This is dumb. Whether or not it’s a hoax, the panic from the general public is fricking real. Panic leads to chaos. Today there is a shite paper shortage, but what happens when people turn their panic towards the gas pumps or banks? What do you think happens when millions of people start pulling their cash out of banks? They aren’t just focused on fighting the spread of the virus hence the state of emergency

Not just that. The assertion by many here is that the Dems are loving the catastrophe and want more death.
I've recently been reading about Marxist writers in the US and Europe in the late 19th century. They wanted Utopia through an all powerful centralized federal govt. But they didn't think the US would ever go for a revolution with massive death.
The writers were convinced that it would require a disaster and then people would willingly give up that old fashioned Constitution and let the govt assume dictatorial power.
FDR was a fan of these books and appointed advisors of like mind. When the Great Depression hit, he seized the opportunity. The New Deal was a huge power grab by central planners.
It's happening now with the Dems. Imagine what laws they would be passing right now (to save the nation) if Hillary had won in 2016.

So he could ban those dirty euros and get the re-education camps set up under the guise of CV quarantine locations.

why didnt we slip into this hysteria for swine flu? ebola? h1n1? zika?
Almost every single major news organization has drafted at least one article on “how to build your own bug out bag” or “how to become a doomsday prepper”.
This is an unprecedented response by an entire industry to scare the living shite out of people for views and clicks and political points.

It's not a hoax. It is the biggest virtue signal of all time.

Did anybody say the virus doesn't exist, hence a hoax, or, that the overblown hype is the hoax?

It's not a hoax. Ask Seattle.
Anyway. Two main things could happen.
when will the liberals and fake news mandate that Trump shut it down for the good of the people?

The words "national emergency" are required by law in order for him to do an end around Congress.

The virus is serious, just like Swine.
The hoax is the msm/political leaders creating this hysteria and the reaction of the masses.
Trump is damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t.
He shut down travel to China...racist
Said it started in China....racist
Issues more travel bans...racist xenophobe
It’s so serious, pelosi had to tack on billions for christrnas trees in the aid bill, but she will never have to answer for it.

The hoax is having an incompetent reality tv show clown in the White House.

Because the son of a foreign Muslim, raised outside the US, and never held a job before becoming president, wasnt a joke, right?

which created hysteria
which also spread the disease
which meant Trump (and state governors of both sides) had to declare an emergency to try to handle things
The OP isn’t smart enough to put that together.

The panic is a media-created hoax. The emergency declaration is largely driven because of the effects of the panic.
If you can't make that connection (which is what Trump said at the beginning when he banned travel from China), then I don't think you can be reasoned with.
