I personally think the media are blowing this out of proportion.

China has a population of approximately 1 billion people and out of those 1 billion only 95,000 have caught the virus and out of those only 3000 have died - most of which were probably elderly or had already existing health problems. Of course those deaths are unfortunate and RIP to those who have passed away from it, but those numbers in the grand scheme of things aren't that high.

The only way China has been able to contain this virus is through unprecedented quarintine measures. If thats what it takes to contain the virus then that has huge ramifications for other countries who have community spread. Also viruses like this spread exponentially. The window of time it takes to leap from hundreds of cases to thousands of cases is extremely small.

America got a 7.14% death rate atm. 154 cases and 11 deaths. Hopefully that number drops, but so far the elderly are dropping like flies in one old age home alone...

Your mother is okay?

Yeah breh, they have her on home isolation for a couple weeks but said if she has it, than she is already past the worst part of what it would do (they said between day 5 and 9 is the deadliest). She has been sick over a week at home (like 10 days) and she is in the recovery phase and getting better at this point. Talked to her today and said she is doing better too :blessed:

We ain't out of the woods but it's looking good. Thank yall for the support, it means a lot
