Im shocked at TV...at our age we have gone thru worse. So many veterans here that went thru worse.
We have no kids here to protect and feed. But the entitled worry warts have cleaned out the stores.
Wait for two years and the news will have articles on the Year the World Went Nuts
Sorry...not buying it...scientists and politicians just love to control.

No, you are not the only one, I couldn't agree with you more. This is all hyped up by the news media. In the flu season of 2017-2018, 80,000 people in the US died from the flu. I didn't see any businesses closing, no social distancing, etc. Most people who have contracted the covid 19 virus recover from it, something like 80% recovery rate. Most folks that do not recover are, yes, elderly, BUT, they already have underlying health conditions. Seniors that are healthy are not at anymore of a risk than anyone else. The news media will not tell the true facts, they only expand on how dangerous this is, causing panic and hysteria. Anyone who is living in fear of the virus puts themselves at a greater risk, as fear and the accompanying stress weakens the immune system. My sources are from the NYT and Market Watch.
