It depends on who is telling the truth and who isn't. There still seems to be a lot of confusion as to what is really going on at the moment. I think we will all get a better idea in a couple of weeks times, which by then maybe everything calms down again. In other countries there are no deaths reported but there are in China. Based on the numbers so far, there should have been deaths already outside China, but there aren't and people seem to be recovering ok.
I don’t put much stock in Business Insider, but I’ll share a chart that it compiled, and trust they got the data correct:
For comparison, more than 36,000 people died in traffic accidents in the U.S. in 2018.
An estimated 15 million people in the U.S. have been infected with the flu this season, and 8,200 have died.
More data revealing “corona beer virus” as a trending search term points to the probability that the human race will be ultimately be doomed not be disease, but by stupidity.
I’m not an expert, but the WHO may also be afraid that when this virus is widespread there is more chance that it will mutate into a more deadly variant?
The moment when all media goes mute is the moment when you really need to start worrying. Until then I recommend to start watching some dystopic virus movies...
This is nothing compared to a future super volcano, making volcanic winter and megadroughts. That happened only 75.000 years ago, when humans almost went extinct with barely 2000 to 10.000 humans left on whole earth. Like a small village, and we all originate from that group of humans. Genetic research has proven that. Earths population will stabilise in 30-40 years on 11 billion. A super volcano will for sure strike again, then, it will be the total apocalypse.
I have been on this forum for a long time but I don’t make many posts, just try to learn from the more experienced. I saw this on the Smart News app on my phone over lunch and with all the paranoia going on with the Coronavirus be careful what you open on your computer or phones.

Hantavirus dies pretty quickly, the thing is, where there have been rats and mice there probably ARE rats and mice, so lots of fresh droppings. Personally I try to keep the amount of feces and dried urine I inhale or ingest to a minimum.
“The virus does not remain active for long once outside of its host — less than 1 week outdoors and a few hours when exposed to direct sunlight. ”
