Sorry I’m not scared. Virus only affects elderly or people with chronic respiratory issues. 
the way people are panicking right now you would think body carts would be coming to our neighborhood during trash days.
 I listen to the experts (ie: doctors) and all experts are saying that the media is blowing this way out and have no idea what they are talking about. Basically saying stop reporting on medical issues you have no clue about.

 

 

My primary source of information on this is a good college friend who is a PhD who previously worked for the CDC and is currently a professor at Johns Hopkins specializing in infectious disease. 

You shouldn't be scared, but you should be aware and you should try to take precautions to avoid the spread of this disease to try to help protect the types of people who you just patently dismissed.

Well yeah...if I’m coughing or think I have it I’m not going to go to the mall and give it to everyone. Yes everyone should be vigilant and act with precaution. I just think this massive “freak out” from the public is unwarranted.

Fox news doctors maybe.  I'd do some further research if I were you.  The ones that say "I'm not scared," are the first to get it.

I just left the grocery store about an hour ago. Seemed like any other day other than people being a lot more diligent to wipe down their carts and toilet paper (?) and hand sanitizer being out of stock. Where are these people who are "freaking out"?

You’d be surprised how many people totally don’t care about their fellow Americans.

I’m “informed” not scared. This virus affects elderly and people with chronic dieases. If people we dying that are young and healthy and children, then it would be a different story.

medical community has stated numerous times that “‘majority” of people getting Cv-19 will only experience mild symptoms.

I still have three grandparents alive. My former next door neighbor who I still keep in touch with is 82 years old. I give a poo about those people. I'm not really scared for myself but to be honest, yeah I am scared for those people.

That’s just being a responsible human.  Wish more people would think that way.

I did not say to not give a crap about the elderly. Yes we have to help them out and be vigilant. I was going to let my 90 year old great Aunt see my daughter (who is 19months) old for the first time last week, but I decided against it because my wife is still feeling sick from being pregnant and I didn’t want to chance it. So yes I do care about the elderly and family members of my own who are old.

      Best to see Icky in the position we drafted him in to see if he continues making progress. All signs point to Canales/Morgan staying on board and so decisions on whether to move him elsewhere on the line will probably be done during the offseason. Personally, I'm more concerned about a more long-term answer at safety and Moton's spot. Love the guy but he's a FA after 2026 and he'll be 32 by then. Kinda has that sign of having to let a player walk one year too early.

      All I am saying is IMO if we were going to rework or extend his deal I think it would have happened by now.   Just feels like they are going to bite the bullet and let it run its course

      I mean me speaking honestly per normal- RT is not even on my radar for needing fixing....it sorta should be, but I feel its around 20s in "hey this need attention". Motown could have another 5 years of solid play leftd in his body and mind. I know something needs to done with his contract, its had money pushed back into the late years like three times now. He got like a 38 million cap number cause rhule, frittterererer and this past season Dan deferred money.  I think he's been "healthy" for most of his career and seems to work hard at being able to play. He's a good player to have on the team. I got no idea how this plays out.   We need to have friendly bet about Christs next contract- I say he gets 8million per and 40% guaranteed. If he gets below that, you are the true kungfu master- deal?
