Still less dangerous than Measles.
But highly virulent. Imagine using CRISPR to make it also deadly or make you infertile.
Or let it mutate until it is.

Case count is still increasing, we haven't reach plateau (steady state) yet as can be seen from the graph.
 
Just a personal opinion. I certainly don't want to get it, but it doesn't seem even as deadly as the flu

CDC estimates that influenza has resulted in between 9 million – 45 million illnesses, between 140,000 – 810,000 hospitalizations and between 12,000 – 61,000 deaths annually since 2010.
 
I don't think your stats there back you up. From the graph posted above, it seems that at least in Chinese hospitals, nCOV2019 kills about 1/50 of those infected. According to your stats, flu kills up to 61e3 out of up to 45e6 infections, which is a ratio of about 1/750. The flu kills less people per infection, it's just spread a lot more widely, so the overall death rate is higher.
 
The flu likes to apply the Five Point Palm Exploding Heart Technique or delayed death if you will, though I don't know at what rate. Patients, that have had the flu are flu-ent in applying for heart transplants.
 
The question to me is whether it's infectious before people show a fever
Showing a fever would be called a symptom.
Here it says, the US CDC isn't convinced, yet, that it can spread during the incubation period
Here it says, the incubation period is between 2 and 10 days (first paragraph)

Though I heard, the Bavarians contracted the virus from a Chinese trainer, who only got sick afterwards.

I was talking shear numbers not ratios as we have no idea the age or underlying health issues of those dying which can absolutely affect the lethality of the disease.

For instance the average Chinese works constantly, is malnourished, and lives in a poor environment all of which will affect their immune system, their overall health and their ability to fight this disease. It would also make it appear more lethal than it is (see SARS and MERS) for everyone outside of China.

Also think about it for a hot minute the flu has yearly vaccines and STILL kills 12,000 - 61,000 every year. Hmm that seems a bit worse to me. Get the flu shot? Doesn't matter 1/750 chance of dying each year if you catch the flu.

For some reason this talk about the Corona virus strengthens my desire the Play Super Mario Sunshine on the Pyra.

As for the virus I'll probably survive it; I survived Ebola as well.

Any reason why Russia, South American countries and African countries are free of the Coronavirus?
That's already out of date. Two people in York (the original one in the UK) have been diagnosed with it. I'm slightly surprised that Africa is reportedly free, given the number of chinese out there checking on their money, but maybe they haven't got it yet, or maybe the clues in my use of the word 'reportedly'. Russia had suspected cases, but apparently nothing confirmed yet. And I guess South America is just so far away from China.

  • created 2015, patented 2018
    • On 19 juni 2015 a request was send to the European Patent Authority (EPA) under EP3172319A1 by the P**bright Institute.
    • On 20 november 2018 it was conceded.
  • contains parts similar to HIV
    • The best rebuttal I have read is this one.
      from the comments on the paper so you can all calm down:

      All four of the identified amino acid insertions are extremely short and are found in the genomes of many other organisms, not just HIV. In other words, the primary finding of this work are entirely a highly expected coincidence.

  • has a delayed payload
    • Shady website says that Chinese already tested a quick vaccine, which left the carrier with less immunoresistance.
  • You can get infected by drinking infected water
  • Mr. Fang Bing published a concealed video of the situation in the quarantene center in Wuhan, and was arrested. (note the link contains shocking images, PG18)

  • It caused a 600 point sell off in the Dow Jones on Friday,

maybe countries there have less money to spend on medical administration, like a CfDC (center for decease control)? Although each country has a redcross/redmoon.
