HK Total = 1038. New = zero. And Happy Buddha’s Birthday!
Last day of the month and last day I’ll post one of these tables. Hong Kong has been zero cases for nearly a week. And I read somewhere that this virus seems to have about 70 day cycle no matter the extent of lockdown. China was first. Then Hong Kong. Next the world…
China-Australia argue over coronavirus investigation. Sweden also calls for probe.
Canada hides facts in same way they criticise China for doing at the start of the outbreak
"BC health officials have tried to keep secret the Covid-19 prevalence in municipalities...” [More]Coronavirus lurks in lungs after recovery.
CNA: California to close all beaches and parks. Which is most certainly not “following the science”. The science tells us that there are virtually no vectors for the virus in outside activities. Especially like going to the beach or park. Where you are safer than being indoors. So what’s with Gov Gavin Newsome?
WHO head Tedros is doing the rounds saying the WHO gave plenty of notice to take the coronavirus seriously. And that may be true. What is also true is that at the time (late January) when US and others began restricting travel, the WHO was urging against doing that. Either they were right then and everyone is wrong now. Or — more likely — they were wrong then. In which case it’s rather rich for Tedros to proclaim the WHO is nothing but right. It’s not. The other case is in face masks, where they said earlier they’re not needed and now recommend them. Not to mention the human-to-human misinformation debacle…
OT: Alex Lo: says ‘HK opposition will rue the day they asked Washington for help.’ I’d say more like we average Hongkongers will rue the day. Because the opposition don’t care if Hong Kong fails. They say “ you burn with us”. They wish for the destruction of HK so they can say “there, you see how bad the communist party is”. Not reading their minds. That’s what they say!
