Don't be ridiculous, the flu shot causes autism, everyone knows that. Far more people are killed by flu, but it's our flu, not some foreign thing caused by eating live bats.

Re: Winnie the Flu
First two confirmed cases in the UK, but at the moment the identity and location of the two people are being kept secret. We've been told they are both members of the same family.

Re: Winnie the Flu
I am shocked, shocked!, to find xenophobia in the west. If only something(s) had happened over the past 4 years to alert us to this.

But I bet the xenophobes are all over it.

Perhaps of interest:

Local English rag translates and summarizes local Chinese rags. Naturally, heavy on the coronavirus content at this moment.

Re: Winnie the Flu
Wuhan turns to social media to vent anger at coronavirus response | Coronavirus outbreak News | Al Jazeera
Quote:
Another young man from the neighbouring city of Huanggang said in a video posted online on January 30: "I might be arrested after posting this video. But I still want all of you to know how dire the situation is in Huanggang, and we are in desperate need of help - the government doesn't care about us any more!"
That video has since been taken down.

Lots more stories like that.

Re: Winnie the Flu
The worst for me was a report of a family being quarentinned while their disabled son died for lack of their family caring for them.
And the story of a Chinese born woman not allowed to travel with her son and American husband home. Trump's America loves to split up families

Same story for a British couple with a Chinese-born mother. At first I thought it was a British rule, but in a later article I read that the Chinese were not allowing Chinese-passport-holders on the evacuation flights. So am confused. (Not about which governments are bastards though: that would be all of the above.)

Re: Winnie the Flu
President Trump has asked the scientists working on the vaccine to ensure that the main component molecule contains two iron atoms.
Then it can be named the nCov-Fe-Fe vaccine.

Re: Winnie the Flu
Great minds think alike. "This is going to be a movie" I thought when I read that news.
