JOHN NAISH: The coronavirus is a real life sci-fi nightmare
JOHN NAISH: Viruses that jump from animals to humans are called zoonoses and were the cause of the world's three biggest known pandemics - the Black Death, Spanish flu and HIV.

Do anyone feel that this outbreak may not have been an accident?
Same as the Flu and common cold.
No cure, it’s a virus. The only hope is they come up with a vaccine soon like the Flu shot.
If this shit hits the US hard, don’t be surprised if Trump expands the detentions to include Asians and we see a repeat of the Japanese Detsinment Camps Of WW2.
And the Zika Virus.
The threat of China's deadly coronavirus spreading to Australia is very real, experts warn.
As China continues to take extraordinary measures to contain the deadly coronavirus outbreak, “wet markets”—outdoor food markets selling both live and dead animals—have been labeled “ground zero” by authorities in regard to the viral epidemic.
The market facing the most scrutiny allegedly sells the meat of over 100 animals including exotic snakes, live rats, wolf puppies, live peacocks, porcupines, and even koalas, according to images circulating online.
On Wednesday, state authorities banned the trade of live animals at wet markets. The popular Huanan Seafood Market in the central city of Wuhan where the virus is believed to have begun was previously closed on January 1.
Dr. Gao Fu, the director of the Chinese agency charged with controlling and preventing diseases, confirmed that the virus—now known as the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)—likely came from “wild animals at the seafood market” but did not go into specifics. The first to suffer from the virus were reportedly the employees at the Wuhan market.
The vast outdoor marketplace is comprised of rows and rows of narrow lanes cluttered with shopkeepers, butchers, and consumers looking for the freshest cuts of uncooked meat. As Business Insider reports, people and animals—both alive and dead—are in constant contact at the market, making it far easier for the virus to spill over from animal hosts into the human population.

Relatively common animals include pigs, hares, chicken, shrimp, and dogs, but an incredible array of exotic cuts can be found including giant salamanders, crocodile tongue, and civets. Chinese consumption of civet meat was the cause of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak of 2003, according to AFP. The SARS virus, which originated with bats, was found across wildlife markets in China.
One menu advertising a Wuhan market vendor boasts:
“Freshly slaughtered, frozen and delivered to your door. Wild Game Animal Husbandry for the Masses.”
While Chinese authorities have outlawed the trafficking of numerous wild species—especially since the outbreak of SARS—conservationists claim that the regulations are too loose in general but especially for species that are farmed for commercial purposes.
Exotic species are famously seen as delicacies across China and other Asian countries largely due to the legendary and often unproven medicinal benefits of eating the wild creatures. The consumption of exotic and even live animals is also seen as a symbol of social status.
However, revelations of the live animal sales have even shocked many locals.
One user of Chinese social network Weibo wrote:
“Just took a closer look at the viral wild animal menu – they even eat koalas.”
While another user responded:
“There’s nothing Chinese people won’t eat.”
In a statement made on Wednesday, Dr. Christian Walzer, executive director of the U.S.-based Wildlife Conservation Society’s Health Program, said:
“Chinese scientists believe the Wuhan Coronavirus originated in wildlife sold illegally in a live animal market. This virus is closely related to SARS and it now appears the spill-over to humans followed a similar transmission path. China closed Wuhan markets where this new virus was tracked back to – but similar markets occur in other cities across China and other Asian countries.
If these markets persist, and human consumption of illegal and unregulated wildlife persists, then the public will continue to face heightened risks from emerging new viruses, potentially more lethal and the source of future pandemic spread.
Poorly regulated live animal markets, where wild animals, farmed-wildlife, and domestic animals are transported from across the regions and housed together to sell for human consumption provide ideal conditions for the emergence of new viruses that threaten human health, economic stability, and ecosystem health.”
Beijing is struggling to keep the coronavirus under control, imposing a quarantine on three cities after the virus killed 17 people and infected nearly 640.
Meanwhile, experts have warned it is “quite possible” that the deadly virus will spread to Australia.
“We do have a lot of traffic from China and I think it’s quite possible we will get some cases here but I’m very *confident that we’re well *prepared to respond if we do,” Australia’s Chief Medical Officer *Brendan Murphy said.
Just moments ago, health authorities in Australia confirmed that a person in Sydney is under quarantine after possibly contracting the deadly coronavirus.

What do you think?
this is crazy
Oh boy.. Evacuated u.s citizens and diplomats flew home today. I hope they were screened really fucking well.
We are in trouble
dude - now is the time for China to panic
in one week the number of those infected increased exponentially >x²
and chinese think that estimate is lower than the reality
if they didn't kill travel to the region they were looking at a rate of new infections accelerating much faster
i wonder if the people being evacuated are being quarantined for 14 days upon their arrival in their home countries.
I would hope so but the problem is according to reports 5 million people left before the issolation began so the shit could be already out the bag and being spread all over the world and the infected wouldnt even know for possibly 2 weeks.
Whatever the Chinese are currently saying about the situation it is 1000x worse. A highly contagious virus that can be spread during its 2 week incubation period and they know now only hundreds are infected? Dont forget that the epicenter for this shit is a major transportation hub and people were traveling heavily for Chinese New Year before they started locking shit down.
I was watching CNN this morning before the Kobe story hit.
It was reported that it takes about 3 days for symtoms to show up.
So if you catch it today on Sunday in China, go thru customs in China where they will check you. You will come clean.
Them get on a plane bound for the US crammed up with 300 other passengers enroute to LAX. You arrive in LAX and all them passengers get off at LAX or get on connecting flights thru out the USA.
By Wednesday you and all the others you were in contact with will start showing symptoms.
If this shit spreads like wildfire, you know will not hesitate to begin quarantine Asians the way the US did to Japanese in WW2.
And the majority of Americans will support it.....sealing Trumps victory in 2020.
