Cruise ship docked in Japan has a coronavirus outbreak https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-51381594
3700 aboard, 300 tested so far, of those, 31 results are in, with 10 confirmed to have the virus https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51379088
Ppl are ill with the flu in wuhan but aren't getting tested for the virus, and hospitals won't admit them, due to lack of space, and the fact they aren't confirmed for corona

This whole thing is like a movie with the trains, and ships spreading the virus around. Just minus the whole zombie thing.

It could be 10X higher, so 120K infected, 20K dead. More likely it's 20X higher, so 250K infected, 40K dead.
We may never know unless the government falls and real info gets out.

It must be extremely high for govts to ban flights, shutdown factories, and rescue their citizens from hubei
They're probably not saying anything to prevent mass panic

Showing a rental suite to a 3 people who flew in from Taiwan yesterday. How much PPE should I wear? Hahaha
Besides my insensitive comment, that speculation on real China numbers seems much more realistic in my eyes. Super scary though. All these cruise ship occurrences coming out now are equally as scary. Those things are cesspools.

Who would have thought limiting the testing kits availability and flat out shooting people and starving them would lead to deaths due to causes other than coronavirus? LOLZ
