    Both can be right. Drew is right about the media being ignorant (often intentionally so) and not particularly helpful. The media does not exist to educate, they exist to make money and get people to watch commercials.

      This is absolutely true. We are customers to the media. It's just that it's irresponsible and irrational to contradict what non-ignorant health officials are saying, even if the media is focusing on the aspects that are most sensationalized in order to draw viewers.

        I’m all for ripping the media, but the media isn’t telling people to go buy a years supply of toilet paper from what I’ve seen. If people go out and do that that’s on them

          Just put him on ignore.

          He's constantly doing this in other threads where he makes comments to get a reaction/rise out of people.

            That link is the same crap that is thrown around on FB timelines. No one is stressing here, it's rules and regulations that are being implemented from states and the federal government.

            It's just the flu, right?
            I don't do FB but I'm glad accurate news is somewhat getting reported.

                Couple of interesting things from the WH press briefing today.

                Recommending no public gatherings of more than 10 people, for 15 days.
                Urging people to stay home and avoid discretionary travel.
                This current outbreak could last until July/August (highly paraphrased).

                      The social distancing stuff is actually meant to flatten the spread out longer, so having it extend into summer is not automatically a horrible thing. The alternative is more people get it quckly and health services can't keep up, but the outbreak comes and goes quicker.

                          Well, I guess a lot of people will only take it seriously once people start dying in mass.

                              Am I the only one who sees the irony in these health experts, politicians and other people all coming up to the podium, surrounded by their peers, speaking infront of the media, and talking about "social distancing", aka keeping 2 meters of space between you and someone else.

                                Quit overreacting, I type, as I link to a video of a celebrity TV host with no expertise in public health or epidemiology telling us this is overblown.
                                I write things on the Internet.
