The coronavirus has taken the world by storm.

It’s not the deadliest virus ever seen but it is extremely infectious.

This has resulted in strict quarantine procedures for possible candidates, which has in turn put a large portion of the population out of action in affected areas,

There are travel bans in place and we have seen panic buying activities.

One business commentator said “This is the largest restriction on the movement of people around the globe since World War II.”

Don’t Panic, Plan

Don’t panic we have seen other similar issues in the past, SARS, MERS, EBOLA etc. all of which were more deadly but less infectious.

What this tells us is that the biggest impact to your business is likely to be the unavailability of something; staff, customers, supplies, cash…

    • Write down things you can do to reduce the impact.
    • Rate the things you can do by impact on solving the problem and effort (this is a simple approach to assess cost /benefit)

Why be concerned about Coronavirus?

As you will be well aware Coronavirus extremely effective a spreading within our communities. It is not particularly deadly what is all the fuss about?
  • First there are a lot of unknowns which scare people.
  • Second It is highly infectious. far more than common flu and previous Coronaviruses e.g. SARS/MERS (but not as deadly)
  • Third people that are severely affected need intensive care, and may need help with breathing. This combined with the need to quarantine means the use of ICU units – these are in relatively short supply, making it easy for our hospital systems to overwhelmed.
    • The contagiousness of the virus also means that many staff will be unavailable (in quarantine) at any given time (when the Doctor in NSW tested positive over 50 other staff in the same hospital went into quarantine). How can we run hospitals without staff?
