    Obviously not a good thing. Probably shouldn’t be ignored. Highly likely China is under reporting what’s going on..... but let’s not get the definitive end of the world movie script into production yet. More people have drowned in a tub while drunk at this point.

    Yes, but tubs and drunks weren't first discovered last December in Hubei province in central China, so they've a bit if a head start.

    Hubei is a landlocked province in Central China. Its varied terrain encompasses mountains, lakes and wilderness areas.

    little known fact; after the black plague, peoples lifestyles improved dramatically.

    when the dust settled, lords still needed their crops, so suddenly peasants were able to demand spending money for them.

    honestly if not for the black plague, america would probably be a feudal colony to this day.

    Coronavirus leads to sales spike of Plague Inc., a game about pandemics


    As the high-profile coronavirus spreads, Plague Inc., a real-time strategy video game that tasks players with spreading a deadly pathogen, has seen a dramatic uptick in sales.

    "Whenever there is an outbreak of disease we see an increase in players, as people seek to find out more about how diseases spread and to understand the complexities of viral outbreaks," Ndemic Creations said in a statement Thursday. And maybe to engage in a bit of black humor.

    The game, available for iOS and Android, as well as for Steam and consoles, came out in 2012. It has players pick a pathogen and strategize how to transmit it while countering actions by governments and scientists attempting to contain the global threat.

    "Your pathogen has just infected 'Patient Zero,'" reads a description of the title. "Now you must bring about the end of human history by evolving a deadly, global plague whilst adapting against everything humanity can do to defend itself."

    On Wednesday, Plague Inc. became the top-selling app in China, reported the BBC, which suggested some people were downloading the game to cope with fears around the still-mysterious virus. On Friday, Ndemic Creations said its website and servers were struggling to keep up with the high player demand.

    The coronavirus, which was first detected in the Chinese city of Wuhan, has infected more than 1,300 people and killed over 40 as of Saturday, with cases now confirmed in Asia, the US, Europe and Australia.

    Plague Inc. relies on an epidemic model with a complex, realistic set of variables to simulate the spread and severity of a pandemic. The developer has spoken to staff at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta about the game's disease models, and the CDC has said the title "creates a compelling world that engages the public on serious public health topics."

    But amid coronavirus fears, Ndemic Creations warns that the game shouldn't replace a scientific understanding of the illness.

    "Please remember that Plague Inc. is a game, not a scientific model and that the current coronavirus outbreak is a very real situation which is impacting a huge number of people," the company said. "We would always recommend that players get their information directly from local and global health authorities."

    remember sars?

    sars wasnt infectious during incubation.

    wuhan virus has a 1-14 day incubation period during which its infectious.

    its a whole new ballgame.

    but from what i'm reading, this seems less lethal than sars. to put it in perspective, 80,000 people died in the US from the regular flu in 2016

    Good. Now there is actually hope that this Wutang Flu can cause old chinese men to stop spitting their hork and blasting their nostril remnants in sinks at restrooms in casinos, leaving it there to dry out. This might actually have a beneficial effect for humankind, or, what's left of it when this thing subsides.

    Now if we can also get OSA to stop leaving his jizz in restrooms then we'll really be onto a winner.
