Evidence for mask-wearing??? Could be many other variables, such as prepared governments or individualistic vs socialized societies? #casespercapita

The US is staying between S. Korean and Italian death rates but trending up toward where China was. Following guidelines can keep it down! #covid_19

Everyone quarantined pets when we thought a Hong Kong dog tested positive. The World Health Organization (WHO) proved dogs do not get it and people released their dogs from seclusion. Moral: WHO let the dogs out! #covid19 #humoristhebestmedicine

This is containment in Hong Kong. The boys and I were doing PE games on the podium when an estate employee came by and checked our temperatures. #justchecking #coronaviruschronicles #onlinelearning

Hk vs. USA Covid-19 cases. HK has experience from SARS and so everyone quickly followed containment policies. Macau even just discharged their last case with no deaths. Watching news, govt announcements, CDC from the US it appears they are still on a learning curve, and thus the exponential growth of cases. Hope it becomes a logistic curve soon. #covid-19 #maybemasks #prayforhealing #prayforleaders

The boys and I explored the caves real pirate Cheung Po Tsai used to hide his loot. We found no loot (but there were some masks!). #cheungchau #piratesofthesouthchinasea

Macau is a Special Administration Region (SAR) of China like Hong Kong, but was a Portuguese colony instead. It is scheduled to fully belong to China in 2049. This is China’s People’s Liberation Army building in Macau, right next to the Venetian, to maintain its protection over the region. #macau2020
