Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said Sunday the American public shouldn't worry about the coronavirus outbreak in China.
"It's a very, very low risk to the United States," Fauci said during an interview with radio show host John Catsimatidis.
"But it's something that we as public health officials need to take very seriously... It isn't something the American public needs to worry about or be frightened about. Because we have ways of preparing and screening of people coming in [from China]. And we have ways of responding - like we did with this one case in Seattle, Washington, who had traveled to China and brought back the infection."

Here is the info to show you what i was talking about
This SARS is 6X worse than the Spanish flu and it killed 20-50 million people.
Since the virus is already in USA and can transmit directly person to person and mutates quickly to even new forms and since people fly into America every hour from communist China — this statement may go down in history with such famous predictions as: “Television won’t last because people will soon get tired of staring at a plywood box every night.” - -Darryl Zanuck, movie producer, 20th Century Fox, 1946
Because Drs have gotten infected via their eyes - virus is airborne

Have any non-chinese gotten the virus?
The drugs are pretty good now.
Havent seen any reports yet of caucasians. Which does seem kind of weird given how contagious. Still early days.
We know there are all kinds of diseases that tend to strike certain ethnicities.
I have thalassemia which scientists seem to think developed to combat malaria and is seen more in certain types of people..
Will be watching to see how caucasians react to the bat soup disease

Coronaviruses - Alert!
Extremely valuable info on this half-hour podcast. Start at 4 minutes in. WELL worth your time.
“Have any non-chinese gotten the virus?”
As I pointed out the 3 in US, France, Canada, Australia and ones tested in Russia are all Chinese.
You notice that some masks are open at the bottom and some at the top (and not shown are the full closure) Open at the top are for when you are working on a patient below you such as lying down. Their sneeze will not go into your face as it would open to the bottom.
Maybe Xi doesn’t want to buy all those agricultural products from the US.
Is it covered by my health plan?
This is likely a deadly strain of Coronavirus stolen from Canada and meant for bioweapons research. There are far too many coincidences here for this not to be true, IMHO.

Have you lived in DC? Once the virus hits the Metro, the Federal Government will be wrecked.
If Obama were president, the crisis mentality being fomented by the media would not be “allowed to go to waste.”
Trump’s administration should be, and is, different. That’s a good thing.
If true, then mortality is extremely low.
There are frequently no obvious symptoms apparent in an infected (contagious) person
Same thing. If there are no obvious symptoms then lethality is probably low. Also to produce a lot of viruses a person will need to have symptoms.
My speculation, and the speculation that there is a widespread 2.5% fatal pandemic spreading around the planet will both be testable in a few weeks. At that point I would expect others to correct their mistakes as I will if I am wrong.
Correct. But there is also a valid argument that it has already been 10-14 days since widespread infection took place around China. It's quite possible there are 100's of thousands of infections with dozens of fatalities, in other words, a low lethality virus.
Well, I appreciate his reassurance.
It's hard to produce a lot of viruses without showing some symptoms.
He later downgraded to 2.6
