I am shooting this podcast only 8.7 miles away from the epicenter of the coronavirus here in the United States which is the Life Care Center in Kirkland where the majority of deaths from the coronavirus have occurred in the US.  My office is in Bellevue and the next city to the north is Kirkland and that’s where the Life Care Center of Kirkland is located place.  Kirkland Signature Brand, yep, it's named after the same Kirkland.    

Coronavirus Death Toll as of 03/05/2020
3,254 deaths 3,254 people have died so far from the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak as of March 04, 2020, 23:16 GMT.
There are currently 95,179 confirmed cases in 84 countries and territories. The fatality rate is still being assessed.

Latest findings:
As of early March, the coronavirus outbreak had infected more than 95,000 people and killed more than 3,200 people globally, the majority of whom live in China, where the illness was first detected in December. More than 100 people in the United States have been diagnosed, including at least nine people who have died.

By comparison, influenza — known as the common flu — has infected as many as 45 million Americans since October and killed as many as 46,000, according to estimates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

So why all the worry and concern about the coronavirus?? It’s new and unfamiliar.  The flu is familiar.  We don’t like unfamiliar, it's scary and we tend to panic.  

1.  Growth could stagnate
The world's economy could grow at its slowest rate since 2009 this year due to the coronavirus outbreak, according to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

The think tank has forecast growth of just 2.4% in 2020, down from 2.9% in November.
It also said that a "longer lasting and more intensive" outbreak could halve growth to 1.5% in 2020 as factories suspend their activity and workers stay at home to try to contain the virus.

2.  Global shares take a hit
Investors have been worried about the impact of the coronavirus as it spreads outside of China.
