It’s not like a flu; it’s more contagious and more deadly.
It can’t be contained like SARS; it evades screening and tests.
It’s not like 1918; we fly everywhere 
It’s not “safe outside
”
27 days to kill Li Wenliang; it’s a timebomb
It’s #2019-nCoV & it’s wrecking 2020

To be fair, the death of Liwenliang involves a lot of complicated reasons such as Chinese government trying to neglect the whole situation at the first few weeks. He shouldn't be dead. Most dead patients are older people.

To be fair, the chinese govt isn’t going to lock down 400MM people because some elderly are getting sick. Underplaying the severity of this is the real danger.

I'm not suggesting people to underplaying the severity. I'm simply saying don't make judgement based on the Liwenliang case because the information about his case is lacking outside Chinese internet.

We are also seeing multiple reports of people collapsing in the street, and now “cytokine storm” type effects, the very sort of thing that effects the young and strong. (possibly tilted to smokers)

I would take cautious making judgement on those videos, simply because these are not the videos I see around Chinese internet since Wuhan lockdown. I basically only trust things I see from Wechat, Douban, Weibo, passing around people.
