You saying the concern isn’t warranted???

You're a health professional with pandemic experience?
NDPREP wrote:The problem that people fail to realize is these pandemic situations are doubling scenarios, so you get 1 case, then 2, then 4 doesn't seem bad. But then you go 500, 1000, 2000, 4000 and it rapidly escalates. Italy and europe are seeing the reported 5% death rate (200 people died in a 24 hours period), flu is typically .1% so this virus is a real cause for concern especially for people in compromised groups. People tend to go oh Im safe and will just get a little sick but in europe 10% of healthy people are ending up hospitalized from it but not dieing. Couple that with the fact that incubation can be 3-14 days and you are infectious while that is occurring you have a chance to spread it to a whole host of compromised people before you would even know it, you know say at a state tournament where a lot of grand parents or older people might be coming to watch grand sons, grand daughters, nieces, and nephews play....
Maybe not a reason to climb into that bunker in your back yard but taking precautions and avoiding crowded shoulder to shoulder venues? not a terrible idea.
