JFC- you need to chill out, this is getting serious. People like you are the ones who are going to spread it.

You're totally right and it seems the first wave of symptoms are close to a severe cold (normally I just go about my day when I have one) and incubation has been rumored to be crazy (and potentially contagious).

It's obviously serious and time to stop downplaying it (but we do need to avoid fear mongering)- why else would Italy literally halt its economy? Or Denmark? Or have a ~$1 trillion stimulus package on the table? Just getting sick of those stupid posts and now half this thread is unreadable from the ignored users

Lol.. how can you tell me to chill out, and then say that?

What changed in the past few days? Were events cancelled, or did the virus suddenly become a heck of a lot worse?

Fear is one hell of an emotion.

He did that 2 days ago- no one knew he had it then, I'm sure he would have acted differently had he known. I think it was a mistake that he more than likely feels bad about in hind sight (if he remembers)- I don't think he should be banned nor deported

I appreciate you being the voice of reason. Nothing has systematically changed in the past 24 hours, but since the NBA cancelled games—let’s be afraid.

Palpable panic has basically been turned up to a million.

You realize that cancelling all flights to Europe is unprecedented and a cause to have some worry, especially when things were being downplayed by certain people literally 24 hours ago- that's what worrisome, things changed in that time frame

Also, THIS came out in that time period, granted it still is awaiting a peer review

Right!

-The WHO didn’t declare a Pandemic
-The President didn’t halt travel to another continent.

Business as usual!

Tests take 48 hours so clearly he was feeling sick

Just booked round trip flights to Cancun for me and the GF for a RIDICULOUS $472 COMBINED!! I hope this panic lasts a while longer. I usually take vacation in August too.

I wouldn’t leave the country if I was you

They might put a travel ban on Mexico like with Europe
