re: Are many everyday Americans really freaking out?

A lot of the faux hysteria is just virtue signaling.

My parents are making money on it (not intentionally)... their cabins in pigeon forge and Michigan have seen an increase in bookings 4-6 months out as people look for a *single family* lodging location for a vacay rather than stay at a hotel...I'm taking the wife (no pics) and daughter (she's 2 and a half) on a trip at the end of April and we're going back to the Philippines in October... 0 concern. And I dont think the economy is going to get hit very hard... we're still cranked up full speed at the plant I work at, no sign of slowing.

Not for me or my kids -- unless this mutates into something that affects a different age group -- but more currently worried for my parents who are 75 and 71 and have heart issues.

Not me. Personally, I believe all this fear is an orchestrated crisis designed for one purpose......turn public opinion against Donald Trump. They (Deep State) couldn't do with the Russia collusion hoax, the Ukranian Quid Pro Quo hoax, and the Climate Change - Global Warming hoax. Did I miss one?
So now push the narrative that Donald Trump is to blame for this virus.

I flew thru Seattle this weekend. Only a few couples were wearing a mask throughout the whole airport that I saw. All of them Asians. It had me wondering if they were foreigners or if Asian-Americans are just more paranoid.

1 factory I deal with in Central China is back to 95% capacity from a worker standpoint. I have it on good authority that the employees were not forced to go back to work.

It's a joke, there is no doubt about that

This was me freaking out over the weekend:

The “close schools and ban public gatherings” crowd seems to be centered in deep blue states.
This is about advancing globalism. They can’t survive another Trump term.
By any means necessary.

I think this thing’s gonna fade into the sunset pretty quickly with warm weather coming down the pike

When I hear people talking about or when I read about it on Facebook it’s not that they are freaking out or nervous about getting Coronavirus. They are worried about a shortage of groceries and other necessities.
A friend of my wife’s sent a selfie from Target where the Toilet paper aisle was empty. Thousands of rolls of all different brands empty.

I'm very concerned, but we are in Silicon Valley and we are trying to sell our house.
First, I have workers coming into my house to fix it up. I'm worried more chances for them to bring in the virus.
I'm wondering about how all of the market jiteriness will impact selling our home. Will prices drop?
I'm worried about our area going on stricter quarantined in a month and impacting selling.
I'm worried about one of us being exposed and quarantined.
I'm worried about us catching it. We are almost 60 and have pre-existing conditions.
I'm also pretty sure my 89 year old mom
in Dallas willl get it and die, and I won't be able to see her beforehand.
I can't believe this hits just as we are about to move. I seriously have the worst luck. Always have.

Not really. It's a fun icebreaker.
I've been hiring some new employees, and we all still shake hands, etc when meeting.

Can you please explain this to me in the context of a global marketplace?

Freak out? Not really. Over react? Absolutely
Posted on 3/9/20 at 11:11 am to MeatCleaverWeaver
Only worried about my parents in their early 70s. Dad had pneumonia as a kid and has had bronchitis so I would worry if he would get it. Just told them try and stay away from people as much as possible. Myself and my wife both in our 30s and healthy. Not worried about getting it at all. If I did would just avoid my parents till I was over it.
