When I see this news I am very sad and worry ..The expert said it was possibly to erupt the high prevalence within a half year... Do you remember SARS in 2003 in Taiwan? It let our real Estate market and stock market become bad. We all know our economy is bad now it 's really "one misfortune after another." Now this infection speed will be quicker than SARS. Why it happen again and what can we do? Maybe I have to ask my sons to wear a mask to school.......
