I do not trust Coronavirus related positive reports from both China and Japan. Both countries have motivation to deceive people. China wants to give positive image to the world and Japan wants to go ahead with Olympics. Both countries are not trust worthy. They have a history of lying.
China said Tiananmen Square Incident did not happen. And Japanese Governemnt said Fukushima Daiichi did not have melt-down.
I do not trust media either. They are just reporting what governments say without verifying the report. Media is just a place to advertise. They say whatever if they can make money. Where is the true journalism. Any media reporting there is no new cases in Wuhan, that is what Chinese government want them to say. Did those media defied? Do they have a reporter in Wuhan?
That is why they are called Fake News.
Also, I do not understand why in the world most world leaders are so afraid of Coronavirus. It killed about 8,000 people world wide. 150,000 people die everyday in the world. So why are they so panicking? Do they know something we don’t. 19 million people infected with Influenza in the US and 10,000 people died. We did not lock down but 214 people dead in the US from Coronavirus and we are locking down. Are you kidding? What is going on?
I know many business owners including myself is under stress not knowing what is going to happen next. Today we learned we no longer travel overseas. Here are some things PSPinc can help you with at no cost.

State Department warns Americans: Don’t travel abroad, come home if overseas
The announcement is the government’s most severe warning about international travel.
I have never seen this ever. The USA is virtually locked down. I know Coronavirus is serious, but does it grant this much? What does Governemnt know what we do not know?
PS: My friends (American) in Japan told me that they feel safer living in Japan. Japan has less Coronavirus Infection and Better health Care.
Do you know when you look at Coronavirus Data, the cumulative number will never decreases. Instead we all should be looking number of new cases. That will tell us whether Coronavirus is under control or not.
It is getting to the point that we need to live with the Coronavirus rather than fight it for now. We need to be extra vigilant in keeping ourselves clean and stay away from large gatherings. At the same time, we cannot kill the economy that we have worked hard to build. No matter how much we do not want to get infected, soon or later someone (including yourself) will get infected with the Coronavirus. Let’s just hope that it will not lead to a worst case scenario.
To prevent spread many companies currently are, and will be, asking people to work remotely. If you need to access file servers at your office, you need to have what is called VPN (Virtual Private Network). A VPN allows you to access files and programs at the office as if you were physically present there. To do this, you need to have VPN hardware (typically a router) and your PC set up.
I have asked my company’s Customer Support team to provide this setup at no charge to customers as a community service. If you need help or advice on setting up a remote working environment, please call us. We are doing this to make sure our customers and employees will stay safe during this crisis.
If you need VPN help or advice, please call 425-957-0808 and ask for Customer Support. You can also send an email to support@pspinc.com .

Compared to Seattle ... Shibuya (Tokyo) looks almost normal. No store including restaurants and bars are closed. With new infections are almost 0, things does not look so different. I hope we get back to that soon.
Good Morning from Bellevue, Washington, USA.

Coronavirus Facts
I just listed the facts based on the public record. No judgement here.
As of today, we recorded 210,000 Coronavirus confirmed cases in the world with over 8,000 deaths since last December. Almost 83,000 people have recovered. The fatality rate is about 3.8%.
In the US, as of March 18, 9:00am, there are 7,512 confirmed cases with 115 deaths. That is fatality rate of 1.5%. Sp far only 106 people has recovered and released from the hospital.
Death rate by age is another concern. Here are the current numbers;
80+ years 14.8%
70-79 years 8.0%
60-69 years 3.6%
50-59 years 1.3%
40-49 years 0.4%
30-39 years 0.2%
20-29 years 0.2%
2—19 years 0.2%
0-9 years 0.0%
Compare to Influenza
This fatality rate is one of the highest among the virus infection. Average Influenza fatality rate is 0.1%. In the US, 19 million people got flu and 180,000 people had to be hospitalized in 2019. Out of that 10,000 people died. That is a fatality rate of 0.05%.
No opinion here. I just listed the numbers I found on the net. What do you think. about Coronavirus based on those facts. (Unless those facts I listed are not correct.)
