Coronavirus Now in Thailand !!

[747man]

There’s been a sharp spike in new cases of coronavirus, principally in the central Chinese province of Hebei. There are now 60,373 world cases, 59,805 in China. 1,369 people have died and over 6,000 recovered.

242 new deaths were recorded yesterday, the deadliest day since the start of the outbreak. So what’s behind the big rise? It’s not actually a spike in the disease, but it reflects a change in the way statistics are collected and reported. Hubei health officials are now using a broader definition to diagnose people – which accounts for the vast majority of new cases. Until yesterday, the number of people diagnosed was stabilising.

Heathrow Airport was gripped by coronavirus fears this morning with eight planes thought to have been put on lockdown due to passengers on board complaining of symptoms of the deadly virus.

Travellers on the United Airlines Flight 901 from San Francisco were told by the captain to stay in their seats after landing because someone might have the killer infection, called SARS-CoV-2.

Andy West, from Henley-on-Thames, told MailOnline passengers were warned they could be on the tarmac for a while because 'seven other planes' also had suspected cases.

He revealed staff on the flight took the passenger to the back of the plane without wearing any protective gear or face masks and waited for health officials to come. They were eventually allowed to disembark half-an-hour later.

The lockdowns at Heathrow today raise the prospect that flights landing in the UK from every corner of the world could experience similar delays for months, until the outbreak dies down.

London has been on red alert for more cases after the capital suffered its first confirmed patient on Wednesday. Almost 65,000 patients around the world have now caught the virus and nearly 1,400 have died.

Other developments in the coronavirus outbreak today include:

China reported another spike in deaths and cases yesterday with 121 succumbing to the virus and 5,090 people catching it
The family of eight-month-old James Adlam, from Worthing, West Sussex, will find out today if the toddler has coronavirus
As many as eight planes were grounded on the runway at Heathrow after passengers were suspected of having the illness

Like I said before, this virus could get very serious. China is having a very tough time right now with it and it is slowly spreading around the world. Thailand is now number 3 behind China and Singapore with the amount of cases. I do hope I am wrong about this but time will tell.

Yes, you'd have to give up your Sunday roast lamb Alan. Never mind, you might get to enjoy som tam on Sundays with Mrs.747.

Thailand is number 4, behind China, Singapore, and Japan.

They officially count Hong Kong into China's totals.

Vietnam has 16 confirmed cases

I read North Korea is a big concern. This Coronavirus would be devastating in North Korea. It will need international help. Trump's young mate might even be at risk as the tubby dictator isn't a great advertisement for good health.

Don't think the Little Man would care about his people and ask for help.

If Laos were infected it's not likely you would see the news released. The Lao we know say that it's too far away from them to matter.
