the us has great health care you should only worry if you are immunocompromised Or if he isn't rich, but realistically he shouldn't worry at all about this in particular because a confirmed case doesn't just sashay over a couple states and start infecting people. im not talking our system of care

Still like the safest period of time to live in since like the cold war For white gamers living in the mainland United States, sure. What about people living in northern Alaska with their very livelihoods quite literally “melting away”. Or the school shooting that happens every so often, killing and/or injuring massive amounts of students. Safety’s all relative. i guess the white gamers in the uk are endangered ? why gamers

This is literally one of the dumbest takes I have ever seen on these forums. Nowadays is indisputably the safest period of time to live. A kid living in rural Idlib has it better off today than the average kid on this planet a hundred years ago. Honestly so dumb, 2/3 of kids used to die before the age of 7, and the mortality rate of mothers was ridiculous. The fact you emphasize for "white" people as well is even more hilarious, the greatest gains in safety across the globe haven't been in majority white countries, and even somewhere like the state's it's a lot safer to be black nowadays than it was 50 years ago. Actually hilarious. Also, people in Alaska will benefit massively from global warming with greater access to mineral & fossil fuels, along with the northern passage being accessible due to melting ice. School shootings have happened for the past hundred years, mass shootings have happened for the past hundred years. The worst shooting in the US for 50+ years was a school shooting in the 30's. Please read some books.

These fuckers are hiding the true statistics! https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/etbwl6/chinas_coronavirus_count_artificially_made_low_by/ This has been thrown around for close to a month now, the biggest thing with identifying it right now is the lack of test kits as the supply ran out extremely quickly. China is taking this extremely seriously, they have close to 24 million people under quarantine, they've closed every single movie theater in the country, they closed the forbidden city & the Beijing zoo. Nothing hints at China deliberately underreporting this, it being misidentified, or tests not being able to be done at the ground level due to lack of kits and hospitals being overrun with patients is a separate issue.

Please read some books. You were quite quick to call me out. My argument was plain and simply, "safety is relative". Clearly went over your head. Nonetheless, I appreciate your opinion.

How did it go over his head? He point-by-point addressed what you said and proved it to be wrong... and everything is not an opinion, you were being objectively & factually wrong.

Sorry to butt in again, but I'm pretty damn sure if a medical scientist from Harvard says this is bad, shit is REALLY gonna go down.

Any virus whether it's the common cold or ebola is "bad". The point is that this equally as scary as ebola in that it will not affect 99.99999% of people in western nations including America, but will require effort in the countries that are affected (in this case, China) to root out, which is happening.
