I dont recall it being that high. Is that accurate?
Yep, 35% of known cases have been fatal, fortunately it's just hard to catch without fucking a camel or working in close proximity to a patient, so it made less of a splash than SARS.

The number would be lower for an outbreak in the West because we have better healthcare and better government responses. Plus a lot more mild cases would be diagnosed for the didn't die column as anyone with a sniffle would be tested. Even so, if that one mutates to flu level infectiousness, there'll be a lot less traffic jams.

The Huanan Seafood Market
A price list circulating on China's Internet for a business at the Wuhan market lists a menagerie of animals or animal-based products, including live foxes, crocodiles, wolf puppies, giant salamanders, snakes, rats, peacocks, porcupines, camel meat and other game - 112 items in all.
I guess this is a misspelling of "The Hunan Seefood Market." If they see it, they eat it.

The more exotic the more they like it. The problem is they like to eat a lot of endangered species too.

Talented virus. Jumping all over between species. Doesn't happen often in most viruses.

P.S. Is the solution to stop these Chinese folks from eating nasty-ass shit? ;)

That town (or province) of Wuhan (in china) is on lockdown or quarantine. How would you like to be there, not be sick, and be forced to remain knowing that people are dying of this shit.

Yeah, as opposed to the one you get from sailing, which is the Naval coronavirus.
