According to CDC statistics, 2019 regular flu deaths were over 57,000 in USA--not a word about this in the media-
-Texas has 29 million people, 7 deaths from covid 19, and entire state shut down---makes no sense to me--i feel unnecessary panic has been created by media-
-of course the usual precautions are necessary to avoid catching covid 19, but TOTAL self-isolation not necessary, in my opinion-

Testing in the USA is up by a remarkable amount so we are making progress.
