Investors and pundits are looking at the impact of the coronavirus and predicting some dire economic times ahead.
Franklin was shocked, he told Business Insider, because the coronavirus hadn't yet seriously hampered sales. He was still on track to close deals and felt he had a reasonably full pipeline to pursue in the next quarter or whenever the world recovered from the pandemic, he said.

Panic and fear will do more damage than the virus !!! Even if 3% of all the people of the world would die (which is NOT the case as not all will be infected), it means that 97% of all people and 99% of the ones below 75 will survive. How is that for a FULL VASE ? We must go on !
that statistic of preventing 200 deaths presumes they wont get infected later or via some other method. Misleading at best
