MARVELOUS MONDAY WOAD 02/10/20 CORONAVIRUS
RANDOM THOUGHTS:
This coronavirus is one bad bug. Already some 910 people have died and worldwide there are over 40.000 cases. It has proven to be even more deadly than the SARS pandemic of 2003. One cause for concern is the fact that millions of people across China are heading back to work following a Lunar New year that was extended by quarantine due to the so called Wuhan coronavirus. The U.S. has shipped containment suits to China after they ran low, also Chinese factorys have added extra shifts to make the garments and facemasks which th gavernment has advised citizens to ware to help stop the spread of the deadly virus. Passangers from two specially charterded flights carring U.S. citizens were quarantine at a U.S Airbase after they arrived so everone could be checked for the virus. At least one cruise ship the Diamond Princess has quarentined in Japan after 136 passangers tested positive for the virus. Japan has 162 documented cases. There are two other cruise under quarentine in The World Health Organization despatched a team of doctors and researchers to China Sunday to help with the outbreak. Almost 30.000 of the known cases have been reported in China’s Hubei province, Wuhan is it’s capital.
