I thought there were way more than that today.

People are right to be concerned. Being whipped into obsessional panic isn’t a good thing.

exactly.

People should be concerned enough to *actually* do the stuff recommended for the flu. That includes getting the flu shot, so you’re less likely to end up in the hospital, and if you do you’ve already started the process of distinguishing between causes.

Finally I get to ask. How do you define "Panic?"

I see preparation and concern, but somehow people keep screaming panic who dislike the nCOVID-19 threads. I added the "n" because WHO failed to identify novel.

What exactly to you mean by panic?
