The market has gone into a typical fear correction over Coronavirus, where statistically about 98% of infected recover. Meanwhile here's the numbers on Influenza worldwide:

Seasonal flu kills 291,000 to 646,000 people worldwide each year, according to a new estimate that's higher than the previous one of 250,000 to 500,000 deaths a year. The new figures from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other groups were published Dec. 13 in The Lancet medical journal.

It's also a virus and transmitted exactly the same as Coronavirus, so technically the entire world should be in lockdown continually. The fear is not based on reality but emotion, so picking the near bottom of the sell off will be quite lucrative. Many bargains now on stocks including Pex.

The flu gets its name from the virus that causes it — the influenza virus. It spreads when people cough or sneeze out droplets that are infected with the virus and other people breathe them in. The droplets also can land on things like doorknobs or shopping carts, infecting people who touch these things.
