Anyway, this is how a really good virus story starts...first there's an outbreak and the media freaks out. Then the government gets involved and says it's not really a big deal so people calm down a little, then things start happening and before you know it, it's too late and everyone dies!!! Mwahahaha. I hope I'm not living in a virus story. It seems so contradictory to just say; wash your hands, stay home if you're sick, more people have died from influenza, and in the same breath say, travel is restricted, no spectators allowed at spectator sporting events, schools are closed, public libraries are closed, concerts and festivals are postponed, etc. I'm getting emails from places like Lowes, Kroger and PetSmart telling me what they're doing to help prevent the spread of the virus in their store. I've never seen anything like it, it's SO CRAZY!
I am a procurement agent work. You would not believe all the crazy requests I got last week. Gloves, masks, hand sanitizer, sanitizing wipes. Guess what I said! NO. Hahahahaha. Wash your hands.
It would be more helpful if they would just say, doctors and hospitals are not equipped to handle the number of people flooding into them, with the flu and corona virus. Be honest. Tell us the actual facts. Say to us, the mortality rate of COVID19 is about 2.0% vs 0.1% for the flu. The rate at which it is spread is 2.5, which means one person will infect 2 1/2 other people. The flu is 1.3 Be serious, not chaotic! You know, unless it's a virus story. In which case we're ALL screwed!! I think I'll go ahead and have that donut tomorrow morning and fries with dinner along with big rum and coke! What the hell.
