It's beginning to look like the trench/squat toilets common in China (and not most other places) is the major disease vector. Total cases in the US is only 35 individuals, and ZERO deaths. Contrast this to the latest US-only flu data <https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm> , with 29 million infections and 16,000 deaths. I think we are paying attention to the wrong things (so what's new about that?).

More communicable than SARS, more deadly than seasonal flu. Still remains to be seen how it plays out in countries with better (and worse) healthcare systems than China, but it’s gonna spread worldwide. Masks, thermometers and quarantine don’t seem to be magic bullets. Buy lots of hand soap, and stay off cruise ships. https://www.vox.com/2020/2/23/21149327/coronavirus-pandemic-meaning-italy From: AF <mailto:af-boun...@af.afmug.com> <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> On Behalf Of Colin Stanners Sent: Sunday, February 23, 2020 12:58 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <mailto:af@af.afmug.com> <af@af.afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: Corona-fu (was UBNT stock) <smart-ass> It seems that America's enemies know that the best way to have America's economy crumble is to let the Trump rallies go on fully unimpeded. </smart-ass> A kill rate of 2% seems small as statistic, but that's still a few thousand currently dead, including many medical staff, who are being mourned by their friends and families. It's likely that the number of people killed by coronavirus will surpass that of the 9/11 attacks shortly. Most frightening is that with its virulence, if uncontrolled it could infect or have infected millions or much more, then suddenly that 2% dead becomes unimaginable.

CNN and MSNBC would be advertising for the terrorists 24/7. By the time they were done with it, it could have killed zero people, and everyone would still be hid out in their house listening to their propaganda.
