Natural instincts say not to freak out and not to be terrified by some tweet/quote by “an American in Wuhan”, but I’m also not dumb enough to act like this is nothing on social media like GPC and Clay Travis. Weird middle ground I’m living right now.

You guys all went from mocking conspiracy theorists to believing everything you read on Twitter. Grow up, guys!

There’s a difference between flat earth and tin foil hat conspiracies and science based facts. If you don’t know about the past it’s doomed to repeat itself. Not acknowledging this is a big deal is kind of ridiculous.

Wacks my wife is an ICU nurse and is confirmed to work every day for the next two weeks. They're setting up an entirely new unit just for Covid. There's not enough ICU beds or ventilators in the US to handle what's coming.

In all seriousness unless there are DRASTIC changes Grandpa with dementia is going to show up at the hospital for Covid and get sent home to die because they don't meet the criteria to get on a ventilator.

I believe that and that totally sucks. I just think social media is a waste land right now for certain people with agendas. I’m waiting to hear from ppl I trust before forming an opinion on this stuff. I’m all for The measures we’ve taken so far. I just can’t believe the Costco parking lot looked like a Chiefs game day today.

The panic buying stuff is rough ridin' stupid. There are a lot of people that can’t afford to buy en mass and may only go to the store once a week. The elderly can’t just buy 6 packages of TP. The unintended consequences of it go way beyond just getting sick.

I went to that new grocery store at 87th and 435 over lunch, fully stocked of everything that hyvee was ravaged from last night. Except tp of course.

Does the coronavirus cause diarrhea or something? I don’t understand the run on TP.

You're pretty much right but I think the sickness is gonna be way worse than a toilet paper shortage

the virus goes in and out of people's faces. it hangs in the air for a little bit, but not for long and it doesn't go very far, so it mostly lands on things and then is on those things. you touch things with your hands and get virus on them and then touch your hands to your face and the virus goes into your face and now you're a virus factory and you pump virus out of your face and it lands on everything around you including your hands and you touch things with your hands including other people's hands or things that other people touch with their hands and then they touch their hands to their faces and then they're virus factories, etc.

Yeah I’m getting a little cheesed off at folks saying stuff like “stop freaking out everyone.” Although the run on TP and ground beef still does seem a little crazy.

the more people freak out, the fewer people die. freaking out is highly encouraged.

What sys is saying is don't be a dumbass and just wash your hands whenever you can

I think the main issue here is, ppl who freak out over every trump tweet/chum/tbt/etc update. doomsday update on this board, Twitter, etc. are reporting these things over and over and we’re like... “cool!”. Fake news and noise to us. Boy who cried wolf by now.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #849 on:** March 13, 2020, 10:26:14 PM »

Chum and TBT are more harmful to normal peeps hanging out, crossing this board on the rando. They have legit tried to create chaos for the last 4 years until potential chaos presents ourselves and we’re supposed to take their word. No thanks!
