I am still not seeing this pandemic everyone hypes up, I mean thousands die and millions affected by the common cold and flu in the USA alone every year. Two months and three hundred deaths (most probably with some sort of health problem) and ten thousand affected (most probably already recovered). I do not understand the hype here. IMO its being over-hyped. Nothing wrong with doing the basics, washing hands, maybe not travel to China at the moment, etc.
