No need to panic over the corona virus at this point according to an infectious disease specialist at Mercy Hospital and Trauma Center in Janesville. Dr. Mark Mounajjed considers the flu and other hazards a much greater risk. Mounajjed says the risk of an average person in our area contracting the virus, or even dying, is extremely low. He says you’re more likely to die from the flu or a car crash on a bad road. The Doctor also says all confirmed cases in the U-S so far have direct links to where the outbreak began in China.
