  • Ben Kavanagh is working as a teacher in Wuhan - the city under quarantine as the deadly coronavirus continues to spread across China. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
    Ben has been stuck in his flat for the duration of the lockdown. Today, he's celebrating his birthday - alone in his flat, having enjoyed a simple dinner out of stockpiled rations and ventured into the eerie empty city to throw out garbage and find water. He took his phone along to film it all for us.
    Like Ben, millions of Wuhan locals are in lockdown, as China's health minister warns that the virus is 'getting stronger'.
    Over 100 people have now died and more than 4,500 are infected - with many of those infected not yet displaying symptoms.

      NYC had a stay at home order. Nothing like Wuhan lockdown. You could come and go as you please as walking was considered exercise. Took too long to have essential workers like food cashiers (and customers)to have to mask to work. That was scary when going food shopping and seeing only half employees masked the others unmasked chatting away in the aisles. Many food cashiers came from the hottest hotspot areas of NYC to work in areas not as infected. But Thank God that they did go to work as many became infected and stores closed for disinfection. They worked, while others get $600 extra weekly added to their regular unemployment if they couldn't work at home. Many workers get more from unemployment than they did working.

      @@ladyinthelocker President of China said, “Situation Grave”. He also said, “Coronavirus is a Devil”. Expert medical researchers said “we should implement DRACONIAN measures to limit the spread”. Draconian would be like gassing an entire city. About 90% infected have been in the last 4 days. Death takes awhile. Estimates are that 100k already infected. People who die before making it to the hospital are not counted as a death. Not enough medical examiners to determine death. Food will run out and people will migrate and contaminate new areas. Global economy is about to collapse…give it a couple days.

      it's only fatal when people have underlying disease and mostly affects people over 40 so most of us are fine
      it spreads like the flu
      compared to the black plague and ebola it is miniscule because those could affect anyone and killed most of the people it affected.

      Duhhhreeell - It’s doubtful they will at all unfortunately. In America the Flu is seems to be deadlier right now, 8,200 people have died this season alone from influenza. Yet they really don’t have anyway to combat that. If the Chinese numbers are correct, you have a 6% chance of perishing from this strain of Corona.
