And we still have people saying this is fear mongering and everything will be fine.
They'll be the first ones rioting.

I agree. We have more people die of the flu each year than China has people dying of the CoronaVirus. maybe this year will be an exception but with 4 times more people they could have 200,000 deaths and it would be similar to the USA flu death toll.
"CDC estimates that influenza has resulted in between 9 million – 45 million illnesses, between 140,000 – 810,000 hospitalizations and between 12,000 – 61,000 deaths annually since 2010."

I agree only because the flu kills way more but we don't talk about it because we are numb to it.

Humor is not really your strong point, is it?
The worst known pandemic event occurred only a century ago. It infected approximately 1/3 of the planet's population and killed around 50 million people world wide including over 600K Americans with around 1/4 of our population infected.

All I can say, is I've lived through so many of these events, with people (like you), running around inciting panic, for whatever reason. Maybe you get a buzz off thinking the sky is falling? I'm not sure.
But these things come and go. Life will go on.
This is when you fail 100%.
I didn't create or modify any information posted. I used information available to everybody from reliable sources and fully verifiable. Information posted by many members.
You don't want to accept facts. You can't debunk any information provided neither. You just don't want to believe it because you're scared.
