      where did you get this information? The current fatality rate is somewhere around 2%, but that estimate is probably too high because the total number of infected people is underreported, especially since there is a large number of people that become infected and only have a mild case and never go to the hospital.

      As far as treatment goes, I think it's true they don't have a recommended antiviral drug for it yet, but other than that I would assume treatment would be similar to SARS/MERS/severe influenza. Basically supportive care.

            Keep an eye on the Chinese auto industry (remember the old saying, "How GM/Ford/Chrysler go, so goes the country?")

            The Chinese (and US) auto markets stocked up on parts going into the new year specifically because of the plant shut downs that happen over Chinese New Year.

            Now that the holiday is over, if the Chinese plants dont resume normal capacity, it's going to start to show.

            US suppliers of parts have enough stock to get through February, as long as supplies resume by the end of the month. If the shutdowns drag into March, we're all fu**ed.

              About three hours old from NBC:

              China’s National Health Commission has so far confirmed more than 63,000 cases of COVID-19, the new name for the disease caused by the novel coronavirus, as of Friday morning.The current death toll, 1,380, represents a decrease in deaths previously reported in Hubei province.
              That's running about 2%, but as some noted, data is surely incomplete and inaccurate (if nothing else because of the real-time nature).

              That said, influenza and pneumonia caused ... 55,672 deaths in the US in 2017. I get that COVID-19 can go pandemic level, but to this point it's a piker compared to garden-variety flu in the US annually.

                When data is inaccurate, results are obviously flawed. You can have mis-diagnoses, under- or over-reporting of the actual virus, etc. Given that it's China, they could be very well saying "He died from the flu" or something, when in fact it's the virus.

                I'd be curious about China-only numbers, truthful numbers. The rest of the world seems to have been prepared for this, after the initial Chinese outbreak. Those deaths are obviously at a lower rate.

                  You said “If you get it you die”, which is far from true.

                    The only people I are pointing out fly deaths are morons. Mostly because it ignores so many key aspects of this outbreak.

                          I will agree with this.

                          Over the last few years, we've had to face new strains of stuff we've never seen before. With the flu, well, it's the flu, just a slightly stronger version of it at times.

                            That’s not right. There are several (dozens? Hundred?) strains of flu and we’re still not entirely sure which one caused Spanish flu. We have some really good guesses but no one knows for sure.

                              I shall amend to different strains, rather than stronger versions.

                              We see it as the flu...then we figure out how to treat it.

                              Avian...*** is this? SARS, Swine Flu, Ebola, and now this. I bet in a couple years, there'll be another "um, we're not sure what this is" different virus.

                                Avian and swine were just mutations of “regular” influenza.

                                Bad bird flu is H5N1 and swine was H1N1 if memory serves me right.
