Am I scaring you? You now have enough info to become a super-hypochondriac. How is it you can't shrivel under the knowledge of the hundreds of thousands of dangerous viruses that you have, but you you want to focus on Covid-19 which isn't really all that dangerous?
Why do you like to listen to all the media hearsay, but not look at the logic?
Everyone knows we are surrounded by micro-organisms. The thing about a pandemic is that they are new viruses against which humans don't have immunity. When such a virus becomes highly contagious, it can wreck havoc and cause several deaths like this one has. You cannot close your eyes to history or to the death tolls in Italy, USA etc. Such hyperbole is just stupid. Why do you like to listen to all the media hearsay, but not look at the logic?
It does feel unsafe to be outside because in countries like mine with huge population, low levels of awareness and tendency of people to panic, a spread can spell disaster. For now, it has become endemic in major metro cities and hasn't reached smaller towns owing to quarantine procedures and people following guidelines. You just have to be smart now. Travel has resumed and there still isn't widespread testing available. You could be safe in your community but people tend to do stupid things like hide travel histories. That apprehension is a little unnerving but the show must goes on.
