@CDCgov issued Level 3 China warning - Avoid non-essential travel - for China. I learned its scale only goes to 3. https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/notices/warning/novel-coronavirus-china?fbclid=IwAR2cFClv2EJNmHNbVGJvH30JuBQvEQj0ruPpY_zZ8s58Z5NJlVtFlm3U-nk 1/

I’m aware of panic in US around Ebola exactly 5 years ago, but #coronavirus is on bigger scale already.
There was also panic around SARS in 2002-2004, especially in Asia. How they compare, via CNN @juliaholli : https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/29/china/sars-wuhan-virus-explainer-intl-hnk-scli/index.html
And death rate comparisons as of Jan 29. 2/

The media needs to be super careful about not fanning flames of xenophobia in the US as the atmosphere is already poisoned. Even jokes about #coronavirus can add to the confusion and other problems. Time for great care, folks.

This is the moment when the people of the US and the world need to be able to believe the US government and its leadership when it speaks or shares info about #coronavirus
But everything’s that happened in the last three years has only served to undermine that faith. 4/

Earlier in this #coronavirus thread, I mentioned that @cdcgov has only three levels. @StateDept has four and just hit the fourth level for China. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/china-travel-advisory.html
Any CDC folks or experts on the CDC here who can explain why it doesn’t have this 4th level - do not travel?

One way to track how #coronavirus saga is going to figure in American media outlets is to see what kind of play @drudge gives it. Even now, his display and emphases guide many editors and reporters across the country. Here's this morning's page and play.
From @hildyjohns:
Put a healthy person next to a sick person and you get two sick persons. Chinese doctors report in the largest case study to date that 40 percent of a disease cluster got #2019nCoV IN THE HOSPITAL.
