@46:10 US govt makes it clear, they really don't know, and for once they are taking strident steps.

Spain's first case of coronavirus is someone who had contact with one of the cases in Germany

On the "conspiracy" front, we have:

It has to be a conspiracy, no government actually experiments with biological weapons, right?

Coronavirus: China accused of 'burning bodies in secret'
Quote:

World health officials, back from a visit to Beijing, expressed great concern that a dangerous new virus was spreading between people outside of China, even as the number of illnesses continue to grow dramatically inside that Asian nation.
The new virus has now infected more people in China than were sickened during the 2002-2003 severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak. On Wednesday, the number of cases jumped to 5974, surpassing the 5327 people diagnosed with SARS.
The death toll, which stood at 132 on Wednesday, is lower than the 348 people who died in China from SARS.
Doubts have been raised about the official death toll, however, with claims Chinese authorities have been cremating bodies in secret.

Well, put it this way, I've a couple of months supply of beer in one of the garages

The two infected people were in York and Newcastle is the nearest facility with specialist quarantine facilities.

Unsurprisingly, both people are Chinese nationals.

Here from what I believe to be a very reputable source, is what we actually know about the virus.

The Lancet 2019-nCoV Resource Centre
https://www.thelancet.com/coronavirus

Clinical features of patients infected with 2019 novel coronavirus in Wuhan, China
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/l...183-5/fulltext



I know for some here China is the big bad world player the unstoppable juggernaut who so good at everything it does, that will outsmart the world and all who oppose it. But from what I heard from reports out of China and Mongolia. Its a dump with a dysfunctional government and infrastructure and that reality is coming to the surface and now being exposed.

Meanwhile Russia deployes military airlift and biological warfare specialists to evacuate Russian citizens from China.

This is something that has been a suspicion of mine for a while. And I think the Chinese government lives in fear of something like this outbreak. An event which they cannot control.

Speaking of fear

Were you aware that North Korea and Mongolia have closed their borders to China

Hong Kong is next

"Beijing, which insists it can contain the virus, began to show impatience over the growing ostracism, with the foreign ministry calling Washington's earlier advice against travel to China "unkind".
"Certainly it is not a gesture of goodwill," foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said.
