This is similar to what I read in an article about some biopsies they were doing on some taken by the virus (dead). The findings are similar to what SARS or MERS does to the organs.
If the patient is dead it’s not a biopsy. It’s a limited autopsy.

Interesting
So are the “positive diagnosis” numbers being reported publicly anywhere???
Not true......positive test result with no symptoms are excluded from confirmed cases. They are only added when they show symptoms....I'm assuming that all "positive diagnosis" numbers are included in the number of sick.
I thought the same about nail salons....Eat at your local Chinese restaurant or watch it close down- Australians urged to put aside coronavirus fears as Asian eateries across country rapidly go out of business

I think this is going to be a very big problem unfortunately. I went to the best Chinese takeaway with 5 star reviews where I live in Scotland on Saturday night. It was empty and the phone rang once during the time I waited for my order. It was crazy busy as usual when I last went in December. The three other Chinese takeaways nearby were also empty.
Has anyone had any success with canceling a cruise and getting a credit or refund during this? Specifically Royal Caribbean.
We had booked a cruise early December to go to the Caribbean (incl. Bahamas), leaving on 2/22. I have emailed numerous times, called numerous times (on hold 2 hours), and now this morning I have was told to call the original travel booking company (again).
We purchased travel insurance. My husband read we need a note from a Dr. My health has not been good (cancer, now diabetes), and I don’t feel comfortable leaving the country right now.

Two Japanese men and women in their 80s who were hospitalized and treated for the virus were killed on the 20th in a cruise ship passenger who was confirmed to be infected with the new coronavirus. This is the first time a cruise ship passenger has died and three people have been killed in the country.... According to government officials, two of them, a 87-year-old man and an 84-year-old woman, died on the 20th. Both were Japanese and had a basic illness and were confirmed to have been infected with the virus, so the man was hospitalized on the 11th of this month and the woman was hospitalized on the 12th. This is the first time a cruise ship passenger has died.....
I find it interesting that this article uses the word "killed"....BNO Newsroom

They include those with symptoms but have either negative test or no test.

Hubei, where the majority of the world's infections have been concentrated, added a new category of "clinical cases" to its reporting. Now, patients will be included who exhibit all the symptoms of COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus — including fever, cough and shortness of breath — but have either not been tested or tested negative for the virus itself.
A Change In How 1 Chinese Province Reports Coronavirus Adds Thousands Of Cases

And, They do not include positive test but no symptoms, making it impossible to understand their numbers.
______________________
China’s health authorities have decided to no longer count as confirmed cases those patients who test positive but don’t show symptoms. Skepticism was immediate.
The changes to the classification of asymptomatic coronavirus cases emerged on Jan. 29, in a set of guidance from China’s National Health Commission. The agency said that it would no longer count patients who had tested positive for the coronavirus but did not display symptoms as “confirmed cases.” Instead, those patients would be counted separately, as “positive diagnosis” patients, and would become confirmed only if they began showing symptoms.
How Many Coronavirus Cases in China? Officials Tweak the Answer
Looking forward to the read.OK Henry, you owe me 3 hours of my life for making me go down a rabbit hole to understand my ignorance and research to understand.
Whoa and I did, but stuff to share here back at ya. But it was so complex, that I just had a glass of wine and need to compile. Everyone here may know what I'm finding out, but just in case some were like I and had not before, I'll share as some may not also.
I'll do that in the am. This post and another poster that said "it doesn't add up"..... made me question my beliefs (love this site when other express differing opinion that makes me do a Winne the Pooh think think think)

edit- spelling
It's a google translation of the article so don't count on it being very accurate in which words were used.I find it interesting that this article uses the word "killed"....
Terrible news. This is going to cause panic on the ship. How many people are still on it?
They are going to have to take that boat out to sea and blow it up because few customers will be willing to go on it no matter how cheap the cruises are.
