Coronavirus (COVID-19) Update (March 6, 2020) with pulmonologist & critical care specialist Roger Seheult, MD of https://www.MedCram.com.

South Korea has tested over 140,000 people for COVID-19 and their data may give the best insight into a more accurate fatality rate, and how quickly the new coronavirus can spread. Dr. Seheult illustrates how this coronavirus actually replicates within human cells - which is key to understanding how potential treatments and supplements such as zinc may aid in prevention.
