Lmao what’s the alternative? You going to a 20,000-person concert this evening? Didn’t think so

I've changed none of my plans and wouldn't.

BS.

Outside and doing stuff that needs to be done/want to do, wash your hands, cover your mouth when you cough and sneeze, eat right, exercise, get enough sleep.

You know all those things your Mom told you to do when you were a kid?

I refuse to live my life in fear.

I'll die first.

I think everyone is washing their hands and doing things that need to be done. If you’re outside frolicking in the park with 1000 of your closest friends because you want to, you can give all the rah rah motivational speeches you want, but that’s not reasonable nor bravery.

Like I said, “living in fear” vs “reasonable caution” seems like virtually the same actions, just with a few aggressive “I’m Not Afraid, I’m American” corny motivational speeches thrown in

We’ve generally been a week or two behind Italy, so that isn’t particularly comforting

That’s not what he said. He said there are as many infection here in the US that there are in Europe which is not even remotely true. And they were late to impose travel bans. That will undoubtedly help.

I’m assuming you’re posting from your fancy Roman hotel that you booked at a 95% markdown. More power to you for taking advantage

I don't know, I guess we can use my wife as an example. Early 50s, never smoked, doesn't drink heavily, no drugs, eats well, and has asthma; probably from a childhood of growing up in a house with 2 smokers.
I guess she could have run away when she was 4.
For those of you more concerned over a brief economic downturn than the lives of others, buy some priorities with that disposable income you so value.

You know, there's a middle ground. If ya'll are concerned for her life, ya'll could all self-quarantine and not ask the nation to bring the economy to a screeching halt. You could get some priorities, you know.

The only intriguing part of this comparison is the prospect of war against China

The ones over 80 don't have much longer to live anyway.

Can you (Soylent) still eat the meat if they (Green) die of corona?

Back in the 40's propylene glycol was pumped into the ventilation of hospitals to serve as a disinfectant. Propylene glycol is the "fog juice" used in widely available consumer fog machines. Also used in vape juice.

I haven't seen any data for it's disinfecting effects of COVID-19, but I figure if anyone was considering taking up vaping, this could be the time to do it.

Also, retailers could use the fog machines to encourage shoppers.

Trump pushes old coronavirus poll as Americans urged to listen to scientists not politicians

This will def get worse before it gets better. It’s always darkest before the dawn

If barry were still President or god forbid hillary had won or if Biden wins and this happened during his term, the libs here who are so scared and fear mongering would be down playing this bigly, as would the media.

Nope. Just going about life as usual. No old plans cancelled or new ones made.

My statement remains, you all would be here down playing this big time and so would your media

We are not like you, obviously. Projecting your shortcoming on anyone but yourself is so self serving.

So, do you think Hill or Barry would have also fired the U.S. Pandemic Response Team, as Trump did? Or am I getting to political, here?

They had a habit of telling teams to stand down during times of extreme crisis. So... Who knows?

You libs know deep down this is not worth the panic some are causing but you all are good with it because it could cause a recession and it gives you all another chance to bash everything the President does.

Yea, it is authoritarian leadership. And worse, leadership of a coward.

Never let a crisis go to waste.

You are a idiot.

An.

And you are a sheep.

“Liberal panic” isn’t enough to trigger an economic recession, which should already have occurred to you
