RE: ecoTrain QOTW: Are you worried about Coronavirus, and what are you doing differently (if anything) since you heard about it?
Wrong, not probably old people.
This virus is airborne so there's no need to cough first to get it. It's in the air and waits for you to die.
It looks as if the auto immune system is not beating it you can get it twice or who knows what is negative will be "suddenly" positive after the test. It might not be strong enough to kill many but isn't it interesting how it keeps spreading and weakening the population?
There's no news in Germany because you live in Germany and the flu is not hot news because "only the old and weak" have it.
Believe me there are way more with this virus as we know and are told.
No one turned into a zombie where I live, no one seems to think one day or option further as usually. That's the great thing about living in a western country. Not taking responsibility for your own deeds. If something goes wrong you blame the government, the one who was the first known victim in your country or the Chinese who developed it in a lab.
It's not different from the plague in the middle aged, we blamed the rats but dirty people spread it. It's the dame this time.
This virus reminds me of the hiv-virus, I'm sure this one will change too. It's s great thing viruses do.... Changing fast.
Scare tactics of the media? I cannot say that. It's more the media is covering up what is really going on...I guess that depends on which media/government and country too. Stay healthy. 💕
I may use your words: wrong
A virus can't fly by itself because a virus doesn't have wings.
The virus needs a carrier substance with which it moves, i.e. droplets that are produced when coughing and sneezing. These can of course also be smeared on objects.
But a virus does not lurk in the air for victims...
People believe the media that scream the loudest, but these are also the most unreliable, the ones who make money by panicking and whose "factual" articles are only based on clickbait.
Yesterday I saw on the homepage of a newspaper that they just pick out parts that virologists say and make them sound as horrible as possible.
Yes, 60-70% will get the disease (as with a cold virus too), but the newspaper left out the period of time they talked about and directly below it a video with the title: Corona is more deadly than the flu - this is what the virus does to your body!
And that's the kind of garbage people parrot. Sources are never questioned.
The fact that one can be infected several times is probably due to the fact that people with an illness that has not been cured had a relapse and went to another hospital, where they were naturally considered newly infected.

Here is a great site with some statistics from all countries. How meaningful the respective countries are is of course another question. For example, in the Hubei region in China many people with fever are classified as infected with corona, which is why the number of infected people increased tenfold. So many other diseases are lumped together.
South Korea provides more reliable figures.
I just wish people would use more reliable sources instead of "I heard that..."
People with suspicions about Corona are so scared by the media, that they run wild and spread the virus. Not to mention that these people can't seem to be doing too badly when they are so active...

I doubt if media scream out the loudest. There's for at least 50 years no objective media. Governments use it to brainwash people or make them believe what they want them to believe.
Thanks for taking the time answering and the link (do not believe everything published on the internet). 👍💕
That's why I trust more in science, even if this information always gets lost or is taken out of context and thus misrepresented in order to earn more money ...
But lets hope for the best for the time ahead.
I hope science is not covering it up either. Fingers crossed it will be over in a few months. Enjoy your day. 💕
