Report on the radio last night about research being done at Purdue University. Dr commenting that they believe an offshoot of the meds used to treat SARS looked promising.

Building a hospital? More likely preparing mass grave trenches, or if death count is low, a crematorium to burn infected bodies.

26 dead out of 830 cases

I wonder what the dead/sick ratio is in unreported cases. I would guess the lower classes are less likely to report anything, while the higher classes are more able to obtain standard medical treatment and therefore are reporting their cases. If the unreported cases are getting less treatment, their mortality rate would be higher. So the overall mortality rate is likely higher than 3%.
