I live next to LAX. The disease portal of the entire US. So I am concerned about these things. I don't know how many thousands of people cycle thru our town to and from the airport in a given day. But it's a lot. And they are from every corner of the earth. I haven't read this entire thread. But I ...

This is a Korean language Amazon Prime movie. Given current events, I thought it would make an interesting movie. It begins as a solid disaster movie/public service announcement about a flu outbreak.

It crossed my mind that if the crematoriums were running 24/7 as has been alluded, due to the large amount of people killed by this virus. Wouldn't our spy satellites have picked up these heat blooms? And if so , then our government is complicit with China over the severity of the problem. OPIR - O...
