A frightening discovery at the coronavirus epicentre means the deadly contagion may be able to spread a lot more easily than first thought.

A man has begun developing coronavirus symptoms a whopping 27 days after coming into contact with an infected person, causing authorities to fear for the worst.

A 70-year-old man in China’s Hubei Province was infected with coronavirus but did not show symptoms until nearly four weeks later, the Chinese government revealed yesterday.

This could prove a devastating blow to the world if the virus’s incubation period is longer than the presumed 14 days.

Is this just a grubberment thought bubble....
Why, pray tell just Year 11 and 12.....what about Years 7 8 9 and 10.....
What about those travellers with blue eyes..maybe allow them in if they are taller than 6 feet.....
I read that the virus could remain dormant for up to 42 days...is our grubberment aware of this...…. :WTF

Over 1100 people died from the flu here last season before it had hardly begun. They rarely report it though. No idea what the final number was.

A staggering 50 people died in the Iranian city of Qom from the new coronavirus in the month of February, Iran's semiofficial ILNA news agency reported on Monday. The new death toll is significantly higher than the latest number of confirmed cases that Iranian officials had reported just a few hours earlier, which stood at just 12 deaths out of 47 cases, according to state TV.

The 50 deaths date back as far as Feb. 13, according to an Iranian official. Iran previously reported its cases and deaths from the virus on Feb. 19.

Authorities are struggling to contain and understand the outbreak in those countries, where infected cases have skyrocketed as they have increased over 2,000 percent in the past couple weeks.

Italy is considered the site of Europe's first major outbreak and the largest outside of Asia. The number of infected cases jumped to 152, compared to just three 10 days ago.

The virus is spreading fast in South Korea. My son leaves soon for South Korea. It's too late to get a mask before he leaves, but as soon as I know his address I'm sending him a mask and replacement filters. The military will give him the proper PPE, but just in case I'm sending him backup. He's planning on staying on base as much as possible.

He should be pretty safe. The Korean outbreak was caused by a single woman who got the virus in China on a visit and refused to be tested on her return. She belonged apparently to a doomsday Christian cult that believed in "provoking" the return of Christ. Seem she might get her wish. :roll

I wish your son luck with his deployment.
