So if we assume that COVID19 is equally as contagious as the seasonal flu (even though it appears to be more easily spread), and take into account that 26M get the flu each year despite having a vaccine which ~50% of the population gets, what does the math work out to be on that?
Now what is the impact if A) we acknowledge that this is more easily spread than the seasonal flu and B) we still don't know if warm weather will aid the reduction of spread? I don't think a 50M+ figure is an unreasonable estimate for total infected with a couple months.

I really don't see the whole tour being cancelled outright. As far as refunds, I assume the initial buyer will receive face value refunds, which they can then pass on to those who they sold to at face value.

We can use South Korea as a good guide: 6,593 infected // 42 dead // 0.637% death rate.
Given that the seasonal flu usually has a death rate of 0.1% on average, it's concerning that this appears to be more than 5x as deadly as the flu.
