The spread of
#2019nCoV (≥14,000 new cases in ~3 weeks) is much faster than when SARS and MERS emerged. SARS was vanquished in 2003 after spreading for 9 months with only 8,098 confirmed cases. MERS has been circulating since 2012, with only ~2,500 known cases.#coronavirusPrikaži ovu nit -

More on mortality: current data suggest ~2% mortality for
#2019nCoV, but it's very likely that MANY cases, especially in people with no/few symptoms, were not tested/reported. Experts think the real mortality likely will be LOWER, once ALL are counted.https://twitter.com/DrDenaGrayson/status/1224120205640597505?s=20 …Prikaži ovu nit

Cases reported today in Uyghur Detention Camps, could give China an excuse for genocide.

The immigrants in detention camps and those living outside in Mexico are a huge concern too. They couldn't even get a flu shot.
