The whole story is even "an incompetent sports personality" is 100x more accurate than your doomsday idiot. And tens of thousands of people die in the US from the flu each year and no one celebrates.:eyeroll:

He wasn’t even accurate in the summary. He’s rarely accurate in sports.

It’s not the scientist’s fault that reading comprehension is an issue with so many.

You are correct an average of 40k people die yearly from the flu. It’s extremely serious hence the antiviral drugs and vaccines produced to combat the spread.

Now, imagine a novel “flu” that spreads 3 times faster with ZERO methods to combat it. No vaccine, no antivirals, and most importantly the disease is novel, or new, so humans do not have an immunity like they do to various forms of influenza.

The only method of stopping the spread and the devastating consequences of the doomsday prognosticators is staying away and shutting down.
