My bet is still open. If more than 6 million people die in the US I will ban myself permanently, under 6 million you ban yourself permanently. Let’s give it a year? You ready to back up that hysteria?

I wish you would get it so that we wouldn’t have to hear from you for a while. 

Wow dude. It’s okay to get irritated and tell someone to +++++ off. But might want to check yourself when saying you want someone to get sick. Take a deep breath. Rub one out. Then tell @retrofade to go hump a sheep. But don’t wish him to get sick.

I had to turn it off. Couldn’t take anymore of the raw sewage that was coming out of that man’s mouth.

He can't hold rallies right now so all of a sudden he's having press conferences instead.

So, Romney, no symptoms but gets tested. Meanwhile my son had a fever, aches and chills for for 5 days, tested negative for flu and still can't get tested for corona. 

I'm not saying Romney shouldn't be tested, but apparently he's better than my kid and my family. F that all the way down.

I'm going to defend @bornontheblue , @Bob and others a tiny bit here.

Let's all acknowledge that some of the information and hype and news and reaction is in all likelihood, somewhat overboard. Let's face it, this is a massive worldwide story and there's money to be made in clicks and ads and all that.  A huge portion of the media is always sensational.

This situation is probably going to be like pretty much any other, where the truth is somewhere in the middle between the extremes.

Let’s bring this back to reality . The end of the world is not at hand. The overwhelming majority of people who get this recover. Hell, I wish I would get it soon just to get it over with since half  of us will eventually get it anyways. Everybody just needs to calm their tits! We are all going to be just fine! 

And if we all got it at once the hospital systems would be completely overwhelmed and a much higher percentage would die.  New York is already in trouble and canceling surgical residencies to pull people into the ED.   My daughter is a PT in Boston who expects to get redeployed to combat this stuff.  It’s hard hard to overstate how under prepared parts of this country is.

I apologize to all I offended , I went to far, and I’m sorry 😐 I definitely belong to the let cooler heads prevail crowd though. Most of us are going to get through this just fine, some of us will get sick, the overwhelming majority of us will recover and get on with life. Keep your social distance, wash your hands, call your mom, and stay the hell away from your grandma!

Yes there is no point panicking but keep in mind the percent that need hospitalization.  If that happens too fast we run out of ability to care and the death toll rises significantly.  We are working to build respirators but we could easily be overwhelmed.
