      FFS, HTFU. Unless you're over 70, or more importantly 80, and/or have an underlying respiratory illness, you'll be fine.
      Not sure what youre driving at here. Because TB this means Covid-19 that..

      Who doesnt care? You? People on this forum, or just everyone generally? Please dont generalise and try to shame a bunch of strangers on the internet. You have no idea. You also dont sound like you care much about older and weaker people yourself.

      Approx 20% of people who get the new coronavirus require hospitalisation (severe and critical). Though less likely it is quite capable of killing a younger healthier person. This isnt a little cold.

        Exactly. Once the hospitals get overwhelmed with these cases the death-rate will soar, as is happening now in Iran. Our government has completely underestimated this and the price is going to be phenomenal.
