I think it is a serious problem this virus… The major problem with it is that you can have contracted it and not even know you have got it. Then it can spread to elderly and if they have pre-existing condition like COPD, Diabetes, cancer or some other serious illness it can kill those people very quickly they can not fight it and also the virus is very contagious.

Then before you know it the hospitals are over run. People are in panic mode and a lot of people are losing work due to no demand for social interaction Sports, conferences, exhibitions, travel and tourism and restaurants. It’s not just a Health problem it is a hammer blow to the economy which now simply is not functioning as it should because of Banned activity and little demand.

Although the first reported cases were in February in the UK there are people that think they had it already in December and early January going by the symptoms and a lot of my colleages work in Events where potentially Chinease will show up to exhibit or even tourism in London so it could have been around far sooner than is being reported. So it could be that the journalism now spreading panic might be a bit late and slow if this is the case and although they are masqurading as purveyors of what you need to know they actually were asleep when we already had the problem; But it’s also the nature of the virus.
