Watwheels Supersonic January 28, 2020 Share January 28, 2020 Actually I'm thinking those Chinese ppl in Wuhan or other parts of China who consume exotic meats regularly, they might have some strain of the virus lying dormant in their bodies. And when this stronger virus comes along it will like trigger or mutate whatever is staying in the host body. If the mammals where the exotic meats come from can readily get infected by the virus nothing is going to stop infecting us humans. Even more so for those who consume the exotic meat on a regular basis. They should have ban the exotic meats when they so called investigated back during the sars. But they didnt. Nobody suggested it. I wonder why. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Singapore Acquittances in China think that it will offend China, especially Singapore and China got special relationship. Currently, all cases are imported. Travel restriction will greatly reduce local infection. That will reduce the strain on local medical resources.

I dont THINK it will as long as its phrased and done correctly but the only way to know is to actually do it and see how china reacts. I could be wrong.. I am famous for "famous last words". So to make such a decision would need a leader with balls. Because if he is wrong and the country suffers his career and name is gone. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbon82 Moderator January 28, 2020 Author Share January 28, 2020 Wuhan virus: Death toll jumps to 106, nearly 1,300 new cases as Chinese citizens urged to reconsider overseas travel WUHAN (AFP, REUTERS, BLOOMBERG) - The death toll from a coronavirus outbreak in China has soared to 106 while nearly 1,300 new cases have been confirmed, authorities said on Tuesday (Jan 28). The health commission in central Hubei province, the epicentre of the epidemic, said 24 more people had died from the virus and 1,291 more people were infected, raising the total number of confirmed cases to more than 4,000 nationwide. China’s National Immigration Administration encouraged citizens to reconsider the timing of overseas travel to reduce cross-border movement to help contain the new coronavirus, it said in a statement published on its official WeChat account on Tuesday. China’s Ministry of Education has announced that the 2020 spring semester for schools will be postponed due to the novel coronavirus outbreak, Xinhua reported. The ministry did not give the exact opening dates of the new semester for colleges and universities but indicated that the decisions should be made depending on their localities, according to a circular released by the ministry late Monday. The ministry suggested that colleges and universities under the central government’s other ministries or departments also postpone school semester accordingly. The new semester opening dates for universities and colleges under local authorities’ administration, middle and primary schools, as well as kindergartens, should be decided by local education authorities. Meanwhile, the director-general of the World Health Organisation is visiting Beijing to assess China’s response to the deadly coronavirus. Mr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus's trip follows a visit on Monday by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang to Wuhan. Global efforts to curb the spread of the disease have intensified. Companies including Honda Motor Co. are evacuating workers from areas of China hardest hit by the outbreak. The US said citizens should reconsider travel to China, while Hong Kong announced the temporary closing of all sports and cultural facilities starting Wednesday. Official statistics as at 28 Jan 9:49am. In China (including Hong Kong, Macau & Taiwan)[/u] - Confirmed: 4,520 cases (2,714 in Hubei) - Suspected: 5,794 cases - Death: 106 cases - Recovered: 61 cases Other countries - Confirmed: 45 cases - Suspected: 201 cases - Death: 0 case - Recovered: 3 cases 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chongster 6th Gear January 28, 2020 Share January 28, 2020 China themselves are taking such drastic measures why should they be offended? i think what would be offensive is if we start evicting the Chinese or Wuhanians or Hubei people who are already here. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are never the first movers. They always adopt the wait and see attitude, see what other countries are doing. They won't be the first to implement anything, because they fear of consequences that they don't know how to react. its a typical singaporean mindset. Herd mentality. you just watch. they are waiting for more countries to ban chinese. Then they will join in quietly. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
