80 deaths now, according to the Chinese gov't. One friend has said she read 3000 dead. A nurse in Wuhan claimed 2 days ago 90,000 infected (not sure if that's Wuhan or China overall). 3 Chinese people that I'm aware of have stated that the gov't is lying. To say that online is risking arrest, so I doubt that they are making that up.
Yeah, sadly, I've seen the same type of reporting from other reporting sources and people in Wuhan that are posting and trying to get past the Chinese govt. all-out censure. In addition to the US, every other country should shut down all incoming flights from China and try to assist as best we all can to contain the virus in China, limit the spread, and best help the Chinese beat this virus back where it apparently started.
If we wait for the Chinese to volunteer info, to ask for help and or to admit to the truth, it may well be too late NOT only for the people of Wuhan and China, but for the world entire.
100%! Agreed. Sadly, there may be cultural issues that may perhaps prevent the Chinese from asking for help. IMHO, the world simply must step up and render support all the while they work at protecting their own citizenry.
I believe that Mongolia has already closed their border.

We really need to come to their aid if they need it. If it gets out of hand, it's EVERYONE'S problem.
