Coronavirus has already caused some apocalyptic headlines.
Causing enormous disruption in China, it has since spread globally, impacting on everything from Serie A football to the Six Nations tournament.
In a bizarre twist Peter Andre found himself at the centre of a viral storm, when a sign from one of his events emerged online.
The note from Southampton's Central Hall warned fans not to have "any physical contact" with Peter Andre, to help combat the spread of coronavirus.
