There are 195 countries in the World. I took one off the table, and left some really low hanging fruit. Just pick one out of 194 others........

Give me a break with this bullsh. What I am saying is this mass hysteria has got to stop.

Panic and hoarding toilet paper aren't doing any good.
I've got non refundable tickets and hotels booked too, what is panic gonna do to help that?
It sucks, but it'll be gone in a month and the panic will have done nothing but create un necessary fear and crash the economy.
Your Paul Revere act is ridiculous...
Why was I the only one telling the guy wanting to go to Mexico he better be careful? Nearly every single post was "Why would you not go?" "I'd go in a heartbeat and not worry one second"
But you claim everyone saw it coming? Which is it? You and everyone saw and were screwing that guy or didn't see it affecting us this much.

I’m not saying that sometimes there aren’t shenanigans afoot. But unless we really are living in the matrix, this would be a hard one to orchestrate.

Less than 100 people have died from this thing and the VAST majority were senior citizens, and a large percentage of those were in 1 nursing home. Estimates are that maybe 1/2 of the cases have actually been reported.
H1N1 hit 60 million people in the US in '09 and killed 22,000, and we managed to get by without shutting the **** planet down.
This is a serious illness, it's not as serious as some we've seen before, aside from the media playing on weak minded fools for the purpose of political gain.

We have a few cases BECAUSE WE AREN’T TESTING! It took far too long for us the ramp up government and private sector testing. We are still way behind relative to places like S. Korea. Any medical professional will tell you that. Your can’t get ahead of this if we don’t have wide spread testing. You look at how many test per million people in the population.
The LabCorp rep told me today that the test cost $3200. Who’s paying for that? So hospitals are having a hard time getting testing done but the entire Utah Jazz team can get test??? And it takes 3-4 days. Korea is knocking these out in 10 hrs. It’s a failure at the CDC level.
