    This is insane. We have no clue about this bug. Yet, we prance around as we do. They even called it "Novel" in the beginning only to dismiss as a more common flu. 40+ now getting hammered. Stays alive in the air, lives up to 15 hours (we were told an hour), leaves tunnels in people's lungs, incubation time changes every day, 4 days, 15, days, 4+15 days, ...

    No wonder there is panic, we don't know shit.

    • yes this is serious and it seems it may push us all in a recession too ... all this because someone ate a bat in China. Its crazy.Bennn
    • It’s actually very well known as coronaviruses are not new and have been studied for several decades. Stay home, rest, fluids and reduce contact. Simple.monospaced
    • Panic is all because of people like Bennn who feel the need to share all the paranoia constantly. It doesn’t help.monospaced
    • People don’t know shit because of the gross misinformation.monospaced
    • Italy ... Bro ... they are deciding who lives and dies. Their health system is crippled. If prepared, most people would not die.dibec

    • "novel" here just means "new" - not trivial. It's a new strain of a common virus. ffs.ben_
    • Its transmissible by air... hand washing is v important, but you can catch it just by breathing... watch that Rogan's podcast with that expert.Bennn
    • The best way to stop the virus is for people to stop catching the virus.deadsperm
    • Bennn. Same for the flu! Joe Rohan is a comedian and actor ffs.monospaced
    • monospaced, it seems like you are getting completely different version of the news than the rest of us :)yuekit
    • Yeah Bennn please do our species a favour and calm down a bit, stop listening to JR, check cdc announcements, be diligent but be rational.ben_
    • If it is not serious, why did China and Italy quarantine millions of people and basically shut down their entire economies?yuekit
    • I don't think anyone sane is saying it's not serious, but being hysterical about it isn't helping either.ben_
    • I didn’t say it’s not serious. My information isn’t bad it’s just not tainted by sensationalist media. Mine is 100% from front line doctors.monospaced
    • I’m self quarantined. I’m not out licking walls and kissing strangers. I’m taking it very seriously. But acting like a global killer is here is moronic.monospaced
    • Smoke em if you got emdibec
    • Italy and China shut down because they are trying to stop the spread.monospaced
    • Italy and China saw what was happening and took very drastic action, basically crippling their own economies to stop it.yuekit
    • hey don't downvote my feelings and thoughts bullies.dibec
    • Is the USA prepared to do the same? Doesn't seem like it.yuekit
    • I hope I'm wrong, but it seems very possible that in a week or two the US will have tens of thousands of cases. And then the shit will really hit the fan.yuekit
    • lol when i said check that Rogan's podcast, i didnt say listen to Rogan but listen the expert who talked to Rogan... oh you guysBennn
    • yeah and that one expert sends you into a tailspin. pull up on the stick bud!ben_
    • @Bennn, I listen to many more experts than some dude on a comedian's talk show. You should do the same.monospaced
    • geez man, your experts are better than my experts, is it what you're telling me right now? How old are you?Bennn
    • have you actually listened it? Do you who he is and what he do and have done?Bennn
