BREAKING: Authorities in Wuhan, the city at the center of the new coronavirus outbreak, are shutting down public transportation beginning on Thursday, according to China's state television network.

The travel suspension, meant to stem the spread of the disease, comes days before Chinese New Year, when millions are expected to be traveling.a"public health emergency of international concern" postponed that decision until at least Thursday, when the committee plans to reconvene.

Health Officials in hazmat suits wait at the gate to check body temperatures of passengers arriving from the city of Wuhan Wednesday, Jan. 22, 2020, at the airport in Beijing, China.

While the situation in China is fluid, Schaffner said he thinks it's somewhat unlikely that the WHO will declare it an emergency.

BobWoodruff You better stay in Asia don’t come back before all the virus gone! Sorry

BobWoodruff I dunno about you but if you read about the virus it clearly stated that the symptoms is slow to develop. It could take days before you have fever.

BobWoodruff Build that wall! Lol

BobWoodruff Nice try! Not biting.

BobWoodruff 17 people. It means the story is a setup! Nice try MSM.

BobWoodruff Wanna bet its way more than 17 and doctors had been ordered by the CCP to keep it quiet?

BobWoodruff Don't let your reporters spread this virus around the world.

BobWoodruff Gawd lawd! Why a surgical mask when you have a better mask to save your life?!?

BobWoodruff Art imitating life=Contagion, the 2011 movie. Playing out in real time. NovelCoronavirus

BobWoodruff Get that poor guy some 💊💉 😷 medication...or else this might be his last report 😞

maingoaal BobWoodruff no fucking thank you

BobWoodruff .realDonaldTrump This guy needs to be banned from returning for a while.

BobWoodruff The respirator he wears is just for warm, definitely not for virus prevention. Please wear N95 respirator and learn how to do self protection first.

BobWoodruff We're not sure that the mask your wearing is sufficient protection. We're not exactly sure the incubation period, of this strain of the virus. There are not enough labs that can identify this strain in a timely fashion. And you plunk your butt down in the middle of this?

BobWoodruff They aren’t locking the streets down people are able to leave in their cars as long as they have a temperature check. Way to contain the situation and virus! I’m sure they will fly out of another city with that same illness to spread it even more.

BobWoodruff I'm not blaming anyone but there's some big issues with their health & safety regulations in & around Asia. The last time I was in Hong Kong, I had multiple masks & latex gloves on the entire time. Wash hands & face with sterile wipes before putting on new masks & gloves.

BobWoodruff Idiot

BobWoodruff Dont come back here now. Wtf?

m_hostage BobWoodruff It should read,moron travels to infectious zone where a killer disease can be spread through a sneeze & skin to skin contact

BobWoodruff Pretty sure that isn’t an N95 respirator. People have no clue how masks work and when they stop working and that they can’t be reused.

BobWoodruff Keep them all there

BobWoodruff He need to be in minimum N95 mask! What is wrong with you ppl ! You reporters DO YOUR HOMEWORK on this virus . The case we have here in the states is being treated via a ROBOT ! They don't even want to risk getting near him suited up!

BobWoodruff

BobWoodruff Travelling there is so stupid. Wtf is wrong with people? ..

PROUDPATRIOT45 BobWoodruff Suspicious story; the whole thing. Let me guess, a sudden discover of a vaccine will appears and governments will buy billions worth. The 'intrepid' deepstate-taking-head with only a face-mask is a giveaway.

BobWoodruff Don’t you think with all your reporters you could have sent someone else?! This man has been through enough!

BobWoodruff DONT LET HIM RETURN bOBwOODRUFF News sent him to report on coronavirus and guess who will come back and infect us all?

BobWoodruff ABC: Watch this poor fuck risk his life for ratings !

Good thing someone patented the virus to make a vaccine when it broke out. I wonder who belongs to The Pirbright Institute? 🤔
