When the stuff does hit the fan, there will be no reason to be surprised. We know it is coming. We have known.

So much of the fallout that is coming will be our own fault. The ironic part is the people being ignorant and running around dismissing this and comparing it to the flu are doing so, because they are actually scared. Scared of "the media" and political parties. And because they fear experts and sound advice they think they need to act tough and ignore reality.

So in everyone's effort to not to "freak out" about the virus and show how "tough" they are......they will let their fear of "the media" and political parties cause problems.

I am honestly a bit shocked that so many people are scared of people with college degrees. Those evil smart guys in their lab coats
I will be interested to see what happens in China in the coming weeks. They are down to about 10 new cases per day now. Down from about 500 per day last week. The quarantine works very well because it limits where the virus can go. With that said, what happens when the quarantine is lifted. Does it jump back up and start all over again or is it effectively gone. If it is contagious as reported (which it appears to be), along with long incubation periods and half-life on surfaces then unless they eradicated every bit of the virus it will all just start right back up again once people begin to mingle once more.
