I don't watch the news... Were you scared of ebola when there were two reported cases in the US too? Because at least that easily could have spread... Just cut back on your hobby of smearing yourself in rat shit and piss and you'll be fine. 🤪

News is pretty much fear mongering, that's their business. That's how they trick you into wasting your time on it, watch or die. 😂

In my real life, the worst shit I see is when people park on the line so they pretty much take up two parking spots, what is the world coming to?

Alot of people feared it actually just because your world didn't didn't mean it wasnt a big deal. Ebola could have spread just as much as west Nile virus did through mosquitoes. That's like life 101 news related or not crap can spread in the least expected way, It doesn't matter if just two people got it what matters is how it can eventually spread into masses.

Yes, I know that could have been a real problem (that's how I know about it, because even if I don't watch the news I let people be my news filter). Ebola was contagious people to people... This hansavirus is not, I haven't read up on it, and there seems to be a version that can be contagious person to person but it's not very likely to spread (I haven't read 20 words about it, ignorance really is bliss.)

the thing about viruses we don't know until it happens so people should have the right to fear them. That's just being smart about how the world works.

Yes, I think viruses are the greatest threat to our existence. From my "research" this doesn't seem to be the one to fear though.

Of course you and everyone else has a right to fear whatever you want. I'm just saying I'm not worried about it... If it ever reaches a fear amongst my real life filter I will reconsider.

I'm not saying be afraid every time you piss more often just acknowledge how bad it can get. You don't have to make fear mongering your life but keep an open mind about it.

I'll deal with it if it becomes a reality, how about that..? Or is my worrying preventing the virus from spreading somehow?
 
Like I said, keep an open mind about it and don't over fear.
I don't see what difference that does, I do think I have an open mind... If something like the Spanish flu came back I wouldn't laugh it off.

In this case and in most cases worrying is just a waste of time. I don't think I fear death that much either, if it's quick that's even better than your fallback guarantee.

Balance is key.
