Roughly 100 people - many very healthy - die per day in traffic across the US. So far 51 people died from the coronavirus. Maybe net net it's saving lives as many streets have become ghost towns, that should save at least 10 traffic deaths per day. Not to mention those causing lifelong injuries and disabilities.
If you stated it in listing fuck them.
Ebola and didn't make it the only story on TV?

Hahaha... You guys are meaner than me. I'm offering 50% back. Although partly because I don't want "He's a coronavirus meanie!" reviews to screw up my near perfect set so far.
Right and Ebola and Covid-19 are almost the same. Very similar rates of and means of transmission, and equally likely to grow out of control, and likelyhood of growing exponentially in the US

You got that out of my comments? I contrasted the media's presentation.
Do H1N1 and Coronavirus, instead. The media also did not hype H1N1 like it did this Wu Ping Cough, though millions got it and it caused 11,000 deaths in the USA.
All this is hype is doing is further destroying the already low credibility of the News Media. In a few weeks, if bodies don't pile up in morgues, anybody who can be woken up will be awoken.

That is actually being considered as the strategy in Britain:

Trudeau refuses to cancel direct flights from China. Today planes landed from Shanghai, Chengdu, Hong Kong, Beijing and other cities. Upon arrival, migrants are asked a question on a screen — in English & French — if they’ve been to “Hubei province”. And then they walk through.
Just ban anyone that isn't a healthcare worker from interacting with the elderly. Specifically in nursing homes.

Then apparently your point was that the media presents very different things that have very different levels of danger to the population differently.
Well that was a flu right ? Also different. But in hindsight, they probably also learned something then about the need to improve our preparedness, which is in fact probably now worse. Hence the talk of "flattening the curve," so that the stress on our system is spread out a little and we don't get an Italy situation. Especially considering it's already a bad flu season.
So all the ranting about Trump being a racist for closing travel from China is going to be apologized for?

Who ranted about it ? It wasn't me or any moderates liberals.
..
Holy crap!
right wingers are trying to downplay it because of Trump
You could never tolerate someone that wants to bring a strong middle together behind a leader that is good for most of us.
I hate Trump and what he stands for every bit as much as you hate the SJWs and the wierdos.
We (I) don't hate the pathetic SJW's and weirdos. AS long as they are not instigating riots or hitting people with bike locks I have compassion for their idiosyncrasies.

Thing is, the SJW's are overtly racist and sexist against innocent white people and innocent men. They lump everyone together as racists and sexists do, by definition.
I think it's known, so let's call a spade a spade. SJW people are the loser/weirdo people from high school. They're the idiots that didn't grow up and have all this angst towards everyone else when they are their own worst enemy.
Man would fain be great and sees that he is little; would fain be happy and sees that he is miserable; would fain be perfect and sees that he is full of imperfections; would fain be the object of love and esteem of men, and sees that his faults merit only their aversion and contempt. The embarrassment wherein he finds himself produces in him the most unjust and criminal passions imaginable, for he conceives a mortal hatred against the truth which blames him and convinces him of his faults. ~ Blaise Pascal
