Cheers dude - HK has generally better levels of hygiene, less spitting at least, plus you had more deaths during sars (official ones anyway...) so hopefully it won't be too bad there. Definitely the wrong time of year!!! I have a flight out in 8 hours so I'm just hoping that all goes smoothly, they do heat checks at Pudong airport and I've been caught before - not ill, just really fucking hot...

How are things in HK right now ? my wife is has an external examiner job for a uni out there and is going for 7 days towards end of May.
She wants me and the two year old to go along with her. I'm not massively keen mainly because I rather spend the money on new wheels for a bike. But also I'm a bit apprehensive about being on my own for long days with a two year old in a place that I know nothing about. How are thing safely wise currently ?
I'm here in coronavirus-land: online and offline stores have all sold out of masks, every gathering of more than 500 people has been banned until after April, Wuhan and two other cities have been locked down, there's tons of fake news flying about but people are also quite worried. Everyone remembers the sars cover up and hopes that the strong reaction is an attempt to do better this time, though I would say there's still some degree of cover up.
Fuck those snake eaters who started this.
Wash your hands, people!
