COVID has a higher transmission and mortality rate than flu. That's why they don't compare.
I went to school with people who do this stuff for a living, and I work with people who do this stuff. I don't know which health officials some of you are talking to, but after being somewhat optimistic that this was going to get under control, it's been the last few days of talking to personal friends who are epidemiologists and medical doctors that have swayed me to take this seriously. When people who you know to be good scientists tell you as matter of factly as if they are telling you the weather that this will likely be an issue for at least the next three months and kill a helluvalot more people, unless you are just you got more chest than sense, you listen.
It's not going to end civilization, but it is going to be a rough couple of months. Be cool, don't panic, but don't be foolish.

I was talking to some of my friends and a few of my cousins and my Dad and my father-in-law and his side piece and they all were saying that this virus named Corona has only killed around two thousand or so people in shithole China were it originated.
And then my wife chimed in and said that the virus is already on a downturn in shithole China and they are in recovery from it already.
Now, I don't know about you, but I respect the frick out of their opinions and take them very seriously.

I just listened Dr. Friedman (ex head of the CDC) 5 mins ago.And he said "If ANYBODY yells you they know how this is going to end they don't know what they're talking about"
I'll go with what he said over your ex classmates.
