Hopefully, knowledge and studies move forward to quickly cure this disease. I am a little glad that at least the transmission to the fetus is not confirmed and for now it seems that the mother cannot infect her own child before birth.

Hi @henry-9ja

The concern in this regard is very large despite the fact that no confirmed cases, I believe that the problem will arise after the baby is born, somehow will be exposed to that terrible Virus.
Now in the latest news I have read that they have already managed to separate a strain of that virus, now only the development of medicine is lacking.

Due to the recent appearance of this virus, there are still many studies to be carried out.
There are still many things to learn about their behavior and effects on humans.

Although the authorities are very busy attending to the infected, millions of dollars are also being allocated to find an effective treatment and carry out the relevant investigations.

We'll keep waiting the news about this terrible disease, but for now I sow in my heart the hope it doesn't get passed from mothers to their offsprings.

My Chinese friends report that some of them are beginning to be discriminated for this tragedy... Imagine what such experience would mean to a little child.

The possibility of millions dying with this epidemic isn't feasible but thousands is more like. Only about 1k+ have died of this virus, if the cause can be found soonest then the problem will start getting a solution. As for number of infected, it can get to hundreds of thousands.
