I've been keeping track of the numbers. I wish Fox hadn't taken down the graph they were using everyday as it was easier to compare stats day to day from a list of countries. Now you have to go by what they are listing as the number infected outside China without knowing exactly where those new infections are occurring. From the last known Fox graph to the number stated and new number given there was a 114 count difference....but without knowing exactly, as I stated, where they are originating from it's highly likely it's those on the ships stuck at ports whose numbers have been rising that account for the 114 difference. On 2/8/20 the number outside of China was 279, on 2/11/20 the number outside China was 393.....the difference could be coming from the ships, one ship, don't quote me, I think was up to 104 the other day.

I've been watching carefully, I don't want to be an alarmist to my family unless this starts to grow here. So far it's been fairly stable at thirteen cases and we are by now at or beyond the twenty four day period. What alarmed me was the announcement last night that three individuals in my city are self quarantining at home after returning from China. I was under the impression that anybody returning from China was required to be quarantined at the bases you mentioned....it makes me wonder how they managed to get here from China without first being processed through the bases....it's these types of questions that need answers so the public doesn't have to necessarily fear that people are somehow managing to get back here using alternate routes other than those designated as the process in place for re-entry from China. The health department says this is a atypical situation....I'd use like to know if he was talking about the fact they are going to the home under quarantine everyday and monitoring these individuals or that how they managed to get back here was unusual compared to the regiment others are going through.
