Why would anyone be surprised?

DannyTN I HATE to say this but gt some balls man.

Some of you are more panicked than little girls in a fire.

“As someone who was in China during the initial outbreak/lockdowns and restrictions and seeing the situation develop here in the US I am 100x more concerned for my own safety during this crisis than I ever was in China,” he told Business Insider in a message.
