A new unknown virus, then thought it’s similar to SARS//MERS with animal to human transmission, high fatality but much less contagious than influenza., originated from seafood market but now expert doubt it. A lesson that wrong assumptions come with a price.The top ten countries now dealing with the epidemic, China successfully contained it in one and a half month. Zhong Nanshan said had the lock down took place five days later, the epidemic could be three time worse, won’t peak until late March. CNY with large scale movement and gathering of people was just around the corner. Time is of the essence to contain it. Some countries simply won’t learn the lesson until their hospitals are overwhelmed.
BTW, of the 24 new cases in China, 13 are from Wuhan, 1 from Heilongjiang, 10 from overseas returnees.
