    OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
    The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

    Now don't get me wrong, lots of Americans will get sick and die. This is certainly serious, but I just don't see how this gets in the millions of deaths for Americans... there's hasn't even been 5,000 deaths worldwide yet

    Go read Chemosabe's posts on the Wayne and Hobbes Auburn message board. Everybody needs to calm down and quit panicking over this. Every person in the medical field I know is stating that this is getting tremendously overblown.

    That is strange. My daughter fell and split her head this weekend so we had an ER visit. the ER doc said they had had several meetings about the virus and that is was a pretty serious thing. He said it's nothing to panic over but that it is definitely a serious issue and to just be aware of it/cautious.

    Playing it down like it is nothing is just as bad as starting the fear mongering that we have seen. Everyone just needs to take it seriously but not freak out. The truth usually lies somewhere in the middle.

    Good post. There's such a fine line between absolute hysteria and not doing anything. People are going a little to far on both sides of this issue. Just like Dr. Ben Carson said on Sunday. Treat this seriously but don't stop living your life.

    Because the truth is, if this keeps a student from becoming properly trained......well it's not the online classes fault. That student needs to find a new career
    That is a totally bogus statement. You can NOT learn any medically related field from a book or online. You just cant. It takes clinical experience.

    Yeah, and my Facebook is full of people on cruise ships, in Florida, and New York. About two weeks after Spring Break it will explode here.

    Ah so ignorant as always. You don't think people can't learn thru computer simulations?

    Not in the medical field. You can learn the basics and the theory. You can't learn the art. All those interesting organs and nasty diseases are attached to human beings with personalities and individual physiologies. In a simulation you are presented with x and if you do y you get z. It doesn't work that way with real live humans. Health science IS a science, but practicing any health related field is also an art. I would not let a simulation only trained practitioner touch me, ever. You are the one showing ignorance here man. Sorry.

    I'd bet you all your VCash that the US has 30,000 confirmed cases by the start of Summer. We didn't do enough to contain it initially and it will slowly spread out. Bad take.

    You will be surprised how many more surgeries will be done by dr's who only interact with computers or the surgeries are done by robots... in the not so distant future.

    You think a few weeks of interruption will keep a person from becoming properly trained?

    Wow and lol
