2. 2.4% death rate with 132 dead. Taking that number out to 50 states = 6,600 which is less than the 2009 H1N1 flu pandemic. So what are we not being told? Why shut everything down?
3. I do not want to see anyone die, but I have never see actions such as these by the governments.
Sorry I can’t seem to post graphics here, but take a look at this graph from this Reddit site:

Long and short of it, there’s a LOT steeper slope on the Coronavirus when you look at the number of days from outbreak due to the nature of the spread (infected people don’t know they’re infected AND can transmit before symptoms).
I’ve caught a few glimpses of the references to the “Wuhan Biolab 4” that this may have emanated from. Regardless of your views on this, treat this as a bioweapon that got loose (NOT saying intentional or implying it is), and it seems to have those characteristics and should be treated as such. And if you’re skeptical still on treating this seriously, remember the catholic church has essentially cancelled all mass schedules for Lent/Easter. That’s never been done in it’s history that I’m aware of.
