    1. I’m not sure if I wanna click on just any link… but I’m so ####ing curious… someone with nothing to lose please check that out😂

  1. This spread needs to be contained. If I was exposed I’d hope I’d have the courage to separate myself until danger passes.

    1. The Us in every State in and out of the trailer parks. Your kind of trash and people like us with money. Just look at the hospitals in the US gearing up for this. This virus will be wide spread in the US

    1. Genevieve incubation period was meet. If any of them tested positive, they were separated, quarantined and treated. Those not positive were still kept separate for their sake. They aren’t like…goofing off or anything.

    2. Genevieve there’s no cure for virus but the symptoms can be managed. All cruises come stocked like Rite Aid Pharmacy as a standard.

    1. @K J Haha. I am indeed a dummy.
      I hadn’t read about the 3rd cruise ship. I had been referring the the one docked in HK.

    2. @Carl A Colonists brought disease to the New World in shops too.
      Apollo astronauts were quarantine after their return. Is that relevant history?
      I’m not sure what point you are making. These cruise ships aren’t visiting new lands. They are being quarantined in place to prevent spread.

    1. It would be much easier if they are zombies but the most difficult enemy in Walking dead series are not zombies but humans vs humans.

    1. That’s just stupid and irrational thinking. People have died from contaminated food. So are you never going to purchase food again?

    2. @Austin Martín Hernández I’m still going to eat for sure! But I will no longer be getting food from food bars (like in the supermarket). Too many people have touched the serving utensils and coughing, sneezing, breathing over the food. I once saw a man taste-testing the food on the bar with his hands. I’m just a cautious person I guess.

    1. @Lucky Charm where? We got what? A chance for more people to become ill? Those ignorant selfish people that couldn’t ruff it eating slabs of chocolate cake – and ramen noodles on a cruise ship- should have been made to stay there for no less than 24 days. Much respect to the people that stayed on the ship actually thinking of others. Gheesh

    2. Contrary Marge MARGE You do realise that coronavirus is a family of viruses, SARS and MERS are also coronavirus’s.

    1. Do people in Alaska get the flu? If nobody does then you are safe. But I bet people get the flu there and pretty soon a whole lot of people are gonna have coved19 in Alaska also.

    1. EMS workers in full on haz mat ppe’s are still coming down with this. The CAUSTIC CONVOY buses need to be cleaned with a blow torch

    1. My cuz flew through Seoul Airport to Vietnam on Christmas Day. She was home on time but it was very close that all this broke.

    1. they are hosing down everything under the sun- over there with zero sucesss. I dont get why they think they can disinfect the Caustic CONVOY’S buses and Jets – after hours of travel it even seeps through hazz matt gear.

  2. Want redemption and a way out of this nightmare. Vote Bloomberg and watch him crush Impeached Trump with just one thumb. He can do it.

    1. @Jake Roberts
      Yes, thank you. Bloomberg gets under Impeached Trump’s skin, like no other. Bloomberg, a true self made Billionaire with no 8 Bankruptcies and American banks still do business with him, unlike Trump. 😂 Wait untill all the Deutsche Bank stuff comes out. Bloombergs $68 Billion to Impeached Trump’s fake 3 Billion which is hiked up Real Estate values. 😂Wait for Trump’s Taxes, it’s gonna be good. #ThankYouSDNY

    2. @Sabine Around the World Yeah, l think the taxes will be the next attack on Trump, another peachmint, but Unfortunatly for the dems, another nothingburger, all of our presidents ducks are in a row, the script has already been written for this movie. But they will try and try, another fruitless peach. Bloomberg thinking about Hillary showed the desperation

  3. Now we are going to get a bunch of traumatized people who are going to start developing symptoms after the fact, and out of fear of quarantine not seek medical attention. Just a matter of time.

    1. Mugdorna I follow vast Daniel Amen who is an expert in brain function. He’s got a clinic named Amen Clinic in USA. Look that up. Trauma informed care is another topic to explore. I am
      Not an expert, just a student.

  4. There’s a great old movie called “Outbreak” with Dustin Hoffman. One of the key themes in the movie is that the faster a virus acts the easier it is to contain.
    This virus takes weeks to show itself in the host. I predict we’re going to see many more cases throughout the world because governments are clearing people who were in high risk areas too quickly.

    1. hugh jorgan Anyone who’s played Plague Inc. already knows that you have to keep the pathogen unnoticed as long as possible to get it to spread efficiently.
