severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2
(SARS-CoV-2)
What name does WHO use for the virus?
From a risk communications perspective, using the name SARS can have unintended consequences in terms of creating unnecessary fear for some populations, especially in Asia which was worst affected by the SARS outbreak in 2003.
For that reason and others, WHO has begun referring to the virus as “the virus responsible for COVID-19” or “the COVID-19 virus” when communicating with the public. Neither of these designations are intended as replacements for the official name of the virus as agreed by the ICTV.

I roll my eyes at conspiracy theories as much as anyone else, but how odd is it that the Coronavirus cases are apparently increasingly under control in China, while every other country seems to be descending into chaos? If any country were to manipulate a virus to utilize it as a biological weapon, they would, for obvious reasons, simultaneously work on a cure/vaccine/medicine, in order to preserve their own while they watch the rest of the world burn.
This shit is getting out of hand so my wife and I decided to just stay low and not travel at all for now. I'm not scared of getting the virus, but I think it's the responsible thing to do for now. Crazy thing though I probably have a higher chance of getting it in California.
The number of tests in USA is just ridiculously low. There's probably 5 to 10 times as many people as officially reported that have the virus in the USA right now.

If she is healthy she should be fine. My coworker and her husband just got on a plane to Germany literally right after Trump announced travel bans to Europe. They are flying right now. Hopefully they can come back.
This article was from Jan 31, 2020 the writers argue against a travel ban. They changed the title but it was originally bashing Far right and Trump over an immediate travel ban from China.

everyone says that, yea. but the thing is I have been down for an entire week so far, extremely sick. I dont know for a fact its covid19, could just be an extremely severe case of the "normal" flu, but that has literally never happened to me. whatever I got is putting me through hell and I'm only 28..
the only reason I havent been panicking and trying to get an official test is because Ive read theres no need to worry either way unless you run a really bad fever or start having trouble breathing. but I'm thinking about finally going to the dr because I really expected this shit to be better by now. I want to know what the hell i got

Wut ?? If she is upset because you avoided traveling during a global pandemic, you really should tell her to go kick rock not that I believe she would get upset in the first place.
