At the moment of talking, Cambodia has 109 cases, mostly imported. however, the whole country is very anxious with about only 50% traffic flow compare to before the pandemic. Schools, bars, Karaokes are ordered to close (restaurants and cafe still open) and our Prime Minister is consider to put the country under emergency state. Shops are closed or half closed. Almost all facilities place hand sanitizer and temperature thermometer in front of their shops. I'm OK with masks and hand-wash liquid but thermometer? Like what you have said, an infected person are infectious before temperature rise, so what's the use?

Using thermometer as visible tool to fight C19 is a joke.
Like using techniques that won war against trench warfare of 1916-1918
and using those techniques and trench warfare against DF26s , type 99 tanks, Type PCL191

Thinking and hoping that will work against C19.
And discarding a key weapon , aka wearing masks, any masks that is properly worn and used .

It's very strange that 100 sailors on board the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier are infected with Covid-19. Why is that?

It looks like the US carrier, USS Theodore Roosevelt, had officers infected with COVID before mid January. We can infer this from its schedule.

, the carrier left San Diego on January 17: "The Roosevelt and its associated battle group departed San Diego on Jan. 17 and was amid a deployment to the western Pacific when its first crew member was found to have COVID-19."

Unless it docked somewhere before that, then we must conclude that the carrier already had the virus when it left San Diego on Jan. 17th. And who knows how long the virus was kicking around in San Diego, and overlapping with the Wuhan timeline.

The US military has stopped publicaly reporting about its COVID cases. The virus may have circulated in the US military before anywhere else in the world. Present in San Diego in January, and before that, perhaps brought by US officers to Wuhan for the military games in October, in which five US officers had respiratory problems, and later infected the hotel works at the hotel where the US delegation stayed, and also infected the healthcare workers that treated them.

The USS Roosevelt I thought I heard was in Guam. If so then someone came on board with coronavirus. If it left Jan 17 from San Diego then it must have cross the Pacific and got it somewhere then.

I am not sure if I have mixed things up but didn't that carrier has a port call in Vietnam last month?

Can you explain how you infer that officers on board CVN-71 were infected before mid January? I'd like to explore this topic more. Here is CVN-71's deployment history in recent months:

For the past 20 years, researchers in the US have been warning about a how their healthcare system was unprepared for a pandemic (not enough hospital beds and ventilators). But CNN/FOX/MSNBC are not talking about this, because excess capacity (a fundamental requirement of disaster planning) goes against capitalistic principles, and MSM functions on capitalistic principles. Instead of informing people about systemic issues, FOX is attacking China, MSNBC is attacking both Trump and Sanders, and CNN is talking like this virus (which China has already handled) is basically the apocalypse.

I don't think that's a correct analysis. The US indeed has enough healthcare resources. The problem is it that she doesn't have a good public healthcare system.

Same as in Russia: rich people have enough doctors and medical ressources available, the poor people will die in large numbers.
