If you'd like to offer a reasoned response to what is said, then do it. Your medical credentials certainly give you gravitas, but to denigrate others is simply mean IMHO.

Dr. Fauci (who I personally trust in this) said today that he's glad at what people are calling over reaction because that is what is needed to slow the spread.

Fauci uses a metaphor from one of the fastest-moving sports to describe his strategy on the outbreak. “You skate not to where the puck is, but to where the puck is going to be,” he told a House committee.
Sorry if I offended anyone, but the reality is that we do not need more panic and more posts that promote panic, especially when they are wild conjecture and not based on known facts. If I've gone overboard in attempting to provide a reasonable balance, I apologize
