Great Explanatory Article about the Unique Characteristics of Covid-19

Good article.

Especially this part:

The new virus certainly seems to be effective at infecting humans, despite its animal origins. The closest wild relative of SARS-CoV-2 is found in bats, which suggests it originated in a bat, then jumped to humans... ...“It had already found its best way of being a [human] virus”... ...This uncanny fit will doubtlessly encourage conspiracy theorists: What are the odds that a random bat virus had exactly the right combination of traits to effectively infect human cells from the get-go, and then jump into an unsuspecting person? “Very low,” Andersen says

Yes, riveting section. Followed by this, though:

“but there are millions or billions of these viruses out there. These viruses are so prevalent that things that are really unlikely to happen sometimes do.”
 
What pissed me off was when they said it was only discovered in January. Horseshit. The Chinese government knew about it at least a month prior, suppressed the news, and allowed 5 million people to leave the country before they said a word.

this fucking Coronavirus is doing the exact same thing as SARS did to my investment portfolio perhaps even worse.

SARS = Systematic Asset Reduction Syndrome
