You want me to list all the diseases in the recent past they scare tactic
with "it may stick with you for life" of course, no actual health specialists
says that, just the media, and karen.
Im waiting still to see an explosion of cases. Been in the US about 4
incubation cycles now, during flu season, when people are most asceptic. I like
watchong bloviating over nothingburgers, gets my old juices flowing.

That’s not a good track record.

Don't forget that there are dozens, maybe hundreds, maybe even
thousands of corona viruses in circulation. One of the issues of "curing" the
common cold is because corona viruses mutate like crazy. I am now firmly of the
opinion that the COVID-19 virus has been circulating longer than anyone knew,
and it's been written off as just another cold. We shall see.

Hard to judge fatality rate when new cases are just starting to

they haven’t been testing. On the other hand, maybe the people haven’t had it
long enough to die yet.
Maybe these mystery cases ate bat or pangolin. Just kidding.
But you almost have to wonder if there have always been a certain number of
people with this or a related coronavirus and we are only finding out because
we are testing now. No, that sounds like a conspiracy theory. More likely
someone who travelled to Italy or Iran sneezed on them. With the virus living
for up to 9 days on surfaces, could money become a vehicle for transmission? I
know lots of people use cards or their phones to pay for everything, but this
could be the death of paper money and coins. Think where that stuff has been.
But on the other hand, the virus is spreading like crazy in mostly cashless
countries.
Oh, and I saw that a patient in Washington state has died. No
details.

Interesting that the fatalities in China are around 3.4%, yet
the fatalities outside China are only .1%.
Listening to the news this morning, it's become apparent that
outside of China, no one was prepared, and that they really have not been
testing. Problems with test kits; like they were not working correctly, and
secondly, no one was testing.
I believe (now) that this virus has already spanned the globe,
and the major saving grace is that 80% of the cases are mild or asymptomatic.
it is, after all, just another corona virus. New or not, we deal with viruses
like it all the time.

From WHO statement yesterday:
“Outside China, there are now 4351 cases in 49 countries, and
67 deaths.
Since yesterday, Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania, Netherlands and
Nigeria have all reported their first cases. All these cases have links to
Italy.
24 cases have been exported from Italy to 14 countries, and 97
cases have been exported from Iran to 11 countries.
The continued increase in the number of cases, and the number
of affected countries over the last few days, are clearly of concern.”
Thanks, Italy and Iran.
China numbers are looking promising, but Italy 300 new cases
and South Korea 900. Number of countries with confirmed cases is around 60.
I see the photos from places like China and S. Korea with
soldiers spraying public places with disinfectant, and the steps takeout food
places and stores are taking to avoid transmission, and I wonder if that is
feasible here.
Meanwhile S. Korea has tested 35,000 people, the US has tested
400. Shortage of test kits, and guidelines to only test people who have
travelled to China. If you can believe the Internet (stupid question) Hong
Kong is even testing pets. We don’t even have enough kits to test people.
