SARS-CoV-2 is a new kind of coronavirus that appeared suddenly in late 2019. The disease it causes, called COVID-19, is now showing signs that it’s able to spread outside of its place of origin. This raises some questions… like, do we have a pandemic on our hands? What’s the difference between a pandemic and an epidemic? SciShow News has some facts to help you understand a complex and rapidly changing situation.

Thank you everybody for worrying about demonetization. Thanks to our customers (high 5!) and our sponsors (Go to http://Brilliant.org/SciShow to check out Brilliant’s Daily Difficulties. The first 200 subscribers get 20% off an annual Premium membership.) we wear'' t ever need to fret about whether any specific video is going to get demonetized. Obviously, even if we did, we would still cover topics like this, however it is nice to not have it even enter our minds. Truthfully, the subject of whether this video would be monetized actually never ever came up in the workplace which'' s completely because of Patreon, so thank you for your assistance. And now I'' m gon na go wash my hands now because I simply high fived a lot of people. – Hank
As somebody with allergies, yeah, those masks wear'' t help. If you ' re sick, yeah get one so you don'' t get others ill. I'' m simply pleased I ' m in a location that hasn ' t had any cases of it. I'' m just not feeling well due to said allergies (completely different symptoms)
I swear, social media makes whatever worse. I saw a person at work put on a face mask and after that take selfies.
Enjoyable Fact: Infections membranes are made of lipids.Lye '' soap ' ruins lipids.Wash your hands.Or take a TidePod … up to you.
Well, it'' s NOW a pandemic since March 11th. As far as I'' m aware.Primary source (at least, the most dependable one that'' s not a news source) https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/events-as-they-happen
Simply when you think 2020 could not get any even worse we have this mess

903 individuals are hand sneezers
This video did not age well on the Chinese Flu.
Why bot burn the bodys and individuals with the infection also any one that is professional antivax Overpopulation might be fix not good word not nice wordVirus not aliveThis is joke
What i need to know is “why all the panic when the seasonal influenza kills method more every year” also when you do look at the statistics on the brand-new infection. Do the mathematics over 95% of individuals make it through the brand-new virus. Amusing how you do not see news posts specifically discussing “the survivors”
Please update this video, it is now a PANDEMIC
could this be controlled by a group as some sort of germ warfare?
