Shows simple simulations and impacts of social distancing and self quarantining. And how this flattens the curve.

A bunch of people around here won’t listen to facts because they’re coming from the media who only wants to hurt Trump and install socialism.

What worries me is that people start dying because they aren’t getting food well before they get aids.

Would be a great idea if thousands of people didn’t flock to grocery stores to buy shite because they are afraid of being stuck inside for two weeks.

You either shut everything down at once or you just change where it’s transmitted.

I'd rather overwhelm the healthcare system now instead of having people get this all summer/fall and put football season in jeopardy.

literally speculation.

Wash your hands (like you should have learned as a child, avoid personal contact and wear disposable gloves before touching anything "public." You'll be fine.

So here’s the question, normally, between Jan-March there are many many different viruses, much like Coronavirus sweeping through our country. Do we shut everything down for 3-4 months every year when viruses are at their peak from now on?

What good will that do if you still touch your face?

I wouldn't touch fly face until a glove came off and I washed hands. Is this a trick question?

There are not viruses like this Coronavirus sweeping through our communities. It’s a novel virus. All these other viruses have been around meaning (1) our community has some level of acquired immunity, (2) we may establish some level of herd immunity through vaccines and (3) our medical system has established protocols on how to deal with them.

That’s the Natural Family Planning method of disease control. Great in theory, doesn’t work in practice.

Because they quit listening to anything after Trump called it a nothing burger the first time.

You people...no one quit listening and isnt concerned. A lot of people just think the fearmongers are doing more damage than the virus thus far. I'm in that group.

We don't trust the media because they've earned our distrust.

So, when something real comes along why should we trust them.

It's why the confusion exists right now.

I want to believe, but I am skeptical x 1000.
