CORONAVIRUS A TRUE PANDEMIC AND NOT EPIDEMIC DISEASE!

Media all around the world, mostly in the USA, is always talking about coronavirus disease as an epidemy, epidemic, but let´s understand these different words:

Endemic = (of a disease or condition) regularly found among particular people or in a certain area. Exampe: chicken pox.

Epidemy = the definition of an epidemic is an outbreak of disease that occurs on a ground scale or a community-wide level. Example: SARS - Sever Acute Respiratory Syndrome. 

Pandemy = is an epidemic of disease that has spread across a large region; for instance multiple continents, or worldwide a look at his interview. Example: AIDS.

So coronavirus disease is a pandemic one, very serious!

What Steve Bannon is saying on this video below about API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients - basic compounds the drugs are made of) is very true.

Probably around 90% of APIs production of generic medical drugs are done in China. If the world do not start producing mainly antibiotics in the next 30 to 60 days, expecting that coronavirus "epidemy" will be controlled, we will observe a pandemy of SEVERAL OTHER BACTERIAL diseases decimating people all around the world. Let´s pray for this pandemy be just like any other seasonal one (it does not look like so) and not the horseman of the Apocalypsis.
