As far as I'm aware it's now in 189 countries, or 190 if you include N.Korea (who obviously aren't reporting it).
There's only 195 countries in the world. I reckon by this time next week it will be in all 195 countries, if not sooner. |

Totally agree
How nuts it that though, at least future generations will have learnt how NOT to handle this kind of thing..... |

Why haven’t all flights been grounded. I know money talks but just completely ground everyone. I know people have spent money on their yearly holidays but I know I’d rather keep people alive than have a few sangrias in the sun by the sea. That shit is overrated anyways |

"Even Spanish flu didn't manage that in its 3 year presence. "
Spanish flu had to almost walk it's way around the world. It only took hold because of all the men from the trenches that took it home with them, spreading it to many countries in one go. Continent to continent journeys were still measured in weeks.
The other side of the world is now only 24 hours away. And travel between countries is funnelled through the gateways of airports, where hundreds of thousands pass through daily. It would be hard to deliberately design any system for more effectively ensuring a germ coming from one country gets passed to every other country in the shortest possible time. |

Yup many people from many nations traveling in a aluminium test tube In the sky land and are forced through a Petri dish that's is the airport allowed to disperse usually via public transport many people in a confined space then arrive in either a city or hotel a location of many people in a confined space.
It's a perfect system for spreading a virus. |

You're right. It's a shame the experts didn't figure this out in December/January. When did WHO call it a pandemic? All too slow. Their criteria should have been when not if. |
