Life goes on in Quarantined Wuhan, China as Coronavirus spreads to Every Asian Country
Thursday, January 23, 2020
Life goes on inside the Quarantined city of Wuhan, China, where the deadly Wuhan coronavirus was first reported.
The city was closed down by Chinese authorities on Wednesday to stop the spread of the deadly Wuhan coronavirus. Public transportation was shut down and people were warned not to travel to or from Wuhan.
Still, panic has not yet set in among the populace in Wuhan or the countries surrounding China. Hundreds of travelers wore face masks at Hong Kong's Kowloon rail station.
Wuhan citizens waited patiently to buy groceries, while children wearing face masks splay on swings at a public playground in Wuhan.
Hairdressers wore black masks as they cut the hair of their customers in Beijing, China.
The mysterious SARS-like pneumonia virus has killed 17 people and sickened over 10,000. The virus reportedly leaped from fish and animals to humans.
The contagion is easily spread through close contact with infected persons and through the air by coughing or sneezing.
The virus replicates rapidly in the lungs and overwhelms the respiratory system, causing swelling in lung tissue, making it difficult for the patient to breathe. The cause of death is usually organ failure.
The World Health Organization (WHO) met last night but they failed to declare a global emergency.
