It was only a partial joke.
The unfortunate reality is that coronavirus is not a new thing, SARS-cov and MERS-cov were both coronavirus. This just happens to be a different strand of what we've seen before. I'm not sure if it'll be seasonal in the sense that it'll be a regular, but we will most likely see a new coronavirus strand even if vaccines are developed for COVID-19.
Only thing I will say is in the future most countries will likely immediately lock down travel to the regions impacted but way to early to know.
