There was a little short clip piece on N-TV this morning....talking over the Coronavirus, which probably will hype up the situation a bit.
There's a virus expert from the major Berlin hospital Charite....Christian Drosten....who commented that 60 to 70 percent of the general German public will be infected by the virus. But he adds one positive in that it's a problem only if it occurs in a 'compressed short period of time'.
Then he kinda adds....this is going to take a minimum of two years before things level out. He doesn't see the vaccine being around in 2020.
A big deal? The number quoted around this past week is that 85-percent of the public is going to have a moderate flu-type situation (fever, chills, cough) and it won't be a big deal. For 15-percent of the public....they will require real hospitalization.
The bigger issue is that it will affect the economy in various ways, and the suggestion of a recession coming by mid-summer (my humble opinion) is a fair reality.
