Followings additional summaries of the common symptoms of the coronavirus:
- It will first infect the throat, so the throat will have the dry sore throat feeling which will last for 3 to 4 days.
- Then the virus will blend into the nasal fluid and drips into the trachea and enter the lungs, causing pneumonia. This process will take 5 to 6 days.
- With pneumonia, comes high fever and difficulty in breathing. The nasal congestion is not like the normal kind. You will feel like you are drowning in water. It’s important to go seek immediate medical attention if you feel like this.
About prevention:
- The most common way of getting infected is by touching things in public, so you must wash your hands frequently. The virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 mins, but a lot can happen in those 5-10 mins (you can rub your eyes or pick your nose unwittingly) — VERY IMPORTANT
- Avoid going to crowded public areas. If it is not possible, put on a facemask if available — IMPORTANT
- Aside from washing your hands frequently, you can gargle with Betadine Sore Throat Gargle to eliminate or minimize the germs while they are still in your throat (before dripping down to your lungs).
- Take extra care and drink plenty of water.

Good advice there Tom, like the Art from the children with excellent advice too.
I hope we all stay safe, this virus is getting globally concerning now, this weekend would have seen the start of one of my favourite sports, MotoGP, the premier race there is cancelled now because those teams need to fly in still and would need 14 days mandatory quarantine, the Moto 3 and 2 class are already in Qatar and they will go ahead … drastic measures, but safety comes first and I totally understand, the next MotoGP race at Thailand has been cancelled too I’m just reading.
One of my other passions in life is live Music, have several shows upcoming through 2020 arranged in UK, depending on how things go, some may get cancelled because of same problem, large amounts of people in close proximity to each other, just going to have to wait and see though I guess, health comes first.
Good health to all and lets hope this crisis does not get much worse.

Yes. Do take this seriously.
All big events in HK are cancelled and schools are closed to early April until further notice.
Health is more important than anything else.
