So far the death rate is about 2% of hospitalized patients in China, but there are many more infected who had none or mild symptoms and weren’t hospitalized, so therefore didn’t get counted in the total.

When a new virus hits it does cause more alarm since we haven't seen what it has been capable of yet and what the patterns of transmission, infection rates, and severity etc are so we definitely want to be more cautious.

my non educated guess is we will see some panic.. some investors decide to just hold their cards tight right now.I think landlords may experience some tenants that cant work becasue their jobs are affected not necessarily they are infected .. but they lose hours at vocations that are at risk/  Like cruise industry, airlines  Hotels  convention services those types of things.. and i guess really restaurants.. as the stock market retreats I think that will create some amount of flight to real estate for more stable investments even if its just parking money for low returns. 

Infection is theoretically possible but unlikely at the levels remaining after a few days.

“Since 1980, we have never missed a single month of rent,” said Claudia Nuñez, another tenant on strike who said she was infected with the coronavirus.

At this point I don’t care about my reputation being ruined by this guy, because I know there is plenty out there that anyone who is really looking in to me will find me.The fact that there will be so many losing to scams like this over the following months is why I am doing everything I can to stop this guy at least. the fake lender scammers have been infecting real estate for a good decade now.. 

Tenant has a job and healthy, no Covid-19 infection.

School is done, stores and restaurants will open back up, people will start to travel, sun will kill off the virus and reduce the number of infections, and people will be tired of all the nonsense. 

Due to lack of widespread testing I believe that this virus has infected way more people than we currently know and I suspect the actual mortality rate to be a lot lower than what is being reported. 

But for remote short term rental owners worried about the revenue, I am not in your side. in Eastern Pennsylvania,  owners were advertising we were a coronavirus free Haven , which of course was not true, and we were getting people trying to flee the New York and New Jersey hotspots bringing their infection with him an overwhelming Pocono hospitals. we don't want them here.
