Amarin Corp Plc (AMRN)

[Whalatane]

So the relevance ( spread of COVID19 ) to Amarin is the risk to marketing efforts

Mohamed A. El-Erian

And now, the first reported US #coronavirus death.
Coupled with news of cases in #Italy topping 1,000, this is likely to amplify unsettling uncertainties about about the spread and consequences of this virus -- leading risk averse/neutral people to curtail lots of activities.

El -Erian is an economist I respect

So we are now hearing of transmission in a care facility in Washington state . So COVID19 is likely to be spreading rapidly and even tho 80% of those infected may only experience a cold / flu like experience with a fever ...theres a real possibility those who a really risk adverse will avoid gatherings like ACC20 where AMRN has spent considerable effort on presentations . ......not to mention the peer to peer presentations planned.
