Riddle me this, math-statistics majors:
Is 100 deaths in America, from this grim epidemic, worth all of the "hair-on-fire" media coverage?
While each life lost is a tragedy, does anybody elsejoing me in believing this is partly media working hard to assist the dem brethren, bringing down Trump, and/or damaging him?

I can only say, that according to the medical experts/CDC this virus will not reach a peak until at least 45 days. Consider that the state of FL 3 days ago hit 100 cases, today we have 192. So this virus has nearly doubled in 3 days. I'd say that is absolute reason for concern...continue to do the math, in another 3 days we could see 400 and 3 more days, 800 and in two complete weeks over 1,600. In 45 days that number could reach 3,200+ IF indeed the project 45 day peak is accurate. Keep in mind, that we are just now getting testing made more available. I think the number testing positive could rise significantly. This will continue until we either find a vaccine (which is 18 months out at minimum) or social distance. Those our are choices. This isn't a hair on fire reaction.
The concern is also available uninfected medical personnel, hospital beds and ventilators. In my county for example we have 4 hospitals with a 1,330 bed capacity for a population of approximately 750,000 people and that number is much higher right now because of tourists. So do the math; if even 1% of the population becomes ill ... there just isn't the room nor medical personnel to handle that. People will die simply because they couldn't get treated.
The time to act is now, not when our hospitals are exploding ... and ours right now already are.
It might be different in your area; your hospitals may be generously staffed and more than adequate bed space, but here we have huge concerns.
