China's new Corona virus: is it worth panicking?  

hello followers develop Urself if you follow in the news you're probably very concerned right now to say the least about the new plague that hit the world in the form of a deadly virus the 1 million dollar question is should you panic about the CORONA VIRUS from China let's see what the experts say it's a virus scientists have never seen before health officials do know exactly where it came from new infections are confirmed every day despite the unprecedented quarantine the death toll is rising too but again should you panic though if this were a Hollywood movie now would be a good time to panic in real life however all that most of you need to do especially the ones outside of China is to just wash your hands and proceed with your daily activities and other terms business as usual it's a true rule - Brandon brown and epidemiologist at UC Riverside who studied many deadly outbreaks was reported to have said don't panic unless you pay to panic in addition to humans coronaviruses sicken cows pigs cats chickens camels bats and other animals most of the outbreaks early victims said that they have visited a large seafood and live animal market in the Chinese mega city of Wuhan where I personally spent 12 months training high school teachers suggesting that the virus originated in another species before jump into humans fortunately the virus seems to cause only minor symptoms such as fever and difficulty with breathing in people who are young and healthy most of the 41 deaths tied to the corona virus to date have been in people who are at least 50 years old with underlying medical problems or weakened immune systems Chinese official said in fact it is possible the hundreds or even thousands of people in China and elsewhere have been infected but have had such mild reactions that no one even noticed said dr. Tom Inglis B director of the center for health security at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health some might have fought off the bug without showing any outward symptoms at all on the other hand more than 85% of the patients identified in the past week said that they have not visited the Wuhan market that is believed to be ground zero for the outbreak the market is now closed of course patients and Guangdong province have spread the to family members who had not travel to one which was about 600 miles away if you guys remember the 2003 SARS outbreak that began in China's Guangdong province it actually had started the year earlier in 2002 and by the time the world knew about it in 2003 that already killed 774 people in 29 countries and sickened 8,000 others before it was declared an outbreak this time around the Chinese officials have moved swiftly to alert other countries to the outbreaks development here in Hong Kong we've heard many different theories of how this outbreak occurred some say it occurred naturally and some say it is by a weapon that was deliberately created and some other people believed that it could have been accidentally released from a research facility whatever it is and how it came to exist it won't change the fact that the media does one of two things news agencies tend to overestimate the threat in order to attract eyeballs you see that by yourself don't you just tuned into any news channel and you'll probably be overwhelmed by the feeling that the world as you know it is on the verge of collapse and that happens every single day so news agencies usually overreact but government agencies on the other hand are tasked with maintaining social order and they want to minimize panic and thus they may actually don't play the seriousness of the threat especially the credible ones if the government knows that the crap is going to hit the fan the last thing that they want everybody to do is start losing it and panicking because that makes it much harder for them to maintain social order and this makes perfect sense because a breakdown a law and order may have a profoundly negative effect and make the spread of the virus even worse so you don't need to panic as the news agencies would make you feel and also don't be so nonchalant about it based on the impression that you get from the officials in your country always wear a mask outside wash your hands regularly for at least 20 seconds and make a habit of not touching any surface while outside.
