* I didn't mean at the same time.... in total.

But the effects are yet to be seen. I'm not saying we shouldn't be concerned, but the level of concern and levels of hysteria is more worrying. It's a hypothesis at the minute and I'll admit that we won't know for a bit longer, but I suspect this will fizzle out just like MERS, SARS and swine flu.

I’ve seen some crazy people on Facebook think it’s caused by 5G testing
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I saw that as well. And the "vaccine" will eventually involve inserting microchips into our bloodstreams, so we can be monitored and, yes, killed at the push of a button.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think huge numbers of people can be killed at the push of a button anyway...

The filter button?

The Geo Check-In button

It's the enemies of the US that seem to have got this the worst (China and Iran) with Italy being an anomaly...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So much information flying round at the minute that it's very difficult to separate the good from the bad. I read somewhere the other day, that this particular jouno had it on good authority that this originated in America first and not China. Either way, it's a crazy situation and I still think this is an overreaction but we'll see.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I dont really see how it can be an overreaction given the numbers involved and how contagious it is.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What numbers are those?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The amount of people who contract it. It's not all about who will die directly from it. Look at the health care system in Italy and the impact it is having on availability of treatment to people sick from corona and other illnesses.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I provided number above for a similar virus in flu and that in 2018 killed far more people than what we are talking about here and we've not even discussed numbers for other countries yet. So it is my belief that the hysteria and overreaction is not justified. Yes we should we make sure we are hygienic, stop the spread, but isolating a whole country of 16 million people is a little over the top. Just my opinion.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Once again. I'm not talking about direct deaths. 70% of the population dont get the flu at the same time with 1 in 10 needing serious treatment/ hospitalization. It's the impact on the health care system and the knock on effect with everything else that is the concern.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How many of this 1 in 10 recover ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Most. Not my point though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How many people do we know have the virus in Italy ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

About 12,500, I believe.

I don't think i've known that many people in my life total, let alone in Italy. 2 or 3, tops.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes it could. Those with respiratory issues are more at risk of complications. The figures that show a higher death rate among men so far has been linked to the high number of men in relation to women in China that smoke.

Fair play to that lady. And the nurses and doctors:

"Ms Zhang gradually recovered after being given round-the-clock care and nutrition therapy sessions,"

I think there's a genuine concern that if too many people get it this level of care won't be possible.

Totally agree with that.

Not sure if he's joking, but I have heard they plan to get everyone of the ship, clean it, then load it up with new staff and passengers before heading up to Canada. It's crazy.

You couldn't pay me enough to get on that boat. I would begrudge getting on any of those disease carriers as it is. A guy on TV here the other day was saying how even in a normal scenario they are a breeding ground for germs
