I dont think the death toll is the major issue, it's how contagious the virus seems to be and how long people are ill for. If it continues to spread the main issue for the majority of people will be having time off work sick. But if the final fatality rate is 2% then it will soon catch up with other viruses/diseases if it isnt controlled.
I'm hoping the markets are at about the bottom of the drop but they could still go lower over next week if the spread outside china continues to accelerate.
