Our government is overreacting to it, just like every other government in the world.
Less than 250,000 victims, less than 20,000 deaths in the entire world--all elderly or with pre-existing health issues affecting immunity--since December. Younger and generally-healthy people have a minimum 98% recovery rate. That's reason to declare a pandemic that grinds everyday life to a halt for weeks or months? Puts people out of work and demolishes worldwide economies? I say "nay, nay".
It's an entirely media-driven panic. It's either worse than we're being told, much worse, or there's another agenda behind it all.
I think Trump and Boris and his Brexit have the Globalist weasels scared shitless. Bu that's just me.
