Can Coronavirus cause major delays with these figures or is the factory in America?

It may have an impact, we don't know yet.

I just hope we all live long enough to see the figures made!

There's no way of knowing unless something is announced. It depends on what province the factory is in, since the virus has impacted different regions in China to different degrees. Some areas seem to be close to normal production, and others probably won't be there for some time.

Too soon to tell (the timeframe is too far out and I don't know where they're production sites are), but I think we're in for a rough year. If you think d-d-distribution problems are a thing now, this has the potential to reach new levels.
I'm more worried about big picture things though lol

This is all hysteria. A few more months and everything will be "normal" again

I expect zero real effect. Another month and everyone will have forgotten this random strain ever even existed

Still no vaccine, still no sign of the virus slowing down. Fellas, please take precaution and understand the severity. There is a likelihood factories could shut down, very possible. I keep seeing people say how the virus is overblown and not a big deal, it is.

Seriously, people are thinking this will kill them.
Leave it to the media to drive home the idea that a healthy teen - middle aged person will be killed by something that arguably has less impact than a common flu. Also leave it to the media to neglect the stats that matter... Like a 97% recovery rate, and only 3% of recorded cases being fatal. Which is mainly those either elderly, poor immune system, poor health (Current illnesses), or a combination of all three.

We need to protect those three (closer to four) percent. For most, it is something they can be reasonably assured that they will recover, easily, but being careless about their own health directly impacts others, in this case.

I keep seeing people say how the virus is overblown and not a big deal, it is. Factories have already been shut down for some time in some of the hardest hit areas of China. Indicators are that production is picking up again in most regions, but that should definitely be taken with a grain of salt. But no question please everyone be mindful. Yes, it sucks to have day to day routines interrupted, sporting events cancelled, etc. Containing the spread as much as possible is quite literally life or death for people's parents, grandparents, and those with serious medical conditions. We've been pretty lucky in the US that, as far as we know, the clusters have largely hit affluent communities with insurance, access to health care, and resources to quarantine for days or weeks. If it starts spreading rapidly among poor, uninsured, homeless, etc, it's going to be ugly.

That's the point they should be making. Reassuring healthy teen - middle aged people that it won't have a large impact on them, and that it'll largely affect those like i mentioned. All while driving home the point of hygiene and cleanliness to not only protect people like that, but just to minimise the spread as best as possible. They should also be making it a priority to share the recovery rate and assure people that even if they get it, there's a high chance they'll recover.

I keep seeing people say how the virus is overblown and not a big deal, it is. My province is already testing a vaccine. Message of the day, don't with Canadians and their hockey.

It’s killing tons of guys my age 37, it doesn’t care about your age.
Sports might be done forever, so might toys.
