Are you kind?

Greater damage: The virus itself or our reaction to it?

I respectfully disagree. This is an opportunity to prepare for bio-terrorizm

I’m sorry, have you heard nothing about Italy?
-

Right now, 2/100 of 1% of the population of Italy is infected

The virus appears to have a 10% hospitalization rate

...which is enough to totally overwhelm there health care system

This is the problem of hyper-focusing on a statistically insignificant issue.
-

Not in Italy.

You're proving my point, let's hyper-focus on Italy.

It’s a place which initially didn’t overreact, that’s why.

Our response thus far has been like Italy's
-
ND_in_DRO
- 9:21am 3/13/20
I don't think our infrastructure supports that type of response.
-
iairishcheeks
- 9:33am 3/13/20
It could very quickly

Imagine this scenario, which is starting to feel likely.

Word is this has happened to a family friend in Atlanta, school closed indefinitely, no daycare.

Not sure, but it's happening in WalMarts across the country.

“Social media panic.” You’re an anti-vaxxer too, I take it?

This is one of your more bizarre false assumptive correlations.
-
iairishcheeks
- 9:15am 3/13/20
No, anti-vaxxers get their info from internet dopes and ignore the experts
-
Chris94
- 9:29am 3/13/20
You should be agreeing with me here.
-

I do agree that people should get off Twitter. it creates panic.
-

Untrue, the CDC recommends keeping K-12 schools open in most cases.

Oh pshaw

I wonder how many of these "outbreaks" occurred pre-social media fanning the flames.

Right! There were no epidemics before Twitter. Good point.

Corona is a pandemic, the panic is the epidemic at the moment.

The CDC, Orange’s own govt says that worst case we could have over 1 million deaths if this isn’t

This is what I'm more worried about, not the virus, the crazy people

Update: you might be right, but not in the way you think

Trump's language has 1/3 of our country thinking this is no big deal.

Twitter is a menace to society.

And what are your thoughts on guns?
[NT]
-
jimbasil
- 8:32am 3/13/20
They're an inanimate object that can be used for good or bad.
-
iairishcheeks
- 8:47am 3/13/20
Would you compare the two?
[NT]
-
jimbasil
- 9:51am 3/13/20
Not at all, guns are regulated and the vast majority of users are responsible and aren't anonymous.
[NT]
-
iairishcheeks
- 10:01am 3/13/20
Then no twitter users are responsible and they're anonymous?

It's not a binary decision tree Jim, where are you going with this?
