It’s not true.

He’s in “stable” condition, and not on a ventilator.

No. He's in intensive care. I'm sure if he died, it would have been announced in every major newspaper.

People of Wuhan allowed to leave after lockdown

Quote:
The months-long lockdown in the city of Wuhan in China's Hubei province - where the coronavirus pandemic started - has been lifted.

Anyone who has a "green" code on a widely used smartphone health app is now allowed to leave, for the first time since 23 January.

Train, road and rail connections have now been re-established.

It comes after China reported no deaths on Tuesday, the first time since it began publishing figures.

Last month, when Wuhan reported its first full week with no new infections, shopping malls were re-opened. Some people in "epidemic-free" residential compounds have also been allowed to leave their homes for two hours.
From Wednesday, approved residents will be able to use public transport if they are also to provide a QR code for scanning. The code is unique for each person and links to their confirmed health status.

People engaged in making medical supplies and other daily goods will be allowed to return to work. Other industries that impact national or global supply chains will also be able to re-open.

Just a tip from the Lizards. :P

Does it assimilate those already assimilated by the Borg?

Yes.It has mutated for that.The Borg cube will now be a giant Corona virus sphere bumping through the cosmos.

Wow! A Borg-cube-sized coronavirus assimilating everything it meets! That's something!

He’s in intensive care, but is in stable condition. He was put into intensive care as a precaution.

He is receiving oxygen therapy at times, but is not on a ventilator.

Oh man. My dad recorded it from TV, Dawn News, and sent it to us on Whatsapp. That news channel needs to fire somebody for either not having good reading comprehension or spreading false things intentionally.... :(

When I googled tp see whether it was true I found out Boris Johnson's grandfather was Turkish. And his great-grandfather was involved in politics.

I wonder whether my brother knows since he knows everything about Turkey for some reason.

Was the turkey named that to make fun of Turks? Which came first?

Oh never mind I found out how that word originated for the bird. But funnily enough in Turkish they call it 'hindi' ('Indian')... I would call it something else, more descriptive of its odd looks.

Turkey has nothing to do with turkey the bird, whatsoever.

It means “land of the Turks.” The Turks have been calling themselves “Turks” since at least the 6th century AD.

The Ottoman Empire was known amongst common folks as “Turkey.”

The bird's name came from the traders' origins. But in other languages like French they name it after India...

Yep.

Have you been to Turkey?

I was there once for a couple of hours (in Istanbul, European side). I went to the Blue Mosque.

I wonder...How much would it take to solve this? Surely organizations like WWF, PETA etc can afford to donate if this is made common knowledge?
I know many ordinary people would be happy to contribute if there was information available for donations. It would be something that could go viral.

Yes, M.D. from Duke Medical School. His specialty is eye surgery.
