CDC estimates that the burden of illness during the 2018–2019 season included an estimated 35.5 million people getting sick with influenza, 16.5 million people going to a health care provider for their illness, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths from influenza
If the death rate percentage is close to accurate, then over 2% die from the complications of the illness.
If the R-naught percentage is accurate, then it spreads at a rate of about 2.5.
Both of those would be similar to the Spanish Flu of 1918. Plus, we have a lot more global connections nowadays. It will be much worse that "standard" influenza.
How many of the Campfire Contingent runs the risk of dealing with a Chinaman?
My kids go to a chinese language immersion school. Their teachers are from China and some went home for the Chinese new year. Plus my wife is a PA. Makes me wonder if it's not a good thing that my new obama insurance won't pay for my Humira. Might be a good time to be off of immunosuppressants.

China held back on quarantine long enough for 5 million to hop planes and escape China. Scary.

Dr Amy Compton-Phillips just reported on Fox the cured US case they treated started deteriorating after a week in the hospital and they used an experimental anti-viral from the CDC which turned his health around quickly.
Now, to find out just which antiviral company provided that.
Bad news, and what I was wondering about, is that CDC says this could continue through the end of the year.

I have a years food storage and a little savings left so I may just have to quarantine my family if it gets bad around here.

If it gets bad enough for you to shelter-in-place then you've probably already contracted it anyway. Best to stop going to McDonald's now. Y'all have McDonald's up there?
Mornin people's, I haven't read the whole thread, so this may have been gone over! Anyone think that maybe said gov was playing with germ war fair ideas & opened the lid to see what it looked like.......... or needed some reall world numbers to work with??????? Bill out. 🐾👣🇨🇦
This article offers a great example of a "super spreader" who will probably single-handedly be responsible for causing the virus to become an epidemic in South Korea. S.Korea COVID-19 spread
Just a sweet little 61-year old lady, patient #31, who just so happened to have returned from a Wuhan visit with no symptoms, who said no way to self-quarantine and instead chose to go to church multiple times and have extensive contact with hundreds of people, and who just so happened to visit the local hospital too a few times so she could be kind to people there, and....WHAM....
1160 known contacts the church is now the epicenter of the main S.Korean outbreak the hospital is the second epicenter of the S.Korean outbreak and its now considered uncontainable in S.Korea

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed another case of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States on Wednesday, bringing the country's total to 14.
The patient was discovered in San Diego, Calif., at the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar. The infected individual had returned to America on a State Department chartered flight on Feb. 7, and is now under federal quarantine, according to a press release.

It could be a bio-weapon, but it probably was an accident of poor laboratory hygiene if so. They have had four known hygiene mistakes with the SARS virus from that lab over the past 10 years.
But really, bats and people are all you really need. And there's already another 400 named viruses ready to jump species, some of which already have crossed into humans on a small scale in rural areas of China. Bat coronoviruses jumping to humans
