I booked a trip with China Southern to Sanya with connections in Shengzhen and GuangZhou next month 🙁 I am worried and do not know if I should cancel my trip. This is bad news for me
@kobe what do you mean ?
The problem with staff wearing the face masks is the difficulty you have attempting to understand some of them. Moreover , you need to keep changing masks several times a day Most don’t
But take down your mask and "be a real Chinese", said People's Daily.
@Icarus As far as I remember, a "Kobe Bryant" used to love to post Chinese propaganda on every article related to CX. Calling oneself this name fits Chinese netizens behavior too.
Any plans on changing the blog so that the pictures load all at once instead of them only loading when you scroll?
Seen quite a few other comments around the blog with the same question

Something I'd like to get clear on. Did the people who died have poor hygiene or medical care?
So do people get the virus and not visit animal markets and have access to 1st world medicine, have normal symptoms and treatments? What's the prognosis?
The articles I read don't provide the details just scare the crap out of people.
@Gina Don't know but not everyone who gets it is dying, so that could indicate its killing people who are weaker or had prior conditions (I haven't seen all the data on it so I am not sure who is dying just that is a small percentage of total infected). That being said it is extremely contagious and I have heard reporting that hospital staffs, which do take universal precautions, are being infected at high rates. Wuhan has over 11 million people and is a national city so its not some backwater place where they don't understand medical care.
