This virus spread faster and fatality among weaker immune systems is much higher.
This is a new virus for humans, so the intensity is much higher.
President is trying not to overwhelm hospitals with lot of patients at one time and things get out of hand.

To make a curve as a little bump, not peak, means not having lot of patients at one time.

It’s better to control spreading of the virus then having lot of patients in hospitals at one point.

Let me tell you, the majority of people will get this virus, but it may take 3-5 years.

Common flu we get is different strains from previous outbreak hit sometimes in your life.

Coronaviruses are named for their crown-like shape, and were first identified in the mid-1960s. The virus typically causes respiratory illnesses like the common cold.

Seven coronaviruses are known to infect humans.

The coronavirus originating in Wuhan, China, is baffling experts searching for the source. Since the virus is considered novel, it’s a type of virus that has never been encountered before.
