Are they quarantining Beijing to try to keep it in or keep it out? I note you say nothing about international transport.

Another open mouthed doctor... it is said that the doctor says the media doesnt dare reporting the true number of cases. 3 hospitals in Huangang filled with infected.

Edit... the main of those three hospitals alone has 1100 normal beds... during conventional running.
Havent found the other two yet. But combined for Huanggang alone it could be as much 2000-2.500 infected

I am picking that if the Airline staff start going down with it. That might be a slow up in international travel. It must only be a matter of time.

I definitely think it's time to isolate China for a while. Shut down all non-essential travel. Give the rest of us time to try to get a handle on the situation, and let China deal with itself.
We can airdrop aid to them.

Welp, I ran the whole scenario twice and it seems that we don’t have much of a chance left. 👇

I have been saying for days that if we are seeing death tolls and fallout in China, this means the reality of the severity is probably 10x what we are being shown. Communist China's government would never let on how serious it actually could be. We are really in the dark.
Like the Soviets when Chernobyl went kaput. It took months for them to even acknowledge there was a problem, and they only did at that point because they face end of the world level catastrophe from the fallout.
A lot of people do not seem to be taking this very seriously but it is pretty terrifying the potential death toll that could ensue. I have seen estimates as high as 60-100 million dead.

Anybody know what the actual mortality rate is yet, or is it too early on to have a good number. We see a number of 1400 infected, 39 have survived and are doing well, and 46 or so deaths.
I have heard anywhere from .8% to 4% mortality, but the numbers still do not make sense to me. I mean only 39 that have survived and doing well, with still 1400 in the unknown camp. Just looking at those numbers, are we looking at a much higher mortality rate, or is it just too early to tell?
