    57,000 deaths from flu in US in 2019. About 60 worldwide so far with this. I think we can pump the breaks a bit in the hysteria for a while.

    The world press love nothing  more  than to try and scare the shit  out of already nervous  people at any opportunity. 
    Its easy now with social media. 
    I remember  mad cow disease 
    Bird flu
    Swine flu was all the  same. The end is nigh

    When China is quickly building hospitals for this perhaps there is something they are not quite telling everyone.

    Yes, it feels like this virus is worse than for example SARS. Having a whole hospital with patients infected with only one kind of disease feels extreme.
    The ground of the problem was the horrible animal markets selling wild captured animals.

    Why do the Chinese  have to mess about with animals.  Its always the start of new diseases.  Always from there. 
    Like bird flu from sucking the blood from  a choking chickens throat.  Ffs why
