Wuhan Corona Virus: How It Affects Stock Markets and Crude

A couple of articles on the Wuhan virus and one on potential investment impact.

I have typed in some stats for major viruses from last 20 years and so far Wuhan fatality rate is 3.7% vs 34.4% for SARS.

I dont know how good the Wuhan data are as it is still obviously quite early.
