Difference is the standard flu gets a new vaccine every year so all of your numbers could essentially go to zero if everybody was vaccinated. There is nothing for this corona thing, yet. 1 in 50 chance you die, slightly worse than rolling snake eyes.

I like to trivialize a new virus for which we have no known treatment or vaccine, unlike the flu, and which is both more contagious and many orders of magnitude more deadly than the flu, because we still see the flu every year. That’s what I like to do.

7 cases in California and three recovered.

There's been more deaths due to typhus (RIP, CD) than the corona virus in the US.
AAAARRGH MEAN ORANGE MAN!!!!!!

The fact that opinions over a public health issue are breaking down on political lines is fucking retarded.

Naaaaah, who are you kidding? You like to lie your ass off and claim Trump offered Assange a pardon and then you like to run and hide like a Kunt after you get exposed for the lying coward you are. That’s what you like to do.HHusky said:I like to trivialize a new virus for which we have no known treatment or vaccine, unlike the flu, and which is both more contagious and many orders of magnitude more deadly than the flu, because we still see the flu every year.

Agreed but that tends to happen when you have asshats blaming Trump for a virus that came out of China.GreenRiverGatorz said:The fact that opinions over a public health issue are breaking down on political lines is fucking retarded.

How bad would it have to get before you’d say let’s not let it get worse? Public officials who didn’t want people to “freak out” about the Spanish flu caused a lot more harm than doctors who wanted it taken seriously.PurpleThrobber said:

I like to freak out over something that the odds of killing me are magnitudes less than what threatens to kill me daily. That's what I like to do.HHusky said:I like to trivialize a new virus for which we have no known treatment or vaccine, unlike the flu, and which is both more contagious and many orders of magnitude more deadly than the flu, because we still see the flu every year.

Also, many years the flu vaccine is way off the mark and ineffective. Millions get sick. Thousands die. But THIS is different!
But since you're a leftist, we come to expect emotional fear based arguments and hand wringing. Had Trump finished rounding up the gays yet? Did we win WWIII yet? Because I heard it started when Iran launches rockets after a terrorist was killed.
Fuck off -

If China goes full blown it'll cause huge problems here.
They make way to much of our stuff. Especially prescription drugs and binders etc to manufacture them. Combined with lean inventory and just in time supply practices it might be ugly.
Economy will take a hit.
Hope it's not too bad.

Border protection? Knowing who is coming here from where? Quarantine?
Muslim errr coronavirus travel ban?
These are federal responsibilities that the left would freak out about

This will end up as a big zero. Like all the other shit we were lied to about and told to panic.
Only 20 million cases and 10,000 deaths to go before this surpasses a virus that's already here that no one gives a shit about. -
Maybe you should check the cdc.gov website. There’s a wealth of info at your fingertips. And all of the things you are clamoring for have been addressed except closing schools, businesses.HHusky said:

We have about 60 cases in our country now. As much as you are rooting for this disease be an epidemic here, It’s not anywhere close to that yet.
But keep praying for the worst. -
