Out of 100,000 people with the flu only about 14 die in the US, so far coronovirus has killed over 250 people and only about 12,000 people infected, So yeah it is a big deal.
We bought extra canned goods yesterday but masks are unavailable online. We had orders cancelled for both gloves and masks but we found a box of nitrile gloves at Walmart. So there’s a run on these items. Also suggested has been safety glasses because the virus could enter through the eyes. They say to have one month supply of non perishable foods.

Yeah, know what you mean. Now I don't feel so bad about buying up a few extra masks and few extra can goods.

Indeed. Still not very comforting though.

But... no deaths, or even serious illnesses, in the US.
You cannot compare what is happening in China, considering their native environmental health issues, with what happens with the flu in the US.
