One touching story that came out two days ago was about a tea shop in Wuhan as the only shop open in the embattled province. The young servers were preparing milk teas for the medical personnel who were on the clock attending to the patients overwhelming in number. The young servers could have backed out, because their health could also be compromised. They didn't.
That act is the supreme sacrifice. That you offer your life for another.
The number of infected has soared to more than seventy thousand. It is like China is in a real war.
That means we have to pray for China.

War is always devastating. Incumbent upon a country and a people to defend one's self. In this war, the enemy is visible only in a microscope. The people couldn't give a real good fight.

I think for the ordinary citizens of China they need prayers for that since they are the innocent victims in this disease haunting their country. The government dismissal of the situation made it worse and underestimated its potency to spread that fast. They were taken by surprise with this outbreak.

@eileenleyva That is sad that South Korea has had local infection already. I know Singapore also had but I do not know how are they dealing with that one.

@rsa101 North Korea, too, has implemented strict measures restricting entry of Chinese in the country.

The slow and indifferent response of China's government sucks. The leadership is grossly responsible for the deaths and the ill condition of millions of Chinese.
Of late, South Korea has community spread of the COVID-19. No longer endemic to China. Now it seems like the beginning of a pandemic. Good Lord, please, don't allow that to happen.

It's very sad. I was reading that the virus could have been contolled in the early stages but some people tried to keep it silent. Don't know if that's true but a whole country and many other countries are in danger now, I hope the virus spread will be controlled soon.

An admittance from Xi Jing Pin that he knew of the novel coronavirus as early as 7 January. He thought the virus could be contained. He was wrong.

@besweet Some sources as the Daily Mail and Washington Post did surmise, as reported in networks like Al Jazeera, that Chinese spies had taken the coronavirus from a laboratory in Canada. It is supposed to be a bio warfare. As there is a lab in Wuhan, a strong hunch now spreads that there could have been a possible leak.
The death toll from the coronavirus outbreak in mainland China reached 1,868 as of now. According to the National Commission of Health in China presents the ...

@eileenleyva Maybe it could be isolated if there was early action. According to the news, the virus was transmitted from the animal to one human and then it spreaded from this patient to others. It wasn't from multiple sources.

True. Contagion knows no race nor creed nor borders. The people affected surely are suffering. We pray.

Yes, we definitely should keep China in our prayers. There have been way too many deaths from the virus. Praying that it doesn't become a pandemic.
