A prudent step to help contain/slow the spread is limit large groups.

Correct it’s not Ebola. It surpassed Ebola a long time ago and it’s projected to continue far longer.

No, it's not in the same league. Ebola death rate is over 50%.

Correct, but the response of some here makes it sound like they believe this is the black plague.

You are playing the numbers game when real lives are at stake. Try listening to all the experts for once.

Anyone who believes the entire country should have been under complete lockdown since the first case arrived here.
