Dettol appears to be selling well.
Quote from World Health Organisation,
"Based on data from 44,000 patients with this coronavirus, the WHO says:
81% develop mild symptoms
14% develop severe symptoms
5% become critically ill
The proportion dying from the disease, which has been named Covid-19, appears low (between 1% and 2%) - but the figures are unreliable.
Thousands are still being treated but may go on to die - so the death rate could be higher. But it is also unclear how many mild cases remain unreported - so the death rate could also be lower.
To put this into context, about one billion people catch influenza every year, with between 290,000 and 650,000 deaths. The severity of flu changes every year."
In other words, just another cold-type disease. A lot of the problems are being caused by the media frenzy around it and peoples reaction to it. Media causes a panic, people want more information, the media provides it and makes more money.
