It’s incredibly hard for non-scientific folks to read a “scare article” on the potential societal impact of Coronavirus & know that they’re getting the truth — not too sensational & not too dismissive. This article strikes the right tone & balance, backing up a few realistic scenarios with sourced testimony from noted experts. It remains to be seen what will actually happen, but I feel more informed in a useful, non-sensationalized way after reading this article

I agree with all the other reviewers, this is a great read. It feels like one of the most honest articles I've read on the coronavirus, providing quotes and sources from every angle. I especially like the straight talk feel to it with health officials warning that this virus could "very well become another seasonal pathogen that causes pneumonia."

Lots of valuable information about a highly contagious virus which may very well be with us for a long while

This article's a month old but while we have more info about SARS-CoV-2, it has details I haven't seen elsewhere. And nothing yet falsified. I had a hard time choosing between “well sourced” and “great context.” I thought the analysis of how this virus might mutate, how its seasonal pattern might change, how much it could be subject to a vaccine that could wipe it out as we did smallpox, were all interesting if not definitive.
