Thousands infected as Coronavirus appears out of control in China. Worried?

Markets are tumbling as I write this because for now at least, China appears to have lost control of the Coronavirus outbreak.

There are at least five cases in the US and countries around the world are also starting to deal with it. At the last count, the death toll in China had ballooned to 81.

Aside from five confirmed cases in the US, the virus has now spread to France, South Korea, Japan, Nepal, Thailand, Cambodia, Singapore, Vietnam, Taiwan and Canada.

Despite the quarantine, as estimated five million people have left Wuhan - the source of the infection - and that city's mayor confirmed they did not release information in a timely manner.

So are you worried?
