The current influenza virus does not have the potential to kill hundreds of millions of people and crash the entire global economy. Further, the influenza virus is pandemic right now, literally exists in every community and infects at least 10% of the world's population. If this coronavirus were as widespread as that, it would infect up to 60% of the population and kill at least 10% of those infected based on the numbers we are seeing.

Keep posting stupid shit and ranting about how people preparing for the worst are "panicking", I guess. I hope it is contained, but I am going to laugh my ass off if it is not contained and you run out of food. Maybe update us with rants about the situation in the FEMA camp.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself. I'm here trying to help people and help the economy and you are spreading racist nonsense about how the virus started in China. Its pretty offensive to claim that Chinese people are somehow unclean and don't handle food right.

China has sophisticated railway systems dude. They are a fine country that is quite modern and much of their hygiene standards rival that of the UK. Their rulers are intelligent people.

Maybe Covid-19 kills 2, 4, 10 % of the infected who knows at this point. It will be another 3-4 weeks before we have enough time and varied sources from enough countries to kind of cross analysis to actually verify the key points. Read s variety of foreign so called pro and amateur sources in the meantime and prepare how you can. I do wonder if 1 non Asians are affected as much 2 city pollution matters in connection with getting it 3 warm weather will help reduce infection. Somehow the 1918 pandemic came to end hopefully this will to and sooner than later.

What are the chances of coronavirus becoming as widespread as the flu? Very, very, unlikely. Mentioning that possibility and hand wringing about it is pure SIFCLFery. The chances of coronavirus killing over 400,000 a year, or anywhere near that number, are very low, it may be more dangerous than the flu if you get it, but you are nowhere near as likely to get it, and thus the flu kills vastly more people.

It's actually extremely likely. Are you high again?

Not yet, but it's extremely unlikely. The virus hasn't even infected 400,000 yet, let alone killed 400,000, get a grip.

The 1918 pandemic lasted 3 years. Define "sooner" and "later". What if "sooner" is 2 years?

Well, you need to take that up with all the virologists and leaders of government institutions like the CDC, who say it's very likely this becomes widespread pandemic. With an R0 of over 6.0.. you are just talking out of your ass when you say it's not likely to match influenza in infectivity. Influenza has never been anywhere near this transmissive.
