44 Americans on cruise ship docked in Japan tested positive for coronavirus, U.S. health official says

BEIJING - Hundreds of U.S. citizens who have spent nearly two weeks exposed to the coronavirus and quarantined aboard the Diamond Princess cruise ship docked near Tokyo were evacuated Sunday evening and taken by bus to a nearby airport, where two chartered planes are scheduled to return them to the United States.

Forty-four Americans who were traveling on the Diamond Princess have been infected, Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, told The Washington Post on Sunday.

About 400 Americans were on the cruise ship when it docked in Japan, and the Japanese Defense Ministry said 300 of them disembarked Sunday night, the Associated Press reported. Once they land on U.S. soil, the passengers will be quarantined and monitored for an additional 14 days at military bases in Texas and California.

Yay corona virus is coming to Texas!

same is true in the "medical" arts/ science field. Why are you so freaked out about it. The regular flu is still taking more lives daily. We all die some time

Apparently you can't see the ramifications of a 1918 type event. But who's getting freaked out? I'm citing known facts and the prudent amongst us might look into precautions. FedEx gives me a nice discount on airline tickets. If the virus starts growing rapidly in the U.S. I'm taking my wife and stepdaughter to Argentina. Assuming they'll let us in. As big as India but with a small population. About the best place to be outside of the Sahara. Or in a sailboat on the ocean.

How would you like to be that flight crew? Everyone breathes the same air for a very long flight.

Wash your hands and don’t touch your face. This isn’t hard.

run and hide. chicken little

This thing might fizzle out. That the Chinese government has 60 million in lockdown suggests they think it won't soon. For folks who claim to believe in science you sure stick your heads in the sand. By the way, African Swine Fever, a virus that fortunately doesn't affect humans, has killed 250 million pigs in China and millions elsewhere. And is still spreading. Dozens of wild pigs in Poland have been found dead with it and recently by the German border. Germany is Europe's biggest exporter of pork. It's probably in the U.S. soon. USDA says it probably has made it to our ports but hasn't spread so far. The 250 million dead pigs in China? That started in August 2018.

Really, that's all it takes? Why all the masks over there? Why the hazmat suits worn by authorities?

Copy that, we should lock down the pigs.

I commend you sir on the fine exposition of your intellect.

They wear masks all the time, nothing new.

Not in these numbers.

By the way saw a few days ago that the masks aren't stopping the spread.

OK, I'll alert Washington. Everyone will be relieved. Thank the good Lord you are here for us!

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

so you admit "science" is correct about the virus yet continue to argue that climate change "science" is hog wash??

Climate change "science".
Lol.

 

[rocket man]

How many of you guys get a lot of foreign packages? I don't know if I want

to deliver them of them now. Can a virus spread to packages?

What you have to understand is @It will be fine is a lover of communist countries like China, so he will shoot down any reporting on the severity of the coronavirus. Nothing to worry about, it's all fake news to make China look bad.

SMH.
