You are right, you are not a virologist and not a doctor. This disease has a high mortality, is affecting other species than birds and they think the victims die so fast that they have missed the early human cases where virus is in feces, blood, saliva and every organ fails. This is nothing to laugh about.
Here we are to consider a disease with a little understood etiology and an undetermined epidemiology and we are to gain by going into a state of panic?
have there been any US cases yet? I imagine it would pop up on the west coast first, lots of flights to Asia from those cities. I really worry it could come into the US through infected clothing - so much apparel is made in chinese factories and imported and placed on the shelves in US stores.
That's scary. How high of a mortality?
