Few post on FB got me mad.
1) HKongers says the gov't should have shut down and bar flights from Wuhan from beginning. There's not one country doing so, what makes you think HK as a city has the right to go beyond Center of Disease to pull that kind of rank and power.
2) Go on strike at hospitals cause these Mainlanders are getting people sick in HK.
My mom is ER in HK for 15 years, and OR for another 10, my dad is doing chemo right now so I have the utmost respect to health care. No OT and at times risking their lives.
They can't pick and choose based on color and race to rescue / heal. What makes you think we can do so in China.
Who is to say my department is more at risk so I'm going to strike, whereas if your mom and dad got into a car accident, can't go on strike.
As to Skinny's comment, being at ground zero or even close to it is hard to imagine.
11 million people in Wuhan (that's entire BC + Alberta population together), 1300 confirmed cases globally. Let's assume its 130,000 are current affected, that's the entire population of maple ridge, or Coquitlam. Maybe if Richmond was ground zero, I can see Richmond being a gong show, how will it really affected Abbotsford, Hope, Whistler, kamloops would be interesting if that ever happened.
