firstly no this isn't only a threat to the weak and elderly and this pandemic is going to continue to get worse as the cases continue to grow exponentially and continue to overwhelm healthcare systems across the globe. i have family who work in the healthcare system and there are many facts not known about the virus even to experts as it's so novel which is scary. some known facts are: it is incredibly contagious, it is 10-15x more deadly than the flu. this is why we are socially distancing because this is growing exponentially.

secondly what's your point based on what you believe? fuck the elderly and the weak, lets continue business as usual and let ppl die?

the american media was downplaying it for months from january through early march until it suddenly hit and now it is a big deal obviously and justifiably it is getting 24/7 coverage. of course people are scared and it's not a shock people are, it's warranted. this is not drama, this is not unnecessary, this is not a drill, and this is not blown out of proportion. this will get a lot worse before it gets better.
