The problem: It’s more serious than the average flu and it’s surprisingly more lethal. On the other hand, it’s not the zombie apocalypse or the black plague either. Countries with crap medical tech and medical systems will be having major problems with it from the outset, particularly in places where the majority of citizens have major loss of lung function (as in China) due to pollution and smoking.

In theory does this not propose a larger problem of adaptation of the virus. IT pretty much has the world as a test tube and I am worried that this may make the next jump. If that happens this is going to be very nasty.
