It's 10 times deadlier than the flu, 10 times as contagious and there is no vaccine? There's points A, B, C.

I agree that the "all going to die" is hysterics, and I'm not sure anyone is saying that. I'm in fort Wayne and there are already 5-6 cases, one from a vendor at the home and garden show where he perhaps saw thousands of people.

By the time you double every square of the chessboard, there are a great many sick and a great many dead. I would imagine that you and I will know many of them also.
