WHO decides it's not a Pandemic24 Feb 2020 12:05
From the WHO - A pandemic is the worldwide spread of a new disease. A disease or condition is not a pandemic merely because it is widespread or kills many people; it must also be infectious.
A pandemic is defined as “an epidemic occurring worldwide, or over a very wide area, crossing international boundaries and usually affecting a large number of people"
So we are not there yet but it may well be coming if areas cannot be contained.
Hence why quick and accurate testing is required = NCYT. Of course DYOR!
