There is nothing overblown with the virus, only the more sensational ways of reporting it in some of the media.
That is the weakest possible response. 650,000 people in the US die from heart disease every year. Is that on the news 24/7? Where is the outrage? There has been no appreciable increase in deaths in the US during this pandemic. So yes, it is overblown. It has received a disproportionate amount of media coverage and fear mongering.
