My coworker just got back from ten days in Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan. Am I paranoid to be worried?

Vietnam has reported 16 confirmed cases and states that 15 have recovered.

Vietnam, together with Indonesia and Cambodia, have been singled out by some researchers for having far fewer than expected cases based on the flight travel patterns out of China. In other words, they believe there is a large degree of under-reporting.

Especially questionable is zero cases for Indonesia.


Great. I guess he’ll be off the bus again.


Are you going to have your kid avoid all Asians for the rest of his life?

You do realize that NIH, CDC, FDA, and the State Department are all a part of "our government"? Right? They are doing their jobs and monitoring, reviewing etc.


Trump did not want the passengers to come home too soon.

Does anyone know of any place that still has masks in stock? I've tried so many places and they are sold out everywhere.

I think I am SOL

Of course not, but finding out they just got back from a possible hotspot is concerning. So you can give it a rest.

No and I’d avoid. Seriously. Your company should have had that person teleworking for 14 days.

Do you otherwise live like a hermit and never go to public places? You realize that this guy is not the only one that you'll encounter who has traveled recently.

Do the masks you use to do yard work during allergy season work? Or do they have to be of a special variety?

+1. A family member is vacationing in Thailand. Of course, a vacation in Italy might be a problem, too, at this point.

7 hospitals refuse to accept… Common (general) patient, ambulance wanders away

Last night, patient A, who was admitted to Qingdao Daenam Hospital, became seriously ill.

Mr. A stayed in an elderly ward called Hyosarang Silver Center, a regular patient who was not a patient of Corona 19.

Paramedics quickly found a place to transfer Mr. A.

But the hospital said that seven of the places do not receive the seed A, all of which rejected the Daegu Gyeongbuk JTBC been confirmed coverage results.

For example, "I can't take a patient who's not a corona patient," or "There's no room in the intensive care unit."

Eventually A died.

Mr. A received a negative judgment on the first corona examination, and the exact cause of death was not confirmed yet.

The lack of medical facilities with Corona 19 has also affected patients who are at risk of other diseases.
