Hey, the media skepticism is totally warranted. However, this is not something that is constrained to the US. Every western nation is either looking at the first steps of the contagion or full fledged outbreaks like Italy, Spain, France and Germany.

It’s not just the flu, that myth needs to die quickly. Italy has a lot of cases of people in their 40s with no previous conditions dying from infection. This may be no symptoms in some, mild symptoms in others, and severe respiratory issues for a still significant few. That gets exacerbated by a scarcity in the medical system if we don’t act to slow or mitigate its spread.
