    An aside, was at Costco today, no TP, paper towels or disinfecting wipes to be seen.  There was enough bottled water to fill a Olympic Pool.  Not sure what that portends, they did have the items I was after.

    Under these circumstances, fear, for lack of a better word, is good. 

    I can think of a lot of words that are better.

    Not trying to lessen the concern here as the virus is moving extremely quickly and will continue for a while.  But to what extent is the population hype fueled by the media hype??  I don't know the right balance but I am confident that the constant exposure to the media hype is only compounding the populace and its fear.  

    Its the flu. 58,000 people die of the flu and pneumonia each year in the US. This is being hyped by the dems to make Trump look bad before the election. If Biden or Bernnie get in how fast will all this go away?

    There I said it. Flame on! 
    Prolly should not be looking at this from a political standpoint.  Most would agree we have good numbers on well worn illnesses and resultant mortality rates.  Not so much on this new virus.  Again, caution should prevail until facts are learned.

    Rollout of testing in US has been very slow compared to many countries.  You can’t count what you can’t test and confirm.  I don’t think we have any real idea of what the number of cases in US is at this point.  Country to country comparisons don’t really matter.
    THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

    With exponential growth the number of actual cases doesn’t matter too much.  All it does is to shift the time.

    I work for local gubmint.  The brain trust is deciding how to keep essential services like the sheriff’s department running.  My department usually goes to work to estimate value of damaged property after a destructive widespread storm.  There’s no damage to estimate so we would probably be considered nonessential.
