A quick search is showing that the regular flu kills more Americans in 2018 then the Corona virus worldwide wide so far. Yeah sounds like media hype.

You should buy me a beer to make up for it. Just not a Corona.
Yeah sure blame us for spending your money. You know you wanted to anyway!

Dr. Drew, who is part of the "media," slams the shit out of the media and it's fear mongering in regards to the coronavirus.

Well, this only makes sense, they media has to something to get ratings.

They are just about out of Trump material, and all of the Dem candidates are turds, so they don't want to focus too much on that. So what else is there...?

Oh, and just throwing this out so that I am officially on record... Beer that needs fruit added to make it palatable is not beer...

Once the media saw the market fall because of the virus, they pounced and raised the propaganda 10-fold. They know the only way that Trump loses is if our economy tanks, and they see the scare over the virus as the best opportunity for that to happen.

If you own an HPI Venture, you've been mentally prepared to handle parts shortages like this. Thanks HPI!

Kind of sad really. Just when HPI is attempting a rebound.... this situation could just be making it even tougher on them.

Unfortunate indeed, as they have started making progress. Hopefully this isn't a kick in the nuts that drops them.

Be cautious, don't freak out, however still a lot of unknowns about the virus currently.
