Well according to that site right now there's 113,579 cases and 62,496 recovered. Not sure if that is 62,496 recovered out of the 113,579 cases or if those recovered people are no longer considered cases.
Either way, even if it's 62k out of 113k recovered, that's only based off of confirmed cases. We know that in the US right now we aren't even testing people. You could probably multiple confirmed cases by 10 and be more accurate to actual infected people.

And conversely you could not only have more confirmed cases, but also more confirmed recoveries. This could actually skew the deadliness of Covid 19 downward.
Once again, so much speculation and fear mongering.

Nope, you better look around, because that's the land of make believe you are seeing.

I guess I would agree if it were not for the countless infectious disease experts that have been ringing the warning bells for decades about this type of virus. Or the fact that infectious disease has almost wiped us out a few times as a species.
regardless if you are right or not, it's too late. The panic has set in and we are going to suffer great consequences at this point. So we have moved from initial panic to panic about the panic. And this is just the beginning.
Ultimately I think this will all be really healthy for us as a society but it will be painful. We'll hopefully become less reliant on china's manufacturing and importing goods. Hopefully this will high-lite the flaws in many of our systems and allow us to fix them.

I agree, the compounding panic is real, and I too hope we come out better once it's all slowed down and we can catch our breath.

No shit about the toiletpaper 
Grab a bunch of plastic bags if you havent already, KOMO trash bags, bin bags and sandwich bags. Costs next to noting but very useful around the house.

You should go work for Trump. The diseases COVID-19 is caused by SARS-CoV-2. In other words, this is literally an evolved version of SARS, original bat SARS, that went through a pangolin.
This is literally SARS-2.
Abundantly, this is the second variety of the SARS virus:
SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME - 2.
20% of people gets a severe acute respiratory syndrome of this, a strong viral pneumonia.
I don't understand how you can be following the Johns Hopkins page and still call this "another flu".
Didnt you watch Iran and Italy get rammed in mere days while all over the world, countries graduate to the next order of magnitude? Are we watching the evolution of the same graph?
I Havent plugged my TV in in almost a year, i go on my own fact finding missions, I dont even follow the media.
You have beef with the media and you dont want your sheltered life to get assraped so you are in denial. COVID will come to you as an involuntary suppository, just like for the people of so many countries now.
Enjoy your denial, but it is crossing off the days you have left to prepare.

Had you read the link I posted you’d I already said what you said. Maybe you should work for Trump.
Stop making stuff up, I never said it was another flu. Nothing in your post contradicts anything I’ve posted, don’t let Tinkerbell, Rufio, or Captain Hook tell you that it has.

https://www.who.int/health-topics/coronavirus
Here's me with facts, there's you guys hanging out with Mickey Mouse and Captain Jack Sparrow.
Here's the very first paragraph from the link you cherry picked to prove your point. In YOUR link It says Coronaviruses(Notice the plural use of the word coronavirus) (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been previously identified in humans."
So no this strain of coronavirus COVID19 DOES NOT range from the common cold to severe respiratory disease the CLASS of coronoviruses in general range from the common cold to SARS variants which COVID19 is.
It just goes to show how little you looked into your own link in the first paragraph just to try and prove your point. That's how things spiral out of control is people thinking like this and wanting so much to be right they don't care if it spreads disinformation and actively undermines efforts to stop this from being a true plague event.

That changes nothing about what I said and in fact supports my point, which is why I provided the link.

I really think that only time will tell where this goes, I think preventive measures and leaning on the side of caution never hurt.
It's a simple scenario where you plan for the worst and hope for the best.

Because you're being intentionally dense, here's another quote from the website.
Quote:
What are the symptoms of COVID-19? The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and begin gradually. Some people become infected but don’t develop any symptoms and don't feel unwell. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment. Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness. People with fever, cough and difficulty breathing should seek medical attention.
Then if you google "what is the common cold?" You get this;
Quote:
The common cold, also known simply as a cold, is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract that primarily affects the nose. The throat, sinuses, and larynx may also be affected. Signs and symptoms may appear less than two days after exposure to the virus.
Oh boy, lot's of similarities. Not only do caronaviruses cause the common cold, a new carnivorous has very similar symptoms. Of course I've said that Covid 19 may have more severe symptoms. But you've chosen to ignore that, as it's more fun to chill with Popeye and Olive.
Let's remember that according to Johns Hopkins recoveries are outpacing new cases, and according to WHO 80% recover without any treatment. Of course since lots of cases go unreported, it's likely that 80% is too low.
Keep up the imagination though.

I keep saying that time will tell. I have no issues with playing it safe, but I'm also not going to sit around and tell scary camp fire stories about Covid 19 eating children in their tents.
