Unless I get really sick, no change in plans for me.....
I'm more woke bro, I gets mine from Facebook. That's how I know Trump workz for the Russians.I get the most fair, fast, and accurate information from CNN.
They ALL have an agenda. CNN, MSNBC, Fox, NPR, etc., etc.
Two infected Jazz players - gobert and mitchell. NCAA announced march madness will be played without fans, but I am guessing they could easily postpone or cancel the tournament. I am still planning on flying home for my annual spring bear hunt, but things are fluid and can change.Just saw the NBA has suspended all games till further notice due to am infected player
I hope I'm wrong, but I think it's going to be some crazy times
Maybe - but the coronavirus isnt the flu. Its way worse, even if you are young and healthy and get it. Scar tissue in the lungs etc. things that can impact your life for more than a few weeks.
Again, I am not disputing anything about what it does, is, severity, life altering, physically impairing or anything else that it can do to harm you. My comments are solely directed towards the excessive media attention that is causing massive hysteria throughout our country and world when there are other things that have far more abilities to come in contact with and cause serious health problems, including death, the media never mentions. One doesn't have to look back very far to see how a similar situation with the avairian virus (Bird Flu) started a similar impact by the news media. To create a massive hysteria over the Covid-19 virus at this time that is bringing so much panic, fear and economic instability I feel is ridiculous and extremely overblown reaction.Maybe - but the coronavirus isnt the flu.

And you don't realize that flu can cause the same issues? Most people who die from the flu die from pulmonary infections caused by the flu and those who survive the pulmonary infections have scared lungs as well.Maybe - but the coronavirus isnt the flu.

Really don't know what narrative to believe
Again, I only am comparing hysteria driven by the media. As a former professional in the health industry I am totally aware of what is being reported through medical media regarding how Covid-19 virus effects patients clinically from what has been ascertained thus far.
It isn't the news media that canceled the NBA or the MLS or are running the NCAA tournament without any fans. If you think they are making those decisions out of pure fear and fake news you are kidding yourself.Again, I only am comparing hysteria driven by the media.

The major issues that should be reported by the news media should be how to avoid contacting the virus which, just so happens, is similar to any air-spead pathogen like influenza. Keep a six foot or more corridor between you and others, cover your mouth when coughing with your elbow if you don't have something else and keep your hands washed and clean as possible.
But, to cause massive hysteria that will kill our country and others economically by the news media when we have other viruses that are killing far larger numbers of people never is reported and we have the means of inoculation that most don't use. Example, if you could get a shot right now to protect you from the Coronavirus, would you? Of course, as fast as you could roll up your sleeve. But, because you aren't made aware of influenza capable of causing a similar end result, because you have heard the word flu all of your life it seems somewhat insignificant even though what is called strains of flu are always different from year to year.
The media has hyped this up like it's the new plague of our world and it isn't.
If fear of catching the virus is not causing it, what is? I want to be clear. I, like everyone else, don't want to contact the Coronavirus. I am a senior citizen with pulmonary issues and would most likely be a casualty. Sometimes schools are closed when severe outbreaks of flu create loss of enrollment numbers. But, are we being proactive to close our business and everything else on the chance someone might possibly be there who has been exposed when very few cases have happened in millions of people? The medical community is totally in agreement with what I have said. The media is starting to acknowledge what they are saying but it is probably a little bit late. I am done with arguing my point. What you just said totally proved it.It isn't the news media that canceled the NBA or the MLS or are running the NCAA tournament without any fans. If you think they are making those decisions out of pure fear and fake news you are kidding yourself.
