Serious question. Do you think the media and Government are purposely fueling fear about the Coronavirus or should we be this worried? And do you think they are hiding information?

Yes, but yes we should be wary not worried, basic flu is still far deadlier and I haven't seen anyone freak out about those deaths. (Links will follow), 4,800 dead from flu and only 31 in the states in 2020 due to corona.
@Jchawes
They have cancelled college semesters I don't understand what they expect from us considering we still will live our daily lives going in public its to fuel fear in the public on my opinion. I don't understand what buying out toilet paper has anything to do with the virus ether
@Jchawes
I think they are purposefully fueling fear. Look at all the fear viruses that were supposed to kill us all every year. Zika. swine flu. Anthrax. Oil spills. List goes on and on. 🙄
@Jchawes
I think it's more the media outlets than the government, we just need to use common sense, we seem to have new strains of something all the time, just be smart.
@Jchawes
Media loves it. Gets them ratings. As for government, depends what party you’re talking about. Both sides trying to make political points (Dems actually hoping for market to suffer) and it sickens me.
@Jchawes
I think the media is hyping it way too much. I don’t remember 2009 H1N1 Pandemic being talked about near as much and it killed 12,000 people in the USA and people under 65 were hit as hard as Seniors.
@Jchawes
just the media. not the government. the governments national biodedense stragety is going great. the coronavirus task force has been 2 steps ahead of governor with complaints and every media issue.
@Jchawes
I think they are hyping it up some, but we all need to be careful and wash our hands and clean stuff anyway so it’s not really a new concept. The things they are telling us to do are things we should be doing on a daily basis anyway.
