Students Quarantined in University As Epidemic Unfolds

“For the past few days, university students in the Southern Chinese resort town of Hainan have been quarantined on the grounds of the Hainan University campus with little food or water. Apparently there’s been an outbreak of cholera, and the local officials dealt with it Resident Evil style: Lock everybody in, give them no information, and see if they survive. But one woman student has been blogging about the ongoing ordeal, posting pictures and giving status updates several times a day.”

This is kind of spooky, when you think about it. Makes me wonder how Canada would fare if we got hit with an epidemic.
