    A pretty good article from the NY Times... comparison of common flu and CV 19 - current data indicates that while CV 19 is more infectious the common flu shows to be the more dangerous of the two... particularly with very young children - to which CV 19 has seemed to have had very little impact.

    I feel travel in countries with good hygiene practice in general will all return to normal within a reasonable amount of time... Without painting all people with the same brush - I would hazard to assume that Asian countries including mainland China which may not have the same standards of hygiene may take longer to recover and have higher rates of infection - as a result - normal may take longer for them to reach... and as a result travel restrictions / negative sentiment towards travel to those regions may continue for some time.

    While the common flu does have the benefit of immunization treatments... history is somewhat chequered on their performance, but the reality is that we have been dealing with the seasonal flu every year - CV 19 is not coldpox... it may kill people, but the general population will live through it and life will go on.

    As always DYOR... but I really look forward to the day when we can call a bottom to the sell off... hopefully not before I can arrange to get the truck backed up for another slice of a few companies at once in a decade prices
