List one post I've ever made where I proposed or defended some radical/extreme posture one way or another. I'll wait.
Obviously people need to try and take whatever REASONABLE precautions they can to avoid passing this thing around.
HOWEVER, it's a fact that it's going to eventually get to everyone. Just like the common cold. And we're not talking about the plague here or Ebola, people. Even if you catch this thing you more than 20 times more likely to survive the thing than not.
Now you want to sit here and whine about how "we need to shut down all of society until the CDC/whoever gets this thing under control," or whatever, you might as well dig a hole, jump in, and pull it in after you.
