How long have we got ??

We will presumably take a few hundred of the most severe cases and treat them in our hospitals .. ..

Looks like there have been semi-regular outbreaks of this since 1998, and this is in fact the 4th "in Covid times", so I wouldn't be sounding the alarm horns just yet.

It's only spread by direct contact and seems like most cases are directly from the source (infected bats and/or pigs).
