Feel exactly the same Psych.

Honestly, I haven't paid attention to what is being said about the thing or if experts are lying about it. I hear word that people are dying of it and steps to avoid spreading it have been suggested and sometimes taken.
The media panic doesn't really apply to this situation, unless we think Rodger Godell saw some expert lying about it on the news and decided to pull the plug on the NFL season on that hunch alone.
It is a big deal, but as Psych here says the media is using a pandemic for political gain in this situation which is disgusting.
Where did this Virus come from? China, who gains from our economy falling on its face?
Not trying to be a conspiracy theorist here, but people can make viruses in labs and have done it in the past.
Is it a coincidence that this stopped the Hong Kong riots? I don't think so.
But now I am wandering into the damn political spectrum again damn it.
