Woman who recovered from coronavirus says hysteria 'out of control': I don't get why the toilet paper is gone
Fox News ^ | March 13, 2020 | Joshua Nelson

Former coronavirus patient Jerri Jorgensen said Friday that the hysteria surrounding the coronavirus has “gotten out of control,” recalling when she was barred from a gym after undergoing quarantine.

“All the toilet paper being gone -- I don’t get the toilet paper,” Jorgensen told “Fox & Friends.”

Jorgensen said that afterward when she got home, the gym’s management called her to tell her to stay away to keep the “senior citizens” safe.

“I go, ‘I am a senior citizen! Wait, what about me?'” Jorgensen said. “And I am the safest one in the gym, probably the safest one in Utah because I’ve been through quarantine and tested more than once negative.”

“And I have a letter from the Centers for Disease Control so it is what it is,” she added.

That seems to be what’s going on. Unfortunately there are going to be a lot of people who don’t know that and are expecting a preventative; they’re going to be looking for someone to blame when they eventually get it.

This is what we’ve been trying to say for a month now.

The percent this or that doesn’t really matter. The only question is do we have enough hospital beds, icu beds and ventilators for whoever needs them when they’re needed. Including heart attacks, strokes, accident victims, traumatic childbirths, etc.

And for this we took much abuse over ‘it’s just a bad cold’.

Replace “a bad cold” with “another flu”, and that would be me. The thing is, both are correct. They are not mutually exclusive. The problem is that folks are focusing on one aspect and ignoring another. And when the flu kills far more than this was killing, the case for limiting the SPEED of the spread was not being made very well.

I was a late comer to the idea regarding why we need slow (rather than prevent) the spread.
