    I can't give blood in Hong Kong because I'm British... I understand why and accept it.

    Had anyone here mentioned a possible engineered virus from a science laboratory in Wuhan got out of hand? There is a chinese media on youtube bringing this up. Another mentioned bio weapon.

    One wonder how could some virus coming from some sort of animals could have this mass scale of infection?

    I think you'll find its called evolution through mutation. Sorry, I'm fresh out of tinfoil hats.

The main testing centre in Manila is long established and receives Japanese assistance. All hospital testing and quarantine has been made free.

    From what I hear it is a lot more effective than in Hong Kong which I admit isn't saying much.
    Just an addition to this though, if the virus were to really get a hold the health system here would collapse I am sure, hence the importance of keeping it out if at all possible. The public health system is dire generally, mostly based on private.

    You forget to include engineered to tackle the HK crowd riots in your conspiracy theories.

    That also, probably was meant to kill protesters but got out of hand there.

    Ha ha you’re not serious? China is guilty of a lot of things but not stupid enough to do something like that.

    delete if a duplicate

    the diamond princess cruise ship in Japan has another 67 cases (285 total)

    would expect an advanced nation to have enough test kits but apparently they don't

    No prizes for guessing how long before they use this to criminalise independent reporting.
