You nailed it, sir!
The COVID-19 (aka Corona Virus) crisis is real, but the severity is being overly played out by our politicians, and one might argue the governments are doing so to see just what they can get away with in terms our basic rights and freedoms.
The danger factor is put more in rational sense by this article: https://thehill.com/opinion/healthc...in-stop-the-panic-and-end-the-total-isolation
And do not get me going on the mainstream media - assholes who will do anything to keep a viewing audience. Look how CNN presented the stats:

The lock down has caused worse than the corona virus everywhere. I think every country sees how easily they can take freedoms away.
Italy, Spain and French and 6 other EU countries want all EU countries to pay what they lost with lockdown and treatment of sick. They don't want offered loan but free money and some have threatened to leave EU if they don't get the money for free. ;)
It's real for sure. But it seems it's just bad for the elderly or to very sick people. In my country very little amount of old and sick has died to it just like to other flus.
I personally think that just risk groups should be isolated, most businesses should be allowed to be open and others should be careful of it. Many cities have under 20 cases. Few big cities have almost all Corona cases and almost all immigrants.
I just read from newspaper 2 days ago my countries policy about Corona testing and care. It said that people should only go to hospital (where all health care is) if they have so serious acute corona symptoms that they need hospital care (40 celcius fever or trouble breathing usually need hospital care) or if they have strong Corona symptoms and have traveled to other country during the outbrake or has been in contact with person with confirmed Corona virus.
Before that people (adults) were told to go to doctor if they had flu for one week or if they felt really sick since there are antibiotics to most flus that came from bacterias and viral meds to some virus infections. But if person has clear Corona symptoms then better not go to doctor unless you are so sick you need hospital care. It makes sense since there is no treatment for Corona so why bother (if symptoms are clearly Corona symptoms) but the stats of my country are so not real. Every mild or average Corona infection goes unnoticed without any testing or visits to doctor except in case of children, risk groups or people who work in health care or care for risk groups. So of course it seems more deadly than other flus if only critical cases gets counted. Some countries representatives have criticized my countries ways in public media. But my country use money to other things than testing and pointless doctor's visit.
It's treated as stomach flu when people are adviced to not go to doctor to spread it and try manage it at home unless they really need IV. Also nurses and doctors can then write notice to employees for paid sick leave without seeing the patient and after just chatting by phone.
Only 6% Of Actual Coronavirus Cases Detected Worldwide, Researchers Estimate
The actual number of cases may actually be in the tens of millions, according to the report.

Happily some researches get that testing just really sick can't tell how many have the virus. Any flu would be seen really dangerous and deadly the same way.
