This whole thing stinks to high heaven. At most so far 59 people have died, with most of them being in one nursing home in Kirkland WA. The media is fear mongering harder than ever to make orange man look bad. Schools and businesses are closing which is sure to send us into recession if not worse. Out of 330,000,000 people, 59 have died in the US and everything is screeching to a halt. Something isn't right here but it's fucking everything up. The economy was the best it's ever been in the history of our country and now everything is going to shit because of less than 100 deaths. More people probably die each year from skiing accidents. This is un fucking believable.
EDIT: I'm not saying this is a total hoax. I'm saying the media overreaction is making things way worse than they have to be. Panicking is never going to make anything better. If this is truly as bad as some of you are saying, I hope it justifies sending our economy into great depression 2 Corona boogaloo
A Dem guy every time I bring that point up:

Yes. Yes we do. And it still kills that many people without you or the media glued to the story.
And the vaccine doesn't always work and is based on "best guess." And it's made by the CDC which everyone is bagging on right now.
Not to mention the secret fund used to quiet the families of anyone injured/killed by vaccines.
There's no such thing as a cure-all medicine, partially because every disease is different and partially because every patient is different.
Often the vaccine is less than 10% effective. Usually it's less than a coin flip. And we have no idea what the ramifications are because they haven't tested the new formulations for the vaccine in over a decade.
Overwhelming majority that die of flu don’t get the flu shot.
The flu shot is usually about 40%-60% effective at preventing you from getting the flu but its very effective at preventing you from dying of the flu.
That is just not true. Flu vaccine only protects against specific strains. It does not give the patient flu toughness.
Yes and no. The flu vaccine is only moderately effective at best for the year you get it because there are so many strains.
But if you get one every year, you end up with antibodies for all the different strains and if they guessed wrong this year it's okay because you got the shot three years ago that had that strain.
One flu shot doesn't do much. Annual flu shots basically make you immune.
If this were even remotely factual, why do we see the exact same number of deaths as we always have? Use your brain, man. These vaccines are 100% about money, not health.
