Top @WHO emergency official tells @HelenBranswell it's not too late to contain #2019nCoV #coronarvirus -- virus might not be spreading as efficiently as feared, he says, and asymptomatic spread is not a big contributor

I wonder how
@WHO can make generalizations with poor data coming out of China?
(My guess/gut sense) If this virus was even a tiny fraction as transmissible as flu, rsv, etc, we'd already have a whole, whole, whole lot more confirmed cases in the developed world. This really is acting like SARS, and quarantine was completely effective there in the end.
