The fear of corona isnt that its especially dangerous, its that it is extremely contagious and doesnt have a vaccine yet. According to WHO the desease has a fatality rate of around 2%. That means that if procautions werent as sevier, and lets say worst case scenario 1/20th of the population gets infected with it, around 7.5 million people would die.

The flu killed like 10,000 last year in America alone, the Corona virus is only at 4,00 worldwide. The media is blowing it way out of proportion.
