"Its insane how much forceful denial there is out there about this situation. Why? What is there to gain by recklessly ignoring facts? No one gets a reward for blindly going down with a sinking ship."
Using the Titanic for the historical lesson, the "gain" is you get a less crowded lifeboat, while the others drown.
Regardless of where it came from, everyone in the world has either already been or is going to be directly affected by this stupid virus because it clearly does not care if you are a tree hugging liberal, bible thumping conservative or rural Chinese peasant.
Those who chose to ignore facts do so at their own peril.
