I don't see what all the fuss is about. It doesn't look any more deadly than influenza.

@Lukeman It’s to cause fear and eventually take something away from citizens.

@MrBrownstone It's taken away media time spent on anything uplifting.

@Lukeman And if you notice in the US. Hardly ever talk about Coronovirus itself. Just not enough equipment or people.

@Lukeman The "fuss" is because this is a lot worse than the flu and it's probably going to get worse before it gets better.
"The coronavirus outbreak, however, is proving to be more deadly than the flu. It has killed roughly 2% of the people who have contracted it so far, according to world health officials. That compares with a mortality rate of 0.095% for the flu in the U.S., according to CDC estimates for the 2019-2020 flu season. The CDC estimates that 21 million people will eventually get the flu this season."

@YukikoAmagi Why?
@FindTheBlue people can't change their mind

@YukikoAmagi That's bullshit. Of course they can. It's just not always easy but it also depends on what it they believe in the first place. Religion? Probably not. But something like this? Yeah. I thought it wasn't a big deal at first, too.
