My neighbor who is a doctor said she thinks China intentionally released virus
That is such a scary thought 
......and why release it into your own country?
Population control, their other attempts at decreasing population haven't had the desired effect |

They have been having a lot of rioting in China due to communism, seems younger people are wanting some freedom, most of the rioting seemed to be in the area where the virus started. I totally think they released it themselves to stop the rioting. Plus added bonus of population control.

      Location: California | No. The media has dramatized the outbreak, but with that said I wouldn't travel in that area or take a cruise any time soon. Ebola is a good example. People do not know, but the Democratic Republic of the Congo has been in an outbreak of Ebola since August 2018, and it is the second largest outbreak of Ebola. It was declared a National Emergency in July 2019 by the World Health Organization, yet most people hardly know about it because it not being reported on. Ebola is just as dangerous today as it was in 2016, but the panic has faded. |

| First U. S coronavirus death confirmed. Now let the panic really begin. It's on every news station, radio station... are they trying to make the public panic on purpose??! Food shortages? Received emails saying better get stocked up on food survival kits etc etc... its seriously getting out of hand. I'm not discounting the seriousness or severity of it but I feel like some of the panic and warnings are unwarranted I got a text from my sister in a panic because she works at a bank and they sent out a company wide email saying to use caution dealing with the public because of coronavirus. My sister is a bit if a hypochondriac anyway so this just pushed her over her limit! I told her like our dr friend, who is an infectious disease doctor, told us... use common sense, wash hands, avoid super crowded areas and most importantly, remain calm... take care of yourself to stay healthy as you can. For anyone with a compromised Immune system, like my son, use extra caution... no need to run into the bunker with your survival kits and MRE's ... flu is still more dangerous and deadly than this coronavirus. Why is this blowing up so much? "Coronavirus crisis " is what I'm seeing splashed all over the place ... along with politicizing it... is this something to keep our attention from something else perhaps?! |

Listen to Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi, throw in the liberal media, and you'll know why panic is a possibility. Also note that the cases you're seeing pop up here in the US just happen to be in sanctuary cities. When Trump again tries to double down on closing the border, they all scream racist. |

        Location: Ky | We have some friends that arrived in Belieze yesterday and they were taken to medical for a couple hour of test before they would let them go to their resort. But they were eventually allowed to continue on. We have some other friends that are part of a group going to Italy in 3 weeks. Their trip has now been cancelled by the travel agency. And right now they are saying there are no refunds when cancelled for health reasons. That fight has just started so I don't know how that will work out. For the flights Delta is giving them vouchers that be used another time. |

      Location: Slipping down the slope of old age. Boo hoo. | The news media is causing unnecessary panic -- many, many more people have died and continue to die due to the flu this year and the news has little to say about that. Ebola is ravaging areas in Africa and has been for several years. We have forgotten about SARS and MERS, etc., and the fact we came through those just fine. The USA has a strong and effective protocol for infectious diseases. We have the best medical care in the world. I have acquaintances who hate Trump and are actually reveling in the fact this Coronavirus has caused the stock market to fall and cause such panic. They hope it helps defeat Trump. It's mind-boggling that some people have such hatred that they are excited about the virus effect on our country and Trump. Wash your hands. Avoid crowded places. Help stop idiotic panic. We are close to having a vaccine.

        Location: Kansas | ....and where too was the outrage when African illegals from Cameroon and the Congo began showing up in our Southern states. The Congo is the hub for Ebola. I saw reporters speak to some in Houston who were just standing in the street asking where they went to get the free money they were expecting. Thank you George Soros. Again, a new case overnight in Chicago which is a sanctuary city.

| I'm kinda torn now, for the first time since all this started. I wasnt too concerned but I'm starting to think it may be more serious than I thought or would like to think. I dont watch much tv anyway but everytime I walk by a tv its something about coronavirus. We decided to go to town last night to eat an early dinner at our favorite Mexican joint. They now have a hand sanitizer station deal set up right by the front door, before you even walk in. And inside there were bottles of hand sanitizer on each table. Tonight, my daughter and I decided to do some late night grocery shopping, I usually do this to avoid the crowd Sunday after church shopping. Late Saturday nights the store is pretty much a ghost town. Each cashier had a huge bottle of hand sanitizer at their register and a second big bottle next to the credit card scanner for customers .. I've never seen that before. My sister in law works in administration for a large hospital out this way and she told me they received an email from corporate yesterday advising them to get some significant cash from their accounts "just in case" things get to that point. I'd usually just shrug and blow it off thinking that's being way too paranoid but it made me get a little nervous. |
