SEATTLE (AP) — Washington state health officials announced two new coronavirus cases Friday night, a woman who had recently traveled to South Korea and a high school student with no known exposure to the disease whose school will be closed and sanitized. Neither people were seriously ill...

Hopefully this uptick in cases is a reflection of more testing.
Incorrect testing? Outliers?
@kinhell mate, it's scary enough coming in this thread and looking at all the posts about this virus, then I see your Avi, is it Peter Sutcliffe?
On a large scale that is a legitimate problem.
Hhhrrrmmm. Public health have been unsure if you could be re-infected. Normal practice, if you are managing flu or similar outbreaks, is to ask healthcare workers who have had the flu to work with those infected as the likelihood of re-catching the flu once you've had it is low.
LBC just reported first case of virus been detected in Sussex the news the government are dreading as the person has not been abroad or in contact of anyone from the already infected countries .....In otherwords caught it maybe locally in everyday life .......shopping etc etc ........worrying as per incubation some of the public are walking around with no symptoms, but obviously carririors .....the person has been put in a isolation unit in Sussex ......breaking news sorry if someone else has posted this .....
It is getting increasingly worrying. Is this a separate one from what the BBC reported last night? They said first case found in Surrey.
Yes it was Surrey on LBC before but still rushed to an isolation unit in London no contact with the normal contact of outside this country though - I was at an NHS hospital for an ultrasound xRay on my aorta heart valve - the nurse stated it's too late the horse has bolted as the incubation of any virus cannot be detected so it will spread, but it's nothing to get alarmed about .....funny never had to wait the waiting room was deserted ......urm funny that actually I never had reservations on attending that appointment, but the room was deserted bar one other couple......
When I left at 3-30 pm no one waiting?

It's probably the healthy attitude, seeing how there's very little any of us individually can do.
Could be false positives; tests are not 100% reliable. However, dormancy is not unprecedented in humans (eg: chicken pox -> shingles, cold sores), though this would be a vastly shorter dormant period. Really bad news if that turns out to be the case and people become severely ill again. Probably less of a problem in the limit if the infected become asymptomatic carriers, but has the potential to turn into a bad sci-fi story in multiple ways as well.

Due to fly to the Caribbean next Monday. Taking my little girl on her first holiday. Not feeling particularly enthusiastic about air travel atm. Not because I think we'll get the virus per se, but more because one suspected case on your complex and bang, you're in your room for two weeks with potential delays.
Just gonna have to keep an eye on this over the next few days. If it was just me and the wife I'd be less arsed, but as other parents will know, the baby adds a new dynamic.
