Did the panic merchants fail again?

Every once in a while there is a panic over nothing but with massive hype by the panic merchants. The corona virus is just one more for the note book. This one seems to be all about getting rid of Trump. The panic merchants have the public fighting over toilet paper when the death rate from the disease is about 0.1% and that predominantly among the elderly and those with compromised immune systems.

@Entwistle Is that the same WHO that said there was nothing wrong when China first started reporting cases? The WHO is the last group anyone should rely on regarding health information. Virologists, epidemiologists who have no agenda are much more reliable.

@MalteseFalconPunch The point I am making is that it is far better to have an informed population and not a bunch of frightened sheep running scared. What bugs me no end is when politics gets involved in otherwise rational discussions.

Yes, they will use or try anything.

Yeah, the Coronavirus. The virus that has spread worldwide and has killed many and made many more sick is all about getting rid of Trump. 🙄

@hippyjoe1955 Where have I ever said a mild flu will be killing everyone on the planet?
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@Entwistle You have a phobia of corona virus which is a mild flu.
Entwistle · 56-60, M
@hippyjoe1955 I have no phobia of Corona virus. I even replied earlier in another topic that I am not worried about it.

Go to Italy and tell them to not worry.
SW-User
@hippyjoe1955 you caught that detail..
Good.

Did you also hear that the entire country is locked down? That was my point.
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@SW-User Yes I know Italy is locked down. How silly can you get. Nobody moves no one gets hurt at its finest. Let me answer by saying - Is there anything more dangerous than living?
SW-User
@hippyjoe1955 we were born to die
Entwistle · 56-60, M
The figure I read is that it's fatal in 2% of people who catch it.
This is not a political thing it's a killer virus. We have no vaccine for it,its going to become a pandemic. That's not me panicking..

They are making a big fuss over the number of deaths, they leave out the part that most were from a nursing home.

China blames Trump as well. I wonder if China is actually helping the mainstream media
hippyjoe1955 · 70-79, M
@FreestyleArt I don't think the Chinese are helping the media in any real or financial manner. I simply observe that the media in the US is controlled by the government complex. If the 'government' decides it wants a war then the media will provide cover and help bring the American people to the point of demanding a war. Witness Bush and Iraq.

@hippyjoe1955 still...there's always fishy about the Chinese Government. Why would they arrest it's own doctors trying to point out the real problem? I know it came from a lab. To me there is something up and I don't think these sneaky mother fuckers will end letter on. They already manipulate a world map that came from China.

They're trying to collect data and spy the outside world from a Cell Phone Company it's hard to pronounce the Company name starts with an H. I can't really get all the information out because if I did, Chances are when I come back the whole thing will be deleted automatically. That's what suck about this website

@FreestyleArt Dictators tend to be nasty people. I don't expect anything less of the Chinese government. They think that any slur against China is a slur against them personally. No way they can let a critic speak freely even if the guy was trying to prevent the spread of a disease.
SimplyTracie · 26-30, F
Hmmm I read that the death rate is upwards of 3%. Must be more fake news. 🙄
strongbow · 46-50, M
Yup, and funny how this all came about very shortly after the dems complete failure at impeachment
