CDC immunization chief, Nancy Messonier warns "disruption to everyday life may be severe" from coronavirus in the US. She told her children over breakfast: "Right now, we as a family need to be preparing for significant disruption of our lives."



People on both sides are slamming this panic-stoking statement by this woman

What the frick is she thinking?

There is a huge gap between saying all is well/no problem and “run for your liiivvvvvess!!”

Either she knows something really bad that we don't, or this is the most dangerous statement made by a CDC official to date.

With a 2% death rate this virus is not as deadly as the regular flu. I don't understand the panic. Also this is the 19th edition of this virus. What am I missing?

China can't wipe their behinds. We now know how to beat China in a war. Drop the flu on them.

Trump is trying to cut CDC funding.

She is trying to get some of that back. Nothing more.

The question is do you really believe the 2% death rate or not

The first thing you are missing is factual information.

The regular flu kills 1/1000 in its deadliest years.

This thing, at 2% is 20-times as deadly as regular flu.

I know math is hard....but damn.

Factories in the Wuhan district are reopening. Coronavirus is less lethal than the Flu. This is not a pandemic. This is a media created panic.
