Well a virus is technically dead outside of a living organism, right doc?

And I agree with the banana Q thing. Also with other hot street food.

I remember a visit to Thailand. We ate in what looked like a squatter area type carinderia beside a tourist-attraction river.
I was surprised to see a Japanese family eating because it really looked like a dirty place to eat similar to many in the Philippines. But they ordered a hot soup probably to minimize exposure to harmful microorganisms.

How about the other staff, handling / processing different things inside the resto, sir? The cashier? The dishwasher? The busboys? The connection does not begin and end with the cook.

USA health officials are really serious this time -- they are not treating the situation with kid gloves anymore. No more politicking like what the WHO is doing.

"A top official at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned of the potential for “severe” disruptions to daily life in the event of the coronavirus becoming a pandemic, as authorities prepare for person-to-person transmission in the US.

Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the CDC, said there was a need for “new strategies” tailored to local circumstances. “The current global circumstances suggest it is likely this virus will cause a pandemic,” she said."



"Individuals should think about stockpiling food for at least three or four days — or ideally two weeks, in case there are lockdowns, he added."

the manner the person posted,

Well, it did come from a "reputable" news outlet - the South China Morning Post, FWIW. Not some tabloid trash news outlet.

Maybe SCMP wanted a "shock" value to the headline? Something that will "grab" the reader/viewer who most of the time, don't care, or don't have the time, to read or watch the whole article/video.

or,
sometimes, even those with better command of the english language, make questionable calls, without their realization.

Oh by the way, if they did not mention the job description, don't you think readers would conclude the journalist / news outlet is "hiding" or "protecting" something? So I say, it's good they mentioned the job description. It's just part of their job to mention it. It's being responsible, IMO.
