Early days. I hope that China’s quarantine efforts (and ours) are successful until a vaccine can be produced in quantity.

The “canary in the coal mine” for me was hospital staff getting infected and the deaths (now 2) of young medical specialists who would have by definition the best possible care.

The Americans now reckon Rho is between 4 and 6 - which is bad. The case fatality rate isn’t going to stay at 2% either if medical facilities are overwhelmed.

I will be pleasantly surprised if :

(a) I get to go on my European trip in July, and

(b) I still have some superannuation left, and

(c) I’m alive.
