that's why they found in China too. Mild at first then it goes into critical stage. I wonder if that's going to be the course for the other American cases as well.

BALTIMORE (FOX 5 DC) - The Maryland Health Department announced Tuesday a second state resident has met the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) criteria for the testing of coronavirus. Last week, the first person tested in the state received a negative result.
The health department did not mention where the resident lives within the state. There have been no confirmed cases of the virus in Maryland at this time.

On Monday, the death toll in mainland China from the virus rose to 425, with the total number of cases then standing at 20,438.
The new figures come after the country opened a new hospital built in 10 days, infused cash into tumbling financial markets and further restricted people's movement in hopes of containing the rapidly spreading virus and its escalating impact.

Or really mess with the censoring systems and go fully encrypted with weekly one time pads where you have to log in to get to any of it, and then all you get is the encrypted side, you have to be on a mailing list to get to the weekly generated OTP pads to get the decrypted text. Google's spiders couldn't log in to grab the encrypted part, and if someone there DID get a login, they would quickly give themselves away when they posted any of the decrypted text as everybody's text would be encrypted just for them and the snitch would show themselves quickly.
I'm working on making something similar for a different purpose...

Yes, great. Except... where are the HIV drugs made? Alldaychemist is already out of stock... wanna bet they're made in China?
Also... what if the "help" the US is offering means sending PPE and meds to China? Does that make any sense, at least until we know *for sure* that we won't see similar disastrous illness here? I thunk it's past time to put America first... first rule for first responders- insure your own protection and safety before trying to save others!

That is very impressive. I don't know if TB could work that way because of the varying levels of computer savvy of the members, but it sounds like perfect security for a members only bulletin board. If you do figure out a way to do it with few steps that anyone at any level can follow, you should sell it. You could be the next Bezos

Hyundai, Kia Factories Crippled In South Korea As Part Suppliers In China Remain Closed
www.zerohedge.com
1 min read
A globalized world is full of complex supply chains that wind in and out of countries. When one country goes offline, the chain breaks, and that's exactly what's happening in Asia.
Yonhap News reports that Hyundai Motor Co. and its sister Kia Motors Corp. suspended production lines in South Korea after it was hit with a parts shortage from China as the coronavirus outbreak continues to leave entire manufacturing hubs shut down.
Hyundai is expected to close four South Korean plants by Friday.
The plants are expected to reopen on Feb. 10 or 11, but that entirely depends if manufacturing plants, cities, and transportation networks open in China.
"If auto parts factories in China resume operations on Feb. 10 or 11, production losses from lack of parts will be limited," the spokesman said. However, if the factories in China where Hyundai sources parts from remain closed through early next week, then severe supply chain disruptions will be seen, causing production output to crater in South Korea.
Vice President Ha Eon-tae, head of Hyundai's main plant, emailed workers at Ulsan plants on Monday, specifying how production suspensions are imminent because part suppliers in China remain closed due to the virus.
According to the local union, Kia, which is 34% owned by Hyundai, has had output reduced in Hwaseong and Gwangju, outside of Seoul, for similar issues.
Hyundai and Kia, together, are the world's fifth-largest carmaker by sales. If production lines in South Korea are halted and extend past next week, then a slump in economic output could weigh down South Korean 1Q GDP figures.
The fallout from the virus could force investors to reprice growth across the world. This would undoubtedly weigh on risk asset prices that remain near all-time highs.

Given the overtaxed nature of emergency response, I'd wager a big fire is pretty likely at some point.
After watching again, it looks like a Molotov is thrown at 00:16.

Renowned Canadian scientist Frank Plummer dies in Kenya, where he led HIV breakthroughs
Social Sharing
Plummer, 67, was infectious disease specialist who achieved international influence

World-renowned scientist Dr. Frank Plummer of Winnipeg has died.
Plummer, 67, was in Kenya, where he was a keynote speaker at the annual meeting of the University of Nairobi's collaborative centre for research and training in HIV/AIDS/STIs.
Dr. Larry Gelmon, who helped set up that meeting, said Plummer collapsed and was taken to hospital in Nairobi, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
No confirmed cause of death has yet been released.
Plummer was born and raised in Winnipeg, where he headed up Canada's National Microbiology Laboratory for several years.
He was also involved in an innovative research partnership between the University of Manitoba and the University of Nairobi, established before the world was very aware of HIV/AIDS.
"He helped to identify a lot of the key factors that are involved in HIV transmission in the early days," said Dr. Keith Fowke, a professor in the medical microbiology and infectious diseases department at the University of Manitoba.
Before that partnership, scientists didn't know HIV could be passed on to women or to babies through breast milk.
"He developed a lot of interventions that helped save hundreds of thousands of lives across the world," Fowke added. "Frank was definitely a brilliant mind."
As a specialist in infectious diseases, Plummer's work influenced international public health policies.
"Frank dedicated decades of his time to Africa and led world-changing breakthroughs in HIV prevention," Matthew Gilmour, director general of the National Microbiology Lab, wrote in an internal email to staff of the Public Health Agency of Canada on Tuesday.
"Of course, the most noteworthy breakthrough that he and his team made was the finding of female sex-workers who were resistant to HIV. The gift these women have given science in the years since has been unparalleled.
"Frank had just had a joyful reunion with many of them a couple days before his passing."
Another colleague, Dr. Allan Ronald, said Plummer's death is tragic and a loss for science.
"He was so hopeful that he was on the path that would end with discovery of the HIV vaccine — the road he had started down almost 30 years ago," Ronald said.
University of Manitoba president and vice-chancellor Dr. David Barnard said Plummer had a great impact on global public health.
"He was admired and regarded highly by academics and researchers around the world, and his legacy of seeking to develop an HIV vaccine remains one of the landmarks of infectious disease prevention," Barnard said.
Dr. Theresa Tam, Canada's chief public health officer, took to Twitter to remember Plummer.
Plummer was most recently living in Toronto, where he underwent experimental brain surgery to fight alcohol addiction.
He was believed to be the first person in North America to undergo deep brain stimulation for that purpose.
"Frank was bigger than life. His physical presence and intelligence contradicted the fact that he was actually a fairly quiet and shy guy," Gilmour's memo says.
"Science will continue to build on his accomplishments and improve public health in the world for many years to come."
Plummer was in Kenya with his wife, Jo Kennelly, and his stepdaughter Imogen, and the family had just enjoyed time on safari, Gilmour's memo says.

Neither here nor there.
And they put this piece of dreck into the article so as to distract us from wondering if he died of alcoholism or from this virus that's making the rounds.
