BEIJING - Bundled up in winter clothes as they head home for the Lunar New Year holiday amid a health scare over a mystery new virus, Chinese travelers on the teeming concourse of Beijing West station were evenly split between the masked and the barefaced.
Going back to her hometown, 28-year-old Tan Jie has been ribbed at work about the danger of contracting the new coronavirus, but the blue surgical mask on her face shows she is taking the risk seriously. Liao Guang and her husband are looking forward to being reunited with their two-year-old child in Yichang, a city in the same province as Wuhan, and rushed to buy masks before traveling, as alarm spread on social media after the number of confirmed cases tripled over the weekend.
Symptoms include fever and difficulty in breathing, like many other respiratory diseases. While it is unclear whether masks provide effective protection, for people with no other information they are the most obvious precaution.“Today we’ve sold out all the single-use masks, and I need to prepare for tomorrow’s supply,” said a worker at a branch of Beike Drug Store. “Demand has surged ten times compared with before the disease broke out.

Not many of them is wearing masks🤦🏻♂️
CCP covered the outbreak maybe it has let the people out for LunarNewYear vacation
Yes, it’s extremely dangerous as all transports are crowded with people while most of them have poor personal hygiene !
The number of people already infected by the pneumonia-type virus emerging in 🇨🇳 is far greater than official figures suggest. WuhanPneumonia China_is_terrorist
All the government of the rest of the world need to take actions to avoid the virus get into their country, the real situation in China is far worse than CCP said, as they always hide the truth.
Pay attention to it, world, don’t let the SARS outbreak repeat again!
WuhanPneumonia seems to spread to Asia already; don't you believe CCP is capable to control the wide outbreak of the disease?
ccp all fake news
Karma
Wearing masks equals StandWithHongKong in China. People can't really buy masks out there.
But wearing mask will make people think you're a rioter from Hong Kong...
Hope that every country can pay attention to this chinese virus.
CCP are known to cover up bad news to stay in power. Experts already pointed out China has likely underreported bc it has spread to outside China. They did it in SARS & caused global outbreak. CCP is a dangerous regime that will not hesitate to harm the world to extend its reign
