Needs to come back. I’m going to predict 30 million dead by the end of the year, seriously not looking good, uncontainable, looks highly contagious and high mortality rate.

thing is the death toll across the world is just past 1100. In the US alone it was being reported in December that there had already been 1300 deaths in the States as their "flu season" began.

This new virus, has an r0 of 2.6, that means on average 1 person with it will infect 2.6 others. Influenza has an r0 between 1.4-1.6.

this new virus has a mortality rate of 2.5% at the moment. Influenza has a mortality rate of 0.05%.

So this new one spreads faster, infects more and kills 50x more people it infects compared to seasonal influenza.

On top of that, this new one has currently puts 18% of people it infects in hospital.

Yeah, but only if you don’t cook it.

Can and have, there's thousands of them around here, it's as simple as walking out at sunset and sticking your hands out.

It got to 1000 in four weeks from 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024 so it’s doubling every 3 days? It’s slowing down but wait until it kicks off in a few 3rd world countries.

Im saying it’s already at 30 thousand in main land China. You don’t lock down whole cities , stop all industry. Close all transport for something that’s just a bad flu virus
