I'm going to do a thread about the response to the Covid-19 Coronavirus in the Netherlands: socially, in the media, and by authorities.
Awareness rose the week of Feb 24.
It was reported as an overseas story, often with the tagline "Coronapanic" telegraaf.nl/nieuws/8782973…
Volkskrant headline: "Italian Coronapanic: yesterday someone sneezed on the Metro, half the people got up and moved" volkskrant.nl/nieuws-achterg…
Feb 27: first diagnosis in NL.
Explainer articles tended to play down the risks:
"the Coronavirus is not very contagious via the air"
"the chance of dying from the new virus is not very high statistically"
"the virus does not last long outside the body" volkskrant.nl/nieuws-achterg…

Extraordinary times.
Italy's draft emergency Coronavirus law to ban entry and exit to whole of Lombardy region - capital Milan- Venice, Padua, Parma & 8 others.
Weddings and funerals banned. Cinemas, gyms, pubs, museums all closed.
Anyone violating law can be arrested and fined.
Establishments that can stay open, such as places of worship, supermarkets, and restaurants, can only do so if they can guarantee a distance of minimum one metre between all visitors. If they cannot they will be closed
Supermarkets etc only allowed to open in the week; all closed on weekends.
Leave for all health workers suspended.

Clear and concrete advice for best hygiene practices to prevent catching or spreading the Covid19 Coronavirus from @HSELive www2.hse.ie/conditions/cor… ImageImageImageImage
How to clean your home or workplace to reduce spread of Covid19/Coronavirus?
@PHE_uk says the virus is thought to survive on surfaces for about 72 hours, and recommends regular cleaning of frequently touched surfaces and objects

@PHE_uk The @WHO says hand-washing is single most important factor to prevent the spread of illness.
Unfortunately, research by @Gallup has found that many Europeans do not wash their hands after the toilet, with rates as low as 50% in Netherlands and 57% in Italy

>>> viruses can also transmit through the eyes and tiny viral particles, known as aerosols, can still penetrate masks.
!!! it is possible to be infected with shorter interactions or even by picking the virus up from contaminated surfaces,,,

"This is probably the tenth drug store that I've gone to purchase masks & hand sanitizing gels. They say we have received written orders from authorities to not sell masks & hand sanitizing gels," this man says.

Welcome to #Iran under the mullahs' regime.

@WHO "A coronavirus patient in Nejatollahi Avenue... The situation is very, very dire. They're not telling us anything!" the man says.

The regime in #Iran has dangerously refused to provide necessary information to the Iranian people.

#Coronavirius

@MSF @WHO
@WHO @MSF Various officials constantly denied #coronavirus signs in #Iran.

Today, an MP said over 50 people died of the virus in his city alone.

The mullahs' regime is the biggest threat to the lives of Iranians and millions across the region.

Dr. Francis Boyle Creator Of BioWeapons Act Says Coronavirus Is Biological Warfare Weapon & WHO knows about it

Dr. Boyle believes the virus escaped from the Biosafety Level 4 laboratory in #Wuhan

Explosive statement but need corroboration

greatgameindia.com/dr-francis-boy…
He believes the virus is potentially lethal & an offensive biological warfare weapon or dual-use biowarfare weapons agent genetically modified with gain of function properties, which is why the Chinese government tried to cover it up & is now taking drastic measures to contain it
Dr. Boyle’s position is in stark contrast to the mainstream media’s narrative of the virus being originated from the seafood market, which is increasingly being questioned by many experts.

#Italy outlook for 2019: halting growth amid political volatility. We expect the country's unstable politics and deteriorating economic conditions to intensify this year. Our free latest analysis: bit.ly/2MIHfz3, with @p_ceretti
We expect Salvini to engineer a political crisis in an effort to trigger an early general election in late 2019 or (more likely) early 2020, at which it would be likely to emerge as the largest party at the head of a broad centre-right alliance. 1/
A key signpost to watch will be the European Parliament elections on May 26th. These would provide Salvini with an opportunity to deploy his anti-EU rhetoric, boost the Lega's support in opinion polls and build the party's profile at the national level. 2/
