Let me know when we start hearing about the almost 20,000 in this Country who are DEAD because of the common flu. Then explain why this is such a big deal?

The pure fact is the vast majority of those who claim to know about these things are saying we don’t know enough about this virus. So it seems as if you and others are scared to death because you blindly accept the end of the world scenarios the scare mongers love to spread.

BTW, I lived thru the Swine flu bs scare, The Avian flu the Aides scare of the 80’s which was a real beauty because then we were told the Aids virus was constantly mutating and there was little if any hope it would ever be contained and MILLIONS would die. How’d that work out?

You can sit in your little safe place and scare yourself to death by listening to all the conflicting info while of course only believing the worst while I will as I always do take reasonable precautions and wait until this all passes within about 45-60 days with real improvement being shown in a couple or three weeks.

Where are all of the smuggled out videos from China the last two weeks? If we accept the panicked projections of a month ago there should be hundreds of thousands of Chinese deaths, tens of millions of Chinese on respirators. It has obviously peaked in China. Remember the claims a month ago that it will ravage sub Saharan Africa with millions of deaths? No, that didn’t happen either. We are now at the point where we can compare the scare projections with facts. Just like with climate change, the panic mongers forget what they were saying would be happening now and go on to the next dire projection.
