How long before games get cancelled if the situation worsens? Could get a bit chaotic in determining promotion and relegation if there are too many.
Edit: Unless they play in empty stadiums Iike they do in Cardiff I suppose. [Post edited 25 Feb 2020 11:33]

What does he work on?
Ebola is a different beast-haemorrhagic virus with exceptionally high mortality. Influenza is more of a risk from seasonal human influenza than from animals. The risk with Avian Influenza is a species jump of a High Pathogenicity variant. I would still consider influenza a greater risk of a high mortality pandemic than a coronavirus like the current CoViD19, SARS or MERS (the last of which is poorly transmitted).
Anyway, we won't need to worry about viruses once we get pandemic multi resistant bacteria [Post edited 25 Feb 2020 16:55]

"What does he work on?"
His thesis was something to do with flu but don't ask me the detail! He currently works for an international charity whose mission is to bring together researchers and government agencies to better deal with threats such as flu, ebola and the like, but there is a wider humanitarian aspect to their work as well. | |

No. But you shouldn't drive. You need to get on public transport and go straight to A&E. | | | |

Is it ok to carry on sneezing all over everybody I meet? | |

Yes, infecting people with the virus will help with their immune system. It's a bit like giving them a flu jab. | | | |

Whilst influenza may be responsible for more deaths than Corona Virus (to date), the mortality rate is fluctuating significantly from country to country. In China its currently about 3%, in Iran its up to around 13%, if that mortality rate is replicated in other less developed countries it will be devastating. | | | |

Going from a promising finding to a workable therapeutic is a big challenge which needs (largely absent) industrial backing.
WW2 was a big driver in turning Fleming’s mould into a therapeutic by Chain and Florey | | | |

Oh for f%cks sake......life has to go on....please stop this ridiculous nonsense,,,,it's so mor£nic that it beggars belief. And do you know why? It's us all being too PC.....scared to do this....scared to do that......THIS WILL BLOW OVER LIKE EVERY OTHER SITUATION.
Example: We had a 55 year old infected....on a cruise ship...everyone went mad.....he returned home and now is 100% healthy...having been certified as having Cornviris.....ffs
So if he was one of the first to get it......at 55...and is now perfectly healthy.....walking around East SUSSEX....
Why the fck are you all getting so het up......
6 months down the line it'll be f&cking history...I'm in the betting industry ...ffs....that's why Trump gets in...that why Boris gets in..that's why people short sell ..we are all thick...and boy...do we show it....
YOU ARE ALL ACTING LIKE DIMWITS.......ITS WHAT THE NARRATIVE IS,,,,,ITS THE MEDIA NARRATIVE.....AND WE MUST ALL FOLLOW IT
THE CITY...WALL ST...... WILL BE CREAMING THEMSELVES...THEY WILL KNOW....THE MASSES WONT.... SELL ON THE DOWNSIDE.....AND THEY'LL BE BUYING ON THE UPSIDE
And the masses will be flapping like morons......lovely [Post edited 25 Feb 2020 22:38]

Well, a colleague I have known for 20 years has close to 25 years experience of coronavirus research and fully respect suggests this is a different beast to SARS or MERS. Will it kill millions-
Highly unlikely (probably have to wait for a pandemic flu). Will it kill tens or hundreds of thousands- quite possibly. Probably given its relative transmissibility the most important emerging disease this century so far. Something we should take seriously enough to be prepared for as a country or individual. I have asthma, so could well be life threatening for me. [Post edited 25 Feb 2020 22:48]

Asthma, same here. Went down the drug shop yesterday to re-enrol in the budesonide club. Takes 6 months apparently for the low dosage steroid to kick in though, so they say. Time will tell. | | | |

Duterte, being the dictator he is, closed flights from China down almost immediately.
Dictators can have positive influences after all...
A good Filipino friend of mine said that there was a lot of negative pressure on him to overturn the policy but he wouldn't budge.
Iran have serious issues by the looks of it. | | | |

The epi Centre of the outbreak in China has a bacterial testing plant.
Just saying. | |

Aye, because after the last Sars outbreak they realised that they needed to prepare for a future novel viral outbreak. They area is situated near the same type of market that was the source of previous type events and it also has a respected Chinese University nearby...
