• Two internal emails about Coronavirus this morning - locking down all non-essential business travel & letting all the Japanese & Italian offices WFH. Bit concerning.

  • Being young, fit an healthy, concern = 0.

    Maybe we should re do brexit vote in 2 years time though...

  • I fear we are looking at a global pandemic, likely to effect somewhere between 40% to 70% of the world's population, with a number of fatalities somewhere between 15m and 100m.

    Impact will be worst in developing countries with fragile public health systems and limited response capacity, but still felt heavily in developed countries, with majority of deaths among elderly or those with other chronic illnesses, but with a significant number of deaths among young, otherwise healthy people.

    I think there will be major economic and geo-political effects, although difficult to predict the extent of these.

    Somebody please tell me why I am wrong.
