It's not the Corona Virus making Nasvillians sick, it's the Vandy bball team. Nothing to see here, move along.

Now there seems to be an agenda here.

I'd say the same had you posted Maddow or whoever the CNN equivalent is.

I don't generally watch any of that stuff from either side. Just happened to be a link I found. Don't have time for either "side".

No credible doctors have been saying this since its US spread has heated up (past ~5ish days).

This thing has been moving quickly, so if your information is out of date, then that's an honest mistake. However, you should stop spreading false info.

In fact, recent advise (from credible doctors) is for at-risk individuals to stay at home as much as possible and not travel.

We are not talking about Ebola. In the U.S. 15 of 21 deaths came from one nursing home. The medical care in many nursing homes is sub-par. Most of these patients have underlying medical problems.

Most doctors aren't epidemiologists, so that means most have no clue what they are talking about in regards to something like this, and you linked celebrity Dr Drew? Holy shite.

This is the type of doctor you should be listening to:

Do you really think this is fake news?

What numbers? The number of cases in the U.S is going up daily.

The mortality rate is still not good.

The number of cases can keep on rising, it's not going to change the fact that it's a mild virus and most people have nothing to worry about. Those who do have something to worry about have to worry about the regular flu already.

Don't know how old you are, but they do this shite about every 10 years. Always chicken littles like you saying how bad it is, always the media talking about how everyone is going to die, always a bunch of people who try to make money off it and fear monger and in the end the flu still ends up being more dangerous.

Actually, that's probably given this virus a bit too much credit, since it's not even as bad as the others, except for media attention which is way worse.

Beware you may catch a virus that isn't even as bad as the normal flu!

You are an idiot because every credible piece of information (both statistical and medical) disputes this.

No point in arguing with simpletons who refuse to actually think.

This kills at a higher rate than the flu, and it spreads more, so it kind of hurts your misinformed narrative

I was out and about today and no one is freaked out about this thing. Everyone went and brought hand sanitizer cause they were told to and it makes it look like it was mad rush. A stroll through my facebook (which I get on about once a week), looks like about 90% of the people are posting silly memes or gifs that seem to indicate they aren't concerned 2 sh*ts about this. The other 10% is the same 2 people posting headlines over and over to the point it is annoying.

is it just me or does it seem every three or four years we have a virus that is “ going to wipe out half the world’s population”? Swine Flu? Bird Flu? Ebola?

I think if you follow CDC recommendations chances of getting this will be reduced greatly. This too will pass and I’m willing to bet in a couple years there will be something else.

Well no one should be panicking, especially if there are no cases in your area.

By this logic, shouldn't we just shut down the airports? Roughly 1.8 million people fly in the USA every day.

March Madness will actually help, as 85% of the people watch it at home. And the stadium crowds can't even approach the number of people from flying. Why not stop the NBA season? XFL? MLB?
