Corona Virus (COVID-19) - seriousIt is reasonable known where and how it all started: Huanan SeafoodMarket in Hubei, where live wild animals (and poultry) are sold. Maybe!As a Corona virus is fine with jumping from animals to humans it mightjust be the case.This strain is highly contagious and spread viarespiratory droplets generated by sneezingand coughing. That means a good sneeze caninfect hundreds of people in a crowded space(a train?).There are no vaccines or antiviral drugs to prevent or treat human coronavirusinfections as of yet.A recent report from China says a lot. This I picked from BBC• Data from the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention(CCDC) finds that more than 80% of the cases have been mild, withthe sick and elderly most at risk• The findings put the overall death rate of the Covid-19 virus at 2.3%.• China’s latest official figures released on Tuesday 18 February put the
overall death toll at 1,868 and 72,436 infections.• The report by the CCDC shows the Hubei province’s death rate is2.9% compared with 0.4% in the rest of the country.• China’s latest official figures released on Tuesday put the overalldeath toll at 1,868 and 72,436 infections.• More than 12,000 people have recovered, according to Chineseauthorities.Looking forward, the paper finds that “the epidemic curve of onset ofsymptoms” peaked around 23-26 January before declining up to 11February.It might mean that isolation actually has worked.Of course we see some rather unexpected consequences:The Diamond Princess cruise ship wasquarantined in the Japanese port of Yokohamaon 3 February, after a man fromHong Kong tested positive. More than450 of the 3,700 people on board havesince become infected.A second ship, the MS Westerdam, was turned away by multiple portsaround Asia over fears it could be carrying the virus.But the danger is that the staff still needs to move around. Confiningpassengers to their cabins might not work. Lines will still have to bechanged, food prepared and distributed. And just one infected persongoing from cabin to cabin with fresh towels ….Have we got it under control?Well, it has impacted 170 millionpeople in terms or travel restrictions,quarantines and so on.Science is telling us that it will dieout in May. But ….
