Short video.... How fearful should you be about the coronavirus?

I think with anything new, unpredictable, and potentially life threatening like the coronavirus infection, it is normal to feel fearful and scared. Having said that, too much fear can lead to panic, which can lead to unhelpful responses and actions. Too little fear also be a problem too. It can lead to complacency resulting in the problem potentially getting much worse. So in summary, one has to find the balance between having to much fear versus too little fear. Having a healthy level of fear around the coronavirus outbreak is probably a good thing in order to motivate us to take appropriate actions to prevent further spread of the disease.
