Some people's sarcasm detectors are broken while others truly believe this virus is made up or not a serious threat to public health. This kind of ignorance angers people because they or their loved ones could be put at risk as a result. It's like joking about drunk driving or something, come on man.

I'm lucky that my region has had ~40 confirmed cases and 1 death out of 125,000 or so people...can only imagine what it would be like living in a hot spot. We're doing fairly well at wearing masks, sanitizing, and social distancing though. Take no chances guys!
