    I just read that this disease is usually mild for most except if the person infected is +70, has a heart condition, high blood pressure and/or diabetes. Bingo! I fit all four parameters and my wife has three plus severe immune disjunction. Looking for a cave.

    The data linked by Curt indicates a mortality rate of 3.4%. I read somewhere this morning it is closer to 1%---who knows----if you are one of "the" percent it is a bad story.

    That's not the kind of Bingo we want to see. But, I'm betting the two of you are on top of it. Kudos.

    From today's NYT:

    The head of the World Health Organization said on Tuesday that the global mortality rate for Covid-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, was 3.4 percent, a figure that primarily reflects the outbreak in China, where the vast majority of cases have been detected.

    Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the organization’s director general, said in a news conference in Geneva that Covid-19 was deadlier than the seasonal flu but did not transmit as easily. “Globally, about 3.4 percent of reported Covid-19 cases have died,” Dr. Tedros said. “By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1 percent of those infected.

    The ratio is derived from and dependent upon the raw data supplied by a notoriously unreliable source (Red China), so take it for what it is worth.

    From the Harrisburg Pa Patriot News:

    WASHINGTON (AP) — How deadly is the coronavirus that exploded from China? The answer reflects a hard reality about fast-moving outbreaks: As cases pop up in new places, the first to get counted are the sickest.

    A straight count of deaths reported worldwide suggests the new virus may be more deadly than the flu, according to the head of the World Health Organization.

    “Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

    But the U.N. agency is reporting a number that health authorities know will keep fluctuating — and it's far too soon to predict whether it ultimately winds up worse than flu or about the same.

    Also note that almost all of the recovery cases are in China. I have zero faith in some of those States providing real information. The margin of error has to be pretty generous here.

    I now know of two first-hand experiences with the quarantine. Both cruise ship related.

    More on the original theme of the thread — was the origin and source of Covid-19 in a Chinese government lab?

    Of course, you can always buy into the official Chinese media propaganda that the U.S. Army seeded it into Wuhan, if you are of that ilk.

    With that many people, I guess the lessons that may have been learned after SARS really aren't that important

    Their markets are an experience, you might think you are at zoo. The reptile house is huge with all kinds of snakes, turtles, frogs and lizards, all very much alive.

    Disturbing for sure! It gave a link for ways to stop the farming/avoid the viruses etc... at the end of the video. How in the heck are we going to stop anything that China is doing? It can't include tariffs Dave's post in one of these threads blames Trump for the spread of the viruses because he won't drop the tariffs, Not slamming Dave I don't know how tariffs work either way so I don't know if he's right, wrong or still bashing Trump. And how many Americans are really connected to the China wet markets? Looking at those thousand bears in those tiny cages and the way these animals are kept makes me want to join PETA, almost.
    This is your mind on drugs!
