I am not knowledgeable. I am paying close attention to South Korea. I don't have a lot of faith in the stats from China. I do understand it is a large number. Probably larger than then they claim. We were discussing the Spanish flu tonight. We live near a small rural cemetary and there was a clearly high incidence of death in 1918 as marked on the tombstones. My elderly aunt has no memory of course, but she was told a lot of her relative were gone in under a week after symptoms. It doesn't affect my long-term investment thesis yet, but it could certainly stop economic growth in the near future.
