They do make their own beer. What's somewhat frightening is that there is no evident transmission path for some of the clusters of the virus.

Pretty good beer IMHO
It will come as no surprise that QingDau was a German colony (nice place I went there when I was working in China)
from wiki Tsingtao Brewery Co. Ltd. is China's second largest brewery, with about 15% of domestic market share. It was founded in 1903 by German settlers in Qingdao, Shandong province. Its logo displays an image of Zhanqiao, a pier on Qingdao's southern shore.

Excuse me, I was wrong with my numbers. Flu deaths in the US average between 12,000 and 50,000 per year. 2018 was a record with 80,000 deaths. Why weren't you panickers not panicking then????
Nothing to see here...
CDC: 80,000 people died of flu last winter in the U.S. - STAT
Anheuser Busch was started by a German brewer too, and look how they screwed up his beer. Bud and Bud Lite should not even be classified as a beer. He is rolling over in his grave.
Beer as a drink was unheard of in the far east so when "the west" started trading they took it with them, Most Japanese beer companies started with German tech too, from what I remember. Its the same with bread whereas some stuff like noodles went the other way.

Now, if this were 1919 and there was word of Influenza going around, I'd be a bit concerned. But it's not and neither am I.
Now, back to my St. Pauli Girl beers - all y'all carry on

I think thats a good point. The 2.5% fatality rate is of diagnosed cases. If at least half of the cases are not diagnosed, which seems like if anything a conservative estimate then that rate would be cut in half.
So the actual fatality rate is probably somewhere around .7 to 1.25 at most.
That would be a bad flu but no worse as far as fatality rate. It is more contagious apparently but it certainly doesn't look as worrisome as the media were making it out to be.

If one remembers Betelgeuse was going to explode in a giant super nova and I looked at Orion last night and the shoulder was still there.
So media and science don't mix.
The media was all over the Betelgeuse story and lo and behold total nonsense.
If it's in the papers it ain't true.

What constitutes Plagiarism?
Pretty much like posting photos here without citing the source
