Meaning they have not been tested. The link provided includes confirmed, suspected, and people from China in the US in quarantine. There are many ways to make the numbers appear worse. I'm not saying people shouldn't wash their hands and take precautions but the frenzied state people have put themselves in is not helping them or anyone else.

The CDC alone is not confirming cases anymore - those that were tested locally that were presumptive positive have been granted the leeway to approve as positvie- results do not have to go through them anymore...the CDC doesnt have the live updates...

Either way 3000 or 300 is a tiny fraction on 331 million. Like I said it will peak in a few weeks and the sanitary habits that people should normally follow will be paramount in stopping the spread.

Somebody is using this situation to crush the economy.
I have a family member he has been foreign exchange trader for long, he said the market has very unusual moves in last two to three weeks which was totally against the market nature.
Didn’t mean the up and downs but ignored a prof market sighs and rules traders used for tradings for decades.
Economy crush is more concern I think.
Lehmanshock, or whatever the world crisis before the WW2 there were always somebody manipulate the market using ppl to get panicked.
Hope things will get better ppl won’t lose their home and jobs.
Of course lives.

They were slow in checking if the covid infect human. But after they found it out they locked the city.
If not way more people would get infected like swine flu.
South east Asia has more wet wild animals market and the eat everything but Chinese not really.
Wuhan is a big city here is movie taken by local ppl after the outbreak.

There are a lot third world area and there are a lot first world area.
I’ve been to a lot placed around the world so many cities in China are new and very developed areas.

Sure we can disagree because sending me a video in Chinese doesn't really tell me anything. It's a lot of pretty pictures. Secondly, having third world areas in the same vicinity as first-world areas is problematic.
Lastly, do you know what Wikipedia is? It is not a valid source for anything. While in college, my phd professors would go berserk when people would site from wiki. It's a lot of people posting what they think/believe to be the truth. That is how wiki got started. js.

Seems like you be been to a lot of places or you at just being ignorant?
Let me ask how many places have you been to in this world?
Have you been to China?
Do you know the difference of Tokyo Shanghai and New York City.
Do you want to know how many cities I be been to on this planet?
And the third world area is the small villages they are very poor, but not inside of the city. :o

Right tiny fraction as of now - I think like 10k have possibly been tested (looking to fact check) but its only been a few thousand out of 331 million though...we haven't tested no where close the amount we should have
But yes hand washing - and mainly social distancing should knock it right out!! lol
