Do you have any context? Where's this vid from? Does the man suffer from the coronavirus or did his just fall on his face? When was the vid made?

Apparently, some Chink dissident currently in Australia posted it. Presumably, it's Wuhan, yeah. I cannot confirm if it's true or not but seems legit.

China has extended the quarantine to 5 cities.

One of the cities they shut down is 200 miles away, so

Everything in Red

They apparently have canceled Lunar New Year celebrations in Beijing

Again, China seems to know something we don't. They're either freaking the fuck out over nothing or we're so so fucked.

In a perfect world china would get economic sanctions for being incompetent at managing this situation if it does go south. won't happen though due to how much companies need china to make profits from imports and exports.
 
Looking at the WHO website (why read news reports when you can get an idea of what the WHO is thinking), they were recovening the committee to decide if this should be treated as an international emergency, today. Which was decided yesterday.
There are two situation reports, one from Tuesday and one from yesterday. So no firm answers for the moment, but I will be keeping an eye on what they are saying.

There are a good number of videos of shit like this now. Most of them were in hospitals but collapsing out in the open like that is pretty scary. China is a much more connected country today than it was during SARS and this shit is getting around super fast. There could be a pretty bad panic because of this, I've already seen videos of fights in grocery stores.

Also who wants to bet that we'll break 10 quarantined cities before the weekend? And by city I mean places with a pop in the several million.
 
I gotta tell you...I'm well versed in the science of viruses and have a very good understanding of them versus the average guy, but some of the news coming out of China is giving me the creeps.

I'll hold back at the moment, but yikes...this is coming across as a game changer virus at the moment. And a tip fo the hat to the people on Kiwifarms digging up some interesting stuff on the ground there.
 
Hospitals are standing room only in the quarantine zone

People are falling down in the mass of people



Compilation video. Says there are lots of people falling down unconscious in the streets of Wuhan, Emergency rooms, etc. Calls for the government to speed up admission and diagnosis.

I don't think we will, not officially. Double digits are an oh shit number, psychologically -- and China would rather let their people die than lose face. What we'll see is unofficial lockdowns of the various mass transits in China, and unofficial blockades keeping people from leaving infected areas.

On on hand this screams REALLY fucking bad due to the ccp going from everything is fine to putting multiple massive metropolitan areas under quarantine in less than 24hrs

but if theirs any country that has the means and lack giving a fuck about the ramfications of using extreme measures to subdue/eradicate the situation it is China

the rapid level escalation is definatly concerning tho
 
Not going to lie: pretty happy I live rurally in an isolated island nation with the potential to be nearly self-sufficient in an emergency. If there's a case reported here, I'm wearing a mask when I go out in public.
 
You know, I can't say it enough. For chinese, there are surly not educated on basic hygiene, i mean, I expected better lol. The way that they slaughter on these markets and (not) clean the area is just so effing backwards. You expect it from savages...heck even they know you shouldn't be this unclean. It's probably because so many chinese are from the "lost generation" or whatever it is called and that means they are superstitious and uber backwards.

They should do another great leap. For hygiene.
