The economy is being harmed by the Coronavirus hysteria created by the mainstream media. The virus itself will not harm our economy that much as long as we don't over-react. Most of the damage being done by the Coronavirus is being done by people talking about it and over-reacting. Contrast this with how well the world handled the flu pandemic of 1918. The stock market in the USA actually only dropped about 5% that year.

To put things into perspective, the 1918 flu killed about 50,000,000 people out of 1.6 billion. Today, that would be proportional to a virus killing about 215 million people worldwide. That sounds like it would be devastating, except if there was no global market crash in 1918, there is certainly no reason for us to panic and create one today.

We need to stop panicking, stoically let the virus run its course and keep working or we might suffer an economic depression.

Nothing to see here, folks. Off to the next trump rally!

That must be the 13th time you've said that? You feeling OK? Got a fever? 38 people have died from the virus. In Coalinga, California, they had 17 people die just like that from a single traffic pile up. About 12 people die each year just falling into the Grand Canyon. 3,000 teens die every year just from texting.

Get a grip on yourself and stop being an ass. The Covid scare is becoming a joke for what it is doing to the country over a handful of deaths.

Get some new material you pathetic loser. Hoping for American deaths. You are a pathetic POS. Just like the rest of your lying Dims.

Expect as much from the party which promotes the savage butchery of 1,000,000+ unborn babies every year and they call it "choice" even though the fathers have NO choice. The babies have no choice.
 
My wife was out shopping today. It's her normal day. She said it was madness.

Time to start selling those Post Outbreak Anti-Viral Herb Garden seed packages again.......

We had some people fighting for the toilet paper at my local grocery store. Another person overpaid for about 80 rolls. Also, place was packed with people, some products completely out of stock.

I think we've had 1 person total die from this. Everyone is anticipating the national quarantine. It's oversold, over promoted by MSM (especially in the U.S who want to hurt Trump and keep any focus away from Biden) and people become irrational.

Fortunate for them they didn’t have the internet or communications like today to cause mass panic like we do now.

You mean like Republicans showed us how to do it during the Ebola flare-up?



There's other videos that show's how truly reprehensible and kraven Republicans are, but did you mean like that OP?
 
No one has given the American people the kind of reassurance that is needed to for us to keep calm and carry on. If Americans are over-reacting it's because we know in our hearts our health care system cannot handle this effectively.

In 1918 people hardly had cars,no tv's, smartphones, computers, commercial air travel. The world was also not as globalized. Today people consume way more and that consumption is supplied by worldwide companies meaning that we are simply more vulnerable to disruption to that supply chain. My point is. Trying to make a direct correlation between 1918 and 2020 is simplistic.

Also, I will argue that although this virus more than likely will not cost anything even close to the 215 million people you suggest. The reason for that is because both our medical response and our ability to respond to something like a global pandemic have become more efficient. Sadly more efficient in this context comes down to more draconian in how to prevent the spreading of this disease making its economic impact larger.

Tell them to wipe their ass with tree bark or leaves like the old days and it's cheaper.

Well shit the top infectious disease doctor Fauci admitted to congress today that they have failed and don't have means to test.

Toilet paper will become so valuable the Federal Reserve in order to save the economy will declare it the new fiat currency replacing the dollar.
