..I agree TS to the extent that this virus is nothing like ebola and life threatening now...(although it could still prove to be for extremely vulnerable..)...but because of the serious implications for pregnant females, still a global health emergency as we won't know the full extent of it until those children are born...and especially as many countries may not be able to provide any healthcare needed...
