News from Finland. A Chinese tourist on quarantine in lapland over corona suspicions

Edit: sauce

For non-fins
A Chinese tourist holidaying in Ivalo turned to the emergency room due to high fever. From there, he was transferred to Central Lapland Hospital for observation.
Lapland Central Hospital reports that the patient is isolated and samples will be sent to Helsinki tomorrow for examination. Iltalehti was the first to talk about it.

- It relates to precautionary practice. If you have been in the Wuhan area two weeks before and are suffering from high fever and respiratory symptoms, we will take precautionary measures to find out if you are suffering from a coronavirus, says infectious physician Markku Broas of Lapland Hospital District.

According to the doctor, the patient left for the journey five days ago. He has been symptomatic for two days and went to the emergency room in Ivalo today for high fever and respiratory symptoms.

- From there he was sent for follow-up evaluation to the Central Hospital of Lapland on duty in Rovaniemi. The patient is in isolation and will be sampled to Helsinki tomorrow morning, Broas says.

According to the infectious doctor, the patient is a youngish person.

- He will be isolated until answers come tomorrow.

The Sam Hyde "fact check":

Comedian Sam Hyde Not ‘Behind’ Spread of Coronavirus

Quick Take
A post on Facebook falsely claims comedian Sam Hyde is responsible for the spread of the new coronavirus. Researchers are still working to determine the source of this latest coronavirus, though evidence suggests it was first transmitted to humans from an animal.
 
Not sure if late, but Arizona has a case now


The contributions of Chinese students are immeasurable.

Some thot at ASU joked about it and got blocked by ASU President Michael Crow.

Important Info in Bold

OXFORD, Ohio —
Two students at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio are being tested for a possible infection of the coronavirus, school officials said Tuesday.

On Monday morning, one student at the university presented himself at Student Health Services with very mild symptoms, and with recent travel to China, met the criteria to be tested, school health officials said.


"Health providers quickly recognized that the presenting patient met the criteria for 2019-coronavirus testing, results should be back from the CDC in the coming days," a statement from the university reads.

The student, described only as a male, and his traveling companion are isolated in their off-campus residence while awaiting the test results. According to school officials, only one of these students showed potential symptoms, and the other is being tested as a precaution.

Miami and health care professionals are working with the Butler County Health District and the Ohio Department of Health and are following their recommendations and protocols.

As a precaution, the university has postponed its Tuesday night men's basketball game against Central Michigan and its Wednesday night women's basketball against Western Michigan.

Those games will be made up at a later date.

The novel coronavirus has sickened thousands and killed at least 100 people in China. The virus mainly sickens animals, but this specific coronavirus "jumped the species barrier" to infect people on a large scale, officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

Despite the coronavirus' impact in China, the CDC maintains that the risk to Americans is low.

Reported illnesses have ranged from infected people with little or no symptoms to death, officials with the CDC said.
Symptoms are similar to other respiratory illnesses. These viruses may cause mild to severe respiratory illnesses with symptoms of fever, cough and shortness of breath.

As of Tuesday morning, there were 1,771 new cases confirmed in China, raising the national total to 4,515, according to the National Health Commission. It said 976 people were in serious condition.

Infections have been confirmed in the United States, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Nepal, France, Germany, Canada, Australia and Sri Lanka.

The sharp rise in infections in recent days suggests there has been significant human-to-human spread of the virus, though it could also be explained by expanded monitoring efforts, said Malik Peiris, chair in virology at the University of Hong Kong.

Experts worry that the new virus may spread more easily than originally thought, or may have mutated into a form that does so. It is from the coronavirus family, which also can cause the common cold as well as more serious illnesses such as SARS.

WLWT will update this story as details develop.


Did you even read the article?

From what I read, most of the cases are people who are already sick. Also, the students are isolated from everyone else. So it's no likely that they infected everyone else.

Good on her for telling that fuckhead to pound sand. More people know the better.
 
About those Hospitals China is rushing to build...



Among the “China as usual” levels of disinformation, apparently even those construction pictures are fake. Enterprising Google Earth sleuths matched them to an apartment complex being built 600 miles away.

The link in the article "an apartment building more than 600 miles away" is to the website that manufactures the prefab homes, not a pic of a map or a verifiable address of how it's in a different location than the "hospital"
No images of google maps, nothing to show other than "these are prefab homes", which was already known.

I fail to see them proving the hospital wasn't built at all, only that they're using prefab homes.

I'm sure the Sun Devil is more than thrilled to spread the coronavirus to its followers, though, that sneaky devil.

People are saying it’s a lie because it’s the exact same photo which means the photo the CCP shared is not a photo taken of the building site in Wuhan.
