I work with nutty lefty progressives statewide. I want to add a news item about preparing for coronavirus. However, I want to share (and be able to link to) FACTS that show this is not as terrible as the fearmongering fake media is screaming in their faces daily. I saw somewhere about how more people died from delays back in 08 or 09 about how waiting to take action caused many more deaths (under hussein).

I'd love to be able to source this... about pandemic fearmongering... 2004: SARS 2008: AVIAN 2010: SWINE 2012: MERS 2014: EBOLA 2016: ZIKA 2018: EBOLA 2020: CORONA

I can't make my statements/links appear anything other than "by the book"... this is an incredibly opportunity to introduce a huge population to other news sources, such as OAN, where there's no big stigma like there would be if I provided a Fox source. Thank you!
