"But given that good old fashioned flu kills literally hundreds of thousands a year, on the great scheme of things ... it it a biggie? Discuss." I think its down to the extremity of the virus strain. Flu viruses attack the both respiratory and immune systems. This one acts much quicker when it sets in. Two week incubation period though. Any of us could have it already and not know. | |||

"It was only a matter of time. And not being funny with the heavily dense population of the world, its mother nature telling us to fuck off as were killing her world. I'm sorry for all those affected but it's like the film doomsday, heavily packed places and a virus ravages the population. " I (the husband) agrees with you. It's the same with earthquakes and tsunamis. Always happen is over populated countries. I'm my eyes it's nature's way of controlling it. That's just my 50p's worth | |||

" My suspicion is that countries with reasonably decent health care systems should be ok. The problem will really develop if the virus gets into countries with less well established health care. | |||

For your own sake as well as for the sake of those that flip when someone starts a panic. Over the centuries virus' that begin in animals cross to humans and kill hundreds or thousands..... This virus will do its best to spread. A bit like Sapiens slowly eradicating all other animals. It will run its course and scientists will eventually find a vaccine. Yes take precautions and yes hope you don't get infected but nothing has killed more people that traffic accidents. Why not start a panic about that instead? | |||

The tremblor that his Mosquito lake in Alaska didn't kill anyone but then the area is sparsely populated.... maybe the 300 inhabitants had some friends over. | |||

"It will all depend if it becomes a pandemic flu or not Spanish flu in 1920 killed 50 million possibly more. If the coronavirus did the same with the increased world population as it is now, you can see why it's a scary prospect " It is a scary prospect. There were some 500 million people infected. So if my figures and your figures are correct then approx one tenth of those infected died. Some stats put the deaths at nearer 20 million. There's also arguments that say a lot of deaths attributed to Spanish Flu were not actually from the flu but ANY respiratory death. Medicine and sanitation has advanced a lot. Still.......... Here's hoping there's a quick end to it. | |||

"No one seems to realise that the Coronavirus reporting is a geopolitical campaign to demean and isolate China; it is weaponized hysteria. Meanwhile influenza spreads around the world in yearly outbreaks, resulting in about three to five million cases of severe illness and about 290,000 to 650,000 deaths. There are something like 30,000 to 60,000 flu deaths in the USA every year - I see no hysterical reporting on that. Quelle suprise." I'd considered something similar but its not yet fully considered. I'm considering it a 'social experiment' at the moment...... a great opportunity to practise lockdown in preparation...... just an unsubstantiated theory so far. | |||

There are something like 30,000 to 60,000 flu deaths in the USA every year - I see no hysterical reporting on that. Quelle suprise." I completely disagree and find it troublesome that anyone would have this very unsubstantial opinion. Every year, health care agencies and the world health organization determines which flu strains are high strain and markets different vaccines to be made and distributed to all countries around the world, of which are free of charge. Everyone knows this as flu season; as well there are handwashing stations, wipes, countless advertisements and articles directed to the public to keep sanitary and avoid contact. How is this not "hype" and how is this not "globalized attention" that is not centralized to any country, region or geopolitical climate. It has taken years and years and years of effort to even garner the attention it needs and now it is finally making sense to people - vaccines, handwashing, staying home when you are sick saves fucking lives. And if that not hyped up enough I do not know what is. The populations in china or southeast Asia far outweigh any population centers anywhere else on the planet; millions of people travel through Hong Kong, for instance, who will have all been within a mile of some of the most famous fish markets in the world. Those fish markets are linked up to other markets across China with merchants who can easily travel back and forth daily across that coastline. One cough from one infected person can easily hit over a thousand persons within minutes before it dissipates into the humidity. Those persons infected, just one has to be on a junk boat to Hong Kong. And that person will arrive in one of the most densely populated areas in the world. And that person will cough. We should care about it being in China. As they ship everything, almost every fucking thing in their daily lives, at some point will make it's way though those ports of call in China. So it isn't just mass hysteria to demonize China; Amazon, Sony, Apple, PepsiCo just to name a few would be bankrupt within days if they could not get their ships to move out of there. | |||

"Does anyone know what the actual mortality rate is for those who contract the virus? I suspect it’s pretty low if you’re fairly healthy - but I’d like to know for sure! X" Iv just seen on the news they think it's about 10% it only seems to be deadly in those who are very elderly, have an existing condition or immune compromised. So a little like the "normal" flu. | |||

any virus spreads and causes pandemic in china/asia as they live & work in cramped proximity from each other and typically have very low immune systems.
Its just another virus/flu which effects the weak, elderly & ill and marginally effects anyone else. | |||

What happens when so many people have it that the hospitals overflow and they can't treat everyone? What's the mortality rate then? Before you answer that remember that our hospitals can't even handle a busy weekend without children lying on the floor... | |||

It would be interesting to know what the ratio of hospitals & doctors to population is now compared to back then, given the closure of hospitals and clinics. There are now 17 000 recorded infections meaning there are probably about 100 000 actual infections which means this virus is now impossible to contain. | |||

"Mheh, just stock up on Dettol wipes, it states on the packaging that is kills Human Coronavirus. The more cynical of me would wonder how long this dangerous new virus has been around if Dettol wipes can kill it." The issue is that is is a new strain. It is an unknown, it doesn't automatically mean that detol can kill it. It may have mutated to be immune to detol. It is just highly contagious, and the more heavily populated areas it will spread quickly. Which is exactly what we have been seeing. With that also said, it doesn't mean that detol won't work when cleaning surfaces. Bottom line is generally the only people at risk of death are the same people who are at risk from all other diseases and viruses - babies and children, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems. Slight potential risk to already healthy people (just like with most other viruses) is that the actual virus won't kill you but other infections etc while your immune system is resting after fighting off corona. Business as usual people! | |||

"Wake up people, I keep hearing x amount of people die every year from flue virus. “ They have a cure for that and measures in place “. This virus no measures in place and no vaccine for at least 18 months. So when they tell you not to be concerned, “ be concerned be very concerned “." I'm with you on this one. People seem to think that it's: A) Not coming to the UK B) That it isn't a dangerous virus. Several problems with that. They are quoting a mortality rate which is something one only does at the end of an epidemic. CFR is a much more accurate representation of how lethal this flu is. Then the figure goes from 2% to 18%. This figure will not get better once hospitals overflow. With 60 000 cases it is now impossible to contain and in so many countries one can't just ban flights from every country. So people who poo pooing this virus and calling concern over it "scaremongering", need to consider the maths and the extent of how bad this could get. | |||
