Coronavirus: Second British death and more than 100,000 cases worldwide – BBC News
A second person has died from coronavirus in the UK. He was an elderly man with underlying health conditions. The number of people now infected with coronavirus in the UK has risen again to 164, up from 116 yesterday. It’s the biggest UK increase in a single day so far.
Around the world, there are now more than 100,000 cases. Of those, more than half – almost 56,000 people – have recovered. But more than 3,400 have died.
Meanwhile, more than 3,500 people are being held in quarantine on a cruise ship off the coast of San Francisco, after a 71-year-old passenger died of the coronavirus.
Tonight’s coverage on the BBC News at Ten comes from our Medical Correspondent Fergus Walsh, our Business Editor Simon Jack, our North America Correspondent Sophie Long, our Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes, and our China Correspondent John Sudworth.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

It's a con — just like the scams Sars, swine flu, etc — and purely a money-maker for Big Pharma. Yet again, millions of poor animals sacrificed for testing another useless dangerous vaccine. Why is there no fear-mongering for regular flu deaths that cause considerably more deaths annually.

As I am an Asian(South Korean 한국인), I really hate to see that Europeans or Westerners begin to stare and discriminate against Asian, however somehow I understand why they look down the culture of Asia that some part of Asia has still low level of civilization society. Like eating bats, dogs, stepping someone's feet and never say "sorry," yelling, burping in front of others. No wonder why some of westerners still ignore Asians. The classy way of living, speaking, manners, open mind and all sort of advanced things we should learn from Westerners(especially, English and American/Canadian). Thats why I am trying to integrate myself into the Anglo-culture. (As an Asian, Singapore is the great model for me, Not Japan) I hope that someday people will see me as I was born in some part of English speaking countries.

Lysol a spray used for parasite insects read the instruction on a spay existent since the decade of eighties one that cures is the human coronavirus!
Read the instructions if you come across that spray Lysol and you will understand at ones that this virus propaganda is nothing else but a stock marker made up disease globally to kill the Chinese import and export revenues on their economy !

Seasonal flu kills 291,000 to 646,000 people worldwide each year, according to a new estimate that's higher than the previous one of 250,000 to 500,000 deaths a year. The new figures from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other groups were published Dec. 13 in The Lancet medical journal. WTAF THE WAY THE MEDIA HAS REPORTED THIS IS DISGRACEFUL. THIS IS A COMPLETE OVER REACTION

The old coronavirus found in 2002, does not modify its own genetic code when it enters different blood types. This means that this virus is going to be a big headache for biologists. If there is anything worse to happen, it is facing global warming that has been melting the polar caps at an accelerated rate and throwing mutant bacteria and viruses into the sea that have been incubating in the feces and urine of dinosaurs in the ice for millions of years. The fish may be contaminated since it started in a fish market in China.

An estimated 32 million Americans have come down with influenza since this year’s flu season began in late September, resulting in about 18,000 deaths, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In contrast, as of Thursday, health officials have confirmed 97,876 cases of corona-virus infection resulting in 3,347 deaths across the entire globe. C'mon People, get a grip!

Current world population as of March 2020 is 7.8 billion. 100,000 divided by 7.8 billion, then multiplied by 100 yields a percentage of 0.00128% of the worlds population being infected going by this video’s number. Do with this information what you will.
