The flu kills over 500,000 worldwide per year, and that is with vaccines.

The media has overblown the coronavirus because it blew up so quick. But comments comparing it to Katrina for example is politicizing it in typical media fashion.

To say the media has over blown it is border line ignorant. Any news on how to deal with this or what is being done and not done about it .......is not the media blowing it out of proportion and to throw blame there is trump like stupidity!

“You always have to hope for the best, but you absolutely have to prepare for the worst,” said Dr. Anand Parekh of the Bipartisan Policy Center on Yahoo Finance’s The First Trade.

Parekh served as U.S. Department of Health & Human Services deputy assistant secretary for health from 2008 to 2015.

“I think the critical thing here for the American people is not to panic, but to be prepared,” Parekh added.

Walking in Baltimore i have far more risk of violent death then catching coronavirus. If you are under 40 and healthy and catch the coronavirus you have less than 2 in 1000 chance of dying.

You wouldn't think these based on the hyper coverage from all the media.

With all that said, the last sentence of your post is absolutely correct,

“I think the critical thing here for the American people is not to panic, but to be prepared,” Parekh added
