Most know we are missionaries in Brazil...could someone inform us of the REAL situation in the USA concerning this virus? Is it true that the gov. is planning on shutting down the freeways? We hear so much in Brazil but don't know how much is fake news...In some areas of Brazil, the government put a mandatory rule not to gather for church services yesterday and I guess until further notice...here in our city at this moment there are no mandatory laws. Just wondering the real situation...at least what you think it is...

So far they frown on gatherings of more than 250. Some states and cities are doing their own thing. Many schools and colleges have closed.

Mass hysteria. People are in panic mode. The sky is falling.

Haven't heard of freeways shutting down.

Schools and colleges have closed, most for the rest of March at least.

All sports have been cancelled or suspended for the next few months.

Several states have ordered or requested bars, restaurants and entertainment to close.

Most states are limiting crowds to less than 250, a few less than that. CDC recommending no crowds over 50.

People are still panic-buying and stocking up on food. This morning I went to a couple stores to get some water and TP. We had 1 1/2 rolls of TP left, so it was going to get real with a family of 5 soon. :lol

First grocery store opened at 6 am, at 545 when I drove into the parking lot, it was full and about 50 or more were crowded in front of the doors with cars still coming and people running towards the doors.

I turned around and drove to another store. There were only about 20 in front of the door there, so I went in and was able to get one pack of TP. They had a 2 item limit, but people were still grabbing and filling their carts with it.

If we can survive the panic, we'll be okay. Right now the panic is worse than the actual disease.

Now it’s 50. There was a picture of an Apostolic church in south Louisiana sent to me last night with a sign that said “No services until April 15th God Bless”

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Seems like a false flag. Only about 60 dead from it and they are closing EVERYTHING.

Possibilities.

1. Something is getting ready to come out that is really huge and they want a lot of distraction.

2. They are testing how far the media can go with propaganda in influencing our country.

3. Deep state is overthrowing the economy in the relentless struggle to overthrow Trump.

4. All 3 of the above.

Last but really not least maybe God is bringing down judgment on the Babylonian USA.

MTD - how about this possibility...

1. It is a real virus that has now crossed to humans.

2. It is a manipulated virus that escaped from a Chinese lab.

I strongly leaned to #1 at the beginning of this thing.
However, given the Chinese government response it appears they have something to hide.
So, I believe #2 is a real possibility.

Yes both are possible. Either way it SEEMS to me they have hyped it way out of proportion. I would like to see side by side comparison of it with the normal flu.

Interesting article. Death rate is less than the flu.

Sister Alvear,

My opinion is that this is about 10% truth, and about 90% premeditated and manufactured hysteria. I personally am not one bit afraid. I do believe that there is such thing as a corona virus. I THINK it is not nearly as dangerous as the common flu. So there is some truth for people to fasten to. And there will be massive amounts of fodder for conspiracy theorists to look back on and support their views.

When the panic starts, and it has, I don’t believe anybody knows where it will end. There will be massive amounts of money made, and much freedom voluntarily surrendered in the name of safety.

Eventually, uncommon sense, (read truth) will prevail. My guess would be that time will be about one month. By the time common sense kicks in, there will be untold damage done to our economy.

What I’m trying to say is, that in my opinion, the worst symptom of the corona virus, by far, is the irrational fear that it has caused.

Time will tell.
