^ First human-to-human infection outside Asia.
Reactions, and the authorities over here, are quite relaxed. Warnings are given that surgical masks are neither needed, nor are meant to provide cover to those wearing them, they are meant to protect the others from the person wearing the mask. The only real fear and risk is, that the virus mutates further.

Its not looking too good, But I expect it will end up on similar scale to SARS
There is nothing to gain from over or under estimating it at this point (on a personal level anyway) |

If it does not mutate, it will be a so-la-la story that gets desperately milked by media to win more views. The common seasonal cold or the winter temperature is more a health concern and kills more people, tbh.
But it might be a good test run for authorities and hospitals for the day when a real dangerous virus pandemic starts to rage.

Second point, no chance here in the UK our NHS can not cope with seasonal flu outbreaks. Come the day when we have a real nasty one the UK will be finished. Question, has there been any deaths reported outside China? Not seen any news here if there is any.

Problem is, with China, they are most likely severely under reporting the numbers. You'll know it's a real problem if by Sunday there are 40,00 reported infected.

Came home a few hours ago after work, turn on my tv and can see there's a breaking news
The headlines "Danish citizen is examined for possible corona infection. The patient has been isolated Hopefully it's false alarm, as it was with two Swedish citizens some days back. Edit As I hoped, it was false alarm End of Edit Markus Last edited by mapuc; 01-28-20 at 05:30 PM. |

GOOD NEWS: IT IS A FAIRLY STABLE NON-MUTATING VIRUS AND UNLIKE ITS PREDESSESSER, SARS, WHICH KILLED 10% (745 DEATHS W0RLDWIDE)THIS ONE IS ONLY KILLING 3%... NOW IF ALL THE AMERICANS FLEEEING WUHAN WOULD JUST STAY PUT INSTEAD OF COMING TO SAN FRANCISCO, I'D FEEL BETTER....note: THAT PLAN HAS NOW BEEN DIVERTED TO ANCHORAGE ALASKA

All those measures that Aktungbby's article talks about are being taken for a virus that can be passed on from one person to the next person by people that don't even show the symptoms yet, duh!
The Wuhan area is in a lockdown situation for over 50 million people ... California is only 38 million people

Now in an effort to quell the chances of mass panic and riot comes news of hope for a vaccine.
