SARS-like virus spreading rapidly in China; cities quarantined; cases in US

Here is the latest map of the virus. See those little dots in the non-China countries? They’ve been pretty much the same for a couple weeks now.

An initial breakout from the region (aided by the global travel network) followed by practically stasis everywhere except China.

That’s not the sign of a virus about to go hog wild or one that (in one claim I heard) seems ready to infect 60% of the world’s population.

Stay on top of it? Yes

Fear it/panic over it/over hype it? Not in the slightest.

Of course…doing the latter keeps eyeballs on media sites…
