Hello media, if you no longer allow customs inspection and quarantine to take Wuhan pneumonia seriously, then it is too late. I urge you to take the virus seriously.

Public transport is halted, petrol shops are closed. Most people can't get to hospitals so the official tally is bogus AF

Are these the correct numbers from China or are they covering up?

Outback began last month ? WTH ? I am disgusted ...we always deserve the truth.

Signs of killer virus to watch forThe rapid spread of the deadly coronavirus had put health authorities on alert and sparked a global panic. I wouldn’t say do at the moment, probably best to cancel school in the certain areas which infected. How about the killer flu that is already here?

Deadly virus spreads to Europe, USChina and the World Health Organisation are doing their best to prevent the spread of panic — as well as the deadly coronavirus — but first-hand accounts from ground zero suggest the crisis is much worse than previously thought. Why is Australia allowing thousands to come from the infected area? I read an article this morning that the real cases are way more than what their officals released. The s are in 10s of thousands. Fuck the mask

China builds 10-day hospital for virusChina is swiftly building a hospital dedicated to treating patients infected with a new virus that has killed 26 people, sickened hundreds and prompted unprecedented lockdowns of cities home to millions of people during the country’s most important holiday. Referring to it as a ‘hospital’ might be a stretch Building a hospital in ten days, now what could possibly go wrong. Maybe not a 'proper' hospital but a 'field hospital' That’s a worry. When china builds something in ten days.....could be more dangerous than the virus itself.

An authoritarian state, a lethal virus and a transport hub: what could go wrong?Could the virus have been contained, and its spread limited, if officials in Wuhan had levelled far sooner with both their bosses and the public? I don't come to the ABC for opinion pieces, I come here for facts. Please leave these paid arse rag pieces to the mainstream media. Sincerely, Your Consumers 🤨 'An authoritarian state' And yet the Morrison govt is mere weeks away from voting into law, a $10,000 cash transaction ban. This is simply the beginning of the slippery slope towards a cashless society, where banks will have you completely enslaved within a digital system.

China's President Xi says coronavirus situation 'grave'President Xi Jinping says China is facing a 'grave situation' as the death toll from the coronavirus outbreak jumped to 42. Jumped to 42? From 41 yesterday? I’m not trying to minimize this, but hey. Don’t cry wolf too often. This virus thing is a hoax. Its only medical profession, so called 'experts' who will make mega$$ from research and vaccines, who reckon it is a thing. Where is the empirical evidence, peer reviewed science, umm, err, reviews by travel agent lobby group paid consultants. 🤔🙄😏 Stop any Chinese airline coming to Australia.
