According to a report from The New York Times, the closure comes after a 29-year-old man tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday after he visited three nightclubs in the Itaewon area in the city last weekend. As of Saturday, officials said they were tracking down more than 7,000 people who had visited five nightclubs in the region, according to the report.

South Korea has so far achieved a great deal of success in mitigating the virus without completely shutting down its economy, due in part to its rigorous testing and contact tracing strategies. But as The Times noted Saturday, the question now is whether South Korea can make a further shift toward normalcy without negating its success in flattening the curve.
A "large number" of extended family members and friends were at the party, the Pasadena Public Health Department said in a news release, adding the event took place after the city issued a stay-at-home order in March.
One patient at the party was coughing and not wearing a face covering, health officials said, and other party guests were also not covering their face or social distancing.
"She was joking with people at the birthday party," Lisa Derderian, a spokeswoman for Pasadena, said of the woman who was coughing. "She said I may have Covid-19, and lo and behold, she did."
"It was selfish behavior that could have been avoided," Derderian told CNN.
Through contact tracing, investigators were able to confirm five Covid-19 cases traced to the party, all Pasadena residents.
"But we think five or six more party guests who live outside Pasadena May have been infected, because they showed symptoms of the virus," Derderian said. "They need to quarantine and eventually be tested."
Mostly Chinese returning from Russia. Russian cases are exploding. "Stable Genus" in charge of Russia... Somewhere there is a stable missing its genus.

NHK conducted an experiment to see how germs spread at a cruise buffet.
They applied fluorescent paint to the hands of 1 person and then had a group of 10 people dine.
In 30 min the paint had transferred to every individual and was on the faces of 3.

Was interesting. They also on Twitter wrote:I’ve landed in Hong Kong after flying from Paris CDG, via London Heathrow. I now have to wait ~8 hours before I get my #COVID19 test results and thus have ample time to tweet about my experience.
If I broke my quarantine, I could be jailed for up to 6 months and fined up to HK$25,000 (US$3,225). The HK government also encourages people to report quarantine breakers. I would be genuinely afraid of the public wrath if I were to step outside wearing my bracelet.

Yes, covered developments of potential treatments (antibodies etc.) and vaccines (RNA & DNA) as well as showing the kind of contact tracing that was instituted in Wuhan, with Nova's more scientific emphasis than you get in the mass media.

Try that and let us know how it turns out.
OWOSSO, Mich. — Armed members of the Michigan Home Guard stood outside Karl Manke's barbershop, ready to blockade the door if police arrived. They were determined to help Manke, 77, reopen his shop Monday, in defiance of state orders, and dozens joined them, wearing Trump sweatshirts and Trump cowboy hats and waving Trump flags.
