--- Quote from: Syntax Error on May 05, 2020, 08:47:50 am ---Consistent with many peoples suspicion, and counter to official govern-mental 'evidence', France has confirmed it's first medically proven Covid19 case was in late December.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.  1 doctor, 1 test is not extraordinary.  I'll wait till this is investigated, peer reviewed and checked out.

I don't quite see what extraordinary evidence this should be. A patient was tested positive. Apart from a contaminated sample, nothing can change that to be a non-evidence.

I agree. Lately this thread seems to have been taken over by government conspiracy theorists.

Why would that claim be extraordinary? It's of no surprise what so ever. Wuhan had cases all through December, and we have these amazing things called airplanes that transport viruses around the world within days.

By the end of December the disease was already becoming problematic in Wuhan and many international businesses have operations there so people normally are flying in and out of Wuhan all of the time.

Globalization means many more coronaviruses and other illnesse will travel all over the globe, rapidly.

I am resistivity to it precisely because it plays right into the narrative of the conspiracy theorists. 

"It's all China's fault."
"China withheld data."
"It came from a Chinese lab".

Right along with the,

"They are lying; I had Coronavirus in November!"

and so on.  Just wait, I guarantee you this will be picked up by them and used to sing their BS.
paulca:
You asked about airlines.

Here is the Monday morning Belfast to Heathrow service.
