>> An NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll taken March 13 and 14 showed a majority of Republicans, or 54 percent, now viewed the threat from coronavirus as being blown out of proportion, with only 40 percent believing it to be real Not sure of your inference from it. IMO, it is probably blown out of proportion, but that’s not to say we should do nothing. You seem to be suggesting there is no limit to the actions that should be taken, yet the true mortality rate is likely to be quite small. But we are reacting to it as though it were a nuclear attack. States ordering business to close being the most recent craze, which could bring a great deal of unintended negative consequences. California's schools closing until the next school year? Intelligent people can debate the issue of blown out of proportion vs. whether action taken is appropriate in the circumstances. It is crucial to remain level headed. I’m not sure the poll reflects level headed ness on the part of the Democrats. We should try to remain calm.
