Yeah mass hysteria is a thing haha.

Four countries reported their first ever cases today (Qatar, Luxembourg, Ecuador, Ireland). Current total: 6782 cases and 107 deaths in 64 countries. Cumulative cases by country (cases charted on a log scale for better visualisation):

That's no moon...It's a space station!

Possible.

Also possible, theoretically it could be latent and virtually undetectable; similar to HIV or Herpes. It's just one more thing that we really don't know about the virus at the moment.

There's very very little we currently know about it, there have only been two cases so far that are suspected to have been reinfected.

There seems to be some speculation about Iran using corticosteroids to treat the virus, suppressing the bodies immune response in such a way that more succumb to the pneumonia. Or maybe their numbers are much higher because they have many more infected than they've been able to test. When it started spreading in China there were also regular reports of people (medical staff etc.) being skeptical about the reported numbers, saying they were much lower than reality. Apparently many potential cases weren't included in the official count because they died before they could be tested. In the end it all comes down to the testing capacity. If you don't test, you don't officially have confirmed cases/deaths.

@Tommy since you probably didn't see my previous post Sophia Flörsch will be also taking part in 24h of Le Mans race

Only few details as most countries don't reveal much via official channels; but overall it's mostly the elderly or those with weakened immune systems and pre-existing medical conditions. There have been very few reports of younger healthy people passing away; and those are usually doctors/nurses so might have something to do with exposure too. South Korea's 3 deaths today were three women; 62, 93 and 70 years old. The average age of all 34 deaths in Iran is reported to be over 60. The Japanese citizen/former Diamond Princess passenger who passed away today was also in her 70s.

Midnight's update for international cases outside of mainland China in the last 24 hours (00:00 to 24:00 CET Feb 28): 1070 new cases and 18 deaths: South Korea - 571 new cases and 3 deaths; Italy - 234 new cases and 4 deaths; Iran - 143 new cases and 8 deaths; Japan - 35 new cases and 1 death; France - 19 new cases; Spain - 11 new cases; Germany - 6 new cases; Bahrain, Switzerland - 5 new cases each; UK, Sweden, Israel - 4 new cases each; USA, Malaysia, Austria - 3 new cases each; Taiwan, Canada, Kuwait, Croatia, Norway, Romania, Mexico - 2 new cases each; Thailand, Australia, Finland, Iraq, Greece, Georgia, Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria, Lithuania, New Zealand, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Iceland, Monaco - 1 new case each. 2 former passengers of the Diamond Princess cruise ship also passed away (a Japanese woman and a British man). Eight countries reported their first ever cases today (Nigeria, Lithuania, New Zealand, Belarus, Mexico, Azerbaijan, Iceland, Monaco). Current total: 5346 cases and 88 deaths in 60 countries.

Same here. Bought a crate last week; it's shitty as beer but goes great with spicy food hehe.

Well the makers of Corona beer already reported a loss of $170 Million in the last 2 months so there you go...

Well it might have something to do with this: https://www.propublica.org/article/cdc-coronavirus-covid-19-test/amp

Yes it's a good one; nice interface and also updated regularly.

Depends. There's some evidence suggesting that there might be no acquired immunity so if that's the case I'd definitely prefer contracting it as late as possible. There's also a possibility that it may have the potential to cause antibody-dependent enhancement of disease, meaning that every subsequent re-infection with the same strain would likely lead to more severe symptoms and more tissue damage (not to mention that it'd make it much harder to develop herd immunity) - somewhat similar to dengue fever.

Midnight's update for international cases outside of mainland China in the last 24 hours (00:00 to 24:00 CET Feb 27): 960 new cases and 14 deaths: South Korea - 505 new cases and 1 death; Italy - 202 new cases and 5 deaths; Iran - 106 new cases and 7 deaths; Japan - 35 new cases and 1 death; Germany - 22 new cases; France - 20 new cases; Kuwait - 17 new cases; Spain - 10 new cases; Switzerland - 7 new cases; UAE - 6 new cases; Sweden - 5 new cases; Hong Kong, Singapore, UK, Norway - 3 new cases each; Oman, Iraq, Greece - 2 new cases each; Lebanon, Israel, Austria, Denmark, Estonia, Netherlands, San Marino - 1 new case each. Four countries reported their first ever cases today (Denmark, Estonia, Netherlands, San Marino). Current total: 4276 cases and 70 deaths in 52 countries.

There's a difference between staying informed and panicking/being overdramatic though. I mean you definitely get your fair share of those who buy a shitload of masks and storm supermarkets for supplies every time someone sneezes in China. The media with their clickbait headlines surely aren't helping either. But dismissing or ignoring it is the other extreme and also one of the reasons why this has spread by far more than it should have.

Alright. Ignorance is bliss after all

14 new cases in NRW confirmed, bringing Germany's total to 40. @Tommy

I'm personally not really into bitters/Kräuterliköre so I don't think I ever tried Underberg haha. Appenzeller and Kümmerling are alright but I only drink them if I get offered one after a meal somewhere.
