Hundreds in Michigan being monitored due to coronavirus

I moved the wife and kids out of Bangkok up to the farm with her mom and uncle last month. I don't trust the Thai government. 35 cases in Thailand just don't add up, same with Indonesia... Call me crazy but I have been preparing for this since January 17th. Sucks being stuck in the states so far away... the wife's Visa/US citizenship is almost complete.... such a long process but totally worth it. But this virus is going to screw everything up. Fucking WHO with their heads up China's ass could've prevented the spread of this.
It may be organic, but it just knocked the stuffing out of the stock market and could trigger a recession in an already weak economy, unemployment means no more healthcare for many in America and their families as a pandemic approaches. Donald Trump is running the show and will deal with any financial crises, think he'll fuck it up bigly? He did bankrupt a casino and I believe he is the only person ever to manage his way to such a feat of incompetence. Also a pandemic would see healthcare premiums skyrocket as would the costs to the providers with mass hospitalizations etc.
