[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In San Francisco for work. Washing my hands, not touching my face, not shaking hands. I’m more concerned about the almost empty plane and empty airports I crossed to get here. We need to balance risk with life. The effect of fear on the economy is worth considering. [/quote]

It will also not be good for the economy if 50-70 percent of the population contracts the virus, as scientists state is a possibility [/quote]

Source? Because the infection rate in South Korea (very high number of tests, possibly more reliable than China numbers for multiple reasons) is 6,284 positives / 164,670 tested = [b].38%.[/b] So it seems shocking to me that they would estimate more than half of people would become infected. [/quote]

[b]3.8% sorry, typo. [/b][/quote]

DP here:
That 50-70% statistic is if NO ACTION IS TAKEN by governments to stop the spread of the illness.
