I hope he’s going to get the docs to try to calm everybody down, because the media is nuts. If we reported every new case of the flu going the year, people would be cowering in terror. But we don’t. So why is this different?

Incidentally, I recently saw an article pointing out that people are not canceling travel because they’re worried about the disease, but about government overreaction, such as mass quarantine, that would make them unable to leave. That’s what I did last week because I was going to New York but nyc was fantasizing about shutting down public transit and locking up the city.
