Jehovah's Witnesses: The Corona Virus, a sign of the times?

The Corona Virus is in its infancy and at this point, no one knows its boundaries or how high the death toll will rise. However, we do know that it is a major global health concern. Like with prior diseases, a vaccine is sure to come by means of medical science.

Unfortunately, certain groups use these as opportunities to take advantage of the fears of individuals by scaring them. They seize the moment by creating an "end of the world" mentality.

Therefore, is the Corona Virus simply another disease that will go down in history as another illness that fades away in time or is it truly a sign of the times?
