StevenNL2000 Thank you for cleaning up this thread. Bearing in mind that this thread is now cleaned, please try to keep it strictly about the coronavirus epidemic. There are now 8 confirmed cases in the US. Up from 5.

If you believe it is necessary, you can create a forum sanction request or an admin abuse report. Except my posts were merely pointing out that people advancing the narrative that Corona is some-how equal to the severity of say The Black Death. This equivocal language only adds to the hysteria, which is why I was pointing it out in my posts which have now been removed. It's not my fault that the other party can't help but resort to threats. Misinformation spread primarily online about the coronavirus has led the WHO to declare an "infodemic" on 2 February. (https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/coronaviruse/situation-reports/20200202-sitrep-13-ncov-v3.pdf?sfvrsn=195f4010_2) This is in deep discussion i.e. I should be able to offer an opposing viewpoint, even if it makes the other party feel uncomfortable because of of said opinion.

seeing all the new data compared to the original post's data back in Jan., is absolutely extraordinary.
China alone, for example: Current # Infected: 80,793 Deaths: 3,169 Upon the writing of this thread, there were only 2100 cases globally.

And now it's a global pandemic that my friends and family are treating as a fucking joke. "le just the flu bro xD"

My uni's being a hard-ass and not shutting down. We've now had several cases in our communities with lecturers and students going into self-isolation after testing positive and the uni is still like wE hAvE thIs haNDleD. It's actually pissing a lot of the students off - of course, we don't have to come in for most of the stuff, however, some pracs and labs are still compulsory - and hearing news around the uni it seems that due to the universities inaction on the issue, a whole cohort of psychology students have now been exposed and have to go into self-isolation for 2 weeks (*300 students).
Just a small little fucking rant because my uni is great, but the fucking leadership have their balls up their ass right now. Cheers.

The coronavirus has just officially affected me as of yesterday, thanks to coronavirus I have an extra week of spring break. Someone in our area recently became infected with it and an email was sent out listing the following districts whose schools would have to resume on the 23rd.

Someone in our area recently became infected with it and an email was sent out listing the following districts whose schools would have to resume on the 23rd. It’s been affecting everyone for a while now. The strain on our community services and economy (i.e overwhelmed hospitals) worries me more than the virus itself. Not to downplay the virus, it’s still a big problem.

I drove to Sams Club to pick up some groceries and it looked like a ghost town. I went into Kroger as well as Aldi and they all look the same as Sams Club did. My governor has ordered all K-12 schools are cancelled for 3 weeks, starting Monday and ending April 6th (which could extend even more if this virus gets worse). This is hard especially since it is taking quizzes and tests away which is a huge opportunity to boost my grades in school.
Stocks are plummeting, soon it will be hard to grab food, drinks, and so much more as if it wasn’t already. Schools are being cancelled, sports and other activities are being cancelled. I was supposed to go out with a friend yesterday and their parents as well as mine were paranoid about this virus. People are being forced to work at home, and if they were even around someone exposed to the virus and work at an office or somewhere else besides home, well they are forced to go home.
