In China there is an outbreak of a new corona virus. Most patients have fever and respiratory complaints. Together with the World Health Organization WHO, the Chinese authorities are currently investigating the corona virus. They also look for the source of the infections and take measures to prevent further spread of the virus.
Patients with new corona virus
Most patients are from or have been from the Wuhan region. The virus has also emerged outside of China. The virus has surfaced in neighboring countries such as Japan or Thailand. The virus has also been detected in patients outside Asia, including in the US, United States, Germany and France.
Symptoms of new corona virus
People with the new coronavirus have a fever and respiratory complaints. Think of coughing, shortness of breath or pneumonia. This new coronavirus differs from the known coronaviruses that occur in humans.
Contagiousness
The disease can be transmitted from person to person. It is not well known how contagious the virus is and how quickly it spreads. The WHO and Chinese government chart the situation from day to day. In the coming period, more will become clear about infectivity.
Chance of a new corona virus in the Netherlands
It is possible that the virus can be detected in a person in the Netherlands. Most of the patients diagnosed outside of China have been in the Wuhan region or have been in contact with someone infected with the new corona virus. If a patient emerges in the Netherlands with the virus, a detailed map will be made of who this patient has been in contact with. The Municipal Health Service (GGD) will monitor all contacts in order to prevent the disease from spreading.
Preparation
Dutch infectious disease doctors are informed by the RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment about the latest state of affairs and the developments surrounding the new corona virus. Furthermore, the RIVM and the Erasmus MC Erasmus Medical Center are testing patients who suspect they might have the virus. This test can only be requested by the GGD or a hospital. All GGDs and hospitals are aware of the protocols how to deal with a patient and what measures must be taken.
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) proclaimed the outbreak an international public health threat (PHEIC Public Health Emergency or International Concern status). The measures that the Netherlands has prepared and are ready for fall within this phase.
Travelers
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently issued a negative travel advice for the province of Hubei. The province in which Wuhan is located. An adapted travel advice applies to China: only necessary journeys. For current travel advice click here.
Have you been to mainland China with the exception of Taiwan, Macau and Hong Kong and do you have a fever and respiratory symptoms (such as cough, shortness of breath or pneumonia)? Then contact your doctor by telephone. Indicate that you have been to mainland China, with the exception of Taiwan, Macau and Hong Kong..

If you want to read about Holland, you must start with Dutch apple fighting the water from the sea. Much land nowadays used to be sea, but dikes made it possible to conquer land. The shared responsibility to preserve the land delivered the way of discussing problems in our country. A lot of gathering and meetings in a narrow network guarantees our dry feet. The way to solve these problems is also used in economics and healthcare. This small country achieved good results and is rich, with a good system of healthcare and education. The education is at high level because the freedom to speak and act. We hardly know censorship, but that's not good for everyone; abuse is not good.
Yes we grow tulips, yes we have Van Gogh.. remember Vincent was ill in his head. He painted very good, that's right. We have 1 big museum of Van Gogh in Amsterdam, you must visit. The most important is the way we sport and have meetings in towns and villages. We have a good network of organisations and sportclubs with a lot of competitions in our neighbourhood. I have never seen this way anywhere in the world. If you are interested, try to approach the Dutch coaches in football who are now active in China. There are several coaches and they can explain the way sport is founded in Holland. I will make an instruction for you, I will post it on my website to show. This is also for my friends in Kalimantan, Indonesia.

Dear Daisy,
Here new photo's from holland. we have an exhibition about tulips. These tulips are selected and presented and manufacturers compete to be the best. My father in law did win this year and he is very proud to achieve this. You must know, these were produced under glass, purely for the exhibition. Most of the tulips are in the ground outside and will have flowers in spring, april to mai.

Dear Daisy. Above the video I made from youtube to avoid censorship. it starts with some Dutch watermanagement, which locations you can visit if you want to. The distances are small in our country.
Watch the video with care and listen good. Don't bother the dutch subtitles.

Dear Daisy, here an article from the economist
CHIEF executives of Hong Kong have never basked in public adoration. The first one under Chinese rule, Tung Chee-hwa, resigned after a massive public outcry against his policies. The second, Donald Tsang, ended his term with allegations swirling around him of improper conduct (he denies them). Now the third, Leung Chun-ying, has said he will not stand for another five-year term. Though he cites family reasons, his rock-bottom popularity may well have been a factor. Nearly 20 years after taking back Hong Kong, the Communist Party in Beijing may be wondering whether it can ever pick a winner to lead the former colony.
It had been widely assumed that, despite Mr Leung’s low opinion-poll ratings, the party would give him tacit backing in a race getting underway for the post of chief executive. The choice will be made in March by the 1,200 members of an election committee stuffed with the party’s supporters in Hong Kong. It only takes a nod from leaders in Beijing to swing votes in favour of the party’s preferred candidate.
LBut on December 9th Mr Leung told reporters at a hastily arranged press conference that he would not join the race in order to protect his family from the “intolerable stress” of it. It is likely that officials in Beijing had cold feet because of public contempt for him. He is often called “the wolf”—a reference to his aloof and cunning demeanour and a play on his surname, which sounds like the Chinese word for the animal. During the “Umbrella Movement” of 2014, when busy commercial areas were disrupted by weeks of sit-ins, protesters demanded his resignation, as well as free elections. The party was doubtless pleased by his resolute refusal, in line with its own, to countenance such concessions. But it must also have worried that keeping Mr Leung in place for another term would goad demonstrators back onto the streets and risk plunging Hong Kong into yet more unrest. A day after Mr Leung’s announcement, hundreds of his opponents joined a demonstration in central Hong Kong. Some held up placards attacking him (see picture).
The party, however, is doing a good job itself of riling Hong Kongers. Its opposition to full democracy, which many thought they had been promised when China took over, has fuelled a small but growing pro-independence movement which worries the party even more. With the help of a constitutional ruling by China’s national parliament, it has supported recent efforts by Hong Kong’s government to get several independence-leaning and other pro-democracy lawmakers disbarred from the Legislative Council, or Legco, on the grounds that they took their oaths improperly. Two have been excluded and cases involving another four are being considered by Hong Kong’s High Court.
Officials in Beijing will now be wondering who best can pursue the seemingly impossible task of containing pro-independence and pro-democracy sentiment, while at the same time winning the support of Hong Kongers. So far only two people have declared their intention to stand. One is Woo Kwok-hing, a retired judge who has little hope of gaining the party’s backing. The other is Regina Ip, a former security minister who is now a member of Legco. She threw her hat in the ring on December 15th. Mrs Ip is best known for helping with a failed attempt to push through a security law in 2003. Public opposition to it dealt a huge blow to the popularity of Mr Tung, the first chief executive, and led to Mrs Ip’s resignation. She says she would “definitely go ahead” with efforts to revive the bill should she win.
Another possible is John Tsang, Mr Leung’s former finance minister. Mr Tsang resigned from that post on December 12th, fuelling speculation that he wants to stand. Some analysts believe that a job he once held as private secretary to Hong Kong’s last British governor, Chris Patten, may rule him out: the party regards Mr Patten as the font of Hong Kong’s post-colonial ills.
The party may prefer Carrie Lam, who has served as head of the civil service under Mr Leung. Mrs Lam had said she would retire next year, but now says she has had “no choice” but to reconsider following Mr Leung’s announcement. There is unlikely to be a pro-democracy candidate. The election committee is mostly made up of representatives of businesses and occupations that tend to be pro-government. In polls held by such groups on December 11th to fill election-committee seats, supporters of greater democracy took more than 320, up from around 200 in 2011. But the pro-democracy camp does not want to appear to legitimise the gerrymandered election process by proffering a candidate. Mr Leung’s critics are resigned to a successor who is all but certain to be as faithful to the party as he has been.
