That is a lot longer than I expected.

Well now that are confirmed cases in the USA we will know in about 3-4 weeks it will be either too late, seen something off Twitter where worst case scenario it could kill 10-65 million people. So since it originated in a Chinese chemical warfare lab probably worse than the flu people who have it just fall flat on their face! I don't trust our government that much anymore!

Don't know why we can't temporarily ban all flights into the USA originating from China until they get a handle on it.

Seems like a no brainer too me.

Probably a good idea to dip anything from China in a pot of boiling water before use.

If you shut down every flight and ship leaving China; you would run out of TVs, shoes, fishing lures, clothes, computers, calculators, golf clubs, etc, etc. it would shut down every Walmart, Dollar Tree, and Big Lots

The effect on the economy would be staggering. Transporting, marketing, and selling goods mostly from China employs the highest percentage of working people in the US.

Some people would adapt, but many would panic

For most, money makes the world go around and for many, their way of life depends on cheap Chinese labor and goods

How long does it last on a package of fishing lures shipped from China?

For fishing lure packaging I recommend rubbing alcohol and/or shine

So far the virus seems far less lethal than SARS which has about a 10% mortality rate. Coronavirus mortality is running at about 4%, unless the Chinese are lying about the number dead or infected. (which is entirely possible). The virus would be long since be dead on anything that travels via ocean. Airfreight could be a possible mode of transportation. The virus is already here in the states in at least three individuals, all of whom traveled here from Wuhan via plane. The scariest part to me is that the virus is spreadable long before symptoms arise. I'd be stunned if other people on the airplane didn't also contract the virus. Those folks are presumably still walking around and unknowingly spreading the virus at this moment.

On the whole though, I'm 2/10 nervous about this one.

Safe hand washing technique. Number one failure is ppl turn off that dirty water handle with their clean hands.... thus, contaminating their hands.

I don't think China tells the truth about anything. That said it doesn't seem like it will be a big deal here, based on the number of cases so far. Most of the deaths are older people that have preexisting conditions contributing to their death.


So at 4% kill rate, if you get give it to as many people as possible so your survival chances improve?
