    Yes I didn’t understand why the HK thread was locked. I wanted to comment on the crew member who infected three of his family. The exemption for crew is too lax and is going to cause more problems if it isn’t tightened up.
    From yesterday’s Dim Sum:

    Case No.5388, a 2-year-old baby girl, Case No.5389, a 36-year-old woman and Case No.5390, a 38-year-old woman were all epidemiologically linked with an imported case. They live at Tower 3, The Visionary, 1 Ying Hong Street, Tung Chung. All three developed symptoms on 8th November. A 38-year-old male crew member who was diagnosed earlier also lived there. He arrived in Hong Kong from Kazakhstan on Saturday (7th)

    Preliminary data from the first 200 patients to undergo screening suggests that almost 70% have impairments in one or more organs, including the heart, lungs, liver and pancreas, four months after their initial illness.

    “The good news is that the impairment is mild, but even with a conservative lens, there is some impairment, and in 25% of people it affects two or more organs,” said Amitava Banerjee, a cardiologist and associate professor of clinical data science at University College London.

    Far more Japanese people are dying of suicide, likely exacerbated by the economic and social repercussions of the pandemic, than of the COVID-19 disease itself.

    That is a misleading article. A quick Google shows suicides are down in 2020. 17,000 so far against 20-30,000 in previous years. Not denying the issue of suicide.

    The worst part is that there are Covid patients who still insist the virus does not exist....and then they die:

    Unsurprisingly the South Dakota is a big Trump supporter and this was also the place where they held a huge motorcycle rally in Sturgiss this summer. Here's the nurse interview. Also an ignored plea to the same governor by a Sioux Falls doctor.
