Iran could be our look at what happens when a country doesn't take drastic steps to keep people off the streets/contain this thing. 34 deaths so far including people high up in govt. 2 people in AUS and one in NYC who recently returned from Iran have tested positive.
It seems very likely there are more deaths that aren't diagnosed. Infected rate is almost meaningless imo in a country that isn't aggressively testing everyone with symptoms.
We could soon have another data point outside Wuhan as to what it looks like when this goes supernova in a population.
