I'll be very surprised if they don't cancel E3 2020

Will have to see how things are going with covid-19 by June. Usually heat keeps virus transmission rates very low since they die off outside the body much faster when its hot. One of the main reasons the Flu season is in colder months.

Yea, that's what they all say, until they do cancel.
Another one unrelated to tech:

I think I'll be out of a job soon if this keeps going on (I work in aviation/cargo, not directly on airplanes, but IT...
Things are bad, everyone has losses left and right, some already going bankrupt

All this crap...flu is more deadly.
H1N1 was more deadly.
Damn, each month ppl die from various reasons, like women die in labor, if I remember correctly is like 20k+ worldwide, each month.
Sure. If u have diabetics, health, veins, lung problems and u r smoker, then u have big chance to die from it. 60y.o.+ chances growing up.
Otherwise u have more chance to win euromillions than die from this virus.

3 Months from now COVID-19 is expected to be at it's peak.

39 people died directly for flue, but other ~8000 died due complication of flue.
Source: ISS, which is the official source of the Italian healtcare for this kinda data: https://www.epicentro.iss.it/influenza/sorveglianza-mortalita-influenza
Sorry, didn't any manually translated version of the article. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=it&tl=en&u=https://www.epicentro.iss.it/influenza/sorveglianza-mortalita-influenza
Almost (all?) deaths of COVID-19 in Italy were very old people or people with serius healt issues.

stop being fake news
The death rate soars to 14.8% in those 80 and older; among those ages 70 to 79, the COVID-19 death rate in China seems to be about 8%; it’s 3.6% for those ages 60 to 69; 1.3% for 50 to 59; 0.4% for the age group 40 to 49; and just 0.2% for people ages 10 to 39. No deaths in children under 9 have been reported.
not down playing it but not fear mongering it either
remember sars? that was gone fast but none the less
some comparative data from w.h.o

no fake news tells you what they want you to hear

air is dry and water is in the air so water is dry
jaggerwild
Yeah, its seems every election we have a new Killer Virus. I have a friend her son died from Sars(like five years ago)he was 18. But I do think it is a bunch of fear mongering people.

Not sure why this nonsense keeps getting posted around the internet. There is not one statement from any reputable source stating this.
It is factually incorrect to state the flu is more deadly. This is fact.
Say what you want about peoples overreaction or etc. Doesn't matter. But when it comes to scientific information, stop spreading around factually incorrect information.

Mods, can you please remove all of this Coronavirus nonsense posts that keep popping up? Everyone is a bloody Medical expert these days by the looks of it. Can we keep Guru3d civil and Tech related? This isn't a medical forum after all.
Thanks!
cowie
oh god you don't believe that the flu killed more then cor0na in the last 12 months?
worst thimg about this is the fear
you don't want to get it go outside and play take a walk in the woods go fishing
don't wear a mask wash your hands bla bla
dont read the posts if you can not handle it bro
the new is no better in most cases

The flu is more deadly than CoV19,
CoV19's only victims are the elderly and the severely malnourished.

So.
Covid spreads faster, has more transmission rate than flu, and, as our citizens get older and have more civilization diseases like asthma, allergies, obesity etc leading to cardiovascular problems yes, it is a big problem.
But...in my country, so good prepared for it(diagnosis is 88h+ for coronavirus test results) and indolence at power, goverment, well, I'm happy. Maybe all old pr@@ finally find themselves in better place and youth will steer country straight instead of next damn Venezuela.
