The unlettered and unwashed masses will believe anything they hear as "facts." The public panic in the West regarding this epidemic has more to do with their governments not censoring fake news and conspiracy paranoia, than improper dissemination of facts. Now, there are fools who proclaim that the viral infection originated in the US. Information ought to be disseminated on a need to know basis, and much of the information regarding epidemic containment, the public has no business acquiring.
Zero facts in this statement.
Unfortunately, your opinions aren't well received either.
Its like a hawk trying to justify its existence to a field mouse.
