There are less than 300 cases in the US that has a population of 331 million. China did a piss poor job of diagnosing and containing it since their first cases infected 115 countries but within 2 or 3 peaks I feel it will have peaked in the US. Yes we are behind in testing people but my gut says its nowhere near as big as social media makes it. Social media is causing a mass panic. In 2014 Ebola was the big thing. Only 4 people got it.

There are over 3000 cases in the US (I think you meant to say that right? lol) - the numbers will continue to grow as people are tested....

Ive never seen anything like this where everything is shut down...its not Social Media hype - its real life way to stop spreading the virus...social distancing is the way to do it. ...therefore buying food and everything makes sense....

The r-naught for this virus is like an R 4-6 vs R-1 with the flu, which means you can infect 4-6 people with one person - its stays in the air and surfaces longer than the flu...even though it feels like panic...I think this an appropriate response to get rid of it quickly.

Those who have it stay home so their bodies can fight it off, those who dont have it stay at home and dont catch it

This will stop it and it will dissapear...

there is a whole thread on this here

Someone mentioned to me that because some places in New York have a curfew, it's generally the first step towards enacting Martial Law. Things will become even more chaotic if this happens.

True - we are on quarantine where I live and I already feel like going nuts at home

Well personally I don’t feel threat.
The Swine flu in 2008-2009 killed 2,00,000 ppl in the world.

And I don’t think China did a poor job since the locked down the city which has 100,00,000 population.
WHO announced pandemic that time ‘too.

So other cities has very few ppl are infected.
Italy was the first group of country banned flight from China the what’s happening now?

Anyway I think just wash hands stay home then the issue will disappear to nowhere.

HornetKick:
Oh another thing, someone mentioned that you should drink lots of water. If you have it unknowingly or in the beginning stages and swallow the virus, it can't live on the acids in our stomachs. So drink, drink, drink to flush it out.

I disagree, China did a lot of lying before the rest of the world started calling their bluff. China's sanitation programs are almost nil and to have wet markets, sounds sickening in itself. I believe they have started to ban these. They had no laws or provisions like the U.S. has such as the FDA to police and protect the general population. I was also told that 1/3 of China, particularly Wuhan province still exists like a third world country. Really??
