If true it is sounding more and more like an engineered virus-bacteria hybrid. These things don’t exist in nature that we know off since mankind has been on this earth. Oddly enough I have not heard of any children being infected or sadly death. Most cases are elderly and those with compromised immune systems. Maybe this is some biological weapon created by another entity and released in China or something self created as a false-flag attack.

If people think oh no but countries would not do this because of business and trade, think again we don’t know the agenda if there is one. Phew conspiracy theory hat off :p
Notice how the HK protestors aren't on the news anymore.
 
Absolutely unnecessary. We are keeping our offices in China closed for the time being.

But Mr. Cook just loooooves to exploit people and risk their lives.
So by extension any other business or concern that opens in China is exploiting people and risking their lives?

Apple has to open their stores safely, which they know more about there than we do here.
 
Like any type of flu virus, it’s only transmitted via air droplets from either coughing or sneezing and normally doesn’t survive outside the body for more than a few hours. You won’t get sick if you received a package from China in Dec. However, it’s still important to maintain good hygiene and disinfect surfaces as a precaution.
Oh good....i just need to wait 2 hours after the last person to touch any device i may be interested in looking at. Phew!

Just quit worrying. This is what our immune systems are for.
Good point Mr. Cock but not everyone has a perfect immune system like yourself.

According to the CDC FAQ, you are off by a bit.

9 Days on a surface, longer if the environment is cool, or humid. This is a virus, not a bacteria - So, consider a cruise ship's or aircraft ventilation system, or fabric seats. Add to this the fact that this is likely a weaponized strain - with a far higher fatality rate than China is letting on. The 36 yr old MD who alerted to world to this, died of this disease. Satellite images show unusally high levels of Sulfur dioxide, indicative that thousands of bodies are being cremated DAILY.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this is a weaponized strain and was released on purpose. It does seem awfully convenient that this outbreak happened while all the protests were going on. It completely shifted the focus of the nation and world to the virus.

If it is weaponized it is pretty weak and slow to replicate. The Spanish flu of 1918 is estimated to have infected 27% of the world population (500 million) and killed as many as 50 million. And strains of this flu (H1N1) still occur today. Also, animals used for food in where likely source of the virus that jump to humans.
 
I'm not sure if these re-openings are because the virus is getting under control or because the damage to the Chinese economy is now considered the greater threat.

Probably a combination of both. The situation looks like it’s getting more under control in Wuhan with decreasing new cases, which is where the bulk of the infections are.

You asked for a source and someone put one with more info, so i wont respond to that. as far as your tin foil hat, i can wear one too and say that i've also "heard" that the elites can and have been engineering these kinds of things for population control. so i honestly dont think your post is that far out of wack depending on who reads it :)

ok im taking my tin foil hat off now too :D
 
There are many children / babies with the virus. The youngest to be tested positive was a 30 hour old baby.

Source, please.

No effect on the pregnant at present, source, source 2, etc.

Your UK source is feared to have it, but not confirmed as COVID-19 has similar symptoms to the flu as it’s part of the same family. So rather than jump the gun it has not been confirmed and not even in China where there are more infants and children in the hot zone. Plus this baby has a compromised immune system. But hey it’s possible that it’s mutating.

That individual put no source other than saying a 30h new born had it. I looked for the claim and posted it was in UK even though the hot zone is China plus no reported infections of babies or children in China officially. I even provided sources that state that pregnant women are not at risk. Zika vírus is another issue and that is not the COVID-19 flu virus.

All viruses are not equal, plus that UK new born had a compromised immune system they don’t know if it’s the flu or COVID-19. This has been in the news since late Dec 2019 and where are the babies and children cases.

Sadly, it's not 'a type of flue'
