Stuck inside for weeks with most of the cleaning supplies hoarded seems like a recipe to actually get sick.


Yeah, it’ll create some kind of sickness. Mental health sickness at a minimum.

They are trying to create an atmosphere of panic and paranoia. OK, I’m not saying people shouldn’t take precautions. We all should. But the media is behaving like this is the Spanish flu of 1918. That killed something like 700,000 Americans - 2% of the population - and 30 million people worldwide. At least as of now, this isn’t anything close to the H1N1 of 2009 but we’re reacting like it’s the Spanish flu.

“700,000 Americans - 2% of the population”

Math is hard.
