The media and Democrats are just getting ridiculous as they spread misinformation about the coronavirus and now they have gone too far!
The horror of it is that they are inciting panic and fear which is leading to mass shortages of basic health supplies, meanwhile, only .000002 percent of the US population are infected with the coronavirus. They are continuing to push the envelope and are now comparing this to Chernobyl.
So far the seasonal flu is outnumbering coronavirus cases by a factor of 45,000. The flu season this year has been severe as 20,000 to 52,000 people have died in the US because of the flu. Now compare that to the twenty-nine people who have (sadly) passed away as a result of the coronavirus.
Infectious disease expert Dr. Paul Carson, who works for the North Dakota public health department, is reporting that this strain of flu we are experiencing this year is five times more contagious than the coronavirus. Earlier this week the Surgeon general reported that young adults and children are more susceptible to death from the flu this year than the coronavirus.
Surgeon general: “If you are a child or young adult, you are more likely to die from the flu, if you get it, than you are to die from coronavirus. So, there is something about being young that is protective.” https://t.co/mwpcexQZkh pic.twitter.com/IepUqFDQXH

The Whuhan virus that came from China has dripped into the US thanks to the President halting Chinese nationals from traveling to the US when the virus was barely being discussed.
It is clear that the corporate media is willing to put Americans into a panic just to attack President Trump. It’s gotten so bad that Washington Post columnist Brian Klass wrote a column on March 9th titled: “The Coronavirus Is Trump’s Chernobyl.”
Chernobyl was an explosion of a nuclear reactor in the Soviet Union that was hushed up by the communist government. As a result, locals were unaware of the radiation they were being exposed to and an estimated 9,000 to 16,000 people were killed and the explosion has been attributed to 3.5 million birth defects and other serious problems in Ukraine.
It’s odd that this would be “Trump’s Chernobyl” considering that the virus originated in China, meaning this would be China’s Chernobyl. Scientists believe that COVID-19 jumped to humans in late November but was covered up by the Chinese communist government until the outbreak was too big to keep under wraps.
Democrats are even starting to claim it’s racists to say the virus came from China however, it appears that maybe the Chinese government trying to evade being blamed.
It’s actually very important we continue to refer to COVID19 as the Wuhan Virus
The Chinese government is working overtime to blame the CIA and anyone else for their failings. The name should indicate exactly where it came from so they can’t gaslight future generations

Last week an MSNBC panel was giddy that the coronavirus could be Trump’s Katrina:
“I should mention this with a little trepidation, but this may be Donald Trump’s Katrina,” said panelist Eddie Glaude Jr.
“Let’s just lean into that for a minute,” responded MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace. “I mean, Katrina was the moment when all of the things that felt incredibly incompetent about the Bush presidency… were realized. We gave them a proof point that we were indeed incompetent. And also people died. I mean, this has the makings, structurally, for the same kind of moment for President Trump.”
“And if there’s any a moment that would shake that 40 percent — the folks who would allow him to shoot someone right down Fifth Avenue — if there’s any a moment it’s this one,” Glaude responded. “Because it’s babies, it’s friends, it’s loved ones, it’s grand parents, it’s your nana. So it seems to me this is an event that could take down a president.”

The media’s behavior during this event is shameful, as we get through this and the dust settles we will not forget all the fear-mongering and chaos the media tried to create. After spending almost four years trying to take down the President this could be the straw that breaks the camels back and people finally reject the media.
