To those who say the Coronavirus is a scam/hoax
WASHINGTON — Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams warned Monday that the coronavirus outbreak will worsen this week and said that people across the country are not taking the threat seriously enough.
“I want America to understand this week, it's going to get bad,” Adams said in an interview on the “TODAY” show.
The disease is spreading, he said, because many people — especially young people — are not abiding by guidance to stay at home and practice social distancing.
“Right now, there are not enough people out there who are taking this seriously,” he said.

Adams said that young people are flocking to the beaches in California and people are still heading to the National Mall in Washington to view the cherry blossom trees that bloom each year. He warned that young people need to understand that they can contract COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, and they can be hospitalized and potentially die from it.
“Everyone needs to act as if they have the virus right now. So, test or no test, we need you to understand you could be spreading it to someone else. Or you could be getting it from someone else. Stay at home,” he said.
Asked about growing pressure for President Donald Trump to use the Defense Production Act to force companies to mass produce critical supplies, Adams suggested that it’s not necessary at this point.

“Here's the thing that people don't understand. You don't need to compel someone to do something they are already doing,” he said, adding that they’re already working with companies like Honeywell and Hanes that are already producing large quantities of the items needed.
“The other important point is that we're not going to ventilator our way out of this problem. We're not going to treat our way out of this problem,” he said. “The way you stop the spread of an infectious disease like this is with mitigation measures and preventing people from getting it in the first place.”

The china flu is being over-hyped by the fake news press. It exists but it's not a big thing. It's microscopic compared to the swine flu epidemic of 2009 when The Illiterate Kenyan was prez.

Yet these same leftist hacks downplayed a more devastating epidemic during Obamunism:

Why the hype? What is it about this flu that sets it apart from other flu's?

The worldwide death toll from this particular strain wasn't even enough to rate a percentage point as to how many people DIE annually in the USA from flu viruses that have been with us ever since I can remember.
Interesting that time tested cures and remedies have to wait YEARS before the FDA decides that they can market with declarations of they cure.....while suddenly VACCINES are being rushed through for the N1H1....a flu viruse that compared to others is NOT even exceptionally lethal.
As the old saying goes, follow the money!

Biden the child molester tried to start a panic in 2009, but the Obobo Administration shut him up quickly and the lie-beral media didn't hype his hysteria like they're doing now.

Then we get idiots like Truth Detector who want's to make this all about the media attacking Trump instead of focusing on the real problem.
