Imagine Corona virus or any epidemic disease affected globally. As a result, all the economy will be affected and people will face hard time. Will not it bring an affect in economic balance? Which will turn into high inflation globally and it will result collapse of the banking system. Will it? In my country, the situation is getting worse for product which we are depended on China. I can see a significant inflation here if Corona Virus issue continued.

It affects the economy sorely, of course. It might cause high inflation considering that the production industry will be terribly affected. The banks will also be affected, of course. A lot of people are now trying to make ends meet using whatever they saved for the previous months and years. There will be much larger withdrawals than deposits. For sure, people will take their money from the banks because they badly need it. This is happening because the business sector, the main money-making sector of any society, is crippled by the spread of the virus. Many employee are laid off. And when people are deprived of their regular sources of income, the inflow of the banks will also get weak.

But coronavirus?  I don't think so.
I was not only reffering to coronavirus, but all other epidemic disease which may be seen in the future. However, don't take this corona virus such easy. Countries dependent on China are suffering heavily. You can see some stats on such countries.

I'm not an economist, and this is my own personal analysis, but I think it all depends on the level of fear and how serious the epidemic actually is.  With the coronavirus, there's a lot of fear but it doesn't seem to be the deadliest virus known to man--and I don't think the death toll is going to be outrageously high.  But it's the perception and people's reaction that affects their spending, productivity, and in the end, the economy.
The Corona virus today has 90000 cases on which I think is higher than what we had with severe acute reapiratory syndrome and middle east respiratory syndrome (SARS and MERS-COV) that number of cases is crazy knowing that it is just been a month or teo since we detected that disease. I'm quite skeptical about the Chinese economy since we aren't seeing a massive down from them, I see their economic losses as an effort to cure the disease as they built an entire full functioning hospital in just 3 days.

I think people are overreacting to the coronavirus outbreak, but that's not to say people shouldn't be concerned.  The media tends to make this stuff front-page news in an attempt to scare people into continuously watching TV and checking the news.  And yeah, I'm cynical about all of that.  If this was a virus that was a deadly as HIV was back in the 80s-90s, or ebola, then I'd say all the worry is justified and it might affect the global economy. 

But coronavirus?  I don't think so.
Health is wealth, why people would just be walking around when there is a virus. Come on man, this is not a kind of funny jump scare it is all about the expense of all human beings.

I believe if it will bring chaos and disaster to the world - whole stock market will be closed, most of exchanges won't work same way.
So if the disease will increase that much to affect market directly in any way - it will be the end of the market, because people won't think about profit but will think about surviving

Unfortunately when a pandemic strikes and it goes around    and strikes country after country not only banks but at the same time everything is bound to collapse , people are leaving their pets behind and fleeing .. the situation is uncontrollable in many countries.

I do think it can for sure cause a surge of prices inflation + at the same time no jobs will cause the whole system to collapse , where there won't be people to give service to or to provide any service to .
