The people who say this have no concept of exponential growth and what is actually happening. The virus has been spreading for only 2 months. A fair comparison would be to look at the death rate per hundred thousand infected. Thus far the coronavirus is literally almost 40 times more deadly than the flu. We are in the very infancy of this situation. These comparisons to the flu are so retarded

Even though this does seek like more of the same make believe fearmongering as avian flu, and swine flu, let's not credit "Dr" Drew with being any bette than Orel/Richard Roberts, or maybe jerry Springer. This is the same Dr drew Pinsnky that hosts claptrap like celebrity rehab, and claims to be an addiction expert(SPOLIER ALERT: the cure is GOD and the success rate is exactly as low as you expect when a doctor tells you that God is the only solution.)

I'm definitely NOT a friend of the media, but in a situation like this what choice do they have? People will criticize them whether they report too much or whether they report too little, it's the same as with the government's response, there's no winning in a situation like this. Unless you're an F list celebrity like this faggot and you see your opportunity to do the criticizing, play that levelheaded smertfag character you play, and let your PR people get your stale name back into a headline for no real reason.

All just-a-flu-bros please just go contract it already and shut the fuck up. Everyone has already heard "just a flu" for 2.5 months as it's continued to grow exponentially, completely uncontainable despite historically unprecedented containment measures. Did everyone forget it's a fucking BIO WEAPON?
