I wonder if Russia has any over there?
I haven't heard of any cases in Eastern Europe yet.
There was a case reported in Croatia yesterday.

No. I believe it escaped - or was released - from a laboratory.

Romania, Georgia and North Macedonia have 1 case each.

The rest Eastern Europe has not (yet) been affected.

Very strange imo!

Not a bit strange when you consider that North Koreans are literally captives.

Totally agree, Tabs.

Remember the Salisbury poisonings not long ago?

I feel sure there is much we are not being told..

No. I don't, anyway.

Blaming bats, snakes, or any other creature is very convenient being as they can't speak out and defend themselves.

I don't think I can make it any simpler but just for you I will repeat the two graphs with their clear labels:







I hope that helped you.

<Sigh>

No smoke and mirrors just your total lack of understanding of scale.

78000 cases in China ie 96% of global cases

3300 cases in the rest of the world. ie 4% of global cases.

Here it is as a nice picture to help you grasp the relationship.
