Finally found time to watch the full episode of @AustralianStory featuring the fearless and inspiring @xu_xiuzhong, who always goes the extra mile to take on some of the most sensitive and challenging stories about #China.
It is unimaginable how much pressure she had to go through while exercising her rights as a journalist. So much of what she shared in the episode made me rethink a lot of the thoughts that had gone through my head in the past.
What we need to realize is for Chinese journalists like her, there is always going to be that extra level of risk and danger when they try to tell stories about China in a way that is not "approved" by #Beijing.

Some #COVID19 great news coming out of #Taiwan. A team of genome researchers at Academic Sinica developed a rapid testing that can shorten the time for nucleic testing, the standard testing to confirm #coronavirus cases, from 4 hours to 15 to 20 minutes. udn.com/news/story/120…
This whole research took the team only 19 days to complete. The team successfully identified the single antibody that can distinguish the RNA of #SARSCoV2, which can play a key role in developing the rapid test.
Once again, #Taiwan proves to the rest of the world why playing by #China's rule to exclude it from @WHO is a big mistake, as the island's efficient deployment of key resources to fight the #COVID19 epidemic has proven to be the key in its success time and time again.

This thread is dedicated to #coronavirus / #Covid19 information. The full name is "2019 novel Corona virus", shortened to 2019-nCoV & Covid-19. Its name comes from the crown-like spikes on the surface of the virus that resemble flares in the sun's corona.
Coronaviruses are zoonotic diseases, meaning that humans become infected by animals that have the disease. Scientists speculate that #Covid19 may have originated from Chinese bats or ant-eating pangolin. It is possible the virus crossed multiple animals before infecting humans.
Dozens infected in the #Covid19 outbreak worked in a Wuhan animal market, but tests of #coronavirus samples from the market have yet to identify a source. The close proximity of shoppers to animals in wet markets has made them breeding grounds for zoonotic diseases in the past.

All new cases are connected to the original New Rochelle case.

As we do more tests, the number of positive cases will rise, as we are seeing.
New York State is implementing a statewide #Coronavirus testing protocol.

There is an order of priority for testing, defined below (1 through 5):
There are currently ~4,000 NYers under precautionary quarantine right now.

Precautionary quarantine applies to those who:

-Returned from a country of concern but are NOT symptomatic

Now that it appears #coronarvirus was engineered, it makes me wonder if the Chinese spy “tourist” who tried to get into Trumps’ Mar-A-Lago and was arrested by Secret Service. Was that a test to see if a virus-carrying Chinese assassin could penetrate the Trump compound?
Infecting a Secret Service agent while the virus is still in its incubation stage — where the host is nevertheless highly contagious — seems to be a perfect tool for an undetectable assassination.
China hates Trump and hates the fact they can’t buy him. Being forced to deal with him and being publicly bitch-slapped by Trump for their cheating, theft and tyranny has been humiliating. But killing him would start WWIII. But what if they could kill him ANONYMOUSLY?
