    1. The human-to-human transmission cannot be as unlikely as people say it is if this is what’s happening. What, was the flight attendant hugging and kissing the infected? Were they sitting right next to them for extended periods of time?

      If not, that’s pretty contagious.

      The flight attendant might not have this virus and is being tested still. Hopefully it’s just an abundance of caution and a simple cold. We shall see soon I suppose

      this doesn’t seem to gel with what’s going on right now. the speed of transmission seems faster. what is going on right now? time for a run to the supermarket for hand sanitizer and loo paper or too soon?

      >According to the RIVM, the time between a hantavirus infection and the first symptoms showing can range from a few days to up to 60 days. On average, it takes two to four weeks for symptoms to start showing.

    8. I miss when all the experts would come into Reddit threads and tell us what’s what with the science.

      Now all the same old quips get upvoted. If this were a real worrisome event (this isn’t), where would you turn to for solid info?

    9. So glad we have a capable president to deal with a possible worldwide pandemic again.

      What can the smart people do to protect themselves from this? Wear red hats? Inject bleach? I’m all out of ideas.

      I fucking knew it. It’s the first thing I thought of when I heard they were evacuating people from the ship.

      How are we still this stupid? Who is making these decisions?
