Personally I think this is more dangerous than SARS or MERS, it seems to be spreading much faster.

This poll sucks

Hi thx for calling in I was gonna ask you how the protests are going in France. You guys still getting your faces bashed in by riot police?

Ok I guess

SARS is a potential symptom of coronavirus not a disease or itself.

Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome. It's bad bears bears.

This is the same as the Wuhan Flu people have been talking about in China?

It is causing symptoms ranging from cold to flu to SARS.

We are kind of waiting for it at the hospital. Flue season so far has been mild.

Our Flua kill a ton of people every year but we are more familiar with hearing influenza than coronavirus or Wuhan so we aren't as worried.

Bottom line: get your flu shots, on America, and in China.

this is a detail butt...

17 people who died from the virus range from 48 to 89, with an average age of 73

What's the mode and median? How big is the data set? Is it sufficiently randomized so that the Central Limit Theorem can kick in?

What is your confidence interval?

Seems pretty serious to me based on the news blips I've heard. One said the WHO was still convened where they analyze the scope of the outbreak and recommend remediation steps. While they were having said meeting, Chinese officials took initiative and began shutting down population flow in the outbreak area. The Chinese regime is notorious for under-reporting numbers like these, so I wouldn't be surprised if actuals were much higher. Not sure if the hype about a 10 day hospital is note worthy since it was pre-planned and the foundation work looks like it started pre-outbreak.

I've heard of a few infected in the US already.

I think its a bigger issue because its already spread international, it's a newer virus form, and the Chinese expedited remediation beyond what WHO would have recommended.

To some people 1% death rate is low, but if its 1% death rate to a 200 million exposed population. eek

Based on what I heard, it has a 2-week timeframe which it can be spread, and it is also spread airborne.

So could be an issue. However, I also heard that the flu itself actually likely kills more people than this. But who knows.
