Because too few tests are being carried out to identify the actual numbers infected, and as a consequence people are dying of "something or other" all around the region.

A very sane post.

No tests no virus-magic!

Part of the early explosion of cases in Thailand was from the Lumpini Stadium superspreader which was traced back to Italy.

So in Thailand exploded because of a superspreader traced back to Italy but the thousands of people that fled Wuhan in January and came to Thailand to avoid the lockdown did not infect anyone. Those were not superspreaders. Amazing. This story from Thai media is more fantasy than the Lord of the Rings, yet a lot of people buy it.

So will the American scientists target Type A, and the Asian scientists target Type B and the Europeans target Type C?

Nowhere in the SCMP article does it say that the virus oiginated in USA.

Everyday is bringing further understanding of the virus. https://www.scmp.com/news/china/society/article/3079443/coronavirus-could-target-immune-system-targeting-protective.  It appears to attack the T-cells, in some patients, in a similar way to HIV. These T-cells are needed to protect our immune system. What I have learned in the last 24 hours:         (1) Three different strains on three different continents. (2) The virus can replicate up to 10 times faster than Sars. (3) It can attack T-cells in a similar way to HIV.

Don't scare people with half the information. Totally different than HIV. HIV attacks the T-cells but doesn't kill them. It uses them to hide and replicate further.  This mechanism they have found in Covid-19 simply kills the T-cell outright. Very different things.

My intentions are definetly not to scare people. I'm trying to educate, with up-to-date information/links. As you state yourself, both these viruses attack T-cells. The story is front page of SCMP. https://www.scmp.com/ but sadly not, that i'm aware of, in the Thai press.

could be wrong but wasnt singapore pretty badly hit?

from no test in jan to more than 500000 cases in few days ?

Mutated versions of ‘A’ were seen in Americans reported to have lived in Wuhan, and a large number of A-type viruses were found in patients from the US and Australia.

The complete opposite: Study charts the “incipient supernova” of COVID-19 through genetic mutations as it spread from China and Asia to Australia, Europe and North America

A pro china article to obfuscate the source of corona virus away from China. Not buying what their selling. Once independent now a Pro China mouthpiece. Just an opinion folks based on ownership facts. Take it or leave it.

Coronavirus likely originated in November, was first in U.S. in January

Researchers have tied the origin of the virus to a live animal market in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization first received a report of the outbreak on Dec. 31, but the virus originated in China more than a month earlier than that. A study published in early March by researchers at ETH Zurich puts the origin of the virus in the first half of November.               This is copied from YOUR link!

Many of the posts currently circulating include the profile photo of a Facebook user named Donna Lee Collier. Collier did not respond to a USA TODAY request for comment on the origin of the posts.  The origin of the posts is CCP (Chinese Communist Party!)

As the street demonstrations were unfolding in Hong Kong recently, the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) Propaganda machine was in full-on damage limitation mode. I was watching nightly the live streams on Youtube and reading the comments from the '50 Cents' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party  It sadly looks like they are now on Thai Visa Forum trying to bash America. On Youtube the moderaters deleted their profiles.

Not bashing anyone , just looking at facts

Philippines, Indonesia it is only just starting. Wait till all this is over before you can say what the virus looks and doesn't like.

France and Spain have similar numbers to Italy, how do you explain those? And how in the top 35 list of countries affected, there's not a single one from Southeast Asia? 

Philippines and Indonesia will be soon. Different countries are at different stages.

Seems to me that it just less effective in warmer countries. A known issue with the corona-virus types. 

 

People are just to scared to say it aloud because they are scared of complacency. Rightfully so I would say. 

MERS started in the middle east. Not exactly cold. 

 

Also, looking at the Saudi numbers right now, its just starting to really take off there, and the weather there is mid thirties right now and will be in the forties next month.
