I'm sure you remember SARS and all the hand-wringing and freaking out that happened.  Turned out to be not such a big deal.

One problem/feature with the Internet is that it puts us closer to the "raw intelligence" without any filter applied to what's fact vs inference vs rumor vs fiction written by trolls.

You can take whatever response you want.  My response is none whatsoever for at least a few weeks so we can see where the chips really fall.

So let me get this straight. A virus that is not a big deal has caused China to:

Send the president into hiding
Build several emergency hospitals
Lock down major cities
Extend the CNY
In some cases barricade people in their homes
Daily fumigation of streets
Crematories running 24x7 to burning the dead bodies
People being forcibly removed from their homes and taken into quarantine
Suspicious deaths around doctors revealing information
Extreme China censorship even to U. S. online forums

China has also sent out a blank response to their citizens for anyone dealing in international trade. If asked how things are going they all respond with extremely similar answers about how everything is contained in Wuhan and things are fine. Literally down to the same wording in cases.

Tell me. What does China know about this “not a big deal Virus” that we don’t that they are willing to risk their economy?

This thing is being overblown in a big way. First, the fatality rate is below 2% (which is pretty low as far as these things go). Second, the infectiousness is fairly low as well; somewhere between 1.5 and 3 (measles by comparison is rated at 15).

So the virus is not all that infectious, and it is not all that fatal.

Fear driven journalism.

    Pretty much all the prediction models of global pandemic have
    been wrong. Recoveries are out pacing deaths. It hasnt spread
    outside china beyond the two people who had sex with people who
    had been infected in china. theyre offloading a cruise ship in
    New Jersey today apparently so our numbers will have a small
    jump. Its a 3rd world respiratory illness. chinese air is the
    dirtiest on the planet.
    I have a tool that shipped out of Wuhan a few weeks ago, i will
    lick it when it gets here and then come breath on people.

    UBNT probably is dropping because theyre not a CBRS LTE Player
    and theyre kind of stagnant in general right now

        I don’t follow UBNT but I would have to guess it has
        something to do with the Wuhan virus and the fact that all
        their stuff is made in China?

        I have been tempted to post asking if any WISPs are starting
        to stockpile equipment that might be in short supply this
        year.  I know China will try not to let the virus impact
        their manufacturing and exports, but it’s hard to see how it
        won’t.  It could also spread to other countries in the area
        that do a lot of electronic component manufacturing and
        assembly work.  I have already seen some predictions that TV
        supplies may be affected.
