We have updated the article:
Now including travel advice by Dutch and US embassies, a hotline for visa questions from the National Immigration Administration, a link to international news sources that don't require a proxy and as yet no verified news on the closure of land borders to Laos and Vietnam.
Good night everyone :)
Hi all,
We understand the need for verified news very well, which is why we have added the latest article, which we will continue to update.
Seeing the rampant fake news and rumors spreading like wildfire in wechat groups we have decided to be very strict with moderation on the forum.
A good point was made about not being able to access verified international news sources without proxy. We will in this case allow the copying of text verbatim.
Thank you for sharing your verified information from trusted sources, refraining from fear mongering and for keeping it civilized and level headed.
Please only share Yunnan and Kunming related info, thank you.

***topic tidied up***
Hearsay and 'news' without sources is not welcome on the forum.
We are working on an article that will be updated live with VERIFIED news with regards to hospitals, transportation etc.
Thank you all for staying level headed and keep your chin up.
