What symptoms are caused by the virus from Wuhan in China, how is it being transmitted from one person to another, and at what point should you go to the doctor?

What is the virus causing illness in Wuhan? It is a novel coronavirus – that is to say, a member of the coronavirus family that has never been encountered before. Like other coronaviruses, it has come from animals. Many of those infected either worked or frequently shopped in the Huanan seafood wholesale market in the centre of the Chinese city, which also sold live and newly slaughtered animals. New and troubling viruses usually originate in animal hosts. Ebola and flu are examples.

Why worry about it? Be prepared but don’t worry.

Two things that struck me; “many of those who died were already in poor health” - so it’s just like Flu? Second thing and the scariest thing, 1 case documented in Nepal. Not so happy about that

The countries of the World should not wait for the cronovirus to come to them. The world must help China deal with its misfortune, for the sake of the health of the whole world!

Coronavirus crisis is chilling and we must airlift Brits from WuhanUK must be ready for when virus hits THE exploding snake flu crisis is absolutely chilling. Shocking film from inside swamped hospitals in China, with collapsed doctors and bodies in corridors, is … To be honest if these I cannot call them people, can eat animals boiled alive and tortured before killing them. I honestly have not sympathy as I believe it is mother nature's way of saying poetic justice.. All people should stay where they are. To leave is negligent and increases risk of spread. All viruses die out, you just have to wait. Nope. Wrong decision. Anyone heading to U.K. will need to be screened first. Before flying home. The rest will have to be placed in quarantine and we do not have the space to do that. It would be reckless to pass the virus on in the U.K.
