Pentagon Makes Quarantine Housing Announcement as More US Virus Cases Appear

The Department of Defense announced Saturday that it is making room at four military bases for up to 1,000 people who might need to be quarantined because of exposure to the coronavirus.
The announcement came as Massachusetts confirmed that a Boston resident became the eighth confirmed case of the virus in the U.S. and New York City authorities said they were awaiting results on a possible case there.

The installations that will house Americans who return from overseas and must be quarantined include the 168th Regiment Regional Training Institute in Fort Carson, Colorado; Travis Air Force Base in California; Lackland Air Force Base in Texas; and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar in California, according to Fox News.

The need for housing came in response to a Trump administration decision revealed Friday by Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar.

Death toll at just over 500 now. Seems to be slowing down, compared to last week.

AND.....70 Americans from Wuhan, China are on their way to Camp Ashland here in Nebraska (30 miles away from my town) to undergo a 14 day quarantine.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

Heard a Dr comparing the mortality rate between novel coronavirus virus, SARS and MERS.
At the moment novel coronavirus is 3%. SARS was around 10% and MERS was about 30%.
He also said he expects the mortality rate of novel coronavirus to actually go lower.
It appears to transmit quickly, but it isn't as severe as the previous two outbreaks

28,000 confirmed cases......a newborn counted among them.

Maybe it hasn’t slowed down. 638 deaths now. 8 more Americans infected.
Total infected is now 31,161.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus

550 dead ...

then

638

so HOW can this statement be even closely factual?

"He also said he expects the mortality rate of novel coronavirus to actually go lower."

you can not have a mortality rate to go lower.

WTF?
