    Here in the UK British Airways has stopped flights to and from mainland China while the situation is assessed. Flights to Hong Kong are unaffected so far.

    I'd like to be cobranded on the official death toll along with Juliet if that's ok.

    7,700 confirmed cases
    170 deaths

    It's almost as though all these administration officials were on a Jackass contest to see who will make the most asinine statement to the press.

    Apparently the virus dies from heat and alcohol, which makes me pretty calm that the first Nordic case was a Chinese tourist in Finland. Since Fins are happiest with a bottle of vodka in the sauna it shouldn't spread from there.

    Reportedly a huge surge in viewership of the 2011 movie Contagion over the past week. Funny how that works. If a potential planet-killing meteor is reported I guess people’s response would be to sit at home & watch Armageddon.

    This is the true mission of cinema. It was true in 1988 when we watched Meryl Streep in A Cry in the Dark to find out whether a dingo really did eat her baby, and it's just as true today.

    Armageddon doesn’t have the old guy on the bench reading the newspaper oblivious to all the people rushing past or the hundred story tall wave about to sweep him away so ima go with Deep Impact

    Which one has Morgan Freeman? You want him in charge in a crisis. Get him onto this virus ASAP. He already has experience in Outbreak.

    No, you forget the nuke & launch Bruce Willis directly at it. Does nothing to the asteroid but it takes people’s minds off things for a while.
