We are probably at 100,000 to 500,000.

They idea that when we had confirmed 200 cases that some just happened to be famous people, is well, unlikely as F.

I woke up today, depressed.

But then I thought, "At least I woke up." I can work on that depression thing.

Have prayed each night thank God for waking me up each day. I know this virus is serious and bad, but I blame some of this nightmare on both sides of the media. Everything is fear, fear, fear. Not sure they want America to come out of this and get back to normal.

I think everyone wants to get back to normal, never leaving the house isn’t fun for anyone really

You’d be endangering more people than the ones you directly interact with, so no. If you infect someone it’s going to affect more than just that one person, it’s a virus

The only people subject to infection would be the ones willing to risk it. How can you not understand this?

No, if people live together, that’s just not true, unless you’re saying they’re “willing to risk it” by letting their roommate/partner leave the house.

I'll bet you it's even more than that.

Here's an anecdote:

My eldest daughter has been ill with all the symptoms. She called in asking about testing. She was told "that testing would make no difference. Stay home, self quarantine, don't go to the hospital/Dr. unless you have high fever or other severe symptoms." Makes sense but it begs the question, what are the "real" numbers, when that is the approach that is being taken?

She's starting to feel better after a week of not so good.

Correct, people are currently doing just that. It should have been our approach from the beginning.

Glad she is getting better.

I am reviewing conversations in my head now. I had 2 different business contacts in early January, both in FL, that went AWOL in January. They wouldnt answer my calls, emails, etc. When they both finally reached back out, both had similar stories of just being sick as can be. Starting to make sense now.

I was wondering about this guy. How is it possible no new cases have come from this?

It’s possible there have been and they haven’t been tested or haven’t started showing symptoms. He’s still inside the 2 week window.

They’re having to really ration tests right now.

Look at Italy, Spain, China.

Those of you blaming the media for telling people what this could do need here if we don't take harsh and extreme measures need to get a grip.

Don't let the refusal of others to acknowledge reality keep your head in the clouds, too.
