I don’t believe the virus is a hoax but I think what R Paul is saying is like the Ukraine phone call the portrayal of it as a earth shattering event is a hoax.
I tend to agree with him. This thing is MASSIVELY overblown.
It is massively overblown, thanks to the media/Dems. The liberal mayors are closing entire cities bars, restaurants, etc which is seriously liable to create the next great depression.
Meanwhile, here’s an example. There are 94 cases in LA County Ca. There are 12M people (not counting a few illegals I”m sure). Approx .0008% rounded up, for the non math inclined that is les than a thousandth of a percent. In other words, should it increase by a multiplier of a thousand, 1% of the population would have it and 1-2% of those might be the death rate.
It’s not a hoax, but it’s exaggerated beyond belief.
