they say it's 10x worse than the Flu. Flu kills 3,000 per year, 3,000 x 10 = 30,000 victims in OZ. I really can't see them being able to stop a respiratory virus, heck they can't stop the flu, without crashing the economy. So whether it's this year, or next year, it's going to knock off 30,000. That's 0.12% of the population
re: children - yes, it is contagious. Just not fatal to children
