In this case the virus is actually way more of a threat than the ‘common cold’ or even ‘the flu’.
There aren’t many cases here officially because the CDC isn’t actually testing anyone. 46 states STILL don’t have testing kits for this and we STILL aren’t testing anyone who isn’t a recent arrival from China.
In this case the choice isn’t A, virus meaningless CDC trying to get trump. The choice is B. virus is serious, CDC trying to get trump.

then where the hell are the numbers to back this BS? “Oh my, it’s way worse than you think” really??? Multiply what we know now by a 1000 fold and it’s still barely newsworthy other than the intrigue of it being a new strand.
I’m a small business owner in the service industry. Hype on something like this turns what was looking like an awesome year into a trainwreck. So yea, I’m a bit sensitive to the stupidity and overhype.
I guess if you work for some big company, or the govt, the hype is fun and exciting to watch and you probably will never feel the consequences of it.
Folks like us are on the frontlines taking the incoming of every overblown story and conspiracy theory. That CDC presser yesterday was unbelievably irresponsible. “Epect major disruptions in your daily routine”....unreal.
Hype hasn’t destroyed the supply chains from China.
China did that herself.
China quarantined hundreds of millions of people over this virus.
I can’t remember them doing that over ‘a cold’ or ‘the flu’.
They literally dug up the roads out of Wuhan.
Even if a single American never dies from this a recession is baked into the cake.
China is a single point of failure for every single developed nation’s economy.
This isn’t ‘democrat hype’, this is the fault of the free traitors sending all our manufacturing to China or making any manufacturing here dependent largely on Chinese parts.
Or Asian in general. South Korea is where China was a month ago.
