Well, what is the guy wrong about? Do you not find it the least bit interesting that someone who was so certain it was "just the flu" could change his mind so much after facing real-life cases? And can you tell me that we have enough ventilators to handle the amount of cases coming? Did you even research the numbers on that?

It's astonishing how people here are allowing themselves to be such sheep on this topic without even looking at the facts. All because they're so used to the media crying wolf, that when the media hijacks a real crisis to try and take down Trump with it, you people act like it must not actually be a crisis. I can't really blame you, but come on! Open your eyes and look at what's happening. Italy and China have never reacted to "just the flu" with such drastic measures in the past.

Are you looking at the numbers and the projections on a daily basis? Are you looking at what's happened in Italy? Are you looking at the interviews with the Italian doctors? Are you looking at how many ventilators we have vs. how many we'll need? Are you looking at how many COVID patients are being admitted to Italian hospitals at a fast rate, while patients are discharged at a slow rate?

The system in Italy is buckling under the sheer number of cases who need ICU. We need to slow the spread here, or we are in some serious trouble. Our hospitals do not have enough ventilators to handle what's coming. Please, please do some more research and don't write this all off just because the media is trying to incite panic.
