This is gonna be less than SARS



Flu kills a lot more. But people have learned to accept it.



Malaria alone infects a quarter billion and kills half a million every year. Are you guys afraid? No. It's a 3rd world disease



Here in BRazoo we coexist with Leishmaniasis, dengue fever and in the last decades, Chikungunya and Zika also entered the "scene". Zika causes microcephaly in babies if the mother contracts it during pregnancy.



We also have Chagas, which damages your heart. Yellow fever and malaria too.



Never caught any of them. A few friends had Leishmaniasis years ago and today it's a dog disease mostly. A few people I know had dengue fever.



But nobody died. Brazoo sounds like a rough place. And it is.



But if I were to fear anything here based on my experience, I'd be a lot more afraid of driving, diabetes, heart disease and cancer. And suicide. Most people who died that I knew and were younger than 65 died of those.
There\'s always a bigger fish.

US government declares the novel coronavirus a public health emergency and suspends entry for foreign nationals who visited China



The novel coronavirus has been declared a public health emergency in the United States, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said in a White House briefing on Friday.

Once the declaration goes into effect at 5 p.m. ET Sunday, US citizens returning to the United States who have been in China's Hubei province in the two weeks before their return will be subject to up to 14 days of mandatory quarantine, Azar said.

US citizens returning from the rest of mainland China in the two weeks prior will face a health screening at a select number of ports of entry, he said. Those citizens also face up to two weeks of monitored self-quarantine to ensure they pose no health risk.

President Donald Trump has signed a proclamation suspending the entry of foreign nationals who have traveled in China in the last two weeks, Azar said, and could pose a risk of spreading the coronavirus. Foreign nationals who are the immediate family of US citizens or permanent residents are exempt.



"These prudent, targeted and temporary actions will decrease the pressure on public health officials screening incoming travelers, expedite the processing of US citizens and permanent residents returning from China, and ensure resources are focused on the health and safety of the American people," Azar said.

"I want to stress: the risk of infection for Americans remains low," he added. "And with these and our previous actions we're working to keep the risk low."

Will Justine put Canadians safety first. He never has before, so I don't expect him to now.

The coronavirus could cost China's economy $60 billion this quarter. Beijing will have to act fast to avert a bigger hit



Hong Kong (CNN Business)China may have to cut taxes, boost spending and slash interest rates to prevent the coronavirus outbreak wreaking havoc on an already fragile economy.



The economic impact of the virus is still impossible to determine, but one state media outlet and some economists have said that China's growth rate could drop two percentage points this quarter because of the outbreak, which has brought large parts of the country to a standstill. A decline on that scale could mean $62 billion in lost growth.

China can ill afford that kind of hit. Growth last year was already the country's weakest in nearly three decades, as China contended with rising debt and the fallout from its trade war with the United States.
