You just need time to come to terms with it, it's not that bad, it's some hardship for a short time to save lives and stop a luch, much worse hardship from happening. We'll keep this from getting into the millions of dead at the very least and letting economy get crushed which will save lives down the line but most importantly right now we will save those who are the first in line to die. Take a step back and look at the bigger picture and be sensible, man. 

I am, and that's why Im saying these stuff for you and the others.

Having tunnel vision just because there is an outbreak of a virus that isn't even THAT dangerous and with the governments around the world already taking the necessary measures will just worsen the situation.

Panicking about it now will result into what you have been witnessing:People hoarding products, which in turn will lead to scarcity of these same products that, if people were more calm about this whole situation, could be prevented.This way, everyone would have access to hand sanitizes for example, and that could help reduce the number of people being affected.

The same goes for economy.If you go nuclear about this, forget about the virus, we will probably even miss this period.People will die because they won't be able to afford their medical bills when this crisis hits.

So that's why is so important to take just the necessary measures to combat this outbreak, without destroying every other aspect of our society.

I agree, all the panic only increases the damage and instead of focussing on the weak we tend to just focus on the bigger slice of people that do not have to face danger from this because now that we can get a slight cold from this it is suddenly important.

Now the weak will die from it and on top of that we get the economic damage from the panic,panic is never a resolve.
