It’s named Anfluvi-20. According to the CDC, this virus will kill between 300,000-650,000 per year worldwide and infect 3 to 5 million people!
This is disturbing news. I don’t know how our fragile, easily panicked nation can survive. Is there no safe space where we can get away from this???
Further, how can the media properly hype this virus when so much effort is needed to hype the coronavirus/Covid-19?
The county shut down our public schools, too. Even though the number of children worldwide more than mildly effected by the coronavirus now numbers basically zero, it is better to be safe than sorry. If we can save just one child from getting the sniffles, it will be worth it.
Oh geez! There’s another one to worry about! Virus!

Do you mean strain? As there is the S strain from China and a mutated L strain in Italy. Same virus different strains. But it's why theu're worried.

I didn’t find that on the Centers for Disease Control website

I had a chance finally to speak to my 67-year-old cousin that has this. "hope it can't spread via phone line" She is doing OK. She is spending most of her time enjoying the peace and quiet and watching old movies. Some minor issues, but her doctor is treating her and she is doing great, so far! I have been reading where some kids are calling Covid 19 Boomer Remover. As a Boomer, I resemble that remark!

I'm no Boomer but, thank you to all the gods, I'm no pansy millennial, either. And, I'm sorry but, if peanut butter scares you, you're in no position to tell me what's best for the world.

The point behind closing the schools, and other things isnt about the fact that most cases are mild. It's about sharing it with the immune compromised.
"Afraid" of peanut butter... you realize that its deadly to some ppl, right????TruckChicken, Tb0n3 and Just passing by Thank this. -
I'm a millenial but I choose to self-identify as a boomer
My generation (and the one after it) are, for the most part, useless.LoneRanger, D.Tibbitt, TokyoJoe and 2 others Thank this. -
