Yes, the Germans and Spanish are Caucasian, none of them severe sick. Also some of the people on the evacuation flight to France, not sure of the nationalities yet.

The newest situation report is in from the WHO.
First time I have seen this listed in any of the other 12 reports: "Due to the high demand for timely and trustworthy information about 2019-nCoV WHO technical risk communication and social media teams have been working closely to track and respond to myths and rumours.

Imo it’s to obvious blaming USA, personally wouldn’t put it past trump have to say!, but I’d be more inclined to think Russia, you see the same with hackers from other country’s masking ip address from another to misdirect where the attack came from, just my 2 cents though

Yes, you are very correct. My crazy Sunday sarcasm didn't quite come through.
I think Wuhan (probably many other Chinese mega cities) is like a giant petri dish where a virus was mutating lying in the shadows just waiting for the opportunity to strike.
I've heard a similar thought expressed that it's natures natual defence mechanism to control populations that have got too big.
The population becomes so large that it is in effect a great big test tube for viruses and other nasties to breed and mutate and experiment until they find the magic formula that culls the herd.
A bit like how myxomatosis struck when the rabbit population went crazy.
We're no different to rabbits, despite thinking we're special, we're just animals that need to stay in balance with everything else.
When people are eating bats and rats and insects and live mice, and digging cooking oil out of sewers to cook it in (well apart from the live mice and insects) then I think we'd have to conclude that we've probably expanded way beyond what mother nature considers acceptable.

Wuhan 747 plane headed for Learmonth airport, a Royal Australian Air Force base.
I assume will be Quarantined. Base location looks very isolated away from populations.
