kn95 n99, Passengers Milena Basso and her husband Gaetano Cerullo are calling for help from President Trump after being trapped on a Diamond Princess cruise ship off the coast of Japan with at least 61 positive cases of coronavirus; Fox News correspondent Bryan Llenas reports. We first heard about coronavirus only weeks ago. What started as a local outbreak in Wuhan, China, quickly spread across the entire country – and then around the world. Now there are at least 12 cases of the coronavirus in the United States. The death toll in China is well into the hundreds and continues to increase.
kn95 n99 - Across the globe, people are asking whether we are facing the next global pandemic. FIRST AMERICAN DIES OF CORONAVIRUS IN CHINA: US EMBASSY To answer this question and explain how concerned we, as Americans, should be, I discuss the coronavirus in detail on this week’s episode of Newt’s World. Despite conspiracy theories about biological weapons, the virus almost certainly came from animal populations, perhaps food markets. The outbreak is a reminder of how connected we all are, and that we need a sustained, worldwide flow of information in real-time to deal with global issues like this one. In today’s interconnected world, anyone is just a plane ride away from anywhere.
kn95 n99, CLICK HERE TO GET THE OPINION NEWSLETTER I was just in South Korea and observed that everyone who walked into a very high-end hotel had their temperatures checked. Anyone with a raised temperature was not allowed to enter. It was very interesting to observe the Korean response. Of course, China is the most directly affected country. The Chinese have effectively imposed a national quarantine and shut off entire cities. In some cases, authorities have even piled dirt to block roads. Such tactics raise a host of other issues – like how to bring food into these quarantined populations so people don’t starve.

The coronavirus is hardly the first outbreak to threaten China. Bird and swine flu have wreaked havoc in China and other Asian countries, as has SARS. Fortunately, mortality rates from the coronavirus have been relatively low compared to other outbreaks, and there are indications that this will be a short crisis. Still, we must be vigilant and educate ourselves to stay ahead of potential pandemics.
kn95 n99 - In this week’s episode of Newt’s World, I speak with two exceptionally qualified experts about the coronavirus. My first guest is Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the National Institutes of Health. I then talk to Dr. Peter Daszak, who is president of EcoHealth Alliance and a disease ecologist.
