A tourist in France has died from the disease, and here in Ireland there's currently a blanket ban on mail going to and from China.

And it looks like that cruise ship off the coast of Japan has carriers, some of whom are American.

Do we have the exact amount of those that died in China?

We have the official numbers that don't even make up for the 10% of the actual estimate.

Just estimates at this point, as originally it was believed that China was seriously fudging the numbers, ***** that they are.

WHO says it's 46,000 cases, with just over 1300 deaths.

They say it's airborn.



Containment is a lost cause at this point. Not to be an alarmist, but when they say 'Don't panic", it's time to start noticing that big red button.

Oh, shit... if it's really airborn then we're probably all f***ed. Can you cite a source that says it is airborn? Was it the WHO?

I wasn't planning on buying one of those air filter masks but if it's truly airborn then I probably will.

That’s a pretty high rate when this virus is not even half a year old.

Where'd you see this?

Last I heard, it wasn't fully airborne.

Aerosol is believed to be a method.


I see now from other sources this isn't confirmed.

As someone who doesn't get the flu shot every year for autism reasons and who was not one of the 61,000 people who died from the seasonal flu in 2017 in the U.S. alone, I have to say that this virus that's killed 1,500 people mostly in China, is absolutely panic-inducing for extremely valid, statistically logical reasons.


Buy gold. Buy guns. Burn your neighbors. Avoid vaccines. It's the only way to protect yourself somehow.

I've said pretty much the same thing, as well, but with far less sarcasm. Your version is better.

The snideness and sarcasm aside, there's two views that are being conflated and that's not fair.

View One: The kneejerker. "The virus has killed almost two thousand people, we're doomed! We're all gonna die!" This view is silly

View Two: Is more of a concern that we need to be vigilant amd not dismissive of this because the Coronavirus apparently has a higher mortality rate than Influenza and spreads about as easily, which gives it the potential for a massive death count. This view is not silly

I've seen US cancer rates between .04 and 5 percent.


Last I heard figures for world mortality if uncontained were estimated at 3 percent, which is not insignificant given the amount of people.

it is more fragile than Flu though Rob, so a pandemic is less likely (let's hope)
