Moody’s said virus can affect travel to Australia

coronavirus


According to Moody’s, Australia’s travel sector could be “significantly affected” from the outbreak of the new virus from China.  To be more specific, especially if constraints are forced on international touring to stop the virus from spreading. The strange coronavirus has contaminated hundreds in China, and officials have announced that the current outbreak originating from Wuhan, China has already killed 25 people. The senior vice president at Moody’s, Arnon Musiker said yesterday “While the World Health Organization (WHO) has to date not recommended any travel restrictions, if the effect on regional travel is similar to that during the SARS outbreak in 2003, passenger volumes between Asian destinations particularly China and Australia could be significantly affected over the next 2-3 quarters”.

Oil retraced, but demand is still down


On Friday, Oil moved up supported by a drop in U.S. crude stockpiles. However, Oil is still on course to decline more than to 4% for the week due to concerns that China's new mysterious virus that has already caused the death of 25 people so far may spread, restricting travel and as a result the demand for fuel may decrease. U.S. West Texas Intermediate futures rose 24 cents at $55.83 a barrel. Brent crude futures increased by 24 cents, at $62.28 a barrel following a drop of almost 2% in the previous day.
