They should be further isolate themselves at home because recent study shows incubation period could be more.

It was said just today that the quarantine need to be 24days so someone is giving false hope to the people. USA. People educate yourself on this virus stay prayed up so you can get up, because knowledge is power.

[wardmizell]

There is an Oklahoma man who just got back, wasn’t quarantined, he roams freely spreading the virus. It’s too late now

[liljons]

This is like waiting for the next full moon....to see who becomes a

[regulatorop]

ya im okay you know they checked me with a thermostat so you know im good

[llluiopsll]

Just imagine that the virus has evolved and instead of the normal weeks that it shows symptoms it’s 1 month

Me when i realized a global event hasnt happened so far: Somethings wrong I can feel it

[theamazingeddiehaskell]

China should pay for it? This is gonna cost over a trillion!

[johnodubh]

Thay say the incubation time now could be 24 days

[certifiedvirologist]

At least he's taking it well . I personally would quarantine him and his family at his house for another 14 days just to be safe.

Guys. Just because Africa and South America aren't showing cases, doesn't mean it's not there. There is a chance because of less equipment and different culture. The Virus could be growing silently. If that happens. We have a problem

[reyalexandro]

People forget China has a billion people and most of them are very poor which is why Wuhan was ravaged by this virus. Countries like India and some parts of Africa are more prone to outbreaks for the same reason. In the US, we are a more spread out population, have a good healthcare system, and we as people are alot more generally cautious so I dont think this virus will spread here like in China. But I can only hope.

anyone see the "train to busan?"

[Valcon]

I live in San Antonio...God help us all!

[Danette]

They're saying now it has possibly a 24 day incubation, maybe they need to stay in quarantine longer.

[blancovalverde]

You will not in to my Country..till you done with you 40 day Quarantine...=40 days

[TheEndingAbyss]

Someone recommend me some good plague movies/shows. I'd like to make myself paranoid.

[Mercuryrisingmetaldetecting]

Too bad the incubation period could be up to 24 days, according to a more recent study...

[R_Alexander]

Don't be afraid, be prepared but if you get infected, seek help and give it hell!!
