I never said anything about it not being real. It’s as real as SARS or Ebola or anything else we’ve seen. Some seem to be doing an excellent job of handling this (Singapore is a great example).

It is. Want to see why they were effective? Go here:

They have taken steps that we haven't even come close to in the US yet.

Uh huh....

And the cases are exploding in the US like they are in Iran and South Korea are they? No. We’ve had patients here for weeks (several recovered), and we’re only at 60. Stop being such a doomsayer. Yeah sensible precautions are warranted, but this is not the end of the world.

Or are you shorting the market? Is that your game with some of the other ‘sky is falling’ group? Playing the short?

Singapore is not a democratic country. It’s sort of a soft dictatorship. And it only has 5 1/2 million people.

You can do things there with the accepted levels of government control that you could never do in a country of 330+ million where everybody has individual rights.
