Douglas Golden Published February 1, 2020 at 10:09am On Thursday, the first confirmed case of first person-to-person coronavirus, the deadly outbreak that allegedly started due to a Chinese seafood “wet market” in Wuhan, was confirmed in the United States. “The husband of an Illinois woman with Wuhan coronavirus is now infected with the illness, and is the first confirmed case of person-to-person transmission of the virus in the United States, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced on Thursday,” CNN reported. The director of the Illinois Department of Public Health said that “the risk of this novel coronavirus to the general public in Illinois remains low” and that they would “continue to keep the public fully informed as additional information becomes available.” The same cannot be said from where the outbreak started. Virus whistleblowers had detected the outbreak in December, a month before it was officially reported by Chinese officials. Instead of being lauded for scientific rigor, they were “arrested for spreading rumors,” according to the U.K. Mirror. The news, which broke as an airlift repatriating Britishers from disease epicenter Wuhan, “comes as the Chinese authority’s attempts to suppress news of the viral outbreak became known.” “A leading UK expert on China claims whistleblowers who warned last month about the outbreak at Wuhan’s live animal market were arrested for ‘spreading rumors,’ the Mirror can reveal. A legal document seen by the Mirror appears to be signed and finger-printed by citizens promising to stop discussing the outbreak. “Their whereabouts now are not known. Dr. Yukteshwar Kumar of the University of Bath, who obtained the document, said eight were held for talking about the outbreak on Chinese messaging service WeChat.” “They were asked to sign a confession stating that they will not spread false news. If they had taken steps earlier the situation could have been better because they did know about it,” Dr. Kumar told the Mirror. “People could have been made aware in late December. The authorities could have stopped people travelling earlier. I highly appreciate the efforts made by the government of China in locking down the whole city. However, if they’d listened to the advice of these eight people and some scientists the situation would have been perhaps better.” This is somewhat important considering the fact that the World Health Organization held off declaring the coronavirus a global health emergency in part because of the low number of confirmed cases and the lack of evidence of human-to-human transmission, according to The New York Times. Part of the decision, the paper reported on Thursday, was also because “the coronavirus outbreak spread well beyond China, where it emerged last month. “The move reversed the organization’s decision just a week ago to hold off such a declaration. Since then, there have been thousands of new cases in China and clear evidence of human-to-human transmission in several other countries, including the United States. All of which warranted a reconsideration by the W.H.O.’s emergency committee, officials said,” The Times added.

Bullshit
"The government ruling us draws its authority not from the principles of the Declaration of Independence, or even from the delegate powers listed in the U.S. Constitution, but rather from the war to re-conquer the independent South. That conflict, usually referred to by the artfully misleading title “Civil War,” established the fact that the government in Washington is willing to kill Americans in whatever quantity it deems necessary in order to enforce its edicts, and then sanctify the slaughter in the name of some suitably “progressive” social objective.
According to the article, people were arrested for "spreading rumors". It seems that rumor mongering in China is verboten. ;) "When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one." Edmund Burke
The operating word here is 'reportedly' "The government ruling us draws its authority not from the principles of the Declaration of Independence, or even from the delegate powers listed in the U.S. Constitution, but rather from the war to re-conquer the independent South. That conflict, usually referred to by the artfully misleading title “Civil War,” established the fact that the government in Washington is willing to kill Americans in whatever quantity it deems necessary in order to enforce its edicts, and then sanctify the slaughter in the name of some suitably “progressive” social objective.
