South by Southwest cancelled. Not good for all airlines, not just United.

They have about 150 planes parked. Severe schedule disruptions because of travel restrictions, like no flights from Germany to Israel allowed...
Finnair is going to 3 weeks of mandatory leave. Union pilots get 70% pay, non-union pilots get 0.

The flu death rate is 0.1% in the US, and about 2% worldwide. The official coronavirus death rate is now 3.4%, subject to change either way. I read that the actual death rate for a disease cannot be known until the pandemic is over. SARS was officially at 2% early on, and ended around 20%.

Or 11%, if you trust those know-nothings at the WHO.
