Corona virus .....
Its from animals therefore humans have no natural immunity .We have to develop immunity .
Spreads easily ,via touch or air transmission,not really sure at this stage .
3% mortality (Influenza less than 1%)
13-15% very sick ,usually the aged and immune compromised patients like cardiac problems,diabetes etc.
It is likely to spread more ,with more cases worldwide and more deaths .
Economic implications world wide is clear to see already .
Normal sugical masks do not help much ,its does not filter a virus .It does however,lessen spread from an infected person .
Prevent exposure to people,the best you can do ...malls,restaurants etc .
On a side note and my personal opinion,the believe the numbers will be higher at this stage .I believe goverments are down plaiyng the numbers and not every one infected has been confirmed tested .
