A very interesting take on trying to quarantine disease:

Heh, I can’t watch a video that long up here unfortunately. 🙁
Our internet is super slow…
A domestic flight (from Las Vegas to Baltimore) was quarantined a couple of hours ago. I don’t know the status now. Someone on the plane was exhibiting flu-like symptoms and had recently gotten back from China.

Well, it’s based loosely on a tale by Edgar Allen Poe.

Well, the person didn’t have the Wahun, just a regular cold I guess.
This is going to be a very difficult illness to screen for.

I was exhibiting flu-like symptoms last night. And this morning. Which I hope are more related to my lunch yesterday than anything else.

Make sure to cook your bats and snakes properly, Setnaffa.

Well, I do appreciate the advice, CH; but I live in Texas where we have access to Brisket and Ribs… And I’ve never had any desire to make either into soup or push them up my nose.

I always felt the bat and snake shops in Pyeongtaek undercooked their bat and snake meat.

CH, you could be right. I doubt that I ever wandered too near any of them. I mostly hung out in the shopping area outside K-55 and made 2 trips to the “AK Plaza” or whatever it was near the train station in Pyeongtaek. Seems like there was a grocery there and a department store and a halfway decent coffee place. No sneks. No batz.

Setnaffa, we know what is around the Pyeongtaek station….every briefing says to avoid the red light district there.

Flyingsword, all I know is the bus dropped us off and there was a grocery store, a department store, and a coffee place. Hanging out with the wife, her sister, and her sister’s kid kept me from anything worse than flat feet.. I think, from looking at Google maps it was ABC Mart, AK Plaza, and Caffe Pascucci. I never got any farther, so I know nothing of these “red lights” you warn against… and actually, the second time I never even got a cup of coffee…
