Timeline

30–31 December 2019 On 30 December 2019, an "urgent notice on the treatment of pneumonia of unknown cause" was issued by the Medical Administration and Medical Administration of Wuhan Municipal Health Committee. 27 people with pneumonia of an unknown cause were reported to the WHO on 31 December. Most were stallholders from the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market, seven of whom were in critical condition.

1January2020 Hunan Seafood Wholesale Market, the source of the initial pneumonia cases, was closed on 1 January 2020 for cleaning and disinfection.

2 January 41 admitted hospital patients were identified as laboratory-confirmed 2019-nCoV infection in Wuhan. 27 (66%) patients had direct exposure to Hunan Seafood Wholesale Market.

3 January Thailand began screening passengers arriving from Wuhan at four different airports. Singapore began screening passengers at Changi Airport on the same day.

5 January Early investigations into the cause of pneumonia ruled out seasonal flu, SARS, MERS and bird flu. The number of suspected cases reached 59 with seven in a critical condition. All were quarantined and 163 contacts commenced monitoring. At this time, there were no reported cases of human-to-human transmission or presentations in healthcare workers.

6 January Wuhan's city Lianghui started. City representatives met until its closure on January 9. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a travel watch at Level 1 ("Practice usual precautions") on 6 January, with recommendations on washing hands and more specifically advising avoiding animals, animal markets, and contact with unwell people if travelling to Wuhan

9 January The WHO confirmed that a novel coronavirus had been isolated from one person who was hospitalised. The first death from the virus occurred in a 61-year-old man who was a regular customer at the market. He had several significant medical conditions, including chronic liver disease, and died from heart failure and pneumonia.

10 January The gene sequencing data of the isolated Wuhan coronavirus, a virus from the same family as the SARS coronavirus, was posted on Virological.org by researchers from Fudan University, Shanghai. A further three sequences from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, one from the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, and one from Jinyintan Hospital.

11–12 January In China, more than 700 close contacts of the 41 confirmed cases, including more than 400 healthcare workers, had been monitored, with no new cases reported in China since 5 January. The WHO published initial guidance on travel advice, testing in the laboratory and medical investigation.

13 January The CDC announced that the genome had been posted on the NIH genetic sequence database, GenBank. On the same day, Thailand witnessed the first confirmed case of 2019-nCoV, first outside China. The affected 61-year-old Chinese woman, who is a resident of Wuhan, had not visited the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market but was noted to have been to other markets. She had arrived in Bangkok on 8 January.

14–15 January On 14 January, two of the 41 confirmed cases in Wuhan were reported to include a married couple, raising the possibility of human-to-human transmission. A second death occurred in a 69-year-old man in China on 15 January.



16–17 January On 16 January, the WHO was alerted by Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare that a 30-year-old male Chinese national had tested positive to 2019-nCoV during a hospital stay between 10 and 15 January.

China has too many mouths to feed, plus their leased crops in north- eastern Africa are being eaten by Locusts. God's will is a bitch. If you do not fear God, read Exodus from the Old Testament which was written by Moses through God. The Egyptians found themselves in the cross hairs of God's will. God is merciful, honest, just, fair, & always gives a warning to humans to repent their sins and thank the Lord our God for everything He has blessed us with. Amen

Strange is:
That the Chinese Pres Xi is walking around with the simplest mouth/nose mask that would allow any airborne pathogen through (at least in; at least through the eyes and the lose sitting mask).

Chinese authorities dragging their residents unprotected out of their homes - this would allow the spread of a virus to others and the areas (buildings, streets) the people are dragged through, thus increasing infection risk.

Quarantine of possibly infected and uninfected Chinese residents in the same 'containment camps' does nothing to contain a possible pathogen but would cause more infections.

Then, the US CDC failing so miserably: sending out test kits they later declare publicly as flawed.

And:
US government flying 2 plane-fulls of US residents who lived in Wuhan back to the US. First stating that these people would be quarantined at a military hospital that was being prepared for this purpose. But then shipping off at least some (count not reported as far as I could see) of these ex-Wuhan US residents into local public hospitals in the city. From where, at least one (as reported) such apparently infected ex-Wuhan resident was accidentally released due to a test kit labeling error by the hospital staff! Really? I worked at this hospital facility and have seen strange and silly things and people there. But during a potentially deadly epi/pandemic to not be able to read a label correctly is laughable. Even for their own protection, staff would be more careful (one would hope).
The released person/s then was/were allowed to roam freely in an undisclosed area and for an undisclosed time period before they were called back to the hospital. Really?
The hospital is in a highly populated city. No major warnings went out so that people could protect themselves after the infected person/s roamed the area. Really?

This looks like a real world continuation of the recent Event 201 simulation of a coronavirus pandemic simulation. For whatever reason (although control is always a good reason).

I don't dispute that people got and get sick, but for whatever reason is unclear to me. And even the danger of spreading this disease is questionable, unless of course Pres. Xi wants to get sick or even die by knowingly walking around with such skimpy protection.

People are going to die any way,if it's your time,it's your time if you don't catch it,then move don't worry about it worry about where your going when you leave this Earth,JESUS don't leave earth with out HIM!!

Most people are consumed be earthy matters, most don't think about where they are going after death (even some christian, catholic, pentecostals), they have no clue about what they need to do in preparation to have eternal life w/ Jesus. Being Born Again is not preached, hardly any mention of Satan, who is also called Lucifer, & will himself be in the Antichrist to rule for 7 yrs. People are confused about Fellowship (which is our pleasing nature to God & our daily relationship w/ Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen), Fellowship is not salvation, Salvation is when you as a person recognize that you are a sinner, we all are unless you are God & Jesus, that is in need of a Savior, remember that 1 sin=death. All good deeds, good intentions, belonging to a church, charity work, being a good person comes to be dirty rags for God when it comes to "Salvation". Salvation & eternal life w/ Jesus is achieved through believing, faith only, that Jesus is the Son of God, who shed his innocent blood at the cross so that all our sins past, present, & future could be forgiven if we accept Jesus death as payment for our eternal salvation. Your own merits are nothing, It is God's Grace Through Faith in His Son Jesus Christ.Amen. Pass this on!!

Gary, this is Melly Watchman a man of God, I am w/ Christ and inspired & guided by the Holy Spirit, the Bible/Word of God was given to us so God can prove that he is the one & only true God, none like Him, the Alpha & the Omega, the Creator of all things, never lies, never wavers, never changes his mind, gives warnings before judgement, knows the beginning to the end, immortal, pure, supernatural, without sin, merciful, just, loves all his creations. There is a but eventually. When people do not heave his warnings, worship other so-called Gods, mess w/ the DNA of his creations, eat impure animals, worship Satan/Lucifer, destroy his planet, treat others horribly, kill His prophets and Son, every thought is wickedness, self-reliance, does not need God in any way, greed, power, all kinds of perversion & sex and so on. The one thing that really pisses him off is messing w/ the Hebrews. God has been hard on the Jews, but only Him decides their fate, not anybody else. Like I said, God is true to his word, & nothing and I mean nothing will take the Jews out of Israel B/c God said so.
