When you look at everything else that kills humans in great numbers, this wuhan flu hardly fits the definition of pandemic. A vast majority of the problem is the media hype.

So I should believe you more than Dr. Fauci who knows more about infectious diseases than probably anyone in this country. Sorry but this problem is not media hype. Unfortunately this problem is real and unlike anything I have experienced. It is also driving me crazy.

I base my opinion on world wide reports of this thing, not just the U.S. and by doing my own research instead of listening to the press in this country, specifically ignoring the press whose only goal appears to be getting trump in a gotcha moment every day rather than actually report the facts to the people.
I start here, the numbers appear to be updated as soon as they are available which is sometimes twice daily.....

Yep, the news networks are taking this to the bank!! Now they’re gonna put Fredo on a cross and martyr him to boost their ratings.
Your also correct that the Nazis that have takin over the Democratic Party are also loving this. They are using for their own benefits, agendas, and are deliberately doing things that will increase the infection and fatality rates for their own benefit.
How anyone can not only see this, but standup and be counted goose-stepping terrorists after this is simply baffling.

We are suddenly, as in the last month, able to specifically test for the wuhan flu in mass numbers. Grade school statistics should tell you that we will get a sudden increase in confirmed infections.

Pretty sure you saw the same programme, or at least something very similar to me a month or so ago.
The 1918 flu pandemic.
Starting with the young farmer in ... Kansas? wasn't it? A deviation of bird flu which the young man contracted, then got conscripted and took the disease to training camp, then his boat, then . well, pretty much everywhere.....
That develped into what ws called the "Spanish" flu thet killed more people than both World Wars put together.
Many people die from flu every year. The old, the young and the vulnerable. Those with underlyiing health issues.
THIS i\S NOT your ordinary bog standard winter chill. Surely you muct know this by now?
Countries don't shut borders 'cos a few people have the sniffles luv.
Even if you are strong and healthy and can fight off the virus, what about the other people that you come in to contact with? What if you spread the virus to you neighbours, their young children and elderly? You going to go to their funerals? Oh... wait... You won#t be able to, will you.
Natural selection?
Maybe it would be as well if some of us more robust mentally would stay alive, as well as the more physically robust..... jus' sayin'
Yeah, we're all gonna die, right?' :sick: :sick: :sick:

As usual, that didn't come across exatly how I meant. ::)
I just want some of you guys to be a little more considerate.
These measures wouldn't have been put in place WORLDWIDE if it was just your bog standard flu.
Right now you need to listen to the doctors, not the politicians.
Please, please be carefull peeps. :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:
