And to think Italy has free health care... Wonder what all they get with that?

Italy’s “patient one” is a 38-year-old marathoner who has been in the ICU for a month with respiratory failure. This virus is not something to be dismissed, regardless of your age or health status. Please take precautions.

Normal coronavirus is like a typical cold and diagnosed as such in most cases. I realize that all the hubbub going on is trying to save the bankers stock market and all but they are not helping at all. Looking at all the BS comparing it to the typical flu almost makes me wonder if they perhaps want to see a bunch of old people contract it to avoid the retirement payouts. The states have also had a deadly flu year because of the types of flu going around and there is no reason for that either other than big pharma pushing flu shots. Licorice root kills most all influenza.
