Is it just me or does it feel like all the panic is over?

Feels like life will return back to normal sooner rather than later.

We’re not out of the weeds yet. Check back in two-three weeks.

The panic is far from over. It's settling down a little, but far from over.

Go to your local grocery and you'll find the panic epicenter.

My state just closed all schools for a month. I would say the panic is just getting started.

MSM shot another dud. But they will ramp up again shortly.

I wish you were right.

Prepare for a weekend of fistfights, stabbings, and some guns pulled at grocery stores over the last can of Beefaroni.

If the numbers continue to rise at the pace they did in Italy, we've only just begun.

This, but we have some definition to the situation now.

Mass testing means there is light at the end of the tunnel.

We’ve basically enacted the “South Korea” plan. We will be able to find out who exactly has the virus which will allow us to turn the country back on sooner

The rise in the stock market and the knowledge that their 401Ks are not dead will calm the public more than anything.

This is not panic

This is called government workers that only put in 2/3 of a year in the first place wanting another month of paid vacations

Its time to cut pay by more than half

To me it feels like it's just getting started. I drove by three difference grocery stores on my way home and every single one of them was packed with people panic shopping.

I have a similar feeling. I think many have seen through the left wings attempt to overblow the situation for political purposes and with Trump's excellent news conference and response the panic is going to gradually diminish.

It's not over by any means but thanks to the competent leadership of our great president we are on the road to recovery.

But, I have all of this toilet paper and vienna sausages. As old as I am, I don't know if I can wipe my arse enough to use it all up before I die

It's just you. The media has two full days to create more panic.

FWIW, the number of deaths in the U.S. from CV-19 has been stuck at 41 since Wednesday afternoon even though the number of positive cases has increased by several hundred since then.

I'm no expert but that tells me this virus is not nearly as virulent as it has been portrayed to be.

I think we've turned the corner, but the average American doesn't know it yet. I was in Wal-mart 2 hours ago (I'm checking the stores for you guys) and I swear there was a slight sense of panic in that place. Some of the shelves were mostly empty, too (Not regular food items, though).

I actually went today, not because I’m scared of the virus but worried about those panicking. The store was 65% bare. I was pissed that I was even there but knew I better buy something because of all those panicking.
