News flash stupid travelers of the world. Leave your fresh/frozen foods at home. Nobody needs to travel with dumplings.

The edict from above now seems to be to let the foreigners through asap !

Do customs speak to the quarantine office here or is it too much trouble to interrogate the Chinese?

This case will be one of many and an outbreak will be an event in the. Ear future.

Either way a policy change is in order.....
