Yah, but the hospitals & health care systems in China - in the affected areas, @ least - seem to be crumbling under the onslaught of patients who may or may not have Wuhan CV. If everyone panics, everything falls apart.
We won't have reliable case histories & statistical analysis until we have a sufficiently large numerical base of Wuhan CV patients to work with. That's why I expect Western countries will create a single large database for all Wuhan CV infected patients - in order to have a large enough patient sample to extract meaningful statistical information.
.
Exactly.

I can't even believe that people eat pigs feet, cows tongue , and liver. Ugh.. and that is here in America.
Tongue is great, I love it.
I only eat liver about once a year, so usually at a restaurant.
I have eaten silk worms and sea slugs in China, many times. I don't care for them but when one is at a banquet one should be as gracious as possible and eat the delicacies when the host spent so much money on your behalf.
But COME ON!!!!
When you treat animals this sadistic way in China, cramming them all in cages one on top of others, piling them up dead and alive fighting for their last breath in agony, all kind of species that have no business to be in such proximity to each other (or to serve as food source for people) - this is going to snap.
They say now that this virus keeps on mutating and becoming more and more aggressive.
Yes, that's what they say over there.
Yah. US food animals - chicken, cattle, swine - are treated in similar ways - although we tend to rationalize the coops into huge Quonset hut types of housing. & we use a lot of antibiotics on our food animals - one reason that antibiotics are losing efficacy in the West. We also use various hormones on dairy cows - but that's another matter.
Frankly, the movement to vegetable protein in the West is coming just in time - assuming that we can get over the Wuhan CV issue, & any related issues still over the horizon.
I read upthread that Trump or some part of his government was making noise because they could not take charge or personally investigate the contagious illness in China. Canadians are working on a vaccine in Canada. Why does the USA want to be in China to help contain the illness?
Planes are still arriving from China. If the USA wants to do something to prevent the spread, they can do something on their own shores first to indicate sincerity.
It's about getting patient & disease experience, & gathering case histories & data. For data purposes, you want to go to the site of the concentration of the disease, which means Wuhan & China.

No thanks I will pass.. I would be gracious and say I am watching my waistline. Better than gagging in front of them.. I have been offered such things as octopus and passed.. rattlesnake meat , chocolate covered ants..ugh..
