Well it’s a big lesson for us.
For generations, we’ve been advising the students to permanently suspend the all Aggies travel to Wuhan, China and eat bats tradition.

This sneezing student is our penance for failing to listen.
Thank you for your ever-present concern, horn.

Foreign students coming back from break. College Station isn’t the only place where this is a real threat.

This coronavirus is estimated to have a mortality rate of 5%. That doesn’t sound high but the Spanish flu mortality rate was 10% and killed 50-100 million people or 5% of the world population then. China has 1.4 billion people. Do the math.

You are absolutely right. As a physician, it scares me when we get these kind of outbreaks because it does not take much to overwhelm an already stressed system. I too am worried that the Chinese are not telling everything they know about this outbreak. Coronvirus is typically much like a cold, but this one appears to illicit an extreme immune response, which is similar to what was reported in the Influenza Epidemic of 1917-1918 that killed millions. People should go back and read the history of that outbreak. It was a scary time for sure.
Prayers for those in Aggieland and hoping they have gotten it under control and contained. With the Chinese (Asian) New Year starting this weekend there is a high likelihood of this getting spread around even more.

In light of current events I would say that's good for us and bad for you. Enjoy getting the coronavirus in the arse, yet another distinction for you Aggies
