Yeah.... I am so sorry for those poor individuals and their families, I will pray they Rest In Peace. But... six (6)!? In, about a month since it was identified? I don’t mean to belittle any human being’s death, but really? All this panic? I submit during that same time frame tens if not hundreds of thousands have died in my country from cancer, the flu, car accidents, heart attacks etc. Yes, we have to fight this virus, but please, we are far from the zombie apocalypse.

Seattle Times: (maybe a typo on the link heading stating 5...?)

... and a motel is being purchased to isolate the afflicted.
