The interesting part is how far it's spread in a short period of time.
Yeah
I wonder if casualties are accurately reported
Chances are, they are not
It can be a case of a new flew, mostly killing old/weak people, or something different
It's at least got the Chinese govt freaking out, since they cordoned off a city of 10 million people.
If anything, it would likely affect third-world countries disproportionately (and the old/weak in all countries).
It's already in the US. We'll see how long it takes to get reported in the EU.
I don't see it as a bad thing personally
As a matter of fact if this can turn out to be a full blown disaster with millions of casualties, spreading faster than it kills but killing fast nonetheless, it can bring about the political changes we need
Open borders policies are all fun and games until WHO says otherwise
"We", westerners mostly, disrupted the balance of life and death at our expense in the end, we don't have what it takes politically and technically to correct the mistake, but a mass pandemic can
Survivors will be the best equipped and organized/reasonable to face such crisis, darwin
...
Sure it's sad for people getting hurt, and I could very well be one of them in a not so distant future, but eh, something has to give, staying on the path we are on is a dead end anyway
