That is the exact same defense my GF says I'm using. Yes, I joke about it a lot, yes, I've posted some pretty funny memes (most of which I've made) about it and yes, I say some pretty outrageous things about it, that does not mean however I'm not being reasonable and practical in my approach to dealing with it.
Personally, I think so much of the hype is so far over-blown you can literally see the panic in people's faces in the grocery stores.
The lying liberal media and the democrats who are obviously looking to make political hay over all this should be ashamed of themselves.
They won't be, because they have no shame, but they should.
In closing, IMO the lying liberal lamestream media is a far more deadly virus than this Wuhan China virus is.
Ignorance kills, folks. And that's what the media's been peddling since all this has started.
Don't fall for the panic. Use your brains. Logic & reason saves. Ignorance & panic kills.

The economic impact of all this is going to be heavy and could well lead to recession. Now, these democrat politicians...mayors, governors etc ...with all their draconian over the top restrictions, closings, quarantines wouldn’t be so cynical as to hope this concerted effort will hurt Trump would they?
